Just noticed that Tesla has removed this "coming soon" site from their supercharger map. It used to say it was slated for Q3 2023. Is there anyone nearby that knows if this has stalled? Sure looked like it was moving forward based on the posted photos.

Any news on this charger? Seems to be sitting with no activity to try to get it completed. Would be nice if it were completed for holiday travel.

Well, thought I'd share that it took 9 months of wait time, but I just had my third Powerwall 2 installed. Signed a contract with a local certified installer out of Gainesville, FL back in June of 2021. Final install was completed March 17th, 2022. Might have paid a bit more to go this route...

If I use July as an example (the last full month of production), it would be about 2,780 kWh that were not produced over 70 days. Our rates are pretty low, so my guess is our electric bill was $280 or so more during that time. The biggest loss for us was the stress of not having any way to...

Well, I now have the answer to my own question. 10 weeks or 70 days for a Tesla service tech to show up and replace your inverter. Just arrived at 10:00 AM local time. He said it would take about 90 minutes to switch it out. After all the speculation of what the replacement inverter would...

My inverter has a display and it shows as attached. I'm guessing the new inverter may not have the screen.

UPDATE (3 Weeks since Failure): I'll do my best to keep this clean. Received an e-mail from Tesla that I should schedule my service call through the app. I suspected this meant the inverter was received by Tesla. Tried to request a service call in the app, but that failed about 4 times, so I...

PROGRESS UPDATE (Day 14 without solar production): Spoke with SolarEdge Support again this morning, business day 8 since the RMA was approved. Inverter has still not shipped, but is "being prepared" for shipment. So much for the 5-7 business day shipping window.

This may offer some clue. It shows some leakage from the grid back to the Powerwalls. It also shows some leakage from solar even though the inverter is fried. I've also noticed that the system_status api shows the nominal energy remaining is going up at night and down during the day. More up...

Getting back on topic, I've noticed something after about a week with no solar to charge Powerwalls. When I lost solar on 8/4, I changed my customization to Back-up Only to preserve whatever battery I had in case of a power outage. My reserves were around 94% at that time. After seven days of...

Mine is outside on the north side of the house. Should stay cooler there than in the garage which can get to 100 degrees since it faces west. My error code is 18xB7. I’ll have to ask if they know the specific reason for failure.

UPDATE: Talked with SE again this morning. RMA approved on 8/7. Replacement inverter has not shipped yet. Support Rep said that he was told it takes 5-7 business days to ship. It's been 5 business days as of today. Should ship early next week to Tesla Energy in Orlando, 90 minutes from my...

Yeah, I tried that and SolarEdge quickly referred me back to Tesla since they had opened a case with them. All I could get from SE was they approved the RMA and had not shipped the inverter yet. SolarEdge would not give me a timetable for shipment. Back to Tesla today gives me the canned "4-6...

After reviewing previous threads, I didn't see much on the expected repair timeline for a SolarEdge HD Wave inverter failure. Mine died last Wednesday, August 4th. Perfect timing for a tropical storm headed our way this weekend. Inverter was installed in April 2019. Any recent experience...

I recently worked with a neighbor who had his 2 PW system installed about 6 months before mine in April 2019. I showed him how to access the system status. Both of his PW's were showing capacity in the 13's. My 2 PW's are in the 10's as of today. I agree with you that there is no way my PW's...

Just logged into the TEG with the info provided above. After 26 months, my 2 Powerwalls have nominal full pack energy of 20,247. The first has 10,165 and the second 10,082. This is slightly lower than the 20,520 Tesla told me when I started this string. Thanks to all for the easy way to...

Now, I hit this level every night due to our AC running with the warmer weather. I don't hit in in milder temps. If we expect multiple days with heavy cloud cover, I raise the reserve to give us at least 4 hours of backup.

Just a follow up to my original post. Powerwall Support contacted me from my service request through the app. Their research shows each Powerwall now has a capacity of 10.3 kWh's. So 76% of original, and as they are quick to point out, above the 70% warranty number. I told them I was...

Thanks for the tip. Both batteries appear to be operating normally, just their capacity to store energy is reduced. Lights are pulsing as usual as they charge and discharge. Good thought and something to keep an eye on.

I appreciate what you're going through. I also share your expectations that the PW's will degrade below 70% in due time. Since I'm in Florida, my reserve changes depending on cloud cover, thunderstorms, hurricane season, etc., but nothing that should cause them to degrade this fast. I have...

Thanks for the recommendation. I contacted Tesla and they are able to pull the capacity for each PW. They pulled mine and after two years, my usable capacity is down to 10 kWh's per battery. So at 74% of original capacity, they see no issues at this point. There is no way to measure this on...

Understood, just wanted to see if I was looking at this correctly before I make the call. I put in a service request in the App and waiting for them to respond.

First time poster, long time visitor. I'm trying to understand the current energy retention level of my 2 year old Powerwall 2's. They don't seem to be holding the kWh's I expect. I'll share some numbers I've got and would like to hear from others if I'm looking at this the right way. My two...
