So no ASP/FSD monies for Q3 ...
Don't get the fuss about it, the original post said "likely 2020 if you consider Elon time". Probability statement rather than factual, and fair enough, given all the FSD and auto summon history. Even "likely 2021, given..." would be a statement I could support to some extend.The facts are:
1. Yes, it is delayed from original hint at mid month release.
2. 1.5 weeks ago he suggested early access starting two weeks from then.
3. 4-8 weeks after a early access release sounds reasonable so no reason to believe there have been additional delays since 1.5 weeks ago.
Yes it could be later than that. But saying its delayed to 2020 is no based on fact.
Almost as bad. They are being sued by everyone.Yeah but are they being sued by Walmart?
Pedantic mode: They are both AC motors. The newer one is switched-reluctance with permanent magnets, the older induction type.Yeah, I think you missed the point of this discussion. At issue is whether the Model 3's new SRPM motor allows higher sustained cruising speeds than the Model S/X with its AC motor's inherent issue of not being able to directly cool the internal rotor. Since the SRPM motor used in the rear of the Model 3 has a steel rotor with no coils or electromagnet, it's rotor doesn't get heatsoaked like an AC motor does.
The confounding variable with the Model 3 AWD/P is that they also used a front AC motor, which does have the same cooling issue as the S/X under sustained high power useage. That's why I suggested repeating the same test with a 'First Production' RWD Model 3, which has a rear SRPM motor only.
Finally, the new 'Raven' S/X now uses a Model 3 SRPM for its front motor, which is why its more efficient when cruising on the highway at steady speeds. So until its going fast enough to require extra power from the read motor as well, the 'Raven' will not suffer from the heat-soaking induced power rollback behaviour displayed by the original AC motor(s) only versions of the cars.
Cheers!
That credit is so small, it’s not even worth a consideration. With PG&E, it’s only $0.034/kWh. I mentioned about this on my post in the other forum. Who gets the credit during the time between cancelling and removing the panels is not mentioned in the available agreement. But, i would think it’s in Tesla’s best interest to remove it as soon as they can to bank the $1,500 fee and re-use those panels in other projects.
Does Tesla get a cut on Panasonic's sales to 3rd parties?I figure Tesla has side deals with the named utilities, otherwise why restrict it to just those 20? So they get paid something as long as the system is on the roof. Almost no one will pay $1500 for removal. The tax credit drops from 30% now to 26% next year and 22% in 2021. That's manageable. If it truly goes away in 2022 the program will end, but by then President Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal will be in place
Panasonic will continue selling GF2 output to others. There's a 30% tariff on imports, so they can find customers at reasonable prices.
Sorry but minimizing this is just wrong. Just 1.5% of installs? They caught fire.
Tesla has de-energized 240 wallmart installations. Solar city continues to be the gift that keeps on giving.
I am not sure what the worst part is, the fires or Tesla not taking care of them. This should not have been a lawsuit. Tesla should have paid out or got insurance to do it. Walmart does not even appear to be asking for anything but actual damage.
They should have gone into red alert mode at some point and paid to redo these installs properly before it turned into 7 fires.
Linch pin of V10 <> enh summon.You know Elon essentially promised the linch pin of V10 already in October 2018 as 4 to 6 week out? What facts do you have that an Elon promise for 4-8 weeks is not in 2020?
I’m not one to pitch fork and tiki torch Tesla Energy because the same media outlets that knowingly trash and misrepresent Tesla on a daily basis, put out Walmart case filing without Tesla statement or rebuttal.
I know some here didn’t like the Tesla acquisition of solarcity and jump on the desk when things like this come out in the news, just as the same haters in the press do.
Bias aside, this needs perspective as does car fires compared to Tesla fires, etc.
To pound the ground and make this out to be he end of the world as we know it, is no different then the FUD we despise on daily.
Tesla self insures it's product liability exposures.Sorry but minimizing this is just wrong. Just 1.5% of installs? They caught fire.

A lot of the people I know hate Walmart. This could get some of those people interested in Tesla Solar just for being sued by Walmart. Maybe it is different elsewhere but even a priest once told me to not go near Walmart at night as that's where all the drug dealers are and shootings have happened in their parking lot.
Previously approved tariffs. Bi-lateral side deals involving commercial terms for energy pricing are frowned upon by PUCs.I figure Tesla has side deals with the named utilities, otherwise why restrict it to just those 20? .
I already boycott Walmart so boycotting them would be easy for me but I don't think they'd notice it. They've destroyed so many local businesses. Like Amazon, if you don't have some kind of niche sales products they undercut whatever price you can survive on. But I guess I'm preaching to the choir here.I can confirm that I've run into a lot of people who absolutely will not go to Walmart and these same people are the prime demographic for Tesla Solar.
If it turns out that this lawsuit is designed primarily to be bad publicity for Tesla moreso than a reasonable way to resolve a business disagreement then I think a boycott of Walmart is in order.
The FUD is making this out to be something bigger then it is to scare readers/viewers against Tesla Energy.This isn't daily FUD from shorty airforce, this is a major company suing Tesla for incompetence. Can you cite anything else on the same level?
That was the edited 15 minute later version. Check the early replies to see the original post.Don't get the fuss about it, the original post said "likely 2020 if you consider Elon time". Probability statement rather than factual, and fair enough, given all the FSD and auto summon history. Even "likely 2021, given..." would be a statement I could support to some extend.
