Has anyone adding a second system while on EV-A? I currently have a 3.2kW system with two Powerwalls. My EV-A plan is good thru 4/2024. I’m trying adding a second 5.2kW system before NEM 3.0 starts. Since EV-A is no longer available, will I get to stay on EV-A, or will I be forced to switch...

I have a code for a mobile charger/wall charger for sale. You can use it to get a mobile charger for free (no sales tax charged), or a wall charger for $120 + sales tax. Asking $200.

I currently have a Tesla 3.25kW system with two Powerwalls. I’m trying to add an additional 4.25kW system because of expected usage increase (another electric car and switching from gas to electric heat). I’m in the Bay Area (San Mateo County). The initial layout came back and it’s sub-optimal...

If you have solar, another thing to consider is that some CCAs (e.g. San Mateo's Peninsula Clean Energy) pay you retail rates at true-up if you have surplus (actual 1 cent more than the retail rate), so you'll get more money back than sticking with PG&E...

My installation (2 Powerwalls) took only about 5 hours with about 4 hours without power. I had a generator to power my fridge and internet the whole time. You'll definitely want/need to be home during the installation. If you're installing the Powerwalls in the garage, make sure the area is...

I just called the Tesla Billing Department (1-888-765-2489). if I use Paypal I can only use one credit card, but if I call in, I can split the charges across 2-3 cards.

Thanks for everyone's responses. I was hoping they'll split the invoice into two so I can get two new credit cards and max out the signup bonus points (e.g. Chase Ink Business Preferred is offering 80k points). Any idea if it's possible to split the charges into two cards?

I'm scheduled to have two Powerwalls installed next week. I already have Solar so this is just adding the Powerwalls. If you recently did this, do you mind telling me how invoicing was handled? My sales rep told me that I'll be invoiced via Paypal for 100% of the amount after installation. From...

Which number did you call?

Another data point for the Bay Area. Permit issued on 12/9 to add two Powerwalls. The next available installation date is Feb 13, 2020.

The charger has been sold.

The charger is still available. $475 + shipping, or local Bay Area pickup. It's about 30lb so it'll probably cost about $75-$80 to ship.

I have a brand new black HPWC with 24' cable available for sale. It's not the Elon Signature model. Asking $475 + Shipping. If you're in the Bay Area we can arrange for pickup.

According to the IRS notice (https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-drop/n-18-59.pdf) it needs to be "Physical Work of a Significant Nature". They even listed examples of work that qualifies. Preliminary preparation work such as planning, permit, etc. don't count. However the "Work" can be done by you or...

Perhaps. As of the 10/17 SGIP spreadsheet, there're 1036 projects on the wait-list across all the utilities providers, total incentive is about $3 million. If SB700 funds $166mil per year, shouldn't they be funded unless the new money comes with a different set of requirements?
