    Sold SoCal - Model 3 OEM 20" Uberturbine Rims + Pirellis

    Selling the Model 3 Uberturbine Rims and Tires with ~5k miles. I took the opportunity to decontaminate and ceramic coat them. One rim has a small chip and another has a small scratch. They come with a set of new and unused TPMS that I swapped in (keeping my original TPMS). $2200 OBO - local...

    Discussion: Tesla Energy / Auto Customer Service

    I got a technician's personal cell from his visit last month. Said he's willing to help solve the problem which is quite lucky for me and had engineering monitor my system this week. On the service side, I sent a pretty strong email about providing warranty work within 30 days (cited CA state...

    Discussion: Tesla Energy / Auto Customer Service

    Same here ! I'm in LA. Installed July 2022 and PTO last month. Always had production issues and half my system has been down since October. It really sucks to be paying the loan AND pay a sizable electricity bill. I figure, at least I got PTO under NEM 2.0 and time. So many people are...

    M3P Tire Selection in SoCal

    This is what I did - ended up get the 18" ev01+s (specific M3P fitment) from a member here and mounted the new bridgestone weatherpeaks. The extra meat definitely absorbs the crappy roads better than the 20's and I can't tell much of a difference in road noise. Maybe 3-5% better efficiency...

    Discussion: Model 3 Price reductions - Jan / April / Oct 2023 and all other pricing discussions

    I'd definitely like to come up on EAP or FSD and would add to the mob if invited. Personally, I felt pretty bad about "being a sucker" for about a day and then I remembered that I was in a position to afford it and got to enjoy the car in 2022. It won't stop me from buying the CT if that ever...

    17kw solar production never topped 65kwh/day in August - normal? (Sunny SoCal)

    Ah I see - that could be it: System Design | Powerwall Support That said, if you had tesla do your solar, you should be on powerwall+ because you'd be on tesla inverters if I'm not mistaken. I'm sure you're aware but just in case, these were the instructions to log into the gateway and find...

    Does new My Q integration need any hardware if you already have a My Q GDO?

    Just linked my car to myQ this morning - so effing slick with the open and autofold mirrors on approach.

    17kw solar production never topped 65kwh/day in August - normal? (Sunny SoCal)

    Dang - sorry for the late reply. My data analyst wife couldn't get it to work, so I bribed my software dev friend with some beers and food. He was having trouble too. I had no idea what was going on but it seemed like he was hung up on some commands as well. It seemed like we had to throw a...

    17kw solar production never topped 65kwh/day in August - normal? (Sunny SoCal)

    I’ve never seen any clipping. The days have been hot and so we have been using more than we produce as we run the AC and charge the car a lot. Also have 3 powerwalls and am on self-powered mode so we haven’t had many days limited by full charge (though I have seen it and it does suck lol).

    17kw solar production never topped 65kwh/day in August - normal? (Sunny SoCal)

    That’s good info! I will have to take that to Tesla when I get my PTO. My experience mirrors yours - my advisor asked me to contact service and service said they wouldn’t do anything until after PTO so it looks like I’m stuck for a few months (or more lol). Oh well…haven’t been asked to fund...

    17kw solar production never topped 65kwh/day in August - normal? (Sunny SoCal)

    It's been a couple months and it seems like my 17kw system should be making more. I modeled this out with pvwatts and it seems like I should still be making more than I am (been making in the 50's recently). Tesla hasn't been to helpful when I give them info from the modeling. They claimed...

    Inflation Reduction Act - Tax Rebates on Home Upgrades

    Per this (thanks @MontyFloyd ) https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/5376/text HUD seems to be the gatekeeper... https://www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/il/il2022/select_Geography.odn If you're in LA like me, here's what it spits out: 91,100*1.5= $136,650 ...dual income...

    Inflation Reduction Act - Tax Rebates on Home Upgrades

    I'm trying to figure out what kind of tax breaks come with this bill for folks like us. I'm going to have to update this as we learn more... I think this is the best summary: The Electric Explainer: Key programs in the Inflation Reduction Act and what they mean for Americans Some key points...

    How to run a 11.4kW system beyond the 7.7kW limit?

    How did it work out? I'm having trouble getting them to buy off on my issues. They claimed that the install supervisor is aware of the deviations on how the strings are connected but claims that it'd have no impact on performance. Still maxing out at ~9kwh / 60kwh/day on my 17kwh...

    How to run a 11.4kW system beyond the 7.7kW limit?

    Thanks for the update! From what I understand, the on-site electricians wired it differently than the office engineers planned. Inverters didn’t work at all when wired per engineer specs so they wired it back. They don’t have my deposit so I’m not too concerned yet lol

    How to run a 11.4kW system beyond the 7.7kW limit?

    How has it worked out for you? I have basically the same system w/ 3 powerwalls but I can't get more than 9.6kwh at peak and ~65kwh in a day. The install team had to come back to rewire something from the panel array to the inverter but were unsuccessful and wired it back. I'm quite certain 2...

    Road trip a Brand New M3P?

    That's great to hear. I took delivery of my M3P a few weeks ago and it came the same day as our trip to Vegas. Worked out great. If you made it this far without issues, then there's likely very little chance of any issues popping up for the rest of your trip. That's good your mom's doing better!
