I read on the Tesla forums that contacts with more than 5 phone numbers will cause the transfer to stop. Pretty lame bug; my guess, given their rate of fixing lame bugs like this, is that some solution should likely roll out sometime in 2017.

The latest I saw was a post to a private thread on the Tesla official forums saying that at the coffee & donuts meeting recently in Menlo Park, they said that they were doing a major revamp of the energy display, and that they would not be fixing the doesn't-remember-average-versus-instant...

At the foot of each whiteboard could be a squeegee and a bucket of water for de-bugging while you charge too. The only SC I've been at so far that had a convenient solution to this problem was the old SC by the gas station at Harris Ranch. No regular squeegee access is the one major downside...

How about *3* blue Teslas side-by-side? This was on Sand Hill Rd in Menlo Park, CA a few months ago:

My *front* passenger side window made a horrible crunching noise when I opened it the other day (might be only the 2nd or 3rd time it's been opened). It still moves up and down, but with a nasty grinding/clunking sound. I have it closed with tape over the button until the first available...

Reminds me of the infamous "Desert Bus" video game. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penn_%26_Teller's_Smoke_and_Mirrors#Desert_Bus

I've enabled the web-server version now so people can try it out themselves. http://rungie.com:8080/ For instructions on the files you need to download from PG&E to feed to the program, you need to read the readme here: https://github.com/hughescr/PGE-EV-Rate-Calculator I'll copy the relevant...

Front red oscillating lights like that are illegal in California. You can have any other color up there, or red on any other side of the car other than front. But front + red = no. :(

That's good :) Now try: "node parse.js" instead of "./parse.js" -- could be permissions aren't set to executable or something.

If you type "node -v" instead, without the quotes, what does it say?

Holy cow. For me, nav at anything higher than volume 4 is deafening. I normally have Slacker/radio/bluetooth at 3-6 depending on road speed and whether the kids in the back seat are yelling at each other.

I've now implemented calculations for E1, E6, E7, E9 and EV, and tweaked the output to be a IMO a bit more informative/helpful. Rate: E1 Summer Cost: $7010.64 Per day: $11.49 Winter Cost: $9126.48 Per day: $13.58 Total Cost: $16137.12 Per day: $12.59 Rate: E6 Summer...

I found a bug in how I was calculating baseline usage for E9 which punished it pretty badly. I was using their baseline as per month, when it's actually per day, so off by a factor of about 30x, which pushed pretty much all E9 usage into tier 3 super fast. I've fixed it now, and my own data...

Log in to pge.com, then click "My usage" on the menu. Then in the bottom right corner there's a "Green Button Download My Data" button. Click that. Then you want the "For developers and third parties (.xml file)", "Export usage for a range of days" and select the max possible range it lets...

I've banged a quick-and-dirty comparison tool together for folks to allow comparing PG&E's current E9-A rate plan versus the upcoming EV-A rate plan. The basic concept is you download hourly historical usage data from PG&E (doesn't matter what rate plan you were on at the time, you can download...
