That works, thanks.

Was a good idea, but no difference unfortunately (Laptop on Windows 10, MS Edge).

And to post my Powerwall Cycles, using your post in the thread below. The energy_charged + energy_discharged figures ÷ 27,000. I should've posted there, since that's in the Australian section. Oh well.... Powerwall 1: 582.80 cycles (0.37 cycles per day) Powerwall 2: 463.14 cycles (0.36 cycles...

Ok, good to know - a similar age and degradation. Thanks. Interesting, I'm on v23.28.2. The last time I logged into the Gateway was end of Sep, and the web interface worked fine. And today I got this error below.

This thread is extremely interesting, thank you! I have 3x Powerwalls 2s (installed over different stages). And it looks like I have substantial battery degradation on the first two Powerwalls. Not 70% yet, but getting close. Nominal_full_pack_energy: 9936 (installed 9 July 2019) 10253...

Great, thank you for the response. Yeah I really like the look of symmetrical turbines, so aftermarket covers are what I got.

Yeah I saw Astro66 mentioned $1850, but that was including the hitch/ball, correct. Tesla doesn't include one, so that's an additional downside. Unless someone doesn't mind if they're just attaching eg. a bike rack. And I must've misread JayTee's $1050 as $1850, my mistake...

Very true, I thought of that when I was typing, but then forgot. It's a notable difference.

The decision is yours in the end. From what others have said, both Carasel and Stealth cost $1850 installed. Tesla charged $1970. Is the $120 worth it to you that something will be blamed on the non-genuine hitch? The chances of that are very slim though - these 2 companies have good...

That's great. Which yeslak ones did you get? Looks like they resell the exact same Chinese ones as above, and ones identical to the Tesla Gemini covers but in different colors. And 3 other styles.

I'd be suspicious of range increase over stock Aero Covers. If there was a measurable difference, wouldn't Tesla run huge CFD simulations and easily get to that same outcome. The Geminis are pretty ugly imo, so it's not like they chose form over function. Airflow and turbulence through a wheel...

Sure. We got our car a few months ago, so they're installed now. I like that these come in matching pairs (mirror-imaged). So the left and right sides spin the correct way, unlike most wheels/covers.

Yeah I bet they're hard to find, since the 19 inch Model 3 Wheels don't come from Tesla with Aero Covers. I assumed no one made aero covers for them (unlike the 18" Model 3 or 19" Model Y wheels, that are made for wheel covers). You have what are called the 'Sport Wheels' in 19 inch? The only...

One thing to note, the factory Tesla Gemini covers touch the wheel here (circled in green), and causes scratching to the wheel over time. Whereas the aliexpress ones don't touch the wheel there. But they touch in a different spot on the front face, circled in orange. So I put some tape there...

Yeah I understand. I've been lucky with AliExpress, but it's the Chinese eBay. So it could go either way depending on the seller. Most Tesla Accessory suppliers in the US sell the same Chinese products at a mark-up, but hopefully the better ones do a quality control before sending the items on...
