Separate names with a comma.
As I understand it, the theory was that a potential windfall up to $9/kWh during an emergency was supposed to be incentive for power producers to...
Only people who signed up for certain variable rate plans with retail providers such as Griddy, which is uncommon. They gambled that there...
I read on the Tesla website and elsewhere that the federal tax credit applies to battery storage added to an existing solar PV system as well as...
I have an existing solar PV and wish to add Powerwall. In a city where both Tesla Energy and 3rd party installers sell Powerwall, does anyone have...
This appears to be the same bill that this representative introduced last session. It did get a committee hearing and several of us testified...
Actually it's shorter than that-- 140 day sessions unless a special session is called. Presumably part of the deal was the leadership would...
This looks to be the parking garage where Tesla has always had a row of HPWCs for the test drive cars on the lower level.
I see you’re new here. The Tesla supercharger map has always been more aspirational than informational.
No, the land is not owned by the school district.
Do you really not understand how the tax incentives work? The school district will be getting millions of dollars more in taxes over the life of...
Alternate headline: Left-wing advocacy group opposed to tax incentives continues to claim that schools "lose" revenue that never existed .
No, it has an OPTION on land just outside Austin. Tesla won't purchase the land until the county and school district approve the tax incentives....
The Samsung fabrication plant that makes Tesla's FSD chips is only 14 miles away.
You're a little late to the party. See the other threads.
The Austin area site being considered was identified today. It’s not the Hutto one, it’s 2100 acres east of Austin at Texas 130 and Harold Green...
You don't necessarily need the windows "tinted", but you do need heat rejection film. The ceramic films such as 3M crystalline or XPEL Prime can...
You’re thinking of taking the advice of some random person on the internet over what Tesla recommends?
It all goes back to the Texas legislature being a wholly owned subsidiary of the Texas Auto Dealers Association. To get around the prohibition on...
The outlet alone costs more than $50 if you’re using a high quality one such as Hubbell which is what Tesla recommends: HUBBELL HBL9450A AC...
“Austin” doesn’t mean within the city of Austin, just as the Berlin factory isn’t in Berlin. The area being talked about for an Austin factory...
The property is off of TX 130 which bypasses I-35 through Austin. Traffic heading north from that factory site wouldn’t hit I-35 until north of...
Yes, I’ve been doing this since 2013 as have many early owners. The “Mobile” in Mobile Connector a capability, not a requirement. Note that it’s...
I reported this to Tesla last week, apparently they haven’t been out to fix it yet. 4A and 4B had no power, another one was knocked off the base,...
I’ve been charging there since 2013 and would disagree with all these statements. I’ve never seen it ICEd. It’s not a Holiday Inn, and the Mexican...
No, but he could call his counterpart at Rudy’s in Webster, or Houston 290 location, etc. to find out who their contact is. Or Rudy’s corporate....
Who cares? If a Tesla owner is using Plugshare to find where to supercharge there’s some education that needs to be done.
Take that, Red!
Yes, navigate to the supercharger you want to stop at.
It’s a cumulative effect. Once or twice wouldn’t be measurable, but don’t make a habit of it.
Yes. Everyone here know why. A little reading about charging, either here and/or on the Tesla web site, will give you the answer. Home Charging...
Your battery stores energy, not “miles”. Drive the EPA test cycle and you’ll get the rated range. Otherwise, as they say for gas cars, YMMV.
No, Tesla doesn’t “like” to do this. It only happens when the property owner requires it, usually because of zoning laws regarding number of...
There’s more than the battery to think about, there’s the whole charging circuitry and battery management system. It’s not designed to work that way.
This is what Tesla has said since day 1. The early Model S cars had a postcard inside which said “Remember— A connected Model S is a happy Model...
A little research would have given you this information. And no, you didn’t trade in for “2020” because it’s not 2020 yet. Tesla doesn’t do model...
Maybe it’s stuck because you’re calling it the wrong name. It’s 120V, not 110V, for at least the past 50 years. Seriously, just pull harder.
Third party apps should come with a warning label that it’s dangerous to your mental health as it causes battery obsession. What you’re seeing is...
Perfectly normal. New batteries lose a few percent capacity early on and then it levels off to about 1% per year. Also the range reported is just...
You’re paying way too much attention to a couple of miles one way or the other of estimated state of charge.
You do get a pop up warning if the charge level remains set at 100% for a few days.
Don’t bother. Long term storage means months, not days.
The UMC won’t hang properly unless it’s plugged in with ground on top. Have him fix it. Here’s the installation guide from Tesla for 14-50 outlet:...
This is normal. It’s also why service is so backed up, because new owners don’t understand that it’s normal for displayed range to vary (it’s just...
There is no such recommendation. Tesla recommends the opposite- plug in when you can, and specifically says to NOT wait until the battery is low...
That’s because the chart is for recently made cars, with 72A charger as the largest one available. Notice the 72A and 80A settings give the same...
If this is your first half-day here, you should spend it reading and learning rather than posting.
You don’t need to worry about “battery health”. Let the battery management system manage the battery and just enjoy your car. Make your life...
Drive 180 miles rather than 18 miles and see what your Wh/mile is and how much range you use. Your energy consumption is higher on a short trip.
I was referring to the reporting out to 5 significant figures.
Your battery doesn’t store “miles”. It stores energy. The miles reported is based on driving the EPA test cycle. Drive faster than that, and your...
