    Confused about charging in off-peak hours

    I have been using the app by Optiwatt to manage my charging schedule for a couple of years now which offers far more flexibility than the built in Tesla scheduling and provides a lot more information in terms of your charging history and associated electricity costs. Once you link your Tesla...

    SoCal Edison "TOU-D-PRIME" Super Off Peak - How to take advantage of the lower rates?

    I'm also on the Tour-D-Prime. I use the free 3rd party Optiwatt app to manage charging so that it only charges when rates are cheapest (in my case between 8am and 4pm and 9pm and 8am during the winter). To do this you have to link your Utility Provider and Utility Plan in the Optiwatt profile...

    2021 Model Y SR Range Loss (or lack thereof)

    I also have a 2021 Y SR with 36K miles. Recently had the battery checked at the service center and these are the notes they gave. I charge almost exclusively Level 2 charge to 80% since I took delivery of the vehicle in March of 2021.

    Flat tire replacement for stock 19" Gemini?

    I replaced the two rear tires on my Model Y at America’s Tire just 3 weeks ago (ref. my earlier post), and last week tore into the sidewall of one of them on a damaged curb. Fortunately I purchased the warranty certificate and America’s Tire (AKA Discount Tire outside California?) replaced it no...

    How many miles did your original Factory OEM tire last before replacing? (Miles/Wheel Type/ Size/ Tire Brand)

    Just had to replace the rear Continental OEM tires on my 2021 Model Y SR at 27K miles. They were at 4/32. Still have a few thousand miles left on the front. Paid $900 all for the replacements at America’s Tire in Pasadena

    iPhone 14 Pro Max in Model Y

    yes charging an iPhone 14 Pro Max works (to a point) in some Model Y’s and not in others. So far no clear silicone cases will charge my iPhone 14 Pro Max on my 2021+ Console Refresh Model Y (have tried 5 different clear cases so far including the Apple Clear Silicone MegaSafe). Phone charges...

    iPhone 14 Pro Max in Model Y

    Bit the bullet and paid $49 for the Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max Clear Case MagSafe and it would not charge so its been returned and back to the drawing board for me again (this is the 5th clear case I have tried and so far no dice!).

    iPhone 14 + wireless charging pad

    This case seems to work for some and not others (another user reported it only works when upside down in the charging pad). I guess its luck of the draw. Still have not found a clear case that works in the charging pad consistently for everyone with 2021+ center console refreshed Model Y.

    iPhone 14 Pro Max in Model Y

    They both look to be the same case to me. One from the UK Amazon store and one from the US amazon store. Only difference is white vs graphite? Can’t understand what the difference could be?

    iPhone 14 + wireless charging pad

    I got the case on Amazon Prime so I'm returning and getting a refund. Have you had any luck finding a clear case that charges?

    iPhone 14 + wireless charging pad

    This issue seems to be isolated to the iPhone 14 Pro Max. My wife has the iPhone 14 Pro and have found a couple of clear cases that charge fine.

    iPhone 14 Pro Max in Model Y

    Received the Spiegen Ultra Mega Fit graphite case yesterday and tested it out but unfortunately it does not charge so its back to the drawing board. This is the 4th clear plastic/tpu case I have tried and so far none of them have worked (although this was the only MegaSafe version). Perhaps the...

    iPhone 14 + wireless charging pad

    The OEM wireless charging pad on the X is a different design than the Y, so I don't think I'll chance the Casekoo your using. According to Finnster, the Spiegen Ultra Mega Fit works on the Model Y 2021+ OEM charging pad so I'll give that one a try (cost is about the same at USD $25). Thanks!
