This morning as I was about to leave in my Cybertruck, I heard some kind of musical notes coming out of my phone, the lights flickered, and came back on. When I opened my Tesla app, it said that Powershare had kicked in.
Around our neighborhood, the sound of generators powering up filled the air, but in our home, all was quiet. I had charged my truck to 100% the night before to take it on a road trip, and the app said it would continue to power our home for 2 days. Apparently a bird had nested in a transformer and it blew, taking out power to most of our city. It was projected to be out for 5 hours, and the temps were in the low 40's.
The thing is, I've invested some money in some rare chicken breeds and they need to be under a heat lamp in our garage. If they lose body heat they can die. Thankfully the Cybertruck/Powershare combo saved the day. The chicks stayed nice and warm.
Honestly, I didn't even notice much of a blip between the power going out and the Powershare kicking in. The system had not been tested, so I wasn't even sure it would work. Once power was restored, the panel seamlessly switched back to the grid, and my truck started charging up again. Such an amazing feature! Name another truck that can do this!!!
