    System issues in very hot climate locations this summer?

    A lot of people who responded on this thread don't seem to fully understand Tesla as a business. 1. Tesla tries to optimize for having the right level of customer service for a given customer base, product / service quality improvements and service cost control (which is not the same as...

    System issues in very hot climate locations this summer?

    > It sounds like you got an appointment 30 days ish after you reported the issue which is a while. Math fail? I see you are one of those guys. In every forum where someone raises an issue with a substandard product or service, there is always someone who is keen on defending the company as if...

    Has anyone cut ties with your utility in California?

    OP and several others on this thread seem to be seriously considering cutting ties with their utilities in California and going 100% off-grid. Based on few responses, it appears this is even possible in San Diego (and other places?). I posted a reply warning people that Tesla Energy is not 100%...

    System issues in very hot climate locations this summer?

    Are there many people experiencing solar system / solar production issues in locations that have very hot climate this summer? I am in Arizona and my system stopped production on May 14th. It's taken a long time to get through level 1 customer support, then level 2 remote investigation, and...

    Discussion: Tesla Energy / Auto Customer Service

    I have no experience with other solar providers, but if you are talking about Tesla Energy, I don't think you should cut the cord yet. Reason - Tesla Energy's customer service and response times. They are great as long as everything is going smoothly. When things go wrong, they can be quite...

    Spiky power generation on a completely sunny day

    One of my two homes has this same pattern during the hot months of the year, during the hottest middle part of the day. It is a consistent pattern for about 4 hours or so surrounding noon. My spikes go down all the way to zero. Last year was the first full year of operation when I noticed this...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    And...? You think "someone got distracted", and so Tesla did not work as per that plan, or that someone did not publish the plan, or both? Switching from Part 2 to Part 3 of the plan is a lot more complex and huge than switching from Part 1 to Part 2. They can't announce it too soon, nor can...

    Elon & Twitter

    It appears that this guy didn't get the memo: No sensible posts allowed in this thread. How dare he post something sensible! Let's cancel him.

    Elon & Twitter

    Few points to consider: 1. Twitter's current user-facing feature set does not require a large cash burning work force or infrastructure to sustain. There is plenty of room for waste reduction and cost savings, even after the current lay-offs. 2. In fact, current Twitter user-facing feature set...

    Elon & Twitter

    Did you forget the sequence of events? Or, are you deliberately misrepresenting?

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Very good point about many things in the world having huge fan bases, but very less haters. Most people don't understand that the Elon hate (and by extension Tesla hate) is manufactured. Meaning, they don't know that the sincere hate they feel has been subtly fed into them by a media and social...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    What do you mean by "native speakers"? There are very, very, very few Indians whose native language (that is, the mother tongue) is English. Their number is extremely small and would be nowhere near the "most" in the world. Most people in India who speak English have a different native Indian...

    Safety Score for Insurance

    Thank you. These are the times when you wish Tesla would provide a desktop browser based access to all the data they show on the app.

    Safety Score for Insurance

    Do you know if they consider non-driving days in the calculation of the score? Also, do they round up or down? In the past 30 days, I drove on 15 days and had the following scores: 98 X 1 day = 98 99 X 3 days = 297 100 X 11 days = 1100 The average of those comes to 99.66 if I average it across...

    Insurance rate increase

    Speed is not a main factor or a direct factor for safety scores. Based on my experience, you can drive the car like you normally would and expect to pay the same insurance as you normally would with other providers. May be lesser, may be more in some individual circumstances. However, the...
