I'm super unclear on the benefits of a "connected" plate. Someone try selling this to me, I really don't get the point. Why does my plate need LTE?
As far as "custom" and "personalizable" goes, plenty of special plates already exist? For example, in BC (Canada), I have a Parks series plate.
I'm so confused.
But it is an electronic screen, yes ?
Wrote the vendor with a question or two. They are only selling or leasing these for the rear. You still need a regular plate for the front. And the installer does have to route 12 volts to the rear plate and drill into the back of the car to route the wire...
If I remember correctly digital and not. It’s eInk or epaper, like a Kindle. What makes the picture is tiny physically balls so not digital. But a small charge is used to move the balls towards or away from the “screen”.
Video doesn’t do it justice. You have to see it in person.
That said I got enough things people would consider a waste of money and that includes monthly subscriptions.
Like I love the concept. Even at current pricing still not worth it to me. Make is sexier, bring the price down even more, and maybe do a flexible rubberized version for the front as well.

ThisI love technology as much as the next guy but it has to make sense and be worthwhile, not just technology for technology's sake.
as mentioned people will post just to justify why its not worth it for them and thats how the internet is. these things are very nice, classy, and modern and fit the tesla well. they look great in person and makes your car that more unique.
ive got the pro version because when i got it on my last car, it didnt have the things the tesla does.
the plate is thicc because it has electronics, the e-ink screen , the 4g lte module, and the battery. its a two piece system. yes it needs its own 12V source and its a MUST that the installer wire the plate direct to the 12v and not some other system that will be disconnected when the car goes to sleep.
the app has gotten better over the year. i agree one needs to be able to put their own custom phrases on but i think this is a legal issue, because, what's to stop someone from putting some racial slur or some other nonsense on the plate, causing distress to someone who sees it and reporting the company. would not be the publicity this startup want.
COVID certainly may have affected it but not by much. this is a niche product and its not for the masses. it took the company several years to get this to work and its really a nice product to have if it fits ones budget.
Everyone has made great points. Again, it's a useless Mod that some of us like to have, no different than covering up the wooden dash with fake carbon fiber. As far as the State snooping on me, we all drive Teslas with Cameras everywhere and who knows how much data going to the Mother ship on a daily basis.
