PowerShare Bundle with Foundation Cyberbeast

[deneedle]

So I was all excited to get the delivery of my foundation cyberbeast date - April 28. When I ordered the vehicle it said PowerShare bundle included - it still says that when you go to order a foundation cyberbeast and you click on a vehicle in Orlando. So it came as a disappointment that the Tesla dealership person said that it wasn’t included - despite my showing screenshots of it still being offered: see attached . Anyone else have this issue? Tesla did mail me a universal charger . Anyways he said they would look into it - fingers crossed .

It is also saying it is included in non-FS CB. Or it was yesterday when I looked

Yeah - but their service doesn’t know - so strange .

The Free Supercharging overrides the Powershare Bundle. When did you order?

 

[deneedle]

I agree - but this is not what the vehicle offer says - free charging plus included PowerShare bundle . This small print kills me .

 

[deneedle]

If that’s the case - I wonder whether the PowerShare bundle is better than free supercharging .

Yeah, listing page is inconsistent, top level highlight doesn't list Powershare, but down the page does
I'm guessing order agreement just says Foundation Series...

How much traveling do you do, how close is the nearest Supercharger, and what is your current home setup in terms of charging and Powerwall/solar/ backup?
We were fine with the Mobile Connector on a 14-50 outlet, but had ordered our Beast when it came with $4k installation credit and gad no infrastructure. Given the choice, Supercharger would be more useful to us than $2,500 worth of Powershare equipment.

This stil doesn’t sit well with me - they should not offer stuff they can’t honor - I do need the PowerShare to power our house in event of an outage correct? The universal charger can’t do that if I am correct - we live in a hurricane area so that’s important when power goes out .

If you want home backup, you can use Powershare Gateway 3V plus UWC, or a typical generator inlet and interlock and feed the house from the 240V bed outlet. However, that is limited to 40A and needs to be re-enabled every 12 hours.

I understand your frustration but you got a bit "fine printed" the lifetime supercharging is likely a an equivalent value if you venture more than 100 miles from home often.

As far as power share, I also am in a hurricane prone area, my suggestion would be a simple "50A generator inlet box with panel interlock" if you search that or mention it to an electrician you should be able to get info and a quote.
I would NOT mention it is for "My $120k Cybertruck" just a simple "50A generator inlet box with panel interlock" and get a quote, with materials it should run between $350-700 depending where you live.
If you have someone that is electrically inclined and can range 6AWG wire it can be done for much less.

Watch a couple youtube videos on how a"50A generator inlet box with panel interlock" works so you can see the procedure during a power outage, not quite as sexy as power-share but 1/10th the cost.

Somehow current installations of Powershare options purchased with Cybertruck are NOT or no longer compatable with Solar OR Tesla’s own powerwall. How does this get fixed?
