Tesla's Supercharger Team was recently laid off. We discuss what this means for the company on today's TMC Podcast streaming live at 1PM PDT. You can watch on X or on YouTube where you can participate in the live chat.
Because they know their Powerwall+ inverter is a piece of garage. Tesla has a huge problem on their hands with Powerwall+ inverters arching and failing. I thought we just had a lemon until I looked on here at the forums.
I’m actually surprised that Tesla is encouraging their customers to sell power back from their powerwalls. Hawaii has a battery bonus program where they pay you a small amount in exchange for receiving 5kw of power from your Powerwall every day during peak hours. In order to sign up for the...
I have a very similar situation. 9.6kw system with 2 PW, one of those is a 7.6kw Powerwall +. System was installed October 2022, we got PTO June 26, 2023. July 14th we had an electrical fire in the same wall as our powerwalls and inverter. Half our house was damaged by either fire or smoke...
This is what my system did every day until it stopped working. 9.6kw system with two powerwalls. One of those is a Powerwall + with a 7.6kw inverter. Every single day my production would clip at 7.7kw, until it stopped working on August 14th around noon. The inverter shut off, so we’ve assumed...
I came here to see if anyone else had a broken inverter a couple of months after installation.
My 9.6kw system with 2 powerwalls was installed October 2022. They only gave us a 7.6kw inverter. We were in self consumption mode until we received permission to turn on June 26, 2023.
July 14, 2023...
Still no news on the official cause of the fire. I requested the incident report, and they said the investigation is still ongoing. They said to give them 6-8 weeks. Tesla finally sent a couple of technicians to our house. They ran a diagnostic check on our system that they said was good, but...
Background… we have a 9.6kw system with 24 panels, and two powerwalls. We have a 7.6kw inverter, but we get 7.7kw from it every day I guess because our panels produce the full 9.6kw.
Our system was installed by Tesla October 5, 2022. We’ve been using it in self consumption mode until June 26...
The system didn’t shut itself down. When my 13 year old son realized the fire was next to the powerwalls he yelled and said the solar panels are on fire. He thought about pushing the red button to shut it off, but he was afraid he would get in trouble because we had warned all of the kids never...
The investigator said he will finish his report today. As of right now we still don’t know for sure, so I don’t want to speculate, but we know the source of the fire was from that area in the pictures. I’m not sure the exact time it happened, but we left the house just after 9am, and when we got...
That hole on the right side of the picture taken from inside our house is opposite the powerwalls, inverter, and meter. The fire literally occurred within inches of the powerwalls.
I came home yesterday to my house on fire. The fire originated in a corner of our home in between the two Tesla powerwalls and inverter, and the other Tesla boxes. The entire downstairs house is trashed. The investigator for the fire department was asking me a lot of specific questions about our...
I just got off the phone with Elaine, the new Tesla Energy project advisor in Mililani. I asked her about the Battery Bonus program from HECO, and specifically why it wouldn’t benefit us. She said in the fine print of the agreement you authorize HECO to take all of the power from your PW’s if...
We were dealing with Shaun from the Mililani office, but the response I got yesterday was from Elaine, who is also in the Mililani office. This is the first time I’ve corresponded with her.
With the high rates HECO is charging us there’s a record number of people getting solar installed. I’m...
