Also. Will they be updating the PW. Like they did with The Vehicles and HW4. So maybe now they can produce PW and reduce stock. To roll out the new updated PW. With better specs. I’ll keep my eye on it. I saw Tesla had two new energy products at investor day. I want Biderctional charging. Even if Elon doesn’t.
Agreed on bidirectional charging. I think it make sense if it’s only available with powerwall installs and maybe limited to so much of a percent in maybe limited circumstances. Like hurricanes, storms and such. I think the real hold up is when it comes to battery warranties on the cars. How do you regulate that part if someone is using their car as backup everyday.Also.

Usually, takes a bill cycle or two (according to Amigo Energy). But it doesn't hurt to call, I called and they were waiting on a document from me which I never knew they needed.
I had searched for a UV index widget. Since I couldn’t set the apple weather widget to stay on daily UV index. I found one that said it showed daily. But it was a premium subscription fee. I think it was called Sunbeam or Suncreen. I forgot how much it was. It wasn’t worth the sub fee for me. Lol
I love Charge HQ. I would of thought Tesla would implement it in its software when a customer has a Tesla Vehicle and a Powerwall. I set a few schedules and let it do it’s thing.

Sunny day out, high UV index and even after rebooting everything I am still getting near nothing. Now I see why everyone told me don’t get Tesla solar through Tesla. I’ve been waiting weeks to get a response from Tier 2 support on the other issues and now my solar is screwed up. SMH I get more solar than this in the middle of a rainstorm
Thank you for sharing. I was thinking something was wrong but was also thinking the sky looked a little hazy and maybe it was just a weird day for solar. Knowing you are basically right down the road from me let’s me know there definitely is an issue somewhere. I would be expecting to see 5kw or so by now not less than 1kw.
I think I’m going to try one more reset of everything since I can’t talk to Tesla until tomorrow.
Hopefully I do.
That’s a good question. I would imagine it will get better as we get into summer more. The longer sunshine hours in mid summer you should be making a lot even well after 7 I bet. My biggest question about summer is how the extreme heat we get down here will impact production.Tesla Electric
4pm-7pm peak time.
I’m wonder how this 4-7 pm Peak rate will work for me. Now that time has shifted. I should be pulling in production an hour later. Instead of 5:45-6pm. I should pull in production past 6:30 pm. I wonder if I will make more credit back by selling to the grid. Later in the day.
I’m hearing from Coworkers that the other Non Tesla Solar companies have worse customer service and longer downtime. I think poor service is a wide spread problem with Solar. They come and sell you the system. After that it’s hit or miss with install and repair. My next door neighbor is still waiting for install. He is using a company that I got an estimate from. That was 60-70% higher than Tesla. He isn’t getting a backup battery with his system. I told him that would be a mistake. He has been waiting since September - October 2022. Just for Panels. The company he is using. Is Called Freedom Solar Power. They are a Sunrun back company. Nice people. The rep I talked to. Gave me a lot of info on Solar and PW. But the price was too high. It’s a lot of people getting Solar now. Well the Smart people.Second reboot seemed to fix things. I am now producing at 4.8kw which is roughly where I would expect to be. Seems as if maybe one of the inverters was not working but the other one was. Between this issue, the powerwalls getting “overloaded” at 800 watts and the voltage issues that Centerpoint says is an issue with Tesla equipment I’m not sure what step to take next since Tesla doesn’t reach back out and always tell me it’s an issue but then closes out the ticket without fixing it. I now see why people always go with other solar companies and add a powerwall through them so they have actual support. I definitely wouldn’t order through Tesla again but it’s not like I wasn’t warned about this haha
. So I know they are backed up with installs.
