Depends what you mean by support. The V3 cabinets are what feed the Semi Megachargers and the DC Bus Link voltage of 880-1000V is a strong indicator that the hardware can output 1000V.
Whether it's enabled is a different issue.

I co-founded a startup once a long time ago that got venture-backed. It's easier to grow users when you give a great/good product for cheap/free, but with very high operational cost with not enough revenue coming in. When you do get users, the tough part is to get them engaged and NOT churn out of being paying customers while keeping a significant LTV with those engaged/paying customers. Meanwhile, this also requires (for a well run business) to keep costs to keep those customer as low as possible (which is insanely difficult in R&D spend usually unless you cut corners in customer service).
Tesla's growth at such a late-stage with hardware AND software products/services reminds me of no one doing this well...that is, keeping customers happy enough to get others to buy Tesla products and to stay and be value+ customers while keeping the operations cost so low in high growth.

The configurator probably shows specs and pricing. Where are the posts?

Maybe NDA? Maybe he's one of the customers who will be at the delivery event.

Unfortunately the laughing emojis in reply makes it more likely this is a joke:
Oddly enough, chose the same day as this person on Facebook to post this, though:
Tesla Energy FTW. Energy > Autos some day?
Over the past month, Tesla has secured contracts worth a combined $1.3 billion for its Megapack stationary storage battery product. And this figure only includes the ones we know/I've tweeted about. There are likely more that haven't been publicly disclosed yet.

(Old enough to remember when a tweet from someone with a blue checkmark was a legitimate source of news. Sigh. That platform is useless now)
But the configuration actually going live shouldn’t be too far away though, but will presumably only happen at or after the promised launch event, which hopefully will also introduce the new model 3.
This makes me feel more positive about the future of human civilization. Sending good vibes.

From the 10Q, we can see that Tesla paid about $76m for Wiferion. Doesn't seem like much money.

... so given 600 KW charging at 3C, I reckon Cybertruck's NMC pack capacity is 200 KWh
Cheers!

You might want to ask @MP3Mike for a 2nd opinion on that. I think IRA rules for China-sourcing of batteries only applies to the EV side, not to the stationary storage side.
Futher, the USA needs two (2) plants the size of Lathrop running at 80GWh/yr to even meet current demand. What was that again? ... "quasi-infinite".
This article is interesting:-
The IRA and the US Battery Supply Chain: Background and Key Drivers - Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia University SIPA | CGEP
This commentary addresses the economics of the battery supply chain, who controls its key components, and, most importantly, how the IRA changes the position of the US in the global battery market.
www.energypolicy.columbia.edu
As far as I can tell from a quick search IRA rules for raw materials sourcing may only apply to EV batteries.
Regardless, import duties probably need to be paid on imported LFP when the final product is sold in the US.
Cell production credits apply to cells regardless of the final product type.
Energy storage battery projects get this additional credit:-

1st clue that this was a hoax should have been when a UK-based CT reservation holder gets an early delivery. UK, Euope, Asia, OZ (and even likely Canada) will all have to wait. It's the IRA battery production tax credit, you know. I estimate the Gov't will toss around $45 * 200 = $9K at Tesla for each CT they sell in the USA. Now that's in addition to the Federal and State incentives that the purchaser gets in the USA. There might be 10 years worth of backlog for CT for this spec. Europe and Asia may have to wait for their own factories before they get this vehicle.

If the Exoskeleton was abandoned, can we still hit it with a hammer? I would imagine the extra framing weight could be offset by thinner outer shell, but I hope not.
