Well it seems that Tesla does have a massive exposure brewing on these units. But I am a bit het because a unit with this much degradation is not as useful as one with the full depth of discharge on a hot summer or cold winter night. And that's what its for.

yes its implemented now. This is my code running every 30s in homeassistant based on the tesla_custom.api integration in HACS in conjunction with by Powerwalll 2. service: tesla_custom.api data: command: CHARGING_AMPS parameters: path_vars: vehicle_id: '{{...

No it doesn't provide the cycle history or the total throughput.

Yeah its apparently not like the car on the basis of this thread. Seems to be a pretty linear rate of decline: Powerwall 2 Available Energy After 2 Years Seems that what I am experiencing is actually pretty common.

Yes I'm aware of that. But 18% in far less than 2 years is a lot when you've only got 30% to play with. That's why I'm wondering what other PW2 owners are actually experiencing in order to compare.

I installed the TeslaOffer cable yesterday. The balance adjustment between front and rear and left and rights works fine as well as the equalizer. The removal of the panels was not difficult. The whole job took less than 30 minutes. I should say mine was a 2019 SR+. I did not install the...

My Powerwall 2 was installed in about June 2020. I am in NSW but the unit has not been connected to Tesla's grid service mode such as with @amberelectric. Yesterday, I checked yesterday (using this method Discussion: How to get status information from your Powerwalls) on its current...

I upgraded to 2020.48.26. Now when I charge to the same level as yesterday I get 304km of range compared to 310km. Have they downgraded our battery? 2019 SR+

Thanks for this suggestion. I'm using @amberelectric for wholesale electricity pricing. I want the car to be able to suck up the excess solar generally, but particularly if the solar FIT goes negative and my excess solar production is actually charging me. I'm in the process of putting a WiFi...

Yes I noticed that. But why start with the most unlikely use case? Solar is being generated at most PW2 sites each day. So you'd think they would focus on the thing that would be of most benefit. I suspect there is a reason why they are reluctant. Just don't know what it is.

It's beyond me why Tesla doesn't allow this. In order to use of excess solar its a no brainer. The powerwall 2 could control it automatically but it doesnt. Does anyone know why this hasn't been implemented? It seems pretty crazy that so much effort goes into hacking the wallcharger...

Around 3 weeks ago, my phone stopped being able to connect to the infotainment system. Still works as a key. The Bluetooth screen just can't detect it. Anyone have a similar issue?

AP1 can use it but not the new system. What's the likelihood we will see Speed Limit Sign recognition?

As I understand it, they cannot use visual recognition of speed signs because they do not own the patent for it. Big problem. They get speed from other sources.

Some ppl are more equal than others.
