    After doing some more digging, found this From Solarquote.com.au "Unless your local electricity network provides a local variation to a new Australian Standard that becomes mandatory on Thursday 30th, it may be illegal to install a Powerwall 2 plus solar on a single phase." Will it be...

    Has anyone obtained a Powerwall 2 installation quote yet?

    Hi 360C, very impress setup, quick question, is the setup because you want to be "green", hate paying the power companies, or a bit of both? Reason for question is instead of using your own power, you can use AGL's ($1 a day unlimited charging) to charge the Tesla and push the excess into the...

    Has anyone obtained a Powerwall 2 installation quote yet?

    Can anyone with some solar and battery knowledge clarify this. Was told that the power companies are now limiting power into the grid from homes (max 5kw), which they have been doing for some time as part of feedin tariffs, but now, they will actually count the batteries as well towards this...

    The AGL all you can charge $1 a day deal and the Wall connector

    I got back a quote of $0 dollars for install, and was waiting for the power to switch over to AGL (can take up to 4 weeks). Got a welcomed AGL SMS this morning, so from what l was told, subcontractor won't install until you are switched over to AGL and live in their system. So hopefully next...

    The AGL all you can charge $1 a day deal and the Wall connector

    I wish you could do that, unfortunately will only apply to the dedicated circuit for the tesla wall charger... if you don't want to use tesla wall charger AGL can provide a EV charger but not sure which type, but again, it will be dedicated for that role and can't be used for anything else..

    @EcoCloudIT that is a great deal you have with powershop, not available here unfortunately, plus, l average about 20kwh a day on house and a bit more than 20kwh on car each day... so AGL it is for me, as much better than anything Origin has at moment. @ICUDoc it is charged $1 a day regardless...

    The AGL all you can charge $1 a day deal and the Wall connector

    I called AGL to get details, if sign up and you do direct debit for bills... called the set and forget plan, you get a 12% discount (assume just on usage).. so may be cheaper than your usage with powershop.
