I thought it only used the connection to the WC to see if you were home or not to know if it should throttle charging and actual charge rate was pulled and set from the API. If I change to guest vehicle it shows connected but says “vehicle not capable of current control” meaning it has no api...

I used to do something similar but the power swings are too frequent due to having two ac units. I also like to have it as fully close to my set charging level as I never know when the wife will plan to take it somewhere.

Drive on Sunshine is great for those with powerwalls. For those that didn't have powerwalls chargeHQ was a good alternative but now you have to pay $7 a month to utilize the solar charging feature. There are a few scripts out there on GitHub that allow this but I was hoping for something a...

I had the authentic Vorsteiner rear. Wondering if its too aggressive and debating between sticking with the Vorsteiner or going with the CMST one: Vorsteiner: CMST:

Update to those wondering. They came out and replaced my inverter and it promptly exploded when powered on. I guess exploded is a bit dramatic but sparks flew, big pop and smoke. This was shortly after the guy said I wonder why that jumper was there let’s try this. 😂 They came out last week with...

I have the panels with 2 Tesla inverters. Odd thing is in my Tesla account the service request says "Damage to inverter reported. May not impact solar production" but it is indeed impacting me and not sure where they got the damage part from. I was not happy to see my Power bill take such a...

I called tesla and they said one of my inverters looks like it’s low on coolant and said there was a ticket opened internally. They said I should hear back in 3-5 days.

Nope no issues with debris or dirt. It has been very hot lately but other than that no change I can see even up on the roof itself.

My solar output on a sunny cloudless day has been very low since June 17th. I usually get 70-80 kWh per day production and since then I barely get 50. Any ideas on things I can try or are there any diagnostics I can run? Or should I just call Tesla? Anyone have any similar experiences?

That is a good point I did not consider folding that seat. It would address visibility a bit and also help them get in and out easier. Thank you! Yes it’s the 100+ degrees I’m thinking of. Thank you for your feedback!

With cabin over heat protection and pre conditioning it’s not bad at all but then again I have fresh air blowing in my face which is why I was questioning the back. All of my children are short and at this point even the oldest will fit for quite a while. Whoever gets the back kicks out because...

Can anyone with kids in the third row chime in on how comfortable they are back there in the summer? I don’t think there are any third row AC vents like on the X. I recall the rear facing model S seats got toasty so I’m wondering how the Y third row fares.

I’m passed the rear facing stage on all of them but still have a couple more years till the second oldest one gets out of his booster seat. At this point it is all about compromises for that 10% scenario because even suburbans and the like are not large enough for 8 plus luggage. I mean a...

Currently family is 6 with 3 still in car seats so the only time we don’t take the 3 is when we go somewhere as the whole family. 1-2x a week. Eventually plan is to also have the in laws with us and then we will be 8 but if I trade the x that will get us most places and then get a large 8...

Thank you for the feedback! I am doing only local driving and plug in at home daily. Roadtrips would probably still be relegated to the gas car. The dashcam feature has been useful several times moreso than sentry mode. Thank you that was helpful! The remote camera I don't care for as much...
