    Plaid brake upgrade email?

    I got the email as well and landed here in a search on pricing. This is not the track package and should be way less.

    3 inverters, 6 powerwalls, what to do

    @BGbreeder @Powderkeg @miimura @CrazyRabbit For histories sake and if it helps others later, Tesla came back and installed successfully. I didn't upgrade service to 300amp yet though the meter/panel is ready for it. I and an electrician did the caclulations just like Tesla did and the...

    Do Powerwalls prevent appliances plugged into surge suppressors from going off?

    Oftentimes I see a sizable gap in time when power goes out up to powerwall's kicking in. Enough seconds that computers and others get shut off. Those UPS batteries are still of value to prevent it. There have been sometimes where it clicked over fast but at least 50% of the time so far it...

    3 inverters, 6 powerwalls, what to do

    Thanks all. I am not worried. I am in deep east bay area past mt diablo. The new system is 9.x kw. I fill the 4 from the current 2 arrays before noon in the summer and by 2-3pm in the deepest of winter. Adding another array and 2 powerwalls is a good match to current ratio that is...

    3 inverters, 6 powerwalls, what to do

    I wonder if they can combine last year's solar array 8.xkW 24 panel and this new 24 panel 9.xkW into one solar inverter. Then my Tesla Gateway doesn't change. Then they can just put the 2 new powerwalls into the 2 open spots in the existing powerwall load center. Seems SolarEdge has a...

    3 inverters, 6 powerwalls, what to do

    According ot that tool @CrazyRabbit , I should be ok with 300A even if I did 2 heatpumps. Without the heatpumps it comes out larger than 200amp still. Thanks for the recommendation on that tool. I thought it would be too complex but was pretty simple to input circuits and get the output...

    3 inverters, 6 powerwalls, what to do

    Short answer. My last True Up payment was several thousands of dollars. But really, I just don't think PGE is going to handle well the wildfires and especially the quickly growing electric car demand for electricity. My cars eat way more electric than even my oven. I don't think the grid...

    3 inverters, 6 powerwalls, what to do

    >>You already have the larger service. You need to see how to use the amperage above 200A >>YOU DO NOT NEED ANY FURTHER SERVICE UPGRADE FROM PG&E Thanks for the feedback! Agree, the panel is already 300amp, and the meter already is CL320. So no PGE work from the street to the house or to the...

    3 inverters, 6 powerwalls, what to do

    I've been trying to get Tesla to help me solve this planning before I get an electrician to upgrade my service from existing 200amp. Maybe someone here has some thoughts if you're kind enough to suggest. I have 2 Solar Inverters already (Solar City 2018, Tesla 2021) with 24 panels each. I have...

    2021 Plaid off the grid after software update

    Since they fixed mine (firmware updates at a service center), mine has been working great so far. I have done 1 other update myself (at home wireless) since then too without issue. So likely whatever fix they do will repair, but strongly suggest you do updates only once strong wifi is connected.

    Model S Technical / Mechanical Issues

    May be worth trying that trick of charging to 100% and running it dry (NOT to 0 though of course...maybe 3%....once. At least 1 Youtuber have claimed it regained some miles.

    Model S Technical / Mechanical Issues

    I'm no expert but 315miles and looks like 90% charge for a 2018 seems pretty solid to me (no expert). My new plaid at 80% is 315miles (19" wheels) and I have to imagine they added at least 80 miles to the range since then. I saw a youtube video from a tesla fanatic that said filling it to...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    In my case in CA with a 2021 Model Y and a 2021 Model S Plaid, I actually saved ~$900 dollars per year by going with Tesla Insurance versus Progressive. Same coverage and deductions, except with more wins being on the Tesla side. I told Progressive they need to reevaluate their tesla...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    A suggestion to folks. When you get your cars, if there is an update needed...when you get home, first connect to wireless before starting the update. A bunch of us had the vehicle stop connecting to Tesla or to our phones unless within bluetooth distance with a recent update if we did it over...

    @jf2go Do you have any verbage from the service center on what they fixed so quickly. I take my into the service center tomorrow. Mobile visit failed. They don't seem to know the exact issue, yet your service center seems to have fixed it quickly and knows what it is.

    After playing around a little, these guys (phone or mobile support) use the same tool we use in app to schedule service. In the Bay Area, apparently have 6 service centers within 1 hour of me. So I just kept checking it and using manage appointment, reschedule and see what pops up. You...

    2021 Plaid off the grid after software update

    The mobile team came to my house; couldn't fix it. It just wont accept commands remotely through the wireless connection or LTE. He mentioned they couldn't even push a new certificate for connection. But they acknowledged this is not an uncommon issue now. They scheduled time at a SC. I...

    2021 Plaid off the grid after software update

    Hopefully the mobile visit tomorrow fixes it. But I suspect they won’t be able to. Seems they have to reset it to production state, which likely requires some advanced tools to get through the security. I’ll let you know. They already told one of the folks here mobile visit couldn’t fix...

    Brand new model S plaid in shop within 24 hours of delivery

    My plaid delivered last week is in a similar boat. Can drive it but it doesnt connect to Tesla and app doesnt work. Service ignores my requests for help for my new 147k car. Sorry, Dublin is too busy.

    I went to the Dublin SC. As I was pulling up suddenly a Mobile message appeared in my service ticket that the Dublin is booked for 1 month; I should essentially turn away. So after days of no response to my service ticket, suddenly a quick message as I pull up. So they know when you are...

    Thanks for the reply! Maybe I will just go to a service center without waiting then. I literally cant do anything with the car unless I am next to it (bluetooth distance). I'm not waiting 1 month to control my ~$150k new car. Ideally they would have told me they knew what the issue was. And...

    I've found calling the SC to be useless. Never an answer. Email as well, at least when I asked about my plaid order. I did visit an extra time. If you don't have a service advisor you probably do on paper at the SC. Maybe you will get lucky and that person will be there when you visit...

    Agree, this feels unfair. I would have expected you would be getting yours before Oct1. Hard to explain why not. Is your SA communicative? Mine isn't either, but in the case of a Plaid+ conversion they were supposed to have helped you get early dibs. Regardless, your order is 1year old...
