From my understanding… the raw data in Tesla's API does not differentiate between car charging and home usage. The Tesla app does some of it's own math/shenanigans to show you the two separately, but it doesn't always work. So your comment about it being an algorithmic thing is correct. So...

Yeah, i disabled COS a week ago because we had some snow/rain storms and now it's gone and I wanted to re-enable it this week. Sucks.

Childress is not my favorite SC. But it looks like you did well! In all my road trips, I think I've only had to wait once over the years. The eclipse was a special event. 32ºF is nothing for a SC - when it gets down to -10, -15ºF - then you might see some slowdowns and issues.

As others have said, batteries are not so accurate that a few % off is meaningful. It's all relative to what the battery management system thinks each 1% is worth. It's normal for it to be 2-3% off. That and the fact it will use some for it's own operation as someone else said.

Is that why I had a couple notifications recently of my "stopped charging" automation running even though no charging had occurred in recent days?

I was considering adding Emporia Vue because of NetZero. Just not a priority yet - but maybe at some point this year. Funny - I thought I recall seeing the Emporia stuff in the app, but now I can't find it. Part of my hesitance is I don't know what I really need to buy for Emporia. I've got 2...

Just found out - it works with a Logitech external mouse, but does not work with my touchpad on the MacBook.

What is the long term support mechanism for NetZero? How do you plan to keep this going from a cost perspective?

Tesla Energy operates in markets, meaning that different rules fall in different markets. At least for ME in Colorado, I got mine in the garage. And yes, it was a long run - but I wanted it there. Most of the other installs I've seen in the past 2 months have also been in the garage here.

We rarely get outages…but when we do, it's for awhile. So the PW for me - a huge expense - was worth it because it gives me the backup I need, but also the ability to manipulate our power usage from the grid to help lower costs. If I didn't have TOU today, I'd consider it an investment for the...

I suppose so. So far I've seen no clipping. Going great. I was using the option to use my PW3s fully to cover any usage until depleted because I was self-sufficient/off-grid almost completely, but I didn't like the idea of my PW cycling so much. Also Solar would spend half the day refilling the...

I'm south of Denver. I only drove it for 30m, but in that time - it was pretty amazing. Huge upgrade from 11.x stack. It took turns and even went into a driveway I was not expecting perfectly.

I just got a 19.035 kW panel system with two PowerWall 3s installed mid February. Here is what I see in my docs: Nameplate Rating: 19.035 kW DC Inverter Nameplate Rating: 23 kW AC AC Rating: 17.244 kW CEC-AC Estimated Annual Production: 25779 kWh Total Nameplate Energy...

She has a brand new iPhone 15. I have an iPhone 14 Pro. Neither has an issue with my car (that is not 2024.8)

I've never thought of that…I have stuff in my frunk that could potentially do that…now I need to go mitigate that.
