Either they just fixed the (database backing the) mobile app, or something is out of sync. 1A shows as OOO on my mobile app.
It's strange enough that the mobile app and in-car nav are using different data sources

No details other than it needs utility work before it can be commissioned. Unclear if this is waiting on the utility itself, or perhaps the property owner (paperwork of some kind that would give permission for the utility work).

The marker at @supercharge.info is not at the exact location. The correct location is 44.0427924,-71.6672566.
The V3 stalks are unwrapped, but dark (and no numbers on them). On a quick look there was no evidence of progress in the transformer area.
The V2 side is busy, of course. Stall 3B wouldn't charge for me, I was told other people had trouble with it. Rather than hang around I drove down to Thornton where a Model Y and I are the only chargers

I was there on April 7th, the Sunday before the eclipse, and of course it was backed up. The 3rd from the left charger (3B?) was out of order even though the car and app showed 6 chargers on-line and the 4 V3 stalls were not working. There were a steady stream of new arrivals who all tried to access the V3 and 3B chargers until they were waved off by those charging. Tesla needs something like red/green status lights on their chargers to avoid this confusion.
The V3 stalls are now numbered. Over in the transformer area - where the trench for the primary conduit goes - in the place where I think the primary conduit comes up, there's now a meter, and the meter is powered. What's confusing is that there's no evidence of a new transformer, the transformer nearby has been there for months. However, the V3 stalls were not lit up and the app still describes the site as 6 chargers up to 150 kW (I.e. just the pre-existing V2 superchargers).
(For some reason I can't attach images to this update, I'll try again later.)

In my conversation with the Tesla Charging team members while at Lawrence, MA finishing things up there yesterday they indicated they were headed up to Lincoln, NH to commission the expansion this coming week (5/6-10). It will be great to see this one done!

About 18 months ago Tesla quietly improved the Lexington KY site, it was originally 8 V2 stalls when they added 12 new V3 and StarLink. BINGO we have a 20-stall station. This was taken on Dec 27th, 2023 on our way home. Since then we have visited that site two more times and there has NEVER been any congestion. In fact, often I saw more cars on the V2s than 3s.
The 8 on the left are the V2 and the 12 on the right are V3. If this is what Elon has planned going forward we'll be fine. And going forward just adding some V4 chargers to an existing site seems the way to go.
We leave tomorrow on another road trip and plan on taking notes at each stop. Just to check the current "state of affairs" of the network given all the drama lately.

Twice as much fun
Does anyone know if Tesla will allow other NACS vehicles (e.g. Rivian) to charge here at the 4 new V3 chargers, or will they still be limited to Tesla-only? Wonder if this will be the case at any site that gets additional new V3/V4 chargers but still have some older V2 chargers in place...
At this point, I would be pretty sure that charging non-Tesla vehicles at this v3 4 post expansion will not currently work. It's hard to say if Tesla will enable this expansion in the future - that will likely require hardware upgrades to the posts and supercharger cabinet itself to do. The Tesla Charging team did that work to many v3 superchargers across the country late last year and into early this year in preparation for opening up the network. The sites that had that hardware update and Tesla chose to open up are listed on the findus page with the NACS icon when that option is enabled in the display filter as noted below. Thornton and North Conway are both enabled.
