Tesla Solar Panels

[roshan]

Hi All,
I am new here and just got my roof top system design from Tesla. So far Tesla is quick in responding to me, now that I have my initial design I see they are giving me 315 W q cells all black panels.
My question is what are all the panel options from Tesla and do they have any all black panels of their on.

Here are the Panasonic 315W black/black panels from Tesla Energy:

And here are the Panasonic 325W panels, also from Tesla Energy. Looooong story as to why I have photos of both. All involving Tesla incompetence.

Are the panel dimensions the same? So there is a 10w loss per panel just for looks?

Dimensions are the same. Yes, less efficient just for looks.

@Az_Rael Thank you I might consider the high performance panels then, is there any price difference between them?

I think the price difference was mainly in adding a panel for the lower efficiency ones. So we actually paid more to get the lower efficiency panels than we would have for the 325W ones.

(They installed the 325W panels on our roof first when we had paid extra for the 315W panels, so the black/black panels are what we have today)
