No cloud day on Dec 20. My 14.8 Kw Tesla install generated ~71 Kw. West Houston (Katy) Texas

PSA : I asked for Tesla to enable my SolarEdge account just by using the support option in the App. After a couple of weeks, today, I received the login information. Now, have to figure out how to make this public. I see @reddy has made his public. But I do not see a admin option in the...

Now, the rate is $1.49 per watt.. Wow, just wow. (Please keep this thread alive. Will be nice to see how much the costs are falling)

Folks having solaredge accounts, does it allow for your install to post data to the solaredge public monitoring site? SolarEdge

West Houston, TX. Today was my first day of production. Until yesterday, there was a problem with one of the two inverters and the whole thing did not produce. I thought the inverters were supposed to be redundant or at least independant. In any case, today, we had clouds on and off and a cold...

Today was my first day of production. There was a problem with one of the invertors and the whole thing did not produce. I thought they were independant and built for redundancy. The tech had to apply some 'updates' and the bad inverter came online. In any case, my 14.3 Kw install produced...

Centerpoint came through within a week. Is your installation up and running.

Has been 2 weeks now. Still no production. :-(. Turns out that one of the inverters is not working. Blinking green lights instead of steady green lights. The Gateway router also does not seem to work either. Tesla sent me an replacement but that is still showing 'no signal'. I thought, with one...

In a way, I am glad that I am not the only one so super frustrated with Tesla. First the gateway would not connect. The skinny pagelet which comes with the gateway router just says, plug it in. Nothing about LED lights or anything. So, I take it that that needs to work for my solar system to...

I did get an email from Tesla which started with "You are one step away from enjoying all the benefits of your Solar Panels. We have received permission from your utility company to turn on your system. You can do it in a few simple steps." with a link to a video.

XL installation in West Houston, TX. Received PTO (Permission To Operate) mail from Centerpoint and so, turned on the breakers, switched the disconnect panel to ON and turned on both the inverters. I hooked up my gateway to the router, switched on, can see white light on the router. What next...

If you are wondering about the cost to move a vent from one location to another, it cost me 350$ to move 3 vents. This is in West Houston, Texas.

My install date is this Thursday (09/24) and last week, I had a roofer move a couple of vents away from the south facing portion of the install. I asked Tesla to move a few panels either from my south-east or west facing panels to the south roof yesterday. I had previously asked for a redesign...

How are you getting 5% back from paypal? Which credit card?

Wow!. This is probably the largest install. 61 panels. 20.74 Kw. Cool. Just surprised that the production estimate is a bit less than I thought. Run this setup in Aurora or Helioscope and see if you can move some panels from your north roof to south.
