    2022 Model Y - Austin Giga Factory - Delivery Experience

    I picked up my Model Y the same day in CA. It was a customer refusal vehicle and bumped me up about a month on delivery so I took it. The woman I spoke to there was telling me there was a BIG push for the end of the quarter, it was crazy how many cars were at the Vallejo, CA location. Truckloads...

    UPS, part 2

    I recently had a system installed with 2 PWs and the new Tesla inverter and all of the simulated outages that I've had (turning off the main breaker) have been almost seamless. I noticed, not even a flicker but a slight dim in one of the lights but all of of my routers (mesh) and modem were...

    Received PG&E electric bill for $1,042.49!

    I am interested how adding the PWs had an impact on the bill. I just got my system installed so looking forward to seeing how it will all play out with PWs and PV.

    Existing Powerwall 2s to get 50% power capacity increase with SW update?

    I was told by a friend that works at Tesla they are going to be rolling out an all-in-one Inverter/Gateway of some sort and do away with the current Gateway for simpler cleaner installs with PWs. I have no idea exactly what this means so take it with a grain of salt but that is definitely the...

    New solar and Powerwall install, low production?

    This is exactly what I was interested in finding out. I posted a thread about it here: Panel/String Size Concerns with Tesla Inverter

    Panel/String Size Concerns with Tesla Inverter

    Yes, I was thinking the same thing for the normal days. My highest day of production has been 52kWh which I did not think I would get considering my horrible NE facing array.

    Panel/String Size Concerns with Tesla Inverter

    I recently had my 8.16kW system installed with two Powerwalls. I've been running across threads that talk about minimum string size with different inverters. From what I've found, the minimum string size with the new Tesla inverter is 5 panels. I have a 4 panel cluster running on it's own...

    New solar and Powerwall install, low production?

    I guess you could call it that? I'm really new to the solar scene so any input would be appreciated. Here is my layout. The front house cluster is 63 Azimuth the back two clusters are 243. They split the front cluster into two seperate strings I guess. Pitch is 22. I have my pool thermal...

    New solar and Powerwall install, low production?

    After reading this post, I was curious and went and took a picture of my recently installed inverter. I got a 8.16Kw system with 24 panels and 2 Powerwalls. I made sure they ran 4 separate strings and 4 seperate MPPT inputs for reasons mentioned above but never actually double checked the work...
