You're still wrong. He said: "Replacing modules (not pack) will only cost $5k to $7k." he didn't say: "Replacing modules (not pack) will only cost $5k to $7k each." or "Replacing each module (not pack) will only cost $5k to $7k." You're adding a word that isn't there.
If I said replacing the batteries in your flashlight will cost $5, and your flashlight uses 4 batteries do you really think that it will cost $20 to replace the batteries in your flashlight?
This is why corporate communication via Twitter (a platform that encourages using less words) is a terrible idea, but it sure gets people talking...
What would he mean if not one module? 2 modules? 3 modules? Let's generously say it was $5-7k per 3 modules. That's an awkward amount to specify, since there are 4 modules. Will they only sell them in packs of 3, so you'd have to buy 6 to fully refresh a pack? Nah.
What about if he meant 2 modules? At least we're then looking at $10,000-$14,000 which is better than I thought, but this is an extremely odd way to phrase it. So nah.
Let's say he meant all 4 modules, and the distinction he's trying to make is that you're not replacing the pack shell and power electronics and such in the rear compartment.
Perhaps this is what he was trying to say, but it would be an odd choice for a car manufacturer (especially Tesla). The industry has had a lot of movement to sealed units for remove/replace "repairs" to the consumer.
That's not to say
Tesla wouldn't replace modules themselves and use them as refurbished packs (new cells, old power electronics/fuses/shell/etc. replaced where necessary) for either warranty repair or out-of-pocket customer replacements.
Now, let's say the LR (75kWh) pack was $28,000 to replace (saying he meant per one module). That's $373/kWh, putting us back in 2015 territory for lithium ion prices (based on a quick google) and implying that interpretation of the tweet is entirely incorrect. But raw lithium ion costs don't include the cooling hardware, pack shell, power electronics, all the thermal goop between cells, design overhead, etc. I'd be surprised if all that doubles the cost of the battery though honestly, it shouldn't. That said, Tesla fetches a premium price in most aspects.
So
perhaps it's most correct to interpret $5-$7k as replacing all four modules. Now we just need to hope that is both achievable (in cost) and accessible (a service they'll actually offer in a reasonable timeline ). This requires just breaking the $100/kWh barrier and we're allegedly around $150/kWh right now. Demand is picking up steeply though, it will be interesting if the supply end can keep up so the prices can keep dropping. I'm gonna do some more reading on this all.
Heck man, I don't know
English is hard
EDIT: It does beg the question why he specifically decided on the word "modules" and not dumb it down for us with "all the cells" or "all the individual batteries" or just "the guts" for those who don't bother to look up how the pack is put together, especially for such a grand statement. But, again, a Twitter stream of consciousness isn't an ideal place to go over word choice, so here we are.
