This is today's pic. New cement pedestals going in around riser. A lot of PVC & cement debris beyond this view.

As of 2day: 8/12 converted to v3, similar look but taller only because of new concrete base platform.
I can't wait to not charge @250kW with my dinosaur

Does this mean the four older V2 chargers are operational? I’ll be there Thursday for a factory tour and was hoping to charge for a bit while there.

Blocked off, don't count on it, but check your MCU and see if this site has service. You might get lucky.

Main computer unit, meaning the display screen. They’re saying to check the Fremont supercharger location on your navigation screen to see how many, if any stations are free.

I think those are for employees who are there for an 8 hour shift. Please don’t occupy those chargers for hours, the employees deserve them.

There is a Fremont Supercharger at the Target nearby. You will not run out of juice. I do wonder how many v3 chargers they will be able to put before it becomes a mad crush of cars going in and out. Right now, it takes a minute or six to finish charging, so a polite line forms and we wait our turn, but the turn over is going to be much greater. Perhaps not a big deal for 8 v3's. What about 16?
The idea was to turn over more cars, but I wonder if they are going to have to start making them split across the parking lot so they don't all have the same bottleneck entrance.

I was just there Monday. The destination chargers are there but there are signs all over that says for test drive vehicles only. And mostly occupied with a car parked in front. From what I can tell there’s no public charging available by the Sales center / Tour entrance.
I self parked. Maybe valet can charge your car for you? I didn’t ask.

8/12 stations maybe very close to operation. Cable is definitely smaller diameter (as reported), but not longer.
I got yelled at for snooping around and trying to photo the open back-sides......

That's a shame. I would really like to see what's under the covers of the V3 pedestals. It must contain the cooling unit for the cable, but I don't see any obvious vents.8/12 stations maybe very close to operation. Cable is definitely smaller diameter (as reported), but not longer.

Saw testing M3's on V3's. Four V2 units have V2 labels now, short pedestals/cabinet & thick cables are them.
@BigMskiman thanks for posting that photo, first time I’ve seen a picture of a V3 and V2 Supercharger pedestal side-by-side. I wonder why the concrete stand for the V3 pedestal is taller?
Maybe to keep us guessing and ask questions like that. If I worked for Tesla I'd be strongly tempted to do changes like this just to mess with people. But that's just me.
