    Phony Solar Demo in App

    The Demo is intended to help sell the product, or such is my interpretation of the promotional email urging me to try the demo and buy the product. As such it seems to me that while it is certainly imaginary it should not be misleading.

    Phony Solar Demo in App

    No, nothing specific to my home, and that doesn't matter. The contradictions are within the data shown.

    Phony Solar Demo in App

    I have a Model Y, as well as solar panels and Powerwalls installed by Tesla. I am quite happy with both. Of course I run the Tesla app on my iPhone. Overall I am more impressed with the way the app supports the home (solar/Powerwall) than the car. Despite having Tesla solar and Powerwalls...

    Crazy Directions

    Following the route prescribed by the navigation in my MYLR, I was southbound on Rt 15, Wilbur Cross parkway, exiting at exit 63. Left at the end of the ramp was fine. BUT, when I reached the intersection with Bishop St, it told me to turn right! Left would have taken me toward my...

    FSD 12.3.3 Seeing Route sign as Speed Limit

    I turned on FSD while northbound on Rt 15 here in CT. It left the parkway at exit 65 as it should, and made a left at the end of the ramp. Very soon it started to creep. I took control. I noticed that the speed limit on the screen was 15. Nowhere was there a sign for 15 MPH, but there were...

    FSD 12.3.3 first drive - safe, super boring

    I've never really tried earlier versions of FSD. Today I activated 12.3.3 while returning home. I was on the Wilbur Cross Parkway (Rt 15) here in CT when I activated it. I thought the lane keeping made more small adjustments than necessary, and when it reached the exit it worked but was a bit...

    Connected Solutions Real-World Experiences (MA - National Grid / EverSource)

    I'm in CT. This was my first year participating, and as I said above my check came at the end of November. (December reduced my credit balance, and I think January will too. I should still have at least $1500 though, and I really want to know when I see that money.)

    Pillar Camera

    I get the same warnings, but on both sides. It just depends on which direction I'm driving in relation to the sun, and to some extent on trees. Mostly I get the warnings when the bright sun is shining through bare trees; as as the car moves the camera is going from sun to shade constantly...

    Connected Solutions Real-World Experiences (MA - National Grid / EverSource)

    My check from Eversource came last week. $250.71. No information with it, It was preceded by an email telling me it was coming. Again no information. I was expecting something like how many kWh, but no. (My November electric bill only added $65 to my credit balance, now at $1600. I...

    Exceeding charge limit

    I normally charge to 84%, and can't recall it showing any other number when it stops than 84%. Today it is at 86%, so I came here for a discussion like this. Cool, I won't worry about it. BUT, the advice about 90%, down to 20%, sentry mode, and so forth is completely new to me. I guess I...

    Head lights not coming on when wipers are on

    Connecticut should be on that list. (3) at any time during periods of precipitation, including, but not limited to, periods of snow, rain or fog.

    Surprised not to see a discussion thread about the brand new Energy screens / Charts in Tesla app [7.15.2023]

    I haven't had my system very long (early December). I've been exporting the data and saving it into an Excel spreadsheet. What I noticed with the latest update to the app is that they changed the sign on some columns, specifically the sign of what goes to the grid. This was pretty confusing...

    Emergency Battery Saving (2,500 Mile Vacation from Wisconsin to New York and back)

    My only thought is that going up the mountains is a killer, but coming back down can recover quite a bit. Just don't get to the point of needing to use the actual brakes; drive to keep regen slowing you down. Green at the top of the screen is good.

    That was my situation too when the tornado watch started here around 9:15, but around 9:45 or so (EDT) it changed to Storm Watch and started charging the Powerwalls from the grid. Charge is now at 63%, and charging at 7.8 kW.

    Surprised not to see a discussion thread about the brand new Energy screens / Charts in Tesla app [7.15.2023]

    What annoys me about the changes is when I choose the Grid option. I used to show me the Net, which as a Net Metering customer is the key number with a financial impact. How it provides the total in each direction, to and from the grid, but does not show the sum of the two, which is of most...
