Check out this post by bmah: iOS app questions There's something on Tesla's end that causes the "Energy" notifications option to show up. For a long time after I had my Powerwalls installed, I only had the "Vehicle" option. I was going to call them about it, but then randomly one day the...

I had a power outage 2 days ago on Tuesday and I got both app notifications (when power went down, and when it came back up). I'm also on iOS 13.4.1, Tesla app version 3.10.5, and 3x Powerwalls on version 1.46.0. I was surprised because this was actually the first time the notifications worked...

Sounds like Tesla needs to make an A/C. ;)

Wow, this is great! Hopefully this is just the start of things to come regarding vehicle + powerwall + solar integration!

Is anyone else having issues with their Tesla app where it can’t refresh and gives the “no recent data available” error at the bottom? This started yesterday for me. I can connect to the Powerwall gateway directly in a browser and everything looks good. It’s just the Tesla app having issues.

I have 7 seat fold-flat 2nd row. Squeak was due to the off-center bolts that attach the seats to the floor (in my previous post).

I know this one!! I had the same squeaking and had a mobile service tech come out to fix it. He showed me exactly what it was and said it was not uncommon. If the bolts that attach the second row seats to the floor of the car aren’t perfectly centered, they rub against the edge of the screw...

The app tells you when one of the powerwall breakers is tripped. I had a bad breaker on one of my powerwalls a few months ago that kept tripping. The other two powerwalls worked fine (charging and discharging), while the third was disconnected. Here’s what it looked like in the app:

I would recommend just adding the additional panels now to save yourself the headache later. I have almost the exact specs of your system (5.04 kW solar, 3 PW) and I wish I would have gotten more panels. Like you, I thought about getting a bigger sized system but I opted not to. Don't make...

Tesla did the same with my system, except I also backed up my HPWC breaker. I too was alarmed when they put the load center on a 125 amp breaker even though my main panel is 200 amp. I haven’t had any issues either.

• Make sure the “Power Flow” screen in the app is correct. I toggled on/off big things like A/C, oven, dryer to verify. Incorrectly installed CT clamps are not uncommon. • Simulate an outage and verify the powerwalls are working as expected. Wait a few minutes to make sure your solar turns...

TIL. Thanks for the info!

There should be a page that compares the rate plans and gives you a price estimate at the bottom. I don’t know the details for EV2-A vs TOUA. I think it depends on your usage since the pricing might change if you go over the baseline usage with TOUA. I would recommend looking into EV2-A.

I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Today I was surprised I even got higher than 3kW. These past couple months have usually been in the 2kW range. Like Sylvia said, it could also be due to the angle of your roof. My roof faces almost perfectly south. Google Sun Roof has it as the brightest...

I have a Delta inverter with 315W Panasonic panels. I had my system installed back in August 2018 when they were still using those panels.
