No cloud day on Dec 20. My 14.8 Kw Tesla install generated ~71 Kw. West Houston (Katy) Texas

PSA : I asked for Tesla to enable my SolarEdge account just by using the support option in the App. After a couple of weeks, today, I received the login information. Now, have to figure out how to make this public. I see @reddy has made his public. But I do not see a admin option in the...

Now, the rate is $1.49 per watt.. Wow, just wow. (Please keep this thread alive. Will be nice to see how much the costs are falling)

Folks having solaredge accounts, does it allow for your install to post data to the solaredge public monitoring site? SolarEdge

West Houston, TX. Today was my first day of production. Until yesterday, there was a problem with one of the two inverters and the whole thing did not produce. I thought the inverters were supposed to be redundant or at least independant. In any case, today, we had clouds on and off and a cold...

Today was my first day of production. There was a problem with one of the invertors and the whole thing did not produce. I thought they were independant and built for redundancy. The tech had to apply some 'updates' and the bad inverter came online. In any case, my 14.3 Kw install produced...

Centerpoint came through within a week. Is your installation up and running.

Has been 2 weeks now. Still no production. :-(. Turns out that one of the inverters is not working. Blinking green lights instead of steady green lights. The Gateway router also does not seem to work either. Tesla sent me an replacement but that is still showing 'no signal'. I thought, with one...

In a way, I am glad that I am not the only one so super frustrated with Tesla. First the gateway would not connect. The skinny pagelet which comes with the gateway router just says, plug it in. Nothing about LED lights or anything. So, I take it that that needs to work for my solar system to...

I did get an email from Tesla which started with "You are one step away from enjoying all the benefits of your Solar Panels. We have received permission from your utility company to turn on your system. You can do it in a few simple steps." with a link to a video.

XL installation in West Houston, TX. Received PTO (Permission To Operate) mail from Centerpoint and so, turned on the breakers, switched the disconnect panel to ON and turned on both the inverters. I hooked up my gateway to the router, switched on, can see white light on the router. What next...

If you are wondering about the cost to move a vent from one location to another, it cost me 350$ to move 3 vents. This is in West Houston, Texas.

My install date is this Thursday (09/24) and last week, I had a roofer move a couple of vents away from the south facing portion of the install. I asked Tesla to move a few panels either from my south-east or west facing panels to the south roof yesterday. I had previously asked for a redesign...

How are you getting 5% back from paypal? Which credit card?

Wow!. This is probably the largest install. 61 panels. 20.74 Kw. Cool. Just surprised that the production estimate is a bit less than I thought. Run this setup in Aurora or Helioscope and see if you can move some panels from your north roof to south.

I ordered a 16.32 XL system with Tesla and in process. After tax credit and referral, it cost me 21K. Using Hanwa Q-Cell 340W panel and solaredge inverters

I would get someone from fiverr.com to run your configuration through Aurora or Helioscope. Having so many panels on your North roof might not be as useful and you could probably go with a smaller installation and upgrade your south facing panels a few years from now.

I asked for the west facing panels to be relocated/stuffed into my south array and they responded within a couple of days. I did not like that design. While I will lose around 300KwH from my XL installation, with the old layout, I still had them revert to the old layout. Looks much better.

When did you get your technical plans? I received my Customer Layout plan, for which I requested a change but have not received the updated layout or a technical plan.

I am from Houston as well... Just pulled the trigger on a XL system too. Everyone I know asks about the payback period. I calculated a 10 year payback period but was hoping that if sell my home before that, that I recoup atleast half of the cost in increased value. So for the buyer, 10K more for...

Not sure what the 3D Model with LIDAR overlay shows. But if someone here can enlighten me (and others), it will be great.

Near Houston, Texas. Most of the panels are South-facing and a few on the west side. I went full-research mode and had a Aurora model (Thanks, Fiverr) . Turns out the south-east panels are a bit less than optimal than the full-on south. Was hoping to move some panels from West side to the South...

Very cool profile photo. Is that your license plate?

Someone just posted a photo, of a bunch of M3s being delivered to the Houston delivery center, in the Houston Tesla Facebook group.

My car is due to reach the delivery center in Houston today, but have a delivery date of tuesday. Can I just swing by the center and ask them if they can get it ready? I live atleast an hour away(katy) from the center and ubering back and forth is an expensive option.

How can I install it myself? I have a 60 amp breaker 10 ft away from where, I want to install the charger.

Never mind, folks. I called the Delivery Center and they said, (drumroll, please), that the car is actually on the the road, being hauled to Houston, as we speak and that it will be available for pickup DAY AFTER TOMORROW!!. EXCITED!!

My Vin ends with 15541x and my delivery date is 12/24. Wonder how the VIN number affects delivery date. Should I call the delivery center and ask about my vehicle. Day 0 Reservation Holder, Non-Owner, M3 MR RWD, 10/18, Houston-TX, White, White, EAP, 18", Delivery Appt 12/24

Check is fine too... Wiring gets the money into Tesla's hands a day earlier. I am not sure, if this helps the actual shipping timeframe though.

The MVPA document will have the wiring details that the CU will need to send the money to. Is it not there?

Just received this mail from my delivery advisor. Guess, it is happening!! :-) "Thank you so much for making your final payment. Your vehicle is now fully funded. It will begin transport to the Delivery Center in Texas very soon. I will be reaching out once your vehicle is in transport/on...

I did receive an email from my delivery advisor(?) that my car can be picked up on Dec 24th. Being so close to the holidays, I am worried a bit. Hope everything goes well. MR/White Int/EAP/Aero/Houston.
