    Time-Based Control?

    That's a great post...... Great to know that there is a Windows app for PW2, I've tried it...... not bad at all. I'm located in Sydney, Australia and my electricity retailer is AGL (Endeavour Energy is the distributor). My 'effective' rates after 32% discount are: Off-peak: 11.97 c/kWh...

    Time-Based Control?

    My Tesla app updated to 3.3.5 last night but still on 1.15.1.... and no sign of TBC yet...... :-( Just weird how different people are getting different/missing features on different/same versions. Tesla is taking a very haphazard approach to firmware/software updates. If Spock was looking at...

    Time-Based Control?

    Correct. But if you select Home and Solar together, they show kWh. Which kinda makes sense since powerflow is really is in one direction. To the House and From Solar. Took a few goes to see what combo results in the display. I found that with a lot of apps (iOS and Android), scrolling reveals...

    The percentages only show up when selecting one source. But if you select two or more sources, it will then show kWh and direction for each source. See below. The left side shows just percentages when selecting one source. The right side shows two sources but kWh display instead of %.

Peak tariff will decrease by 29.5% Shoulder tariff will decrease by 6.6% Off-peak tariff will increase by...

    Time-Based Control?

    Adding back to my own comments.... If I pay for off-peak usage from grid rather use the battery. I am paying profits to the retailer. Grrrrr. The battery avoids that scenario. But then I would use the battery more and that results in wear and tear reducing it's future life capacity. So, what's...

    Time-Based Control?

    So, OK, someone agrees then.... my thoughts.... it costs more, energy wise, to recharge battery from off-peak (you'll lose 10-15%) than it does to export excess solar and receive FiT. The excess FiT then pays for any off-peak grid usage you use. Hopefully that will be more than you use. Then you...

    Time-Based Control?

    Still waiting for my TBC to appear. I have version 1.15.1 on PW2 and 3.3.4 on Andriod phone. Not a big deal for me at the moment as I usually have about 60-70% charge left overnight on Self-Powered mode. But, hopefully I will get TBC by late Autumn (mid May) as that's when solar production...
