    Powerwalls - I just don't get it.

    Two things confuse me. Firstly, it's early days, but it keeps charging to 100% overnight, despite a sunny day ahead. I figure this is part of it "learning", which is fine. Except I don't think I'm helping it. As I'm using the spare sun (there's lots as it's full) to charge the cars. But of...

    Cloud Profiles

    We recently became a two tesla family. And having previously heard about the "cloud profiles", I started looking at the car and pondering how on earth it worked. That sorted itself out as soon as we were both granted access to both cars on the apps. It seemed to unlock the extra profiles in...

    Octopus Tesla and Powerwall

    I was watching a video from a US youtuber about why they shouldn't have bought a powerwall. It was quite interesting... link here: I then thought "I know octopus do a tesla tarrif, I wonder what that entails?". And found that it too is a synchronous priced tarrif. It's this: Octopus...

    Tesla Service vs Traditional Manufacturers Service

    Moderator comment - posts moved from VW ID3 configurator is live!! Which engine would you like with that? The dealers which are franchises make a massive chunk of their income from servicing. They will be desperate (and quite forceful in negotiating with the manufacturer) to ensure that that...

    Things I worry about

    Things about my tesla I worry about.... And none of them are range, nor AP. - Will the high beam work? Because if it doesn't, I don't know how to use it :) - It's rained, has it leaked like a sieve... will there be water everywhere? - Will it let me down when I go to demo the acceleration to...

    TeslaMate - Drives - max Power

    Only had one drive monitored by TeslaMate so far, and wondered what max Power refers to, on this drive it's logged as 393kW. I notice it's not kWh, or anything like that. Is that the quiv of BHP? Seems a bit high.

    FSD - rounadabouts and T-junctions

    I wonder if the reason FSD can't currently do Roundabouts or T-Junctions autonomously is because it doesn't have and sensors pointing in the right direction. Imagine a T-Junction, that's going to need things towards the nose of the car almost looking at right angles to the car (or if the car...

    Tesla - a software company that just happen to make cars

    I've heard that said many times, and to a certain extent explains why the physical cars are not normal (eg. QA etc), and the software in them is awesome. But they can't even get their own website to work properly. Yesterday after someone sorting out my trade-in properly, it said I owed...

    Charging 2 EVs - options and opinions

    If things continue to plan, we'll end up going from 2 petrol to 2 EV's at home. One a Tesla, the other not. What are your thoughts on charging them both? My current thinking is two Tesla Wall units, set to master/slave, and one of them set to non-tesla charging. Does that work with the UK...

    Order Process going wonky, any advice

    We're already a few days in to the process and things are going a bit wonky. I order last Sunday (6th Sept), and all seemed ok. Tasks were assigned which I completed the first delivery. Already on the Monday 7th Sept, I've been sent a "Delivery Appointment Confirmation" for 23rd Sept. Which...

    Wireless charging / USB-C

    Hi, Sorry if this has been asked a million times already. Are new Model 3's arriving with wireless charging/USB-C consistently yet? Or is this something that's "hit and miss", or something in the future? I'll be honest, it doesn't really bother me, I can buy a wireless matt, and I don't have...
