I have been using a 14-50 Plug on 50a Circuit for my S for the last 2 years. I just got a Model 3 and decided to put in 2x Load Balancing Wall Chargers on a 60a Circuit so I can charge at the same time. Max will be 48a. (removing 50a).
I currently schedule charging between 10pm and 8am using TOU-D-B $0.10 / kWh.
(at some point will have to change to TOU-Prime with $0.12 / kWh overnight).
Last month before Model 3: Super off peak 448 kWh with a total of 1,027 kWh for $232. Start of summer so will be higher. The Model 3 will probably be 50% more off peak then I use now with just the Model S.
I use overall about 1000 kWh per month. My bill average is $200+/month
I am adding Tesla Solar (8kw - 12kw) with 2 PowerWalls.
My On Peak is 2pm - 8pm $0.48 / kWh. (TOU-Prime will be 4-9pm and $0.40).
My other big usage is with the AC. During the summer 3 months is around double my normal usage. It is on a 40am Circuit but "I think" only draws 30a?
I assume the Power Wall will backup everything but Tesla Charging and AC when there is a power failure.
MY QUESTION:
Would I only use the Power Wall's Daily for the everything except Tesla Charging and AC as well? Meaning I would expect to generate "Credits" during the day and use my power wall for On Peak everything else and credits for the Car Charging?
We both work from home so I could switch to charging during the day instead of at night if the Solar can provide enough power to charge my car and also run the house and charge the Power Wall. What would my best option for Charging the cars?
