Yeah, it is just you. Most of us males do have some level of standards.
. (Note, I have only been to Quartzsite once, but it was NOT a “treat”, and my wife said never again, if we can avoid it.)

Website updated, looks like number is now 36 (presumably the pallets have gone? Making it 8x 150 kW, 28 x 250 kW)

I know that, but what I mean is have they really built up the SC start to finish that quickly?

Oh yeah I get what you mean now. Yeah I was surprised as well! I think there was an earlier post saying that they were just putting down gravel road base for now, so perhaps all the bitumen/line markings will come later? Still they've done a good job to get all the electrical work done so quickly.

Finally, one of us males has stated what probably many of us were thinking.
If it is a number 2 issue, then that is another story.

Anyone know if they are planning on keeping all the old stalls - even the Urban ones that seemed like a temporary stop-gap?
Lots of people love hanging out in Quartzite as long as possible and the V3 chargers may rob people of the full experience...ahh the good ole' days!

There is still a lot of work to do. I tried 4 stalls and none would charge. Red. Hooked up to an urban and it’s charging at 46kWh. My guess is that there are only a few working? if any? today 7/11/2020. It’s 120° here at 6:50 pm. Sure could use some shade. Solar panels??

Soooooo, 37 of 43 were not working yesterday. Here’s the thing... which ARE the ones that were working??? The working ones weren’t identified. I laughed as went to four that weren’t working; I arrived with very little mileage so it was a guessing game. A 120° GUESSING GAME. ha! I took it in stride. I’ve been driving Tesla for 7 years 4 months loving every minute of it. The ordeal reminded me of calling this Carl’s Jr. 6 ½ years ago and asking an employee to take first photos of the original construction and message them to me. Fond memory at this point. ....... . BTW it’s a bit colder supercharging in Iceland in January than Quartzite in July!!! May global supercharging construction continue rapidly!

"Under 20 minutes" and Quartzsite go together perfectly!
Just stopped by there. It's marked as closed but the old site works. The new site is done and the plugs have power (some are lit, all of them have the Fans blowing) but it doesn't start charging.

Nice drone footage - while you were in the air, did you happen to check out the rocks across the street to the north? I think some footage there would be cool. Plus, what type of chargers are over at Carl Jrs that look like mini outhouses? Kudos to Carl J's for supporting charging stations, even if their bathrooms are not up to standards (i'll bet they beat the ones at the trail head to the Havasupai Village/ Havasupai Falls though).
