Nice you must live close too. Cheers to finally having a supercharger on i75! It’s long overdue !

Looking forward to the opening. Great spot.

Has anyone been by today? I was there Monday and it was a ghost town. No workers on site by 5 pm. Wondering if we will get an opening this week

My two cents is patience is likely in order. The photos suggest this site is to the stage where completing is heavily dependent upon the local electrical utility to install the transformer, meter, and complete the electrical hook-up to grid. That's largely outside the control of Tesla or the construction company that Tesla has contracted for the site. The other thing that could complicate that at the moment is the unfortunate situation in Florida and SE due to the recent hurricane. Electrical crews tend to be brought in from across the country to help out in these situations. I have no visibility to whether the local utility in this area has deployed any of their crews to Florida to assist, but that can create situations where projects like this sit on hold for a period of time as the local utility focuses their remaining crews on most critical work and new construction projects like this can get delayed.

As with construction of all superchargers, they each go by their own timeline, sometimes we're surprised by some the just pop up out of nowhere, and others seem to go into super slow motion. In all cases it will be online when it's online. Patience, grasshopper!

Pulling cables from cabinets to stalls today. Also empty spot on the far side of cabinets, likely for a Duke transformer.

More cable work today. Looked like they were running it under the street to the corner by the gas station.

Here now, it’s still not open but it looks extraordinary close.

 

[captainb8]

Cabinets getting wired up today. Parking signs also installed.

 

[captainb8]

Cabinets back together. Appears there's still work to be done on the corner by the gas station. Cables just laying there.

Did you ask them how close they are?

 

[tesluv108]

I got excited because there are no barriers up, but the chargers do not work.

Did you ask them how close they are?

Didn't ask.

 

[tesluv108]

Was there again today 11/2, chargers are still not active

 

[tesluv108]

I got iced by a Honda ondessy owner that wants a Tesla. Regardless , I should have taken a picture to show you. The chargers still don’t work

Is there a meter on site yet? if so, does the meter have power? Its usually near the Tesla cabinets or the transformer.

 

[PCMc]

another key visual clue is if the logos on the pedestals are illuminated. If not, then no power to the stalls.

Even if meter is in place, it’s very possible that Tesla is waiting on the local utility to finish their connections, or could be waiting on local code inspection before Tesla can commission. Timeline for those two steps is largely outside of Tesla’s control (or the control of the construction project management firm which Tesla is using).

Still no power as of this evening (11/14)
