Thanks for taking the time to detail your experience...I'm a bit concerned that Tesla Energy does not seem to have their act together, and that they are still getting acclimated to doing business in my area. With my goal being having this system installed and operational prior to 12/31 so that I...

Thanks for sharing your experience - this was my initial understanding, but just the other day was told by my Tesla Energy adviser that I can only get Hanwha panels for my project (29.5 kWh system) o_O

Thanks for your commentary - it definitely validates my concerns about the quality of the Hanwha panels and I agree that their 12 year warranty is below what Sunpower and LG offer for seemingly better quality panels. I will probably heed your advice about doing PV with another company, and...

That actually makes sense...Tesla Energy is still new in this area (South Florida), so the jury is still out on their customer service...

I guess I feel better knowing it's not just me who finds this change odd...

So, I've been in the process of receiving proposals from Tesla and a few local companies for solar/PW combo, and thought Tesla was offering Panasonic panels from Buffalo. When I recently asked my Tesla Energy adviser which panels my system would have, he told me it would be the Hanwha Q-cell. I...

Greetings from South Florida...Ready to pull the trigger on a rather large solar and Powerwall system. I have proposals from both Tesla and a reputable local company and looking for advice on whether it's better to go directly with Tesla vs. this local company that claims to be the largest...

I am a "serial car lessee" and just ordered my 4th Tesla to replace a Model X coming up for lease expiration. Before I ultimately submitted my order, I corresponded with the Ownership Loyalty Team to express my disappointment that they were unwilling to extend the FUSC benefit that I have had on...

Wow - this is mostly Greek to me, but I'm glad there's a few different alternatives to make this happen. It's ironic to me that the Tesla Energy only proposed a workaround involving the installation of a second electric meter by my utility. The utility said "no can do" but a local solar company...

Funny you should ask! A third-party solar company just proposed this to me this morning as the most viable solution for my home...I'm definitely far from the level of knowledge required to completely understand what all of this means, but am intrigued. Would love to hear other thoughts on this...

Maybe this would be the best depiction of my monthly energy consumption...looks like July 2019 is going to be the highest we have had since building this home 2 years ago...

Sorry for the confusion - the 7kWh was per hour...

This is very insightful info - thanks for sharing...

Looks to be between 4000 and 5000 kWh during the summer months

I just looked back over the past few days, and it appears the average consumption between 7PM and 7AM is around 7kWh

Thanks - glad to hear this and if you could post a link to that thread I would be grateful.

Thanks - I have found one gentleman (on this forum, actually) who has been very helpful in assessing my current sub-panel arrangements. He suggested that I have my electrician re-work the sub-panels to create an essential loads panel. I proposed this to the Tesla Energy people and they were not...

6,200 sq ft under air

Tesla Energy acknowledges that this 200A limitation with their gateway is something they are actively working to improve. Basically, they told me that I could only back-up one of my electrical panels due to this limitation. They proposed a workaround to have the utility install a second meter...

These are valid questions and at the heart of my confusion. I would certainly want to focus on having the ability to back-up the "essentials" such as our 3 a/c units (I don't think we would need all 3 running simultaneously) and certain appliances. I'm not too concerned about my pool equipment...

Looking into the potential of going with Tesla Solar and Powerwall for large South Florida home, but am getting mixed messages on whether or not the 4 Powerwalls would be able to back-up most of my essential needs in the overnight dark hours during an FPL outage following a storm. I have 3 a/c...

Last night, my wife parked her Model X in our garage next to my Model S, went into the house, realized she left something in the second row, and when she returned to open the driver's side FWD, the driver door popped open and slammed into the door of my Model S. We were both under the impression...

I upgraded to SAS a few weeks back and see I now have a VIN as well (85XX). Oddly, the design spec still displays the original configuration. Either way, I'm just happy to see the wheels are finally in motion...here's to hoping for a July delivery!

I'll echo the experience others here have stated...received a voicemail from Inside Sales last night, called back after they were gone for the evening, and then received another call around midday today. I was given the same spiel and once he told me that my coil suspension 75D would not arrive...

Hey All - I was wondering where Tesla recommends mounting a toll tag on the Model X. Before I took delivery of my Model S, my DS mentioned that the windshield was not able to support (in a technical sense) a traditional windshield-mounted SunPass for Florida toll roads. He had me pick-up an...

Thanks for the tip! I will heed your advice, though my car is leased, so I am not terribly concerned about the battery life issues you cited (at least not beyond 3 years when my car is returned and I order a new one). :biggrin:

I have a similar commute with my Model S 70D and have only used a supercharger once in 5 months of driving the car. I usually charge my car 3 nights per week and that has worked well for me. IMHO, the 70D will be perfectly suited for your needs. My wife recently configured her Model X and we...

Thanks for the pics - looks beautiful and my wife agrees with your's regarding the light vs. dark headliner. It definitely keeps the car looking brighter and more airy. Now we just need to decide on the wood trim and we will be ready to confirm the order! Enjoy your X in good health and thanks...

Thanks for the effort - will show it to my wife, though I think she is trying to see the color contrast between the tan leather and light headliner. The configuration tool is helpful, but there's just nothing like the real thing. Might just need to pay a visit to a local service center to see if...

I did a cursory search but came up empty...thanks for the reply, though.

Hi All- My wife has been invited to configure her MX and would love to see some pics of the tan interior with the light headliner before she presses the order button. She is considering a silver metallic exterior and since we live in South Florida, is not too keen on a black interior due to the...

Thanks for all of the replies - based on the feedback (and my wife's blessing) I opted for the premium interior and lighting package, pano roof and black headliner. Happy 4th to all! -Blue

Hi All - new to the forum...Just ordered a Model S 70D and trying to decide whether or not the premium interior package is worth the price of admission. I ordered grey next generation seats, panoramic glass roof and interested in opinions on which color headliner I should go with (I know the...
