    Unicorn Dust Powerwall 3.0 [Speculation]

    It's a number with nothing complicated behind yet - and it yes, it came from a fudge-factor for the cost of installation and maybe even some opportunity cost sprinkled in for good measure. Feel free to use your own number(s). The goal was to keep things simple to explain the point of doubling...

    Unicorn Dust Powerwall 3.0 [Speculation]

    I agree - the PW2 is a nice product. Another way it could get even better would be to increase it's useful lifespan. Currently the warranty sits at 10 years. $7500 / 10 years / 365 days / 13.5 khw / 0.9 efficiency = ~$0.17 per kwh time shifted. If the 10 years doubles to 20 years, that price...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Since some folks seem eager for Tesla to be spending all of its cash, I wanted to share a thought. It takes cash to run a company. Cash in their bank account is not like cash in your account or mine. They use cash to run the business day to day to day and week to week, and this is especially...

    Yet Another MCU Failure Post

    Wow, if I didn’t know better, these could have been my posts. 2014 Model S. In the past few weeks, upon restart, the air vent would click a fair amount, and I was quickly losing cell service after reboot. On Saturday (my first mistake – Service Centers weren’t open), I rebooted and the screen...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    If not already posted, from The WaPo: "House Democrats unveil ambitious climate package, steering toward a net-zero economy by 2050" https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2020/06/30/pelosi-climate-plan/ The proposals would mandate electric utilities be net-zero emitters of...

    MCU1 performance improvement & browser improvement. Simple trick by Thomas The Tesla Tuner..

    I'll re-iterate another user's perception in another thread that v10 (2019.32.11.1) does appear snappier when it comes to things like navigation. I've long since given up on the browser (I prefer my phone anyway), but still happy to see our cars continuing to improve many years on!!

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Ooh! Can we short them? Sounds like they will be bankwupt soon! Not an advice.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Not sure how I feel about posting this given the illustrious author and periodical (LL & BI), and if it was previously mentioned, apologies, but not good if some of this is true (skepticism is welcome): Insiders describe a world of chaos and waste at Panasonic's massive battery-making operation...

    TSLA Market Action: 2018 Investor Roundtable

    And in Manhatten, imagine the melodious sounds of car horns, bleating their turne, echoing throughout the groves of buildings, without so much as an exhaust note to diminish their call of the urban jungle ;)

    TSLA Market Action: 2018 Investor Roundtable

    I had the same question. Renewable energy in the United States - Wikipedia Looks like we're turning around, but it also looks like our renewable energy growth needs to dramatically accelerate. Also, this is just electricity and does not appear to include all the other types of energy consumption.

    TSLA Market Action: 2018 Investor Roundtable

    So typical of the shorts to leave out the part of the picture that doesn't agree with their narrative... full picture attached for those interested.

    [updated with *] P85D 691HP should have an asterisk * next to it.. "Up to 691HP"

    Long time reader, first time poster (so let's see if this works:). If this has been mentioned before, please forgive me, as it was new to me. Looks like the battery limit is now being included as part of Tesla's website vernacular - a step in the right direction, in my eyes, when it comes to...
