I have been wondering the same thing as the OP. With no time of use rates for my electric, and the lost efficiency of storing my energy daily, it just seems more efficient to take the credit from the local utility and not rely on my batteries to power the overnight hours. I agree it’s not a...

I have 4 powerwalls being installed, all sourced through my solar installer. I signed the paperwork in late Jan or early Feb. When I heard about the new rules from Tesla I reached out to them and was told not to worry. My only requirement was to get the install done before hurricane season...

I have SunPower (360W panels) with Tesla PowerWalls being installed right not (literally walking on my roof right now). I'm doing 11kWp at ~ $3.05 per Watt - before incentives. So far I have been super impressed with the installation team. They should hopefully be wrapping up today.

Picked up my p100 w/Ludicrous a week ago today. I still don’t have Ludicrous or Autopilot enabled. No one at the Charlotte service center, or at the 800 number seem to have a clue on how to address this issue. Over an hour on the phone on Friday resulted in them saying it will probably resolve...

Raven Model X w/Ludicrous is scheduled to be delivered on 6/17. They just sent me a new order agreement and Ludicrous no longer shows on the order. They said that’s the only way they can provide the $20k discount. Is this how it worked for everyone else? I expected a $0 line item for Ludicrous...

I'm pretty much living with 110v charging right now. For the most part it's fine, my commute is only ~12 miles. I would love to get it done in the next 4-6 weeks, but I can be flexible for a trusted contractor. Bill

Just moved to Charlotte and need to get my HPWC installed. Can anyone recommend a good electrician in SE Charlotte or Union county? I may have to get a service upgrade along with a second 200amp panel as part of the install. Thanks Bill

Thanks For the clarification. I hadn't noticed any adverse effects, but it's only been a couple of days.

Anyone know what the vertical slits just below the camera are in this picture? I just installed my dashcsm and I'm concerned that this may be partially blocked.

I'm new to IFTTT and trying to get it to chain events through Maker. I've created a recipe that turns on the climate control when I tell Alexa (Amazon Echo) to warmup the car. Is there anyway to have IFTTT automatically run another recipe that sets the temperature too?

Cool, but I wonder how easily these could be "hacked"? Would it be possible for me to change the meaning of the sign with a sharpie? I'm not real familiar with how the information is encoded, so maybe it's not realistic to be able to make a change without invalidating the code.

Off topic, but...Its January, you have PA tags, and your grass is crazy green!

My primary reason for wanting Paypal is due to how Paypal tracks re-occuring charges. I can cancel my subscription at any time through Paypal without relying on the service provider. It's not that I don't trust Ryan, it's more that it's easy to forget what all the miscellaneous re-occuring...

Ryan, First I just wanted to thank you for hard work on this project. I definitely enjoy the trip tracking and was just about to start playing with the IFTTT integration when you made it a Pro feature. I went to sign up for Pro for a month to try it out, but I'm not familiar with Stripe for...

If she's sitting in the car she can just touch the control panel and the car will come back on for heating/cooling and media. No key needed, unless that has changed recently.
