There is no thread on powerwall longevity, and there is no way to manage "not charging to 100%" like the you can in the vehicles. You can set your reserve to reduce depth of discharge, but your choice is to either not discharge at all, or go from X % to 100 unless your solar wont fill up the batteries.
Wasn't planning on "not charging to 100%". It was more "maybe I don't need to always be on self powered". I would like to do TBC - I guess if I entered a fake rate plan it would let me.
There are other applications where Tesla warranties the Powerwalls for 37.8 MWh aggregate throughput (2800 cycles) so that gives you an idea of the design life.
As others have said, that's when it has 70% total storage left, correct? So 9.45kWh per Powerwall?
My personal goal is to have the Powerwalls last 20 years. If the 37.8 MWh is the actual design life then that means I should limit the annual throughput to 1.89 MWh/140 cycles per Powerwall, or an average discharge of 38%.
Not sure how that math works out since it doesn't really include the degradation curve.
What is the difference (according to Tesla)? Feel free to link to prior threads or suggest search terms.Tesla says its the 70% design life, not the product design life.... but we have had this discussion before.
