The Demo is intended to help sell the product, or such is my interpretation of the promotional email urging me to try the demo and buy the product. As such it seems to me that while it is certainly imaginary it should not be misleading.

No, nothing specific to my home, and that doesn't matter. The contradictions are within the data shown.

I have a Model Y, as well as solar panels and Powerwalls installed by Tesla. I am quite happy with both. Of course I run the Tesla app on my iPhone. Overall I am more impressed with the way the app supports the home (solar/Powerwall) than the car. Despite having Tesla solar and Powerwalls...

Following the route prescribed by the navigation in my MYLR, I was southbound on Rt 15, Wilbur Cross parkway, exiting at exit 63. Left at the end of the ramp was fine. BUT, when I reached the intersection with Bishop St, it told me to turn right! Left would have taken me toward my...

I turned on FSD while northbound on Rt 15 here in CT. It left the parkway at exit 65 as it should, and made a left at the end of the ramp. Very soon it started to creep. I took control. I noticed that the speed limit on the screen was 15. Nowhere was there a sign for 15 MPH, but there were...

I've never really tried earlier versions of FSD. Today I activated 12.3.3 while returning home. I was on the Wilbur Cross Parkway (Rt 15) here in CT when I activated it. I thought the lane keeping made more small adjustments than necessary, and when it reached the exit it worked but was a bit...

I'm in CT. This was my first year participating, and as I said above my check came at the end of November. (December reduced my credit balance, and I think January will too. I should still have at least $1500 though, and I really want to know when I see that money.)

I get the same warnings, but on both sides. It just depends on which direction I'm driving in relation to the sun, and to some extent on trees. Mostly I get the warnings when the bright sun is shining through bare trees; as as the car moves the camera is going from sun to shade constantly...

My check from Eversource came last week. $250.71. No information with it, It was preceded by an email telling me it was coming. Again no information. I was expecting something like how many kWh, but no. (My November electric bill only added $65 to my credit balance, now at $1600. I...

I normally charge to 84%, and can't recall it showing any other number when it stops than 84%. Today it is at 86%, so I came here for a discussion like this. Cool, I won't worry about it. BUT, the advice about 90%, down to 20%, sentry mode, and so forth is completely new to me. I guess I...

Connecticut should be on that list. (3) at any time during periods of precipitation, including, but not limited to, periods of snow, rain or fog.

I haven't had my system very long (early December). I've been exporting the data and saving it into an Excel spreadsheet. What I noticed with the latest update to the app is that they changed the sign on some columns, specifically the sign of what goes to the grid. This was pretty confusing...

My only thought is that going up the mountains is a killer, but coming back down can recover quite a bit. Just don't get to the point of needing to use the actual brakes; drive to keep regen slowing you down. Green at the top of the screen is good.

That was my situation too when the tornado watch started here around 9:15, but around 9:45 or so (EDT) it changed to Storm Watch and started charging the Powerwalls from the grid. Charge is now at 63%, and charging at 7.8 kW.

What annoys me about the changes is when I choose the Grid option. I used to show me the Net, which as a Net Metering customer is the key number with a financial impact. How it provides the total in each direction, to and from the grid, but does not show the sum of the two, which is of most...

Under Compensation on the web page explaining the program it says: Your total compensation will be based on the average kW delivered during all event hours. My guess is that the number will be the kWh delivered, divided by the event hours. So, it is possible to track those kW, or kWh? I...

I'm so out of it I don't really have much of an idea how much I might get paid. Eventually. As for handling a power outage... As long as I am home I can probably handle it, even if the Powerwalls are down that low. Turn off the hot water and AC, unplug this and that, and then wait for...

Yes, I may opt out eventually. Since this is my first experience with the program I figure I should take time to understand it before I make any choices like that. I checked off the box, or filled out the form, when I ordered the system. Since it was another sixteen months until it was...

We see things differently. The number in question represents how much power I have remaining to backup my house in the event of a power outage. With two Powerall 2, rated at 13.5 kWh each, that 20% which was promised comes to 5.4 kWh. The 18% that is actually left is 4.86 kWh. 4.86 is 20%...

Two percent doesn't sound like much, but 18 vs 20 is ten percent below what is promised.

On Wednesday they stopped draining mine around 7:00 PM, which was when my system had nothing left to give (down to 18%).

Yes, I missed that the date was the next day. Thanks for straightening me out!

Mine got down to 18%, not the 20% that it should have stopped at. And I just got a notice that it is "preparing for a grid event", even though the general rule was that we get notice the day before, which did not happen for today. I've got lightning everywhere around here. It is loosing power...

I'm in CT, with Eversource. This is my first experience with the program. When it started at 5 PM there was a spike of 10.8 kw going out, then it was down around 6 or so for a while, now back around 10. My two powerwalls are down to 69%. If/when they draw it down as far as it will go )30%?)...

On the Tesla site, on the page that lists Tesla stores in the United States, I came across an interesting location between RI and TN. South Korea...

I had this for the first (and, so far, only) time two days ago. The car (MYLR, 2022) had been plugged in with my Tesla Wall Connector since the previous day, so when the message came up there was no charging going on*. There was nothing insecure about the connection. Unless it repeats itself...

I apologize for coming to this so late, but when I look at the app for my MYLR, and touch the lightning bolt, I get to set the car's charge limit and the max amperage it will pull when charging at home. So to charge my car without completely draining the powerwalls insanely fast you might lower...

This seems so obvious, but it appears to not be possible. I rarely have any reason to schedule my MYLR for departure, and when I do I only want it to happen once. If there is a choice beyond every day or only weekdays I haven't seen it. What happens of course is that I forget to UNschedule it...

I apologize for going off-topic, but can someone please point me to an explanation of how I can get the data in those images? My system only went active on Dec 2. I think I've explored the app pretty thoroughly, but that is all outside my experience. Thanks!

Reading about the experiences posted here, I thought I would add my own experience here in Connecticut. On the negative side, I put in the order for solar and Powerwalls at the end of July 2021. The install happened on Dec 1 & 2, 2022, 16 months later. As for the rest, the installation crews...

SOLVED. To be all set to all tech support I took both the old and new phones to the car, as well as my laptop and mouse. The old phone's Bluetooth was off, so I used the card to unlock. This time I wanted the dome light, so I used the card to get access to the screen. Then I hunted around on...

I looked at Manage Drivers in the app on the old phone. I couldn't find any way to delete it. Which is to say, to delete myself. I sent myself an invite. It told me I could not be added because I was already there.

Thanks. I haven't tried deleting the old phone. I would really like to keep being able to use it to use the car without pulling out the card. But I'll keep that in mind.

That should be 2022.44.30.5.

My iPhone 8+ was paired when I got my Model Y in November 2021 (2022 model year). Today I bought a new iPhone, a 14. Everything transferred over from the old phone, When I run the app I can access my solar/Powerwall system as before. However for the car it tells me I have to pair it. I...

Thanks! I searched the manual, obviously not very well.

My MYLR is an early 2022, delivered late November 2021. At some point I read some messages on this site about upgrading the USB drive in the glovebox. I bought a USB hub, and ended up with three drives plugged into it. Today I came back to the car and found the usual sentry mode incident...

My question on where to set the battery had more to do with avoiding damage to the battery than anything else. Once I can send excess to the grid after the Powerwalls are at 100% I think I'll set to 100% and do give-and-take from the grid with the difference between what the house needs and the...

My Solar install was last week, Thursday and Friday Dec 1&2. (Ordered late July 2021, so 16 months. This is in Connecticut.) 32 panels on a south-facing roof, and two Powerwalls (2 and +). It went great! The two crews, roof and electricians, were excellent from all I could tell. Of course...

https://electrek.co/2022/11/10/tesla-cancels-solar-projects-scales-back-division/ Now we learn that Tesla is canceling many solar projects, including some in advanced stages, and the company is saying that it shutting down operations in some markets. I'm hoping that the emails and texts...

I have a December first install scheduled, solar (10.75 KW) and two powerwalls. Your comment has be wondering whether both will have the inverter, or just one.

Good idea about the pizza, though I might have to do delivery. How big was the crew? It sounds like the panels and powerwalls are different crews.

I know this is really OT, but every have one of those things you just have to tell someone?!?!? The installation of my solar panels, and two powerwalls, is scheduled for December 1, which is 16 from when I entered the order. Hooray!

Do others carry one of the cards with them Just In Case? I do.

My experience is that patience may be necessary. I ordered solar and two powerwalls in late July of last year, 2021. At one point it had to be re-engineered, setting it back*. I send an email every month or so asking how things are going. The July reply (7/22) was that it was submitted to...

I've been parking out in the sun the last few days, but never getting more than a few yards from my car. I was tired of getting into a hot car at the end of the day, and would rather not run the AC, so I wanted the windows open. Of course after a few minutes the windows closed. A search...

I know this is an old thread, but anyway... Rather than go by the tires that are on the car, or by what Tire Rack or other retailer tells you, there is always the option of looking at the sticker on the car for what the manufacturer said when it was sold. On my MYLR it is on the frame, visible...

When using regen it is also the decelerator pedal. 8-)

So, restart rather than reboot. And restart the touchscreen, not the computer or the car. Thanks! That did it. (I could not view the attachment: The requested page could not be found.)

I just visited my brother for a couple of weeks and my Y could not see his WiFi at all, even when in his garage where the signal was pretty strong. Today I arrived home, and now it can't see my own WiFi network. So a search brought me here. I want to reboot, but the Owner's Manual doesn't...
