I stopped by on Saturday 4/27, and they still had the cones in front of each of the stalls, as shown in the pictures above.

Just stopped by today to check on the progress…Quite the hodge podge of DC fast charge with 8 Tesla Supercharger stalls (split 5+3) and 3-4 EVgo fast charge going in at the same time. Never seen this configuration, but more the merrier, I guess.

Just a minor update on progress...Stopped by yesterday (Tuesday) for lunch and to see if any movement had been made...Everything is still as it was last week...Looks like the primary disconnect is still off, and there is no power to the meter. More updates as and when things change.

Meter installed, but not powered up...

Friday update...Meter installed...PECO inspecting the transformer as I type!!! Despite all the other headwinds, we have to be getting close!

Ok...a little progress to report...I stopped by at lunch today, and it looked like our installer friends from NY were back at it. They were working inside the transformer and appeared to be working in the meter housing, as well. Nothing definitive, but more than I expected.

Stopped by for lunch today, and all was unchanged, so...yeah.

As promised...pictures of the aforementioned pedestal covers.

Friday update...They added “Tesla Coming Soon” covers time the pedestals (for some reason). Yet, still cardboard where the meter should be. Pictures on Monday.

Deepest apologies if this question has already been asked/answered, but why don't the total number of stalls and the available number of stalls show up in the in-car navigation/app (e.g. 9 / 10 stalls available)? I found the same phenomenon for the newly opened V3 site in Ocean City, MD...Is...

Still only potential energy...<sigh>.

Like many of you, I am thrilled that this reset functionality is back in our lives, although I have come across another oddity. I recently swapped wheels (without recording the old Gen 1 sensor ids). I bought new, programmed Autel TPMS sensors from a forum member, and brought them to my local...

I have a '14 Model S, and agree that the ability to read text messages is fantastic. Am I missing something, though...How do I reply to a message or initiate a new one? I can't seem to make that part work.

Just a quick one...Looks like we now have a housing for the utility meter (with the opening blocked off with cardboard). Getting there...

I would never want to call out a specific entity for the delay, but I stopped by today and there was only one missing piece I could find...a utility meter.

You may have a cheaper option with some help from @SomeJoe7777 and your local tire shop to swap in some pre-programmed, aftermarket TPMS sensors, even for the Gen 1 systems. Seemed to work for me, if you want to save a few $'s. I am sure @SomeJoe7777 will explain more, otherwise take a look at...

Ha...Guilty! Definitely a lot of excitement, so I hope that you understand the source of the extra attention. Fascinating to see/document how one of these comes together. I tried my best to keep people out of the pictures and focus on the install. You guys did a great job...A ton of work in...

Isn’t it beautiful! ...and now we wait...

You don't even need to leave the house to get one...Just point and click! 4' 14-50 Power Pigtail

But wait...There’s more...Pedestals!!! Actual pedestals have been wired in since this morning. Pictures to come...

Good question...In general, 2 cabinets for 8 stalls = V3 (which is the configuration for this site)...but I have been known to be wrong.

As promised, here are a couple of quick pictures. We have official signage, painted posts, as well as a lot of activity wiring the cabinets.

Cabinets!!! We have cabinets installed (2 of them). Pictures tomorrow, but lots of progress since just yesterday.

I can't seem to find the Amazon link you referenced, but your situation sounds like the reason they made this: Dryer Buddy I have no affiliation with the company, nor any experience with the product, but might be worth looking into.

Interesting...I am going through the same debate re: upgrading to the Conti with my ‘14 S85. The quote I just got from Tesla was ~$750 and did include install of the new sensors. Even still, not sure I will pull the trigger on that one just yet. Current plan is to get a set of dual frequency...

I am putting this to the test, as we speak: 1. Entered the service appointment request with the TPMS issue 2. Ranger service scheduled for Monday morning 3. Upon further review by Tesla, I will need to come to the Service Center (for the same time on Monday morning). The virtual service team...

Sold.

Selling the 19" Tesla Model S Base Wheels that came with my recent private party purchase. 2 of the wheels have a bit of curb rash, but the other 2 are fairly clean. Perfect for use for a set of snow tires or as spares. Wheels come with tires that have a bit of tread left (not yet at the wear...

Progress is slow...Stopped by this afternoon, and they were pulling cable from the panel/disconnect to the cabinet pad. Not a lot to see, but definitely progress.

2013 Tesla Model S Performance

I might be interested in your wheels/tires...It is hard to tell from the pictures, but how much tread is left on the tires? Thanks!

Actually, that big storage container that looks like it is parked in the spot closest to where the cabinets will go was not there yesterday at noon, so there could be hope for some progress soon.

You beat me to the comment on Tyson’s Galleria...8 glorious HPWC’s!!! it was so wonderful, I even took a picture ***Picture Not of King of Prussia (but they should take the hint)***

My 2014 Model S does not have turn-by-turn, so I am very interested to see if anyone is successful in getting it added/activated. Interestingly, I checked to see if my software was up to date and suddenly saw that it was trying to update my Navigation Data!?!?!? Again, you can see from the...

Nice! Transformer is in pace...We are making progress!!!

Ok...Quick update on the site progress. Here is the concrete pad for the cabinets and the adjacent panel/boxes/disconnect. Again, you can see the 2 bundles of conduit stubbed up. Other than that, just putting back the dirt that was dug out for conduit runs .

Bensalem Wawa...V3...It is happening! It's not KoP, but still counts as SE PA. I need to get better photos from this week, but they poured concrete for the pad/pedestals today...Keeping a running log here in another thread.

Great catch on the metal form...That’s exactly what it is. i stopped by today, but the electricians were actively wiring up the panel and disconnect in the box that is off to the side, so I couldn’t get a picture. They did pour concrete...All 8 pedestal bases were poured, as well as the pad...

I was thinking the same thing re: conduit for 2 cabinets and 8 stalls. In my quick research, it has a similar layout to this picture from the Fremont v3 site...Fingers crossed! I will see if I can get a comparable picture from the Bensalem progress to compare and contrast.

@Reddy Kilowatt You could be right...but, man I hope you’re wrong! More recon tomorrow...

Quick update after my driveby this afternoon... To all those that thought it was odd that they were building a 6 stall supercharger...It looks like you were right. I am guessing that they weren't done digging trenches and laying conduit when I got my initial pictures, as they were back at it...

Thanks for the tip...I will have to try that out this weekend.

@Felickz Where is the high capacity charger at the Devon SC? I live walking distance from there and have used some of the HPWC's they have on the outside, but didn't notice anything that looked like a Supercharger. Is it outside, or in the service bay?

Well done, @petey_boy...I was going to ask them when I stopped in for lunch this afternoon, but you beat me to it. I work nearby, so should be able to provide some regular pictures on progress and see if I can get a better sense of timing from the hardhat crew...Super excited for the location...

Thanks to all for the historical perspective. Really hoping this is what it looks like. I started a parallel thread in the Mid-Atlantic TMC forum and put up some pictures. Looks like it passed muster with Supercharge.info as they have a new pin dot for Bensalem under construction. Here is...

Here are a couple of additional pictures and a Google map with a circle around the parking spots where the construction is taking place. Wawa 3620 E Street Rd Bensalem, PA 19020 Lat: 40.1249 Lon: -74.9640 I will keep an eye on the progress to see if there are any other identifiable clues.

Updated with pictures...What do we think?

***Cross Posted from the Supercharger Thread*** I stopped for lunch at Wawa in Bensalem, PA this afternoon and noticed that they had a portion of the parking lot roped off for construction, including 6 posts (presumably for signage), 6 PVC stubs (presumably for power), and white Square D...

I stopped for lunch at Wawa in Bensalem, PA this afternoon and noticed that they had a portion of the parking lot roped off for construction, including 6 posts (presumably for signage), 6 PVC stubs (presumably for power), and white Square D cabinets off to the side that all looked suspiciously...
