    Hawaiian Electric forcing export of our solar?

    Can anyone help me diagnose why I'm occasionally catching energy exported to the grid mid-day even when I have plenty of capacity on my 6 PWs? On Friday my system generated 69.6 kWh and expired 26 kWh. I estimate I lost over 20 kWh that should have gone to the batteries. Energy production was...

    Window regulator motor interchangeable?

    I accidentally bought a rear window regulator motor when I needed one for the front window. Anyone know if there's anything that can be swapped between the two so this new motor could be used in the front?

    Help, Window Regulator Motor Faulty?

    Has anyone had to replace their window lift motor in their Model S? I bought a window regulator from Napa for around $100. I assumed it came with the motor but I was wrong. I installed the new regulator using the old motor. My window still only raises about an inch and then just stops. It...

    Should I upgrade to 6 Powerwalls?

    I have an order in to add 12 solar panels and 4 PW to my existing 44 panels and 2 PW. That is about 4.4 KW added to a ~17 KW spec'd 18 month old install.

    Ugh, sorry for the rookie request here. Can someone tell me where this white electrical connector plugs in? This is the side door after the door panel was removed. I was serving the window regulator on my 2015 Model S 70D. As I was trying to figure out why the window electrical was giving me...

    Window won't go up after decalibration

    BL - My front driver side window will no longer roll up. It rolls down ONLY when you open the door, going down about 1 inch each time. It does NOT go back up when I close the door... The window is about halfway open now and going lower each time I open that door. Again, the switch for that...

    Tesla Solar App Alternatives?

    I am considering Tesla Solar App alternatives.

    2 Tesla Solar Installs on same roof?

    Does anyone have experience with increasing their Tesla PV system? Tesla is telling me I may have to use two different Tesla logins to monitor the 1st and 2nd system. They're not even promising the two systems will work together, unclear if the old solar will be connected to the new PW. Are...
