    Dark mode, when viewing car location in the App

    Well, 'need' to look, not all that often, but 'want' to look maybe every couple of weeks, such as when my other half is late collecting me from the station it's nice to know whether she's just around the corner or still miles away. First world problem maybe, but who claimed that Teslas are...

    Dark mode, when viewing car location in the App

    I've had the same problem for a few weeks on a Samsung Android phone. App home screen is dark (like night mode) and location map is dark (but is OK on or satellite view). I had hoped it would sort itself out, but nothing yet. Anyone else seen this or know an answer?

    Home charging options

    Shouldn't be a problem as long as (1) you use a competent sparks (2) you make sure he knows that the socket will be used to draw a sustained current of 32A for several hours at a time, and (3) he fits the correct type of breaker in the consumer unit that supplies the socket bearing in mind that...

    Question for the electricians

    Well, maybe, or maybe not. What you pay depends on the tariff you are on and from a position of total ignorance I suspect that 3 phase tariffs (including standing charges) are mostly aimed at commerce and are different from single phase domestic tariffs. Or maybe not. All I was saying is...

    Question for the electricians

    Also, cost of power purchased may be an issue. I don't know about 3 phase costs but the domestic market for 3 phase supply is very small and there are probably not a lot of competetive deals. Maybe getting Octopus to supply 2 single phase meters (one on your existing supply and one on one of...

    [UK] Premium Connectivity Progress - pre mid July 2019 orders

    Just to say our Premium connectivity returned today (LR AWD ordered May 2019) without me raising the issue with Tesla at any stage, so thanks to all of you who did the nagging

    Premium Connectivity reinstated?

    Just installed 2020.40 and the first thing I noticed when I went out after the update was that live traffic data has re-appeared on the map. To put this into context our M3 LR AWD is now well over 12 months old and the premium connectivity disappear (as expected) some moths ago. Have just...

    Car won't wake from app

    I must admit to not having been through the whole of this thread but recent posts still seem to suggest it may be a LTE cum SIM card problem. For what it is worth our LRAWD sits in the garage happily connected at full signal to the house WiFi, and can't we woken with TeslaFi from my desktop, so...

    Battery Degradation (or lack of it) over 1 year M3 AWD LR

    Our LR AWD experience much like ElectricJoules. Started at 309, went up to 310, dropped to a minimum of 292 and now back up to 300. Normally charge when SOC drops to about 40% and normally charge to 85% 'Recallibration' did seem to help. When range dropped to 292 I ran the battery down to...

    Difficulty deciding - Andersen or Zappi

    I've got a Zappi 2 and solar. Zappi works well and now that Tesla seemed to had cured the 'wake up to charge on solar' problem (touch wood) I can mop up surplus solar. That said as long as I can get all the juice that I (personally) need at 5p a unit via Octopus Go the saving I get from solar...

    Return of phantom 16 amp charging

    Interesting that both M3DM and I had an 'incident' at 01:34 or thereabouts. Anyone else who did a charge last night have an issue at the same time? Also, does anyone on Agile know if this was a price plunge moment?

    Return of phantom 16 amp charging

    If this were the problem you would expect regular issues at 0030 when Octopus Go cuts in - the bang to the grid then must be much higher then than when price plunges hit. Here's my last night charge: In case you can't see the details charging started at 0030 and the drop happened at 01:34...

    16A Commando cable

    As a matter of interest does anyone know what current will be drawn if you buy a Tesla pigtail with a Schuko 16A plug - is the current limited to something less than 16A in the same way that the 13A pigtail is limited to 10A?

    My Experience Switching to Octopus -> Go

    Actually the guys who installed our Octopus smart meter (the first one we have had) seemed fine. They arrived with instructions to do both gas and electric but I said I didn't want the gas done and they were happy to phone back to their office and get the job order changed. Actual fitting was...

    My Experience Switching to Octopus -> Go

    It took us several (maybe 3 or 4) weeks. There was an issue with our smart meter not reporting to Octopus, The smart meter itself had a good signal connection back to the central system, but for some reason the data didn't get to Octopus. In the end I nagged Octopus and they in turn got...
