    SolarEdge Inverter Replacement

    Good to hear it's worked out for you so far. I'm not sure how Tesla's black box zigbee works compared to SE's zigbee white box, but I imagine they might be similar. On my SE zigbee, it gets repaired with an inverter by hold down a red button until all the lights start flashing. It's then looking...

    SolarEdge Inverter Replacement

    Sorry to hear that. It took one month from when my third party installer called the RMA in to it arriving at my door step. I actually have a good repour with my installer and I told him I'd install and commission it. He came and took pictures of my work and sent it to my solar company for the...

    Cannot log into the powerwall app

    Yeah I just responded to that post before seeing you referenced it here.

    Old Tesla App No Longer Working

    Same here. Woke up to check my PW percentage and couldn't log in. I feel the same way you folks do about the old and new app. I think it's Tesla's way of forcing the garbage new app upgrade on old version users.

    Cannot log into the powerwall app

    I'm assuming you're talking about the Tesla app. I'm having the same problem. Are you running the old or new version of the Tesla app?

    SolarEdge Inverter Replacement

    I had a 7600 fail in late Novemeber last year. My third party installer came out and got on the phone with Solaredge tech support. As soon as he mentioned VCAP21 failure and that the inverter would not go in to production the Solaredge rep said they'll RMA the unit. It took a month to get a new...

    Inverter Shutting Down

    Or a Solaredge HD wave inverter. That would work just as well if not better than the Tesla inverter considering it doesn't need an active cooling system and operates at 99% efficiency.

    Why does my GW keep asking me to connect to my wi-fi?

    That's unbelievably extreme IMO, but, to each his own.

    How to change gateway to never export?

    In your case, your solar export is specifically controlled by your SE inverters, not by the gateway. If you don't have an SE RGM attached to your system then you can disregard the below information. I'm assuming you have an SE RGM (revenue grade meter) attached to you SE inverters which allows...

    Using the SolarEdge App, how to tell if you have as bad optimizer, Panels?

    It's not very hard at all, but it does require some basic knowledge and understanding of how the TG works and how to get in to it. I'm not going to go in to detail in this forum on how to do it. If you're interested in more information on how to do this please PM me.

    Using the SolarEdge App, how to tell if you have as bad optimizer, Panels?

    Excellent point and I'm sure that's why Tesla has not noticed me charging my PW's ,at will, from the grid on poor solar days for the last 5 months. :cool: And no @jjrandorin, I'm not on some crusade again. I'm just illustrating the point that @Vines is making that Tesla is not looking at...

    Using the SolarEdge App, how to tell if you have as bad optimizer, Panels?

    If you have the none display type SE inverters you can use an app called "setapp". It's the installers app to commission and diagnose problems with your inverter and/or optimizers. Anyone can register as an installer if you have an email address. I'll caveat all this by saying do this at your...

    Powerwall at South Facing Location

    That's a bit of a loaded question there. The number of wires that can be run through a conduit is based on the size/type of conduit and gauge (size) of wire/wires running through the conduit. Then there's the fill/space requirement. The NEC specifications are: One wire: maximum fill is 53% of...

    Storm Watch failed us again [in MA, Late July 2021]

    It really sounds like storm watch shouldn't solely concentrate on the individuals geographic location, but also take in to account where the power is coming from to feed individuals and what the NWS says about that geographic location. As an example, if the power plant/substations are located...
