how about to use the powerwall daily for night, and to be completely off grid

Hello, how to create the panels in the App, and what App should I install? Thank you.

I hate background music.... Period!!!

I have a question for you that I know of others would like the answer too. I have a hybrid 5kw solar set up, and as normal all systems have limitations, my PV is set up at 133% but the panels are split over two different roof areas, I have a large battery pack (30Kw) and the inverter givens me 3000 watt to run the house and once the batteries are full any extra power generated is going back into the grid. pretty standard set up. the question is, I often am putting 4500+/- watt back into the grid, I also have a solar diverter that put some of the grid feed power I generate into heating a large amount of water, SO in a power cut the legal set up required shuts off the grid tie output which is good for safety to the protect anyone working on the grid or you feeding power into other houses. so as I have a lot of power I am generating that is going back into the grid, in a power cut, clearly the first thing to do is switch the mains fuse off, disconnecting the house from the grid, how can to then trick the hybrid inverter into powering up the line you would have had connecting to the grid so I can use this extra power to heater the water and is this output self limiting its output for once the water is at temp and turns the elements off. regards Martin

Will the app know my homes use is if i didnt get a battery?

After I installed a new HVAC system, I noticed the humidity was higher in my house. It seems that HVAC manufactures are trying to be more "efficient" at the cost of latent heat removal (humidity). So now I need to spend a lot of money and seal and dehumidify the crawlspace, and run a dehumidifier much of the year. That is not more efficient! Why is this happening? Are you aware of any HVAC heat pumps that are better at latent heat removal?

why cant there be an interlock wired up to disconnect the solar panels from back feeding the line and then it can feed directly to the house with the main breaker cut off?

My salesman is telling me that 1 Powerwall 3 can last me most of the night even with my 4-ton AC running. This does not seem to be accurate?

My app doesn't show an Impact option, or any of the energy value graphs, just the yellow generation line coming from the solar panels, 😒

So I bought a thermal cam and have hot spots at the ceiling meets the wall could this be my solution and how do I do it if I already have drywall and ceiling

My SolarEdge monitoring does not show all the information, like the energy production sent to the electric company etc. How do we get that on our monitoring oage.

Great info awful audio sound like a walkie talkie

I have recently heard that using foam sill seal on outside wall top plates have caused moisture issues there. Anybody know about this?

I do have a big battery but is not working when we have blackouts..

I dunno but i think the Solar System is about as turned on as it's gunna get.

This is super helpful for understanding how everything works. Thank you!

called was girl was rude and would not let me talk to who we requested to speak with this was several weeks ago and just did not sit well so well got local co to come out , there may be something to the old saying about when you think your britches are to big? mighty dog in columbia sc better choice

So the panels will still power the house even if the battery is full? Or does it only charge the battery and when the battery drains, you lose power?

If I can sale to a client successfully, will you company sign a contract for an entry level sales representative? I have a list of clients I'll pitch to in the city of Indianapolis, Indiana. And I want the rest of the Midwest cities too. I just need a company to join. I'm young, ambitious, and coachable.

air sealing something from inside is stupid. Air seal from exterior.

With the "Vehicle charging when off-grid" if you tell Powerwall E.G. "75% save for home - 25% share with vehicle" does that mean excess solar would automatically charge the vehicle ? What about when NOT in a "grid outage", can you still define home and vehicle boundaries ?

the background music is too loud and a bit annoying.

After u reset, how can u tell if the inverter is working ?

Where is the tesla powerwall password if it's not located on the qr code sticker????

is it worth getting a powerwall if I don't have solar power?

My tesla solar meter says error 241 i turned it off still not working

That was the most unexpected ponytail I've ever seen.

We are doing panels this year and batteries in the next 12 to 18 months. Why are we waiting for at least 3 reasons: 1) Newer battery chemistry (we want LFP) and hopefully the Tesla PW3 has that. 2) H2V charging. As a Tesla owner, I have an 80 kWh battery sitting in my garage. If bad weather is forecasted we charge it up to 90% giving us over 70 kWh to play with and being retired we can go days without driving 3) More options and lower costs. Having said that we have a 5 year old high efficiency 1750 sg ft home with a daily average usage of 35 kWh. We told our installer that any equipment installed today for my PV arrays must be compatible with batteries when the time comes. One item he mentioned after looking at the data plate on our 3-ton Lennox AC system was we'd want/need a device called "SOFT START". So after doing my research, it seems we'd want one regardless of my off-grid usage. So we had that added to our design. The two numbers he was focused on were LRA of 83 and RLA of 14. I get the gist of the issue but am struggling to understand the power draw of the AC vs the ability of batteries to support that surge. Once up and running my system runs about 5 to 6 minutes every hour overnight. So how much power would my AC consume from a Tesla Power Wall 2+? Will two PWs be enough? The new 3 might only require one. I'd like to go into future battery decisions fully armed with knowledge. Any help is appreciated.

What do I need to ensure my 3-ton AC will run during a grid outage with a battery backup system?

Hoping the PW3 is an LFP chemistry, we are adding batteries next year and we only want LFP batteries in our home/garage.

During an outage, my advice is to CONSERVE CONSERVE and CONSERVE. Also consider getting a Soft-Start device for your AC system.

You should be able to open main breaker in breaker panel manually and run battery in self supply mode in controller then Battery will act as my term here a swing generator to offset the bane of solar panels cloud fade and rain fade. My system now has 19,000 watts of panels Cloud fade is real and deep. No such thing as to many panels imho. My goal is to never buy a watt of power ever again from the power company.

With all this caulking & sealing, we better invest in those mfg companies. So many vids on just this topic.

Hello, I have problems with the app on my cell phone, because I cannot change the setting of my battery, it stayed at 94%

Don’t do it

Helpful review but I was hoping for advice on the Backup/Time-based slider settings. I'll keep looking.

This video didn't say anything about TROUBLESHOOTING. It just showed turn off/on reset.

My powerwall app is showing a yellow or amber line feeding the powerwall or house from the solar panels. It use to be green. I asked the company that installed the our system but they said it was normal. I’m not to sure about that since it use to be green. What do the different feeding colors mean. Sometimes a white feeding line appears feeding the house from the grid.

What I'm interested in is whether it's common for builders in moderate to warmer climates to use an interior air barrier product like INTELLO or some other interior wrap. There are many articles that say that most of the moisture management is accomplished by more airtight construction. Here in Australia they're already recommending interior wraps when we don't have good airtightness to begin with. Seems like we should focus on the simple and proven strategies like this video shows. Can't wait to see the next video.

EXCELLENT video and content, too bad about your audio, however. Can it be re uploaded with corrected audio?

Why can't we get a cost effective battery for use in emergency situations? This is commonly available in European countries, it doesn't make sense to install a $15K battery for the once in a while the power is out. Better yet why don't we change the EV code so that the EV's sitting in our driveway can be used as back up battery in emergency situations. Again another regulation going into effect in EU countries in 2025.

Awasome

Im using way too much from my grid? What should i do?

How on earth did you do all that amazing work in 1 yr!!!

Is there a website where I can go to download the "app" onto my home computer instead of having to install an app for my phone? I want to see this information on a full screen, not on a phone.

This is the best overview of the tesla powerwall app. Thanks. But your audio needs work. The voice is distorted and only on the right channel.

What you don’t need an air barrier at the basement sill joist area? That seems very odd with climate zone do you live in this is one of the most vulnerable areas in houses north of the mason Dixon line

My app is not showing home use and grid usage. What is causing that?

I have Tesla solar system, I downloaded the solar edge app but I don’t have an account with them! Do I need to create an account in order to be able to see the panels production !

Wait… there is a job where someone foams up and caulks a house as a service? Why isn’t the general doing this?
