Stopped by today. 12 stalls all upstairs. Hardware not in yet.

Interesting to see upstairs. At least better than the old one Paseo location. Going to make it harder parking for the gym

We're definitely consumers with two EVs and a pool with two active pumps. Still able to be net generators for pk and most off peak so most usage is super off peak -- just a lot of it. Nonbypassable charges really do us in and something that's new since we had NEM 1.0 prior to our move to new...

Are most on EV-TOU-5? Works really nicely when coupled with our PV+PW2 array.

Right. My neighbor got over 600 for his pw2. Wondering if tesla is doing better, doesn't sound like it as we have both options

Curious -- what are people's 2023 payout and if Tesla does a 1099-misc with it or not. debating to join VPP or not.

Been kicking around the idea of buying resale EVs. The rate of depreciation due to the falling new sale prices has been incredible where EVs used to hold their resale value at the tops of cars. We have an aging 3rd vehicle that we would be interested in replacing with Y or X. Do you think...

Ty for the explanation. So the pw2 inverter is not used at all while there's an inverter on the CT which is not on other Teslas at this time?

The setup states two components: Gateway and the connector. My understanding is the connector simply is a conduit that supports both AC and DC currents from point A-B The key is the GATEWAY - which is the switch AND Inverter for Tesla Powerwall and doing the heavy lifting. In the case...

Utilities should have plenty of information on VPP on how it stabilizes the grid reliably with set energy. It's interesting how VPP hours last 3 while most PW2 will only last 2-2.5 hours at full discharge. The real question lies in this: is VPP economically comparable to the utilities AND...

Have had PW+ since last year and doing well. No issues after initial shakedown then.... Nov 3 suddenly goes from 100 to 0. Since then nada. -- PW slow fading green bar Did reset Did full shutdown and disconnect for 10min Tried connecting to both gateway and backup gateway -- unable to...

I would submit that most consumer purchase decisions come with options available; not warranty considerations at 7 years. From the company side decision it's also sales potential of one product vs another within own product line vs external competition. To date, Tesla is had NO incentive to...

Our 3 has 63k miles on it and 90% still at 4 years. Our Y has 37k miles with still charging to original miles on it. If one daisy chains onto an existing PW2 -- it limits 5kw discharge per hour. Even if one uses this for 3 hours after PW2 exhausted, 15kw is not a significant deep draw...

This is my point. There's been this 'void your warranty' scare that EV batteries will suffer being leveraged to support V2G/V2H solutions -- it's quite the opposite where EV batteries will have a walk-in-the-park level stress compared to a regular daily commute usage. It's a BUSINESS...

Never verified and highly doubt Tesla would go to older tech and using higher cost materials. EV cells perform quite well and under significantly more stressful environments then the PW. In the case of daisy chaining an EV to PW, you're capping draw a 5KW per hour. That's sipping a...

Tesla wants to sell batteries -- aka Powerwall. Until there's enough pressure internally or external competition, Musk isn't going to change this. I CAN see a future where an adaptor for Powerwall will become available to attach to Tesla EVs to daisy chain to support at least V2H/V2G/VPP...

92130 resident here -- 32°57'44.7"N 117°11'21.9"W · 6030 Village Way, San Diego, CA 92130 This is probably going to be in the two story garage next to the chase branch is my guess. There's a Jersey Mike and Bonchon in that strip with a ColdStone Cremery coming soon too. Cross the complex...

no SGIP - The Fed credit is a bit more fuzzy on ability to claim and utilize this function it seems. You're probably right on the NBCs, but I have no real control over that unless I really play with the rates since no ability to toggle the rate of discharge during peak hours. Regardless, I...

Just found out about this yesterday from brother. Here's datapoint: SDGE; Telsa installed PW+solar. Owned. on EV rate. No SGIP Able to fully enable export everything and grid charging. So Peak hours - PW2 discharges steadily for about three hours to reserve set at 20% (still want...

Admittedly we have a lead foot -- 900+ consumption on accelerations and ave 365kw/mi with the first 200 miles so far; but having fun with the car at the moment. standard settings on the regular rims too. There's a bit of vampire drain with sentry mode and climate overheating so turned those...

@disturbed932 - no didn't need it to clear. Did chase deposit and had funds to pay ACH on Tesla app for the balance. Simple phone call to the local delivery, they removed the trade-in and it updated immediately. @Collier007 - Carmax was plenty busy and lots of transactions ongoing. If...

A bit disappointed to see homelink not installed already. PITA now have to order it. FSD $7k on app. Model 3 getting the garage still because of this.

They did touchless delivery today. Dropped the Y and left before we even got the Ring notice. Gone in 30 sec.

Took delivery today. Tesla dropped tradin by $500 day before. Went to carmax and got $1100 higher 4400 vs 5500. Out the door in 1 hour and carmax was quite busy too....but efficient. Carvana came in at 5335 and more virtual experience. Did touchless delivery today. Car dropped off in...

Like most things -- anything that starts falling out the regular stream of standard operations becomes problematic until a highly skilled employee usually in Tier 3-4 gets on the case. Tiers 1-2 don't know squat outside the normal streams like any system. You want cost effective streamlined...

Got text to confirm cash payment; next day VIN in source code appeared, then MVPA. 3rd day (yesterday) : text for scheduling delivery and link for options. Able to payoff anytime after the initial text. We scheduled yesterday for Jun 3. Paid off ACH today. VIN appears on main page now...

I did see MY Blue/Black down here in SD parking lot last week -- that's what gave me hope that production restarted in earnest.

So got text for delivery today. Jun 3 - Carlsbad ,SoCal - MSM/Black 19" no FSD day 1 ressie Sequence of events this week: Text for final payment cash confirm Final payment on page becomes available MVPA showed VIN along with VIN search Text for delivery 2 days later -- offered only 3 days...

My bad -- No VIN on the splash page RN still on the MVPA the VIN is listed as the same as the source code.

And just like that MVPA posted -- still no VIN or call! weird.

Day 1 reservation: MSM/black 19" no FSD -- just got txt for final payment; no VIN - BUT source code pulled 103xx. So finally something -- any they want final payment -- but no delivery date, no VIN -- not giving more free loan $$$$

103xx - MSM/Black/19" /no FSD -- Day 1 reservation -- No in order page --- only reason I checked was got a text for CASH final payment, but no delivery date assignment. Weird to be requesting final payment before delivery date or official VIN assignement?

103xx -- checked after got text for final payment -- but no call for delivery. Did people get final payment request prior to delivery date setup?

Day 1 order - MSM/black, no FSD 19" - got 'final payment' text today out of nowhere. And submit final payment. Did source code search: success! 5Yxxxx103xx No delivery date calls. Do people just pay their cash ahead before VIN or call? Financed our first one but this one they can...

:( Day 1 reservation with Model 3 --- no love still. MSM 19" AWD-LR no FSD. Sitting and waiting; waiting; waiting

Day 1 ressie and at final stages awaiting VIN -- SoCal -- no call yet. :( --Wonder for those getting calls -- are they PUP or not? Noted that PUP is 'free' option right now and since at the final stage, don't have the option to select it anyways.

If that's the Carlsbad facility, please let us know how the experience is. We're in San Diego and 'patiently' waiting for our next steps: first day - LR-AWD 19" MSM black interior - no FSD

There's less of S curve like with the 3 and really need to know where to ship bunches of cars out into which locations - so they need to get everyone's ducks started to line up and be ready to take on delivery when the car arrives. That means get everyone's financing and paperwork ready to go...

Reported on Reddit already Log in to your Tesla page. New updates and registration process all being populated. No dates for delivery, but the initial stages for setup is active. 19" AWD-LR - Black Interior; Regular Autopilot --- San Diego, CA.

With the Tax Credit - $3.5k difference only now. Two years later, the manufacturing costs decreased and savings subsequently passed on to consumers. Do you think legacy makers and dealers would do the same?

Tesla cars have an onboard inverter. It should be able to convert without an issue back to AC. The tech isn't the issue but the politics with Utilities and the finances of Tesla in selling PW2 for the same function. My suggested solution for Tesla -- allow piggybacking tesla cars to the PW2...

That used to be true with the old PW1. PW2 use the same batteries coming off the line as the Model 3 - hence the shortage of PW2 packs and installations last year because of the battery shortage issue out of the GF. All the tech is already onboard our Tesla cars to provide the bidirectional...

Well that's not good if the PW2 fails with 75% SOC left and not delivering anything. I do wonder what happens when the draw is greater than the inverter supplies and if it just shuts down and restarts after a cycle (~30min?) and powers back up to allow appropriate draw. Ie time for the owner...

@MP3Mike - Thanks for the reference. That was back in May. Hopefully coming soon is closer than further. That's exactly an easy program fix since our App clearly is able to tell backup is in progress, all it needs to do is make sure cars in the app don't charge and drain the powerwall...

So this happened a few weeks ago......SDGE with PV and PW2 and Model 3 that charges overnight. Typically set on cost savings with a reserve 25%. Well power went out at 1AM. And our Model 3 basically drained the entire PW2. So -- how can Tesla address this issue where one tech item...

Grandfathered NEM 1.0 and made the switch over to TOU5 --- saving quite a bundle just because we charge so much at night on the EV. IIRC, break even is low -- something around 250kwh (700miles driving monthly). So any average driver should come out ahead on switching. Also have PW and...

Getting in/out will be easier once the construction lane closes off and allows faster entry off DelMar Heights. Remember to download your Shake Shack app to order ahead for the food to be ready once you plug in :) Lots of nice shops to dwell in OnePaseo. Coffee, desserts, quick bites and even...

We have a 4kw PV NEM 1.0 and Tesla 3 that went 25k miles last year along with pool that runs in the night. We moved over to TOU5 and saved bundles. $16 is a flat fee and IIRC the straight calculation is ~750 miles a month gets you to break even on the battery consumption alone. We've saved...

on 8.5.3aaa23d - got in 4/2018. Updated today to: 12.1.2 :)

that's the challenge of ABRP; it doesn't allow to you plan the charge departure automatically. It uses SOC % arrival as the bottom and how to fast charge enough to get to the next station at 10%. Take the 16 point route you have, then start selecting the chargers where you'd like to have a...
