Saw final 2 stalls installed. Still power? Tubes sticking out. Maybe later this week. Ran and snow for 2 days.

Keep your powder dry, boys. It could still take months to actually get activated. I've seen it happen all too many times.

Leaving Wednesday afternoon. Killing me to be so close to being able to make the trip in my MR3. I guess I’ll start hoping for my July trip.

Aww I had missed the replies to this thread since Thursday! I drove by on my way home last night and snagged these pictures. All of the stalls look installed (and shiny new)

2/27 (Thursday). Looks like the chargers are installed. No power from the source yet. Getting closer!!

Can you see where the transformer is? Is there an empty slab?

 

[swaltner]

The transformer will get installed on the slab between the Emporia West Plaza sign and the first bit of Tesla equipment in the background. The pad is visible in the pictures posted in #107. If you enlarge the images, you can see the pipes sticking out of the ground in post #152 as well. This site won't get powered up until the transformer that is likely a 5' green cube gets installed there.

Patience young grasshopper....

Stopped by today. Took a picture of the pad for the transformer. Looks like that's the main thing left to be done. 6

No change in status from pcwiz49 update. Still waiting for the final touches.

Just made it from KC to southeast of Wichita with 4% left on a Model 3 LR AWD, this can't get done soon enough.

Just made it from KC to southeast of Wichita with 4% left on a Model 3 LR AWD, this can't get done soon enough.

Not to be a bother, but I'm about to get this model and will be making this drive a lot. Do you mind sharing roughly what part of KC you left from (or just a rough estimate of total miles), SoC when you left and if you went over the speed limit?

Getting from KC to SE Wichita is what, 200 miles? To get there on 4% assuming the weather was like ~55 is scary from an efficiency perspective.
