Two powerstrips is how I survived hurricane Beryl for 6 days! Stay under the 20 amps you'll be fine.

I used my outlets in a hurricane with rain directly on them with no issues. I think that little amount won't be an issue.

Beg to differ... Having the beep go off when I get to close to something unseen in my Model S saved my butt many times... Actually just having the radar line with distance would be a huge help as well.

Just curious if you've rebooted to see if it will survive or re-calculate. I've seen this happen on my Model S but in the other direction where suddenly my 310 mile battery was getting 400 ! I hope a reboot will cure you.

UPDATE : power restored... Sweet glorious AC!

Not sure, it's around 250 amps I think, we determined that I can run my whole house without issue... Probably won't be using the air compressor while cooking a turkey and doing laundry at the same time though.

I wired my whole house to Powershare and will flip breakers before I power up. I did not choose circuits to power because I wanted to control what had power andnwhat didn't. You loose a about 2k watts going the bed to plug route.

When someone comments to me on a post or something that "it's ugly" I always respond with "so is that comment". I had someone come up to me at a weekend event to tell me "you're truck is really ugly why would you get something that ugly" so I looked at her and said with a straight face, "it...

Don't let everyone rain on your parade. This is no more dangerous than a Model S with the nav on the main screen. It's only dangerous if you use it poorly! To many people in the world want to try to save you from yourself! Use it responsibly and you are fine. Well done sir.

UPDATE : Day 5(7/12) Still no power at my house although Houston proper is now down to less than 1M without power. I tried the Screen Reboot again, I also tried it with the brake engaged although I am not sure that did anything different. No joy! FURTHER UPDATE: I spoke to my installer and...

yea passenger front... and it sounds a little like metal a sprocket on a rollercoaster... clunk clunk clunk usually about 4 or 5 clunks... does not do it every time tho.

Yes I get the same and have since day one. I would not call it loud ... more like a little clunk. I was told it was the brakes by the service center. They did not say anything about engaging hold I just assume the brakes kick in when regen is slowing down to full stop.

Maybe I should try again just to be sure... it's been a week or so since I did that

You are kidding right... at my normal day to day consumption a full charge on my truck would last for almost 4 days. I suspect I can stretch that to 5 if I needed by not using the high power appliances like washing and drying clothes the oven etc, however I can drive a few miles away where there...

I need a place to vent! I am Tesla Evangelist of sorts... this truck is my 3rd Tesla, 4th if you count the wife's M3P and I have gone all over telling eveyone about how great these cars are and how the company gets some bad press but the reality is I've always had great experiences. Even my bad...

I would like to chime in here as a veteran of both EV and ICE Road trips... Currently the Supercharger Road trip and ICE gasoline road trip are fairly comparable in cost. I have driven my Teslas from Houston to Dallas x 20, Los Angeles X3, San Deigo, Atlanta, Indy, KY, TN Orlando x2...

I was wanting to set up the Raspberry Pi autobackup 3 partition option but it seems like that project is dead or on ice. Maybe I should just put a drive in there... something hardened is probably in order.

I wish!!!!! I am currently running the octopus of wire from the bed, around the house but of course no possibility of AC. Power has been out for 24 hours now. I have the truck, I have the equipment installed and verified it's up to date on software, just no software on the truck or app to enable...

Yea I've been installed for weeks now... Currently sitting in the dark in Houston after the hurricane knocked out the power... I called and was told I have to wait 2 weeks to get the option tuned on. So I have extention cords running all thru the house from the bed trying to not lose the content...
