Reddy did not jinx it, still digging today…

Looks like digging is done and wires pulled. Just need the transformer pad and transformer.

Tesla signs mounted inside.

inch by inch they keep moving. still have to pull a lot of secondaries after the pad base is mounted.

I wonder if this is the longest it has ever taken Tesla to secure and build out a charging site. Even Fairfax was done quicker. I laugh about this thinking back. I bought my first S five years ago when they said they were building this site.

Transformer installed, meter still off.

 

[Zhup]

Meter is on, but stalls still dark

Come one, come all. They are live!

 

[vdiv]

Ah! Much nicer when the stalls are all lit in that cave

 

[Zhup]

That's very good news... just open the last day before the end of Q2

No problem at all. I am in the parking spot lines in this photo.

How did the backward pedestals work out?

Noticeably awkward but works just fine.

Already have 5 dead after 2 days…

Boy I hope the guys didn't wire them backwards and failing as soon as someone plugs in. probably not though.

I wonder if Tesla actually commissioned the site? Poor QC on this on.
