I charged there last night and was getting over 100kw on the first charger I parked at. 2 or 3 others were charging as well, so everything seemed to be in working order.

Thanks for the report! We'll be driving through this coming Sunday. Last time we went to the Louisville SC mid-day near a holiday, it was rather busy. We only received 66kW, and had to wait a bit to get that. If they can pull off commissioning before the 4th of July, that'd be great.

Awesome news, we should have our MY by Aug and already have a trip planned from southern IL to southern MD vis I-64 for my granddaughter's 5th B-day but that stretch from Mt Vernon IL to this SC is close to 200 miles and this being a V3 will shorten my stop considerably.
I hope Tesla fills that gap from Mt Vernon to/from Elberfeld/Haubstadt soon as that would ease concerns about making this trip in the dead of winter. Which we do for our Christmas holiday trip and again in Jan for grandson's B-day.

Perfect timing for our road trip on Sunday. Thanks everyone for the field reports. This will be my first V3 charging session.

It wasn't in the Navigator this afternoon, so we went to the (overloaded) existing Louisville Supercharger.

We were alone at 8:30. Traffic picked up. There were three others there when we left about 9:30.

It's listed as open on Tesla's Supercharger list. We'll see if the car sends us that way. It's going to be about 93ºF when I'm charging, so I'll see if that impacts peak power. Should be rolling in with 10-15% SoC.

Not sure of the extra time it will take for people traveling south. tap tap tap
OK just did this simply Google maps test.
[update: as pointed out this time diff may not matter with a 150 kW shared pedestal vs 250 kW dedicated. I've only seen 160 kW in my '17 X but the point is still made if the supercharge is busy]

But how much time do you save when you get 250kw instead of 150kw ( or 50kw if it is busy and you have share a pair)Not sure of the extra time it will take for people traveling south. tap tap tap

Absolutely. Right now I’m charging on Gardiner Lane. My max for this session has been 53 kW. Granted I started sharing (I arrived second) at 22 kW.
My screen says one stall is out of service, but more is going on here. Two, at least, are out and others charging at reduced rates.

We get our MY on Sat and have a trip planned in Sept from our home in southern IL heading to southern MD via I-64. That gap between Mt Vernon and Louisville is 197 miles but is 6 miles off I-64, I'll be rolling in at a low SOC and can take advantage of the V3 speeds, but that 12 miles to/from I-64 is probably another 20 minutes. Guess I shortstop my charge there due to V3 and charge enough to get to Lexington. But our destination is a hotel in Barboursville WVA that has destination chargers (200 miles from that SC). Or I can use this stop as our lunch break and charge to 90% so we can make it to our hotel nonstop. Looking forward to our first road trip in our MY.

All the entrances to the Meijer’s lot were blocked by semi trailers, except for one that was partially blocked with a guy sitting in a pick up. I just blew by him to charge, but it looks like they might be getting ready to pave or something that’s going to take this offline temporarily.
