That one now also needs to go in the "Restricted Sites" thread as there is a parking charge!

Will get it added there. Also, any idea how to get it updated with this information on supercharge.info map - I note there forum link directs to here, so will they pick it up from the Restricted Sites thread?

Gretna Services progress. Surely not long now 
Can someone who knows clever stuff confirm these are V3?

Yes they are - the single CCS cable is the giveaway.
Thanks. There are plenty of other chargers now at Gretna Services, but I was fearful that the Tesla ones would be open to non-Tesla vehicles. To have a dozen stalls there is going to feel like Christmas has come. Hopefully

I wonder if the 4 old V2 stalls will eventually be replaced with V3 ones: four charger cabinets is enough to support 16 V3 stalls.Thanks.

Might be useful to retain those V2s in case you want to nip off to get married while charging and not incur idle fees

At the moment we don't add pay to parking restrictions to supercharge,info map. This may change in the future but there are probably 1000+ like this in the world and keeping on top of them can be a nightmare and a simple pay to park flag might just be too simplest for loads of cases (pay but x time free if registering, etc) as seen in that restricted sites threads.
I'm sure we will look at that thread for information if/when we add more parking restriction functionality to the map.
BTW I added this one and another to that restricted parking wiki list it hasn't seemed to have been updated for ages and loads still missing from that list.
Certainly having incomplete or out-of-date info can be much worse than useless.
I recently parked/charged at a Source London point in Barnet tube station carpark. There was no signage, and Source London' website is useless - it says that most of their locations parking is included, but at off-street locations parking fees "may apply". So I checked ZapMap - entry says "Parking is included in charging fees". So I didn't pay for the parking.
£60 penalty notice and in rejecting my appeal (quoting ZapMap) they tell me that "the signage on site clearly states that you get 1-hour free charging." Well, for some definition of "clearly".
And to add insult to injury, when I decided to pay up for an easy life rather than challenging it further, they charged my card for the fee twice!
I was at Medway East services yesterday, didn't need to charge but the Superchargers look ready to go. There are also another 12 Gridserve chargers that are all powered on with the LCD screens on but are cordoned off for the moment...

Apparently the wires were stolen from a large quantity of SuCs at Grantham over the weekend, anyone able to confirm or deny?
Be interested to how quickly this gets resolved if it is true.

Sadly too true. Don't have to pay tax on dirty money.
I reckon they should put a "trickle" through the shielding, give them a nasty shock the minute their snippers pierce the rubber. I know the science doesn't work, but there is going to need to be a solution somewhere along the line.
I could be wrong but I saw somewhere that the v4 chargers don’t contain as much copper and therefore not attractive enough to be stolen.
