You should start a Twitter account: @teslaappupdates Make sure you label it as parody, as if it weren't obvious enough.

Oh wait. What app?

Bizarrely, this morning, my Impact showed Powerwall on the graph, but now it's back to 0%. I do not understand what the app is doing. Save for a few minutes this morning when we used the air fryer, we've barely pulled from the grid. Currently app shows 4.6 kWh for today. That's definitely not...

With only a single Powerwall+ and a 8.16kw system, I am very seldom sending power back to the grid, and if I can stabilize my log-capturing script, I want to send myself/household a reminder if we're approaching 100% capacity and we're still generating that somebody should start running the...

Weird. Even without PTO, I'm able to send power back to the grid (PG&E), even though I'm not supposed to. So I've been trying to keep a close eye and fire up the A/C, washer or dryer, whatever when we have excess. Ahh, the joys of WFH. :p

Hi - so I finally got my Powerwall+ inverter issue (low coolant) resolved back on July 26. So then, I've been obsessively looking at the app (yes, I upgraded), the gateway interface, and API data from the gateway. One thing that has been bugging me, but I chalked it up to not having PTO yet...

People are probably discussing this elsewhere, but in the release notes for v4.0.0 of the app is this: So... that's new.

Speaking of API documentation, I just added a note in the issues, because a few weeks I found what might be a useful new endpoint: https://teg/api/devices/vitals It returns a binary file, but somebody has figured out how to decode it (I just wish they'd share a script. :) Anywho in 21.31.0, I...

Huh. So your screenshot shows 21.24.2, which I've had since... Aug 17. But yeah, I see your Powerwall graphic is shortened like @eml2 's screenshot. But I have a screenshot from July 3, a few days after I got firmware 21.20.3 , and it's also got a "short" Powerwall: So I don't think that...

And for those that are lazy and just like using curl, I've been using (and contributing to) this documentation effort: GitHub - vloschiavo/powerwall2: Tesla Powerwall 2 - Local Gateway API documentation

Ah, I forgot to post here that I also got the firmware upgrade on Monday night around 10:45PM PDT, as reported by api/system/update/status: { "state":"/download", "info":{ "expected_bytes":[ "220782656" ], "got_bytes":[ "88313088" ], "offset_bytes":[ "0" ]...

Ok, on Saturday night around 11PM, I decided to try a full Stop System (via the Web UI) *AND* flip the breaker off *AND* turn off the switch on the Power Wall. I was even prepared to pull the e-stop jumper out of my inverter, but didn't have a proper tool, and to be honest was a little scared of...

To clarify - I do not have a physical stop button. If you're talking about the STOP SYSTEM button in the web UI (pictured below), then yes, clicking that during the evening didn't do me any good the next day. I still got a self-test in the middle of the day:

Hey yeah, I looked at the Powerwall 2 manual as well as this: https://tesla-cdn.thron.com/static/UZVPRN_solar-inverter-solar-shutdown-device-datasheet-en-na_6T7HSR.pdf My reading on the Solar Shutdown Device is that it's part of an automated system that triggers on "Loss of AC power". So it's...

Huh. I would very much like to find the manual for my inverter before doing this.
