Yeah, I don't think I noticed anything different either, although I am typically clueless until a broken part is in my hand!!!

Was there during lunch. I had to move my car closer to the charger since the cable was so stiff.

I've done a lot of winter Supercharging on my Chicago trips and believe the cold weather is a big factor. Same sites I use in the summer are a lot more flexible. What I do is use two hands to sort of pull and shape the cable by bending it such that the wand will go straight into the port without putting sideways stress on it.
Could also be because it is brand new and the cables haven't been flexed and loosened up by users yet.
To me, no different than any other Supercharger in the cold.

are we even sure these are lower power yet? There was some suggestion that these are real deal superchargers in urban supercharger clothing. Not sure I've seen confirmation of that either way.
What's the theoretical max power, 70 or 72 kw?
I checked a while back. It says right on them: max 200A.

I stopped by last night and I met @skhenry81 at this location and there’s were a handful of other S and X’s there checking out the new digs. My family decided to go into Sherway to walk around and I noticed they are adding a new Tesla store (in the newest area of the mall).
Pretty cool to see the continued expansion. I would imagine they may add some HPWC to the mall if Sherway is going to become like Yorkdale.

Charged there twice today. Impressive. 20 spots and about 6-8 teslas there most of the time.
Got a steady 72 kw power most of the time I was connected up until I got close to 'full'.
No wavering, just a steady 72 kw and 365-375 km/h charge speed.

Hey everyone,
Can anyone confirm when Tesla will start charging money for these superchargers? I haven't kept up with any news regarding their plan to charge model 3 owners. Just wondering because this will have to be my go to chargers every week when I get the 3. My job and home don't accommodate EV charging. Please let me know if you heard anything. I'm thinking that if they will have a store here at Sherway, perhaps they'll entertain free supercharging for a while (here's to hoping anyway)
Thanks!

Based on what the "Tesla Model 3 Road Trip" guy (You You Xue) experienced while touring you're more than likely you'll be billed from the get go. Model S and X only get waived fees if they've managed to get a referral.
That's probably perfect for someone who shops there - the checkout line takes hours to get through!

Although getting an ice cream or some Swedish meatballs makes it more palatable!
