    OEM 20” tire life?

    I’m replacing by OEM 20” Goodyear on 2020 MY at 16,400 miles. Tires have been properly inflated, rotated and aligned and still haven’t lasted long. Nearly all long distance freeway driving in SoCal. Cord showing inside tread channel all the way around one tire. Goodyear said no OEM warranty...

    Tesla App Utility plan configuration: Multiple Peaks, Buy/Sell Behavior, etc

    I just switched to the app provided numbers from my own. Do you know if the sell rate numbers are correct on EVTOU5? I thought SDGE paid us an average wholesale closer to .10 cents or did I read that wrong on the website? Without figuring out the true sell number I can’t figure out if this...

    With the exception of the northbound 110 to 105 interchange in LA, most of my hard turn warnings appear to only be from trips where I entered a parking lot…90 degree turns from the street…

    Protector “bumper” for powerwalls

    I'm using these. I have 2 strips of magnetic tape on the back of them so I can move them if I need. Ampulla Garage Smith GWP02S Garage Wall Protector Car Door Protectors https://amzn.to/2TOQVjw

    Gateway updated to 21.20.2

    My V2 were rolled back to 20.49.0 I've been away from home for work and I could swear that the energy storage was lower last week before the regression. Seems like it didn't fill up as fast and drained faster. I don't have data for it through because I'm not home. Might just be my imagination....

    Looking for VP level contact, Tesla Energy, issues with PTO

    I was told to expect 13 weeks for PTO with SDGE on an existing system that I added Powerwalls to.

    Tesla inconsistency and timelines for PTO...

    Tesla told me to expect 13 weeks for PTO with SDGE for adding Powerwalls to existing solar. I got a text today saying they were "backed up."

    Strategies for Powerwalls and Utility Demand Plans

    First 2 weeks with 2 PW on existing 12Kw system. Turn on was Self Powered. Didn't used a single watt from the grid for 3 days. Pretty cool. Then came the options... Got Advanced and started using Time Based Balanced - However, I wasn't expecting it to behave the way it did because of the way...

    San Diego SDG&E users, are you getting home consumption in your mobile app?

    I can see my existing solar and my SDGE consumption from the grid using the App. Had Powerwalls installed last week.

    Cooling Strategies with PV + ESS

    It’s just the change in adding the PWs for me. My house is now charging/powering a large device and that’s new to me. We exported more than we produced before the PW. Even on rate DR. My pool equipment and AC run off solar until the sun went down with all excess going to the grid. A lot of...

    Cooling Strategies with PV + ESS

    I guess that hack is the only real choice for summer and then put it back to 4PM for winter. I wanted to try and leave it at 4PM since that's a constant year round, but it might not be possible. I'll have to look into the SmartThings App and see if I can just automate that function.

    It didn't seem to make much difference in playing around this week, but I might have to let it sit longer on a few more days and see if it sorts itself out.

    Cooling Strategies with PV + ESS

    SDGE EV TOU 5 I'm fine with it trying to maximize credits, but in this case I disagree with it's logic using storage, but it might just be me... On a non-foggy/marine layer morning, my PWs are usually full by noon. I'm shoving ~30Kwh back into the grid in the next 4 hours. AC is using approx...

    Cooling Strategies with PV + ESS

    I'm on balanced now, but my system keeps sending useable solar to the grid the first few hours of peak instead of running my house and discharging the batteries because it's on peak. That's the issue I'm trying to figure out here. I can use the AC in the early evening (4-6) but it always...

    Cooling Strategies with PV + ESS

    I'm having a similar problem. 37 panels 11.84Kw system 2 Powerwalls. SDGE On Peak 4-9 running TOU EV 5 running advanced balanced for TOU. Both PW are full well before 4PM. At 4PM the software send excess to the grid and starts discharging the PW. Sunset is about 7:30 right now and I'm making...

    Existing Powerwall 2s to get 50% power capacity increase with SW update?

    Well, got my Powerwalls today. The Tesla installers knew all about what Elon said and they said I wouldn't need a physical change to anything existing. So, I guess we'll have to wait and see. Haven't taken a single watt from the grid since they were turned on. Awesome.

    Existing Powerwall 2s to get 50% power capacity increase with SW update?

    I wonder if that could have helped my 200 Amp panel that was downrated to 175 for solar instead of having my panel replaced with a new 200 Amp panel.........

    Existing Powerwall 2s to get 50% power capacity increase with SW update?

    We will see. My line diagram from Tesla was done in October '20 and is #10 and 30. I've emailed my Tesla contact and will see if they can respond by Wednesday for what to expect.

    Significantly delayed solar project. What should I do?

    Main Panel Upgrade finaled yesterday. Tesla contacted me today, as soon as they had the final permit, and Powerwalls come in 2 weeks. I get my solar connected back that day, but they said to expect 13 weeks for the Powerwalls to be activated (PTO). That will put my total project at about 13...

    Significantly delayed solar project. What should I do?

    It's all theoretical amps... Each Powerwall is 30 amps plus the 60 amps from the solar system and you're already at 120 amps. Throw in air conditioning 50 amps, pool equipment 60 amp sub, and a Nema plug in the garage for charging and it adds up quickly before you even add in the rest of the...

    Significantly delayed solar project. What should I do?

    That sounds about right for current orders. I ordered 2 Powerwalls July 2020 and needed my 175 upgraded to 200. That pretty much ground the project to a halt. Designs were ready in October 2020. Permits for the project were approved in December 2020 and the panel upgrade actually happened...

    Powerwall shipping delays?

    Well, other than the long delay starting, I'm really happy with the electrician they sent out to upgrade my panel and install the Gateway. Looking forward to seeing if the Powerwalls come in a shorter time period. One thing I didn't expect is that I'm now without solar until the Powerwall...

    Before I screw up my Model 3 in the car wash...

    For weekly wash on my Y, I've been using the Wash Wax method and when it's extra dusty or dirty I use a foam cannon. Wash Wax method takes me about 20 minutes. A little more if I wipe the inside of the door frames down. Foam brings it up to about 40, but it's great to lift the dirt. The Wash...

    Powerwall shipping delays?

    My permits were issued in mid-December. It's taken this long for Tesla to schedule an electrician. Will be interested to see how well they pull of the panel upgrade and prep for the Powerwalls vs having it all done on the same day...
