Apparently this Supercharger does bill Model 3's for charging. Unlike other Superchargers, the charge (transaction) doesn't show up on the center screen which is why I thought I hadn't been billed. I checked my account on Tesla.com and they did charge me. No big deal, I'm happy to pay for whatever I use but I just wanted to correct my earlier post. It's strange because it's been 2 weeks and on the center screen in the car it still shows my last billed charge from a different Supercharger which occurred prior to stopping at Warsaw.

Supercharger - Warsaw, NC (closed)

I noticed that I-40 was closed right at the Wallace supercharger exit, but that was a couple days ago. From what I'm hearing I doubt it's opened up yet.
I do know that many superchargers in hurricane/flooding prone areas are specially built to withstand them. Columbus, Texas has the cabinets put on a platform so even when it flooded after Harvey the supercharger worked fine. I was in Houston area and the Florida Keys less than a week after the hurricanes last year and all of the superchargers were working, even the one at the Marathon, FL (they put it at the airport which was smart as it was built on higher ground) and Victoria, TX where the host hotel still has not re-opened a year later.

I have used this SC a few times the past 2 weeks and it's open and working well.
I find it pretty priceless for getting back to ILM from Raleigh some times.

I used both the Warsaw (behind McDonald's and not on Tesla Map) and the Wallace (Mad Boar) Superchargers and they both worked perfectly this week.
For anyone passing through, I stopped here last night and was getting a peak rate of 118 kW on stall 1A so it's working great.
Just to let everyone know I stopped by here in my model 3 Saturday May 11th 2019. I was pulling 141 kW and 500 mi/hr. I was billed on Tesla.com though even though like others have said it didn't show up on my model 3 screen.
Just wanted to drop a note... I stopped here very late on Thursday night and got 145 kW charge. It is still working great. Hotel parking lot was almost full but no ICEing in the stalls which was a nice bonus.
As a side note, I took my daughter horseback riding in Rocky Point, NC (near Hampstead) and the owner of the farm was very interested in our Model 3. It was the first Tesla he had ever seen in person. He seemed very interested/open to buying an electric pickup. He currently has 2 F-350's for transporting his horse trailers. I mentioned the Tesla pickup unveiling next month. Interesting that even with zero advertising and him never seeing one on the road I was surprised of how aware he was of the brand. Pretty cool.

Shoot, I went through there tonight (driving my truck) but did not stop to check.

it's a parking lot now, confirmed by other locals with photos. Wallace NC is where you want to go, not here
