Tesla Solar in Houston & Surrounding Area’s

Gateway reset did the trick, got it back on the WiFi and I think I have it on the 2.4Ghz signal now. Sadly for it to build up any history I would need to leave the VM running permanently. At least learned to go thru the steps and will be ready when I get the Raspberry Pi

Pre-PTO production sadness

Pre-PTO production sadness

How long have you been waiting for PTO? It was pretty quick for me. I think within a week. From install to Centerpoint and back to Tesla signing off.

Since the 9th, I got a text from Tesla about scheduling a City Inspection but the MLK weekend got in the way. Apparently, both a Tesla Rep and the City Inspector need to be here on-site at the same time. Haven't heard from them since so probably time to bug them.

Install on the 11/2
PTO 11/11
The PTO doc to sign. Before Centerpoint can approve or check my system. Had went to my Spam. So I signed it a day later Han I should of. That probably slowed me down by a day. Once I realized it was all going to spam I was able to move it to my Focused Outlook box.

You were outside City limits though right?

Yes. County that probably added another day. While Tesla was telling they didn’t know if I needed a city inspection. Once the Tesla Quality control guy left. The next day. I was told. I didn’t need an inspection.

Tesla Electric. Finally used my PW to charge my Tesla after 7pm. It kept pulling from the PW after peak buy time. Drained my PW down to my reserve of 25%. Tomorrow won’t be a great production day. At least I was able to get some juice for tomorrow. From todays production. I’m using the Charge HQ app. I had it set to stop charging 4-7pm. Then I had the app set to start at 7:30pm to charge. Great App.

After again being our own PM and contacting Tesla. They are here today to do City Inspection, still what a terrible day to pick. Drizzly and windy outside, I wouldn’t be surprised if the City Inspector doesn’t show up lol.

Also, PW algorithm sucks at picking what SoC to start the day at. Even with grid charging enabled it didn’t top off today when we will have near 0 production. Yesterday, started the day at 100% and of course had an incredible sunny day. Don’t think I can get it to behave any better sadly.

I don’t have faith in Storm watch. I haven’t seen it turn on at all.

Well, City Inspector dipped lol, said he came by, the gate was closed, and left. The weather was ok earlier but now it's shitty. Poor Tesla dude got stood up, he was here early and set everything up, parked outside looking at the gate for the inspector from 8-11

That sucks.

How you guys doing?

 

[Jones1]

I’m going to have to call Tesla or message them. It’s a Tornado Watch. Literally. Yet Storm Watch is not active.

I beat you.
I have 1.2

 

[Jones1]

Ok. So I got a pop up message. I guess it was storm watch. It said something about topping off my PW due to weather. I’m not sure. I was topping it up anyway.

My storm watch kicked off too. I cheap out to not let it charge my 2 pws. I still have 60% left plus my EV6.

 

[wiltoking]

Didn't get anything but I'm inside the loop, looks like the suburbs got it worse. I've been running PW all day down to 39% and finally getting some sunlight now that the storm has passed.
