    Tesla Solar Install Timeline + Question

    My understanding of the situation - my 24 panels are connected on a single string. The string splits into two near the inverter and shows up as two strings at the inverter. This means that string 1 and string 2 will always report roughly half of the production. You cant tell from the inverter...

    Tesla Solar Install Timeline + Question

    Final update - a Tesla tech came by today to take a look at the install. It turns out that, even though it looks like two strings are connected, it's really a single string that split near the inverter. Half of the panels weren't connected.

    I just logged into the inverter - same firmware number as before. I’m not sure what changed, if anything.

    Tesla Solar Install Timeline + Question

    I spoke to Tesla last week and they said they’re working on a firmware update for the inverter and to expect an improvement this week. I rebooted my inverter this morning and noticed performance has improved. It’s overcast out so I’m not see clipping yet, but it’s much better then yesterday...

    Tesla Solar Install Timeline + Question

    Yes, it’s a Tesla inverter. Navigating directly to the panel IP doesn’t seem to load. I’ll have to call Tesla tomorrow.

    Tesla Solar Install Timeline + Question

    Hi all, I wanted to share my timeline for my Tesla Solar install, as I'm seeing a number of horror stories on here, and ask a quick question. Overall I've been blown away by Tesla Solar, with one exception - how they communicate. The following is an example of my experience in the Denver metro...
