    Powerwall % Degradation

    Just curious what is the % degradation of PW especially for those who have it for several years. I have my PW+ for 21 months and it's mounted outdoor. I'm on TOU and usually drain it to 10% or less daily. So far, the app is telling me there's only 1% degradation.

    Service Calls from Tesla All of the Sudden

    Out of the blue, I got two calls from Tesla today. One is to check the neurio meter connection and another one to set up a service appt to refill the coolant in PW. I didn't realize that there's coolant in the PW as well. I always worried about the coolant refill/leaking issues from the inverter...

    SCE Annual True Up Questions

    I will be reaching my 1st annual SCE true up in May 2023. The SCE bill is currently showing: If I've been reading correctly, I won't get the $1K+ credit at true up, instead I will be paid only ~ $0.03 per kwh. Thus, I think I need to use up as much credits as possible before May. My system is...

    Nuerio Device Connection Issue

    I have the PW+ with the inverter. Due to the local fire and building safety codes, Tesla wasn't able to install the PW+ with inverter close to the main panel and gateway of my main house. They installed the PW+ w/inverter 30-40 ft away(by my detached garage) from the gateway. So the neurio...

    Try to decide SCE TOU 4-9pm or PRIME D

    My system is pending inspections and PTO. Tesla is filling TOU 4-9 in the PTO paperwork and had me signed. I think I can request SCE to change it when Tesla submits the paperwork. I can't tell which TOU plan makes more sense for me, TOU 4-9 pm or TOU Prime? I have a 10 kW system with 1 PW. I...

    Testing Off Grid Feature

    Got my 10kw system with 1 PW+ installed a few days ago. Whole house back up, no PTO, in self consumption mode. I just tested the "go off grid" feature. My AC started and ran just fine. I also turned on the microwave at the same time, I noticed that the microwave seems to run slower like running...

    Installing EV Charger now or Wait till Solar + PW is installed?

    So, my 10.2kw + 1 PW+ system order since Sept 2021 is still pending installation. The permit is finally approved 2 weeks ago but Tesla is giving me installation date of June 2022....I'm glad that NEM 3 date is being postponed now so I have more time, I almost gave up the project at one point. I...

    How to get earlier installation date?

    Ok, my whole Tesla solar project is getting more and more ridiculous as it goes, I'm almost giving up at this point. I've made many calls to them along the way to push things forward. I placed the order since early Sept last yr. 1) Took them 5 weeks to send me the first design. 2)Took another 2...

    Powerwall at South Facing Location

    Long story short, Tesla's original design was to install 1 PW+ inside of my garage. We might turn the garage into living space so we don't want PW+ inside the garage. I proposed 4 other alternative locations around my house with detailed pictures. After waiting for a few weeks, despite of my...

    Tesla is allowing the option of no Power Wall again

    Just FYI, I placed my order two days ago and noticed that Tesla is now allowing no power wall option, it's not a compulsory buy. I'm in SoCal, not sure if this is area based.

    Is 1 PowerWall better than No PowerWall?

    I've been going back and forth on whether to get PW or not. I'm in SoCal, with SCE and plan to get 8.16 kW solar panel. The prob is 2 PWs' ROI will take too long to recoup the cost. My goal of getting PW is to offset peak hour usage, not for blackout. From what I have read in last few months...
