    *Brand New* Powerwall 2 Founder Series and Gateway 2 and Accessories For Sale

    My install was a replacement upgrade to a grid tie battery back Outback system. I already had the net metering agreement with the utility which is the usual hold up. I just had to work with Tesla and my electrician who Tesla considers a third party installer. It all worked out and the system...

    *Brand New* Powerwall 2 Founder Series and Gateway 2 and Accessories For Sale

    I wish Tesla sold the Powerwalls either directly or thru a distributer. I self installed mine and for me it was fairly easy. I did hire an electrician for the planning and install but we worked side by side shoulder to shoulder. I had the Powerwall mounted and the main breaker panel cleaned out...

    I have no idea if tesla would approve that set up. My install started out of the recommended range but has grown to be compliant. I started with referral powerwalls purchased from forum members.

    Best way to connect 17kW of solar PV to one Powerwall?

    It can not handle charging16.5kw only 5kw. There is no damage it just turns your solar off. 16.5kw of solar will be on more than 1 breaker. Shut off 2/3 of it and it will play nice in a grid down situation. Leave it all on in the grid interactive mode and save up for more powerwalls. Where I...

    *Brand New* Powerwall 2 Founder Series and Gateway 2 and Accessories For Sale

    At work we have some data loggers that operate on lithium batteries. They are charged from alkaline batteries. Sometimes the alkaline will burn all the way down so it can not chare the lithium. Then the lithium get discharged below it's happy range. The charge protection circuit sees too low of...

    I first started driving with a motorcycle. I even had my motorcycle license before my auto license. I have put hundreds of thousand miles on motorcycles. Driving a Model 3 changed me. After a year in the model 3 I sold my last Harley. I now have been without a motorcycle for over a year. I...

    Ohmmu 12V Battery Feedback

    The reset procedure barely works. I went thu it and it did clear the error message but by morning it popped up again. I put Ohmmu battery in in December since my lead acid was 3 years old. I might put the lead acid one back in this weekend since it is still serviceable. I don't like annoying...

    Climbing MT Washington

    There is no reason a RWD 3 would have difficulty. Just watch the weather it is very late in the season. The auto road could be closed at ant time due to snow or ice. Two years ago I took my new model 3 dual motor up there in early October with no issues. There was some rim ice at the top but the...

    Climbing MT Washington

    The chargers at the bottom are pretty slow destination chargers. Top off in Ashland at the fast super charger or Franklin or Lincoln. Ashland works best for me. You really want range in the battery so you can enjoy the area and not worry about range. The ride over the kankamongus is great don’t...

    What can I do with a spare Tesla Gateway and no Powerwall?

    The last Tesla Powerwall Gateway 1 sold on Ebay 2-4-21 for $299. I just installed a system with a Gateway 1. The gateway 2 has a few better wiring options with the internal available panel but is not really that much better. The only feature the gateway 1 lacks is a remote off option for the...

    The person I purchased it from owned a company and had a shipping account with Estes Freight. I don't know the freight price. It shipped to where I work and I loaded it into my Model 3 and brought it home. They do fit in a model 3 in the box.
