Good call thanks, I thought I had cut out all the PII :O That's reassuring, I certainly have enough storage that I can export during peak.

Well, I guess this is finally happening. The price increase is quite a bit, so I'll have to see what the best new configuration is for my power walls. I just got this notice today from SCE:

Almost two years exactly I re-checked the rate calculator and it's even worse compared to my original post. Since then I've added a 3rd powerwall and more solar to max out my inverter, which means the rate comparison tool isn't 100% accurate for me. I'm nearly 100% self powered these days...

Not sure if this is affecting you, but it's an easy thing to check. One thing I have noticed in my install is that the canbus wiring was a bit shoddy from my installers and caused a powerwall to not register correctly. They're mounted in the corner of my garage with the status lights facing...

Hey All, I wanted to see if there were any Model Y owners local to Corona, CA that wouldn't mind me dropping by to look at the car in person? I want to compare some dimensions with our current Honda CRV and to see in general what the car looks like. Feel free to DM me if you're open to this!

I have a 10.89 kW DC system. (33x 330W panels) I'm not sure how SCE calculates these values, as my current bills show that I actually don't have any energy credits. My guess is that it goes off of a full year TOU cycle. My current cycle ends in June, so we'll see if the numbers drastically...

I'm debating on whether or not to add a bit more solar to my existing setup this year (still 26% credit). We do have an EV and 2x Powerwalls already. When I get pushed off of TOU-D-A my rates will jump quite a bit per year:

You can explicitly turn off wifi on the gateway? How does one go about this, that would be great!

Both are working for me as well. Android app and mobile from SoCal.

Are you sure that it's using the lan connection for data? I had both a cell card and ethernet, I had to switch the data connection to ethernet for the higher speeds to take effect.

When I ran my test I didn't check how much solar I was producing unfortunately. I'd have to do more testing around that.

When I say "fire up" I mean the AC condenser. At no point in my experiments did the powerwalls stop producing power or shut down. Without solar, and 100% on battery power the house browns out (even with a properly rated and installed SureStart) When the house browns out the thermostat...

It would be my regular house loads, so probably ~1kW It doesn't help that my unit is 13 years old, I'm sure the starting current has gone up since it was new. Once it kicks the bucket I'm definitely moving to an inverter/variable speed unit.
