This is still not addressed by Edison. I've called them a number of times and keep getting told someone will contact me. I don't know how many times I've had to explain my app shows the power sent to Edison and not just the power generated. They have pushed out my bill when it is due, but still...

I'm amazed this has been going on for so long. I work in tech and I would have been fired if it took months to resolve an issue like this.

Nope.

My bills align to what the app says all the way until Feb of this year. Then they start to be very different. So I think my meter died in February and they have been using estimates since. I called SCE on Saturday about my bill dispute and I was told to call again next week if I hadn't heard...

Wow, glad I got my system last year w/o having to pay for 2 power walls.

SCE replaced the meter, but there has been nothing yet about the "bill dispute". I was told it can take 45 days to resolve. I was going to follow-up to see where it is at.

Will do. I have no idea how long they would have let it go on. I would assume they would have some type of report showing meters not providing data and would work them when they exceed a certain threshold.

SCE said they are going to open up a bill dispute which can take up to 45 days. I assume they will go by what the Tesla app shows as there is no other source for what happened.

It looks like the meter died in February and SCE has been using estimated values since then.

You win! I was going in circles with the SCE guy for a while and I finally went out to my panel to take an amperage reading. I noticed the meter's digital display is completely dead. SCE just confirmed they have been using power estimates. Odd that it doesn't indicate on the bill that it is...

Spent 2 hours trying to talk to someone who could help at SCE, but no success. Will try again tomorrow.

Ah, wish there was an indication to scroll for more info :) Ok, so if I'm understanding this correctly, the app is showing I sold a net of 851 kWh (1209-358) while SCE is saying I bought a net of 344 kWh. That is a 1,195 kWh difference, ugh....

This month I was expecting a large credit from SCE as my solar production has been more than double the home usage reported by the Tesla app. I was surprised to see that SCE is showing I consumed more power than I sold back to the grid. I thought since each grey line was larger in the...

You can start a fire with water in a plastic bag shaped into a sphere. However, the volume is quiet large and the sphere is moved a few inches away to get the correct focal length. A drop of water sitting on a panel is very small, likely the ambient temperature is going to be cooler, the sun...

Glad the rain is here. My panels needed a rinse :)
