Hi All - Great forum. I've learned so much.
My install was three weeks ago and I'm currently waiting for Tesla to re-submit permit as they moved the Inverter and Gateway. I've been running pre-PTO, other than the obvious my local city utility being upset. Any advice or secrets to run pre-PTO?
I have a 8.14kw system with 2 PWs (2.1). It normally takes most of the day to charge the Powerwall's. I have a 2900sf house with pool pump and AC set to 79 day and 82 night. We have full sun all day, 21 panels are SW facing, 3 SE facing. Its normally 100 degrees each day. I generate ~56 kwh a day. Powerwall's are normally drained each night even though AC only comes on once or twice for 5-10 minutes. Pool pump only runs during the day. I remember Tesla said two Powerwall's would give me six days whole home backup. Is that just powering one lightbulb for six days? I can't get thru one night.
Appreciate the feedback! Thanks
