Have you looked into heat pump electric water heaters? I looked into it as a way to use some of solar electricty over production but our gas tankless water heater is only a few years old so it did not make sense. Unexpected bonus of the heat pump electric water heater, it cools your garage in...

ahah, it's 105F outside and we keep the house at 78F so both AC units end up running all day, no EV charging. So far this year we've consumed 4,865kWh for 9,534kWh produced so I don't mind a few more days at 100kWh. But it's time to seriously look at EVs or growing...

I have 10 panels facing east and 22 facing west, a very good production day is around 58kWh. I've attached my best week so far. Yesterday we reached our highest power consumption over 24h I've seen at 101kWh for only 44kWh produced (PG&E cut our power for 2 hours so we lost production)  :o The...

I'm pretty sure it's a lot more than that even in PS.

$660/sqft in Laguna Altura:https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/59-Triana-92618/home/45378565 Feels like it has a place in this thread.

Talking about range, how is the Y range "in real life" for the few owners on this board? Genuinely curious as there seems to be a lot of diverging opinions (Tesla self tests, advertised range may be difficult to reach etc..).

This is the inverter I have from a 2016 Tesla install, not sure which inverters they are installing nowadays: https://www.delta-americas.com/Products/CategoryListT1.aspx?CID=0505&PID=1759&hl=en-US&Name=Solivia%20Series%203.0%20%E2%80%93%207.6kW It uses convection cooling so a dusty environment...

Both my inverters are in the garage on the exterior wall (Tesla install). Not sure I would like them outside.

It reminded me of this one in Altair too:https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/61-Cetus-92618/home/172081944 Steep price for a 3 bedrooms...

Pretty impressed overall, lots of information to digest with so many trim levels. It also looks so much better than the ~2018 concept car!

I was planning to watch it, it's been hyped for so long that it better deliver!

Anybody curious about the Ford Mach-e as a Model Y competitor? My biggest concern getting in right now is how fast EVs keep improving year over year. You don't really get that with ICEs anymore but if I'm going to pay $40K+ on a car I'd like it to be relevant in 2 years. Or maybe I'm looking at...

It's not as much what they try to get away with but what is being overlooked. A houses in itself is not rocket science to build but there are a lot of different trades being used to build one and they are all subcontractors. So then it's a numbers game, will the builder's superintendent see the...

Get a cable toner/tester like this onehttps://www.amazon.com/Meterk-Multifunction-Instrument-Maintenance-Continuity/dp/B071K8L32H/.It helps locating the cable corresponding to a room by sending a tone through the cable. Send the tone from the room and check with the probe which cable has the...

The new panels look to be 340W compare to 315W before. https://electrek.co/2020/06/19/tesla-releases-new-solar-panel-slashes-prices/

I was curious, here is the satellite view:https://www.google.com/maps/place/Normandie+Ave,+California/@33.8406947,-118.2997434,276m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x80dd356216ba8f5d:0xf0026b478f8658fd!8m2!3d33.9294289!4d-118.3003388 It's... interesting.

I did some quick research: - The charging efficiency of the SuperCharger looks to be around 90% (it takes 100kW to charge the car 90kW). - Pricing is between $0.32 to $0.36 per kW in Cali (https://electrek.co/2019/01/18/tesla-increases-supercharger-prices/) - The 2020 Tesla Model S Performance...

They also removed the free SuperCharger language from Model S & X pages.

You would need to close by the end of their fiscal year so they can report the sale as part of said FY.
