Thank you for sharing! I’ll hopefully have a chance to give this Meriden V3 location a try tomorrow, for @EliBurton_ aka Starman!

Wow! That's awesome. That confirms it is a v3.I’m here this morning on my way to Greenwich from Boston. Incredibly convenient to where 91 and the parkway (15) meet.
Approaching ~200kW with about 7 minutes of preconditioning en route. Ignore my set charge limit.

Can you get there without sitting in the perennial traffic jam on I-91 S leading to exit 17/Wilbur Cross Parkway?I’m here this morning on my way to Greenwich from Boston.

Thanks. That looks like a good option. Exit 18->Baldwin Ave->Bee St->East Main St. I'll try that the next time I visit my parents.Unfortunately not entirely. One still has to take the exit for the Wilbur, but the exit for the supercharger forks off from that.
Maybe if one tries exit 19 for Baldwin ave to Gravel street. I’d give that a shot if it’s particularly bad.
It seems that roughly 195 kW is as high as this location gets during these early days, with plastic bags covering several of the V3 chargers when I was there at 11:05pm on Feb 20, along with 3 other Teslas. Admittedly it was cold but my battery was warm with full regen.Wow! That's awesome. That confirms it is a v3.

150 kW cap seen in Fairfield Northbound I-95 North at the new V3 earlier the same evening, but it had warning of service issue, details:
Supercharger - Fairfield
I wonder if any V3 Superchargers in CT have seen charge rates over 200 kW yet, even if only briefly. Will also be interesting to see how much-colder V3 Supercharging goes for these adventuresome Canadians:

Thank you for sharing the information.I got 206 kW at Fairfield, CT back on January 3rd at 14% SOC.
Thank you for the reply! Would you happen to have any pictures, screenshots, or TeslaFi stats from that cJan 3 2020 V3 charging session? If you, you'll be the first person to share a documented V3 Supercharge in the Northeastern US.I got 206 kW at Fairfield, CT back on January 3rd at 14% SOC.

When I was there on Thu Feb 27 2020, I noticed that at least one station that used to have a bag over it still didn't work, so moved further toward the exit and it was operational.I ate lunch inside, and the polite Dunkin' staff mentioned that it's gotten busier during mid-day when folks are charging at this new Tesla Supercharger location. She also mentioned that this Dunkin's drive-thru is open 24x7, but the bathroom is inside, so I think it was after 10pm that you'll need to walk to some other bathroom nearby, perhaps the gas station.
