The 4 at the end that are wrapped up were not previously there.

I understood from the governor’s press conference last summer that it would be more chargers and all v3s. Hopefully they are going to upgrade after the new ones are up and running.

Now that I think about it, as far as I know one of the big differences between v2 and v3 is the big battery. If they didn't install a battery, these will be v2. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong.

You're wrong. Batteries aren't necessary for V3 locations and very, very few V3 locations that are currently operational have them.

This is awesome. This location is long overdue for additional stalls and V3 makes it that much better.

Does anyone know if they are adding more stalls where the construction area is on the right of the photo, or is it just the 4 new stalls on the left?

Good question I'm curious myself...

Part of the Turnpike upgrade is supposed to include other EV chargers, so maybe that is why they are tearing up the other row.

There were other locations mentioned as part of the deal with the Turnpike Authority, which include: Okahumpka, Turkey Lake (expansion), Canoe Creek, Fort Pierce, West Palm Beach and Pompano Beach.

I’ve asked the South Florida Tesla owners and they confirmed that all would happen sooner or later, if anyone could check them out. Photo by @Larry Chanin

Nice!!! Wish they would have been v3 though!

Not to be quarrelsome, but how do you know the new chargers are functioning? You are in "old 5" and no other vehicles are around. The new stall does not appear to have a charger number at the base. How do you know the new chargers are not V3?

4/10 of them are V3. I’ve also been informed that the ChargePoint DCFCs are operational. Photo from PlugShare

Which ones are V3?

Which ones are V3?

If they are V3 it will be the four new ones on the end.

Which ones are V3?

An easy way to tell is if they don’t have the usual 1A/1B nomenclature then they are V3, cause V3 don’t share power between 2 stalls
