Supercharger - Lynchburg, VA

[swengl]

As of Friday, no change in the site. They are still waiting for the both the cabinets and the pedestals to arrive.

 

[swengl]

No visible progress today, but there was a construction crew there this evening (around 6:45 p.m.) looking over the pad where the cabinets will sit, so here's hoping that the cabinets are delivered in the next few days for installation.

Update: Went by this morning and the electricians have installed some (most?) of the wiring. Not a huge amount of progress, but progress indeed!

I’m looking forward to it now since I picked up the “X” on Friday, I am realizing just how slow home charging is and the car came with free supercharging. Sheetz, here we come.

How are you enjoying your X? I am thinking of purchasing one, just got a model 3 but very impressed with the looks and function of the X. And I like the free supercharging idea.

Thanks

I could not be happier. It does everything as advertised and more. Let me know if you want to give it a try. I put the black 22 rims on yesterday and painted the brake calipers red.

So does this confirm that these will be V3 chargers?

you would need to see the cabinet to know that. wiring ducts probably aren't the easiest way to tell

Two charger cabinets for 8 pedestals implies V3, yes.

No visible changes as of Saturday morning.

I doubt that Lynchburg, Salem, or Madison VA will get V3 chargers, here's why: Tesla to install a Supercharger V3 station in Florida

I'm not saying that I don't WANT V3 chargers, it just seems unlikely (due to the relatively low amount of traffic that these chargers will get) that Tesla will prioritize them with V3.

WOW! Looks like we will be getting a V3: Tesla is accelerating Supercharger deployment, 10 more V3 stations confirmed - Electrek

Lynchburg is definitely V3 based on the conduit layout shown here.

That, and the confirmation in the article I posted

Yes, the article reporting what’s on supercharge.info, which is crowdsourced data from this very forum. We’ve come full circle.

This is great news! What is a charging desert right now is about to go full on V3! Very happy to hear about this and look forward to using it.

Although I will probably still stay at the Craddock, what a great addition to Lynchburg!

Stopped by the site yesterday, no visible progress has been made.

Heading to Lynchburg this weekend for some Blue Ridge carving and possibly some camping. Has there been any progress since Monday on the Sheetz Superchargers?

Stopped by this morning, no change.
