I recall seeing sometime post somewhere that a power wall V2G/Virtual Power Plan (VPP) participant was getting paid either $2.00 or $2.50/KWh during these power events. Don’t know if that was an average, a flat price, or something else, but utilities definitely need to make it worth our while...

Please tell Britney VIN 193 has PowerShare installed, is a SCE customer, and wants in on the action!

Did this come from the regular [email protected] address or something else? Hope I get it too.

Depending on what they pay for the electricity I might gladly trade some degradation/range for $,$$$ or $$,$$$ in the bank over time.

I understand V2G needs to get rolled out by the utilities, but what's going on here with it not working for people when it comes to V2H? I've posted before on this thread, but will share again. In my case I first had the Powershare installed, but not hooked up to my solar. Have an old 400amp...

I’m curious what kind of rates they’d pay in emergency situations. I generally have far more electricity in my truck than I need, and I have one of my solar systems dropped directly into it, so it can hopefully power the grid and charge at the same time.

I just cancelled my ChatGPT subscription and will likely subscribe to Grok when it goes live on the truck. As for what I’ll do with it - anything and everything. Research clients and prospects, educate me on various industries and subject matters, maybe a little role playing before a meeting...

Back in the 70s/80s when I was a wee lad we had a motorhome and the handle/name on the CB radio was Brutus, so I had to go with it!

Almost 10 hours and zero drain. That accessory on button really hosed me, but at least going forward the drain at home and work should be negligible. Crappy thing is I sized my upsize on my solar panels based on my usage over the last year, which was apparently grossly overstated thanks to my...

After being parked at work for almost 9 hours it said zero loss, so initial feedback on turning off the Accessory button is positive. Just charged to 233 miles - will see what I have tomorrow AM.

I’m in SoCal, and while yesterday got to the low 90’s by me, in general hasn’t been bad and nightly lows have been around 60. I don’t park in random places often, so sentry isn’t active frequently. Nonetheless, this car has wasted massive amounts of electricity for me so far. Shame on me for...

In Tesla’s defense I had “Keep Accessory Power On” checked, but otherwise have everything off (Sentry/climate). I just turned it off and will monitor, but feels way off… I know I’ve had excessive energy usage when parked for a long time now, but finally decided to pay attention over the...

None, but Rivian is HQ’d in OC so they are extremely commonplace.

As a Rivian and Cybertruck owner, it’s interesting to see how different the attention (and self-imposed perception) is driving each. We’re here in Vegas right now and I was just reviewing the sentry cam videos. I can’t say that everyone loves it, but the number of randos who stop and take pics...

Looking forward to hearing how it goes. Just got mine installed yesterday and now need to hook it up.

Thanks for the correction & good to know for the future. Maybe there will be hope for a clear one in CA at some point.

Well I am driving to Vegas in a few weeks…might need to hit an auto parts store while I’m there.

Apparently us and Texas…

lol - it was disappeared :-) To draw the connection, we tend to have a more aggressive government and regulatory regime in the golden state, including what seems to be banning clear windshield washer fluid. To be fair, my kids were young once, and I wouldn’t want them mistaking it for water...

So here in California I’ve only come across colored wiper fluid, but I’d love a clear option. Is my only option some sort of DIY solution (pun intended), or is there anything else I can consider? Don’t love the blue streaks on my white wrap.
