    New solar and Powerwall installation

    Exactly what they quoted. I changed the location of the powerwall last minute, had the team remove a satellite dish from my roof, and replace a bad circuit breaker and they did it all without an additional charge.

    My install was completed this week so if anyone has questions I’m here to help

    PW2 Critical Load Panel Yes or No

    I was also under the impression that it isn’t optional (I have an electric stove on a 50 amp)

    Has anyone gone off grid

    This is my motivation as well. my connection fee is $25 a month in upstate NY. upgrading my system to cover would be more than that but not so much more that it isnt a real consideration

    Has anyone gone off grid

    as more and more powerwalls start to make their way into the wild, i'm wondering if anyone has used multiple powerwalls to completely disconnect themselves from the grid. to be clear, is there anyone that was once grid tied that no longer even pays an access/connection fee to their ex electric...

    Looking forward to my install - few questions

    contract is 27.5K - net 12.5K i currently use oil heat and electric for everything else (cooking, dryers, etc). i average about 450kwh a month. (current quoted 5 kwh system produces quite a bit more than this) if i'm going to increase the system i will go up to 5.85 kwh hours (18 panels) and...

    Total is about 22k before credits. Keep in mind 5.2kwh is about 25% oversized already

    another 4k will bring my system from 5.2kwh to 6.5kwh which is MUCH more than i use... decisions, decisions

    Looking forward to my install - few questions

    I’m gonna ask what 4 more panels will cost

    powerwall clarification

    I know. I just can’t justify the cost of a second Powerwall. Maybe one day

    powerwall clarification

    I'm in the same boat except swap your AC for my Electric stove. i would understand more if my typical usage wasnt so paltry. I typically use 12ish kwh a day which the powerwall site says should more than be covered by a single unit

    New solar and Powerwall installation

    mine is delta as well... any benefit to going with SolarEdge?

    Looking forward to my install - few questions

    my assumption is if/when we go electric with our vehicle, the cost of solar will be lower and it will be cheaper and possibly more efficient then. we dont currently expect to go EV for 3-5 years

    Looking forward to my install - few questions

    16 panels - 5.2kwh system and 1 Powerwall... part of me still feels like I should’ve increased to 18-20 panels but I can always add more later

    Looking forward to my install - few questions

    It is a Tesla energy install. I am using the Tesla low profile 325w panels (which cost more) Finally got the design back.
