One option that you have is to set the times for peak and off-peak electricity. So if you know your EVs will be done charging by 3am you could set that as the start of off-peak electricity so the PW doesn't start charging till then. I've also noticed that when the PW is in the mode when it...

I'm in the UK and have cheap electricity overnight. until about 3 weeks ago I was running Advanced - Cost Saving to fill the battery with cheap electricity to be used during the day. However, the algorithm has failed me recently by only filling up based on what appears to be the last few days...

This is interesting. I've just had SMETS2 meters installed 2 weeks ago as part of the bulb rollout. I've had my Powerwall2 since November. I noticed on the "old" meter (dual-rate) that I accumulated small usage of normal rate grid power even though I was powered throughout by the Powerwall...

Thanks for your confirmation. I've since written a small utility that runs on my Raspberry Pi that allows me to set the backup percentage automatically during off-peak electricity period so that I can essentially set a minimum charge level when off-peak period ends. I implemented that...

I'm trying to work out exactly what is going on with the way my PW2 is charging from Off-Peak overnight. I've got it set in TBC cost-saving mode. Originally (over the winter) it would charge to 100% and then start discharging at the start of the expensive rate. With the increase in solar...

I've just signed up and added my car. The trips I drove yesterday were captured properly and this looks like an interesting Web app. I've noticed a few things: 1. My range is shown in rated miles even though the car is set to typical - although I think the issue is the label, not the value...

It would be interesting to know at what point you were at 80% charge (you should have got a Supercharging almost complete notification at that level) and 90%. Charging really slows down at that point and in most cases 80-90% would be enough to get you comfortably to the next Supercharger in Europe.

I got one for parking and charging on 30th December. I appealed on line with explanation of charging and also included image of my charge notifications which showed starting charge 2 minutes after entering and finishing 2 minutes before leaving. I was there for 1 hour 10 minutes total because...

Over the last couple of days, whenever I have tried to access the forums on the Tesla site, I've been redirected to the US home page.

I'll be there

Hi Joe, I also promised feedback - I tried to send you email but your server rejected my email. My message was as follows. I've just taken delivery of my car last Friday and have connected successfully using VisbleTesla. Unfortunately, I did not have the app running when I went on a trip so...

I ordered a couple of fobpockets yesterday morning. I got notification that they were shipped yesterday afternoon by US first calls post. Will see when they arrive. I thought $4.60 postage was pretty reasonable - I guess the amount was less than @smudger7's because of the size/weight.

There's now a Pioneer level which is the Model S equivalent of Viking. The Model S harness looks like it commands a $10 premium.

I presume those are the same spaces used for the Ecotricity chargers? If so, where is the box? Or have they created additional supercharger spaces?

This morning, my status had changed to "In Transit" after 2.5 week "In Production". I did get the email from my delivery specialist a couple of days ago and the prediction is currently w/c 22nd June.

Mine is still being built according to the dashboard. Will let everyone know when it changes. I'm working on the assumption that there will be a whole batch on a ship to Tilburg and then I imagine they'll come from there a few at a time on a transporter.

I'd +1 for Chievely and also would be good to get something around Nottingham on the M1 for trips to the North East from London.

My status has also changed today to "the factory is building your Model S". Starting to feel like it will really arrive now! I wonder what the status will change to once it is built and on its way across the ocean.

I spoke to one of the UK guys on Thursday last week since my dashboard page had changed to show my "preferred delivery" to be August which was not something I had done! He said that it was a problem with eh website, but that my car (VIN37065) was still showing as exiting production during week...

I have a Chargemaster 32A "Polar" Homecharge point on an outside wall by my driveway to charge my Zoe. It works fine, but clearly at 7kW will take a while to charge the Model S. I plan on keeping the Model S overnight in my garage and during a recent house extension took the precaution of...

I hadn't been told anything or received any other communication other than confirmation of receipt of my order. I still only see "we're sourcing parts" on my dashboard page.

I had a voicemail last week to inform me of a new "feature" available with no impact to price. I called them back and apparently they have changed the grain direction of the Matt Obeche wood from vertical to horizontal and wanted to let me know in case that was an issue for me (it's not)...

I'm assuming that I will be able to use my Zoe cable to charge publicly at Type 2 chargers given that most of the time my wife and I will either be using the Zoe around town or the Model S for longer trips so no "cable contention". Regarding charging through a normal wall outlet, the recent...

Hi Daniel, Sounds like an interesting trip and potentially a (good?) adventure! I don't yet have my Model S although I have confirmed my order, but I do have a Renault Zoe which uses a type 2 charging connector. In the UK, the charging infrastructure is currently somewhat fragmented and most...

I'll be there too. Went to the test drive yesterday in Savill Court hotel near Wednesday so my wife could experience a drive in the Model S. Word was that prices will be finalised and out before Christmas but they are hoping sooner than that. Availability of RHD cars is basically dependent on...

Hi Chris, yes, my email was the same as the one you and others got. I must have missed it when I looked at the forum listing!

P78 30/12/12. I received an email a couple of weeks ago saying that UK pricing is being finalized and I will be asked to complete my reservation in the next few weeks.
