I was wondering about that. Maybe when using go off grid, it doesn't have the ability to stop solar? But in a real outage, the outage stops solar production and doesn't start back up until on backup power

When you open up the powershare gateway (nice looking rectangle box), you'll see a big gray panel and some breakers. There's one screw at the bottom. If you remove that, the full gray cover comes off. My qr code was near the top. I can get a photo later on but it's just that one screw

I'm glad that helped! I had to do the same thing, I forgot to include that on the post

Interesting, I'm on Tesla app v4.44.5-3304 The off grid section on the screen appeared about a week after the installer closed out the job on the Tesla One app. No update or anything special that triggered it. I assume someone at Tesla reviewed the documentation from the installer then that let...

That should be sometime later this year according to this page: https://energylibrary.tesla.com/docs/Public/More/Powershare/InstallManual/HomeBackup/en-us/GUID-04DE7F20-2290-4489-A9A1-53F639BB85CB.html "Can be installed now, Powershare feature available later in 2025"

I forgot to mention the install price! It was 2800. I went with the whole house backup. They did a great job, they measure twice and cut once!

I wanted to put this post together because I had trouble finding information online. Here is my Powershare experience: February 2024: Got 19xx vin March 2024: Installer installe universal charger and powershare gateway. Backup switch wasn’t approved for use with powershare by PG&E, expected...

Thanks everyone for all the input. I have a few more weeks to deal with it and have put it off. I'll call around and report back. I'm also in northern california where safety score doesn't matter.

Thank you both! I'll call around and report back. I'm wondering if this is going to be for everyone in California after the first six months are done

Here's the coverage

Good point let me get a screenshot of that. But it's basically what they initially put on as the defaults, except one change that increase the monthly premium by 2 dollars a month.

Hi everyone, I signed up for Tesla insurance in February with a monthly rate of $198. I just got an email from Tesla saying that the next six months is going to be $299 per month. Has anyone experienced a 50% increase after the first six months? I attached the email. I'm planning on calling the...

Thank you! Mine still shows pay as you go. I'll keep an eye on it

The second option, for me, was $1,000 more. It involved moving up to 8 120v circuits to a separate panel, and powershare would only power those. Using the backup switch was cheaper and the entire house would be powered. I don't understand the technical difference. I got my wall charger and...

Just got an update. 2024.2.6 Includes auto wipers!

Wasn't me! I left Dublin around 4:30pm. Thanks for the advice for everyone else in the thread. The truck got the royal treatment recently. Does anyone know if there are matte black wheel and lug caps on Amazon available? I don't want to get glossy.

Send me a message if you want to check it out. This thing is a happiness machine. Between friends and family, I have had over 20 people in the truck today. If anyone gets one soon, expect questions, stares, and cameras pointing at you

Amazing team in Dublin! I'll post more thoughts this weekend. This truck attracts a LOT of attention!

Yes! On both: Tesla Gateway 3V for Powershare Tesla Universal Wall Connector with Powershare Plan permit design and filing fees Option 1 (cheaper) comes with a Tesla backup switch (https://www.tesla.com/support/energy/powerwall/learn/tesla-backup-switch) which hardware is included in the...

Haha will do! Thanks for your response earlier. Literally 45 minutes after we messaged on X, I got the call!
