    Powerwall dilemma -- not sure if I have any options

    Hi folks. Years ago I won one of the rare red "signed" powerwalls from the referral program. I had it installed in my home at the time as purely backup as we didn't have solar. We moved from that house in 2020 and put the red PW into storage waiting for Tesla solar to be installed at the...

    Just had 9.8kw Solar+2PW installed, have some noob questions.

    Hi folks, I'm very late to the party due to moving twice in 3 years. But we're finally in a house that can support plenty of solar without any shade and we're not moving for a long, long time. I've been spending all day reading this forum. Lots of great info. We have a new 23x425w PV...

    Looking for EV advocate organizations in NY state

    A good friend of mine owns a home in a townhouse community outside of NYC. He's on the board of the HOA, but they're trying to enact some very strict rules about EV charging. For instance, the proposed rules say you can only charge your car in your driveway between 8pm and 8am -- ostensibly...

    The Ford Model S Roadster

    Who knew this existed? We had a tour of the Malcolm Pray Achievement Center and Car Musuem this weekend, and on the wall was this poster. I was surprised to see a "1908 Model S Roadster" featured.

    P85D -- remove front bumper steps?

    Hello everyone, Can anyone point to a thread or video that shows how to remove the front bumper? Can this be a one-person job? I had a laser detector system installed (ALP), and one of the three sensors front are bad, and I don't want to go back to the shop that installed it (it's not their...

    Home 240v charging question/HPWC

    We just moved into a new house, and in the back of one of the garages was a NEMA 6-20 outlet. I think it was used for an air compressor previously. It uses 12-2 G NM-B Romex to the main panel where there's a 15 amp/240v breaker. Since the 6-20 outlet is rated for 20 amps, can I just swap in...

    Non-scheduled, TOU charging, how?

    Ok, I now live in an area with TOU rates. I also don't commute and WFH most of the time. What I want is to just tell the car: "Do not charge the car between 12pm and 8pm on weekdays. Otherwise, always charge to the pre-set charge limit". But it seems dead set on scheduling for a timed...

    New Solar install, quote vs contract?

    Last time I got solar installed in 2015 with Solarcity, I had a chance to review the contract and proposal before signing the contract and scheduling an install. In CT now, many companies are very aggressively selling solar. We had a company rep walk up this week (Monument Solar), and...

    Big lot of old-style, warped lug nuts and covers - free

    See photos. About 40 lug nuts and I think 25 lug nut covers. All 'old style'. Most are warped, a few might be "good". Not sure if anyone has any need for these. A tire shop destroyed the first set and replaced them. Then I replaced those with the 'new style' lug nuts. Free, you pay actual...

    Announcing 'EV Alert System' available for all Teslas

    Many of you may be familiar with my EV-HORN project that gave people the ability to trigger via a remote control any of 8 different sounds, loud enough to be a Pedestrian Warning Sound, but triggered manually. It was a fun device, but not really useful as an automatic PWS device. That all...

    Tesla forced an update of my P85D to 2019.16.2

    Well, they've really stepped to far this time. I am livid. I've been actively rejecting V9.0 updates to my car since V8.1-2018.18. The last time my car had an update was over a year ago (see EV-FW info below). But overnight my car got updated.. and much to my horror, shock, and surprise this...

    Founder's Powerwall Installed

    It took long enough due to a couple of schedule conflicts. Tesla originally had the install scheduled for last August, but I was on a 3-week road trip all month, so I pushed them off. Little did I know that the availability window for the NE closed for a few months, so I lost my chance. But...

    P85D and Winter tires -- what would you do?

    So I sold my P85+ earlier this year, and bought a P85D during the winter. It came with the Pirelli Sotozero winter tires mounted on 21" turbines. Lot of meat left on the tires. For the spring/summer, I took them off and put on summer tires (Hankooks Ventus EVO2s). So option #1 is to have...
