    Tesla energy portion gone from Tesla app

    During about half the call with rep he was clicking away at keyboard and at times talking me through / talking to himself about what he was seeing / doing ( other half he had me on hold once he figured out the issue of a typo on my account email) anyway he gave me impression that the account...

    Tesla energy portion gone from Tesla app

    Tesla energy portion gone from Tesla app

    so this was solved .. how solved not that interesting called energy support (duh) pressed final option for powerwall support (not app support) reason the support tech gave was that my account email was entered incorrectly in one of their systems .. he stated recent updates ... they had added...

    As title states about 12 hours ago energy section from app disappeared, car still shows but cannot swipe to see energy section app. I waited overnight too see if it was just a Tesla thing and would work itself out .. found short thread where someone advised to sign out app/ remove app sign back...

    Model 3 normally charges at 237-239v but at 231v now?

    this worried me as well when i first had my model 3 and home connector .. when maxed out at 48amp the pattern i see is winter spring months low as 240v high as 246v .. summer time high as 241v low as 236v ..(we have gas heating in this area in winter and hot summers for AC use) lowest voltages...

    PW owners, summer is coming/here. What is your reserve percentage?

    yes mine is enabled as well .. i did not see anything in my paperwork from SCE (utility) stating I could not ... though I did just quickly read through it when the app enabled this feature

    PW owners, summer is coming/here. What is your reserve percentage?

    i dont personally have option to export from batt only new option to charge from grid outside of storm watch i believe system would export to grid until peak time is over or you hit reserve whichever happens 1st .. others may be able to give real world use answers
  15. Electrph

    PW owners, summer is coming/here. What is your reserve percentage?

    timely question .. now that I can charge from the grid and i switched to time based controls from self powered my reserve seems less important .. lowest it hits is ~ 72% from running exclusively on batt 4-9 .. then at 8am powerwall charges up to 100%

    New Construction - Conduit prep for future panels and PW setup

    Did you request utility permission before installing L2 charger?

    i installed level 2 tesla charger myself w/ supervision from electrician relative .. had local county inspect / approve (this was mostly my peace of mind / homeowners insurance) .. only way i can see utiltiy caring is if your L2 (as stated above) puts you over total panel capacity .. even then...

    bollards on garage side wall in Riverside county, ca?

    your pw placement is almost identical to mine ..(if i squint my eyes and pretend you have an unfinished garage and standard concrete floors 😤) .... point is wall of powerwalls are at least 2 feet back from car door garage . even with 6" thickness of pw you would have to veer to left coming in to...

    bollards on garage side wall in Riverside county, ca?

    I think what chaps my and maybe other’s hides, these are not installed in public areas .. these are people’s private garages. If you cannot manage to not ram into essentially what is your own wall at speed … I think you need more than a bollard in your life ..I and many I know have somehow for...

    Powerwalls in standby mode since app update

    If its a gateway 2 has recessed “Click” type button in a hole can’t miss it … I find plastic or wooden chopstick works great the full restart process should be on tesla website that’s where I found it basically you are shutting off solar at inverter / shutting off inverter breaker shutting off...

    Powerwalls in standby mode since app update

    As above try doing a “full reboot” of system this happened to my system after a powerwall ? update .. stuck in a loop that resulted in batts standby Rebooting just the gateway did not fix problem .. had to shut down everything (main breaker and all) then after restart working normally

    SolarEdge Inverter Replacement

    if you search i know there are a few ppl on these boards who have also gone directly thru solaredge / had inverter diagnosed / replacement sent .. Tesla still needs to come out and replace it but at least that gets process going .. yes tesla does not have good rep for timely service in this...

    Tesla solar installed today. Can I turn on

    with just solar unless there is a setting in the tesla to prevent export to grid (i'm not familiar with non pW tesla systems) it would be difficult to not export .. you would have to run the pv (panels) only when your household consumption is higher than you pv production (not very practical)...

    Tesla solar installed today. Can I turn on

    do you have power wall(s) ? if so as stated above you can turn off main service breaker (to grid) and "island" you system . zero chance of exporting if you are a zero risk person like me if you like to live dangerous . . you can just switch it all on and export / claim ignorance if anyone calls...

    Tesla solar installed today. Can I turn on

    i don't think the home gateway or any system I know of would know not to export to grid due to work being done upstream ... if grid is available and there is excess pv it will export

    Adding Circuits to Tesla Panel?

    Tesla App connection down (California)

    yes in hindsight 3 pw would have fit perfect on wall and a loaded roof of pv panels would have been awesome ... but could be worse we could be saying "i wish i would have bought that tesla system last year before prices went up / nem maybe changed / e rates up"

    missed this OP in feb i have 2 pw in garage on a wall not directly opposite living space as well as a HPWH in garage just so you know comparing the most quiet HPWH (which i supposedly have) to even 10 powerwalls is like comparing the sound of a screaming child to a chihuahua yawning .. even...
