We have an MX and M3 in our stable so I automatically thought Tesla Energy would be the place to buy my Solar and Battery. I already received some quotes from Solar Installation companies and when I checked the prices at Tesla Energy I was pleasantly surprised that Tesla prices were significantly lower. So, I ordered my panels and battery from Tesla.
First, I was rejected for Solar panel installation for not enough efficiency due to shading. I told them considering the price difference I was happy to sign a waiver on the production levels. My offer was rejected. So I created another order for powerwalls only and got 17 panels installed by a solar installer (from order to operation it was 3 weeks) I paid about 30% more than what it would be with Tesla.
I always thought one day Powerwall and my Tesla car batteries would be able talk to each other and I will have an extended powerwall in our cars. I have been insisting on getting powerwalls. After my solar installation I have been sending updated main panel pictures and the combiner picture etc, but no action on Tesla side.
My questions;
- Am I smoking something when I dream of integrated powerwall and car battery concept?
- Are there any other battery solutions out there that I can switch to? like LG Chem, Enphase AC battery, Generac etc.
Maybe as a stock holder and Tesla Car enthusiast, I am chasing the wrong product.
Thanks
