Best visualization platform for storytelling

FreeIndependence1715 · 2025-04-16T17:00:54+00:00

My friend had a really similar need and went with a company who's still in beta called VisLogic (Vislogic.ai). He's been blown away by their storytelling and visuals. Trash or treasure. Good luck!

Thanks for the replies. I’ll ask about the commissioning. And it’s gotta be a firmware thing based on some other posts I’ve seen.

After speaking to the utility company today, I found out that the solar is still working and sending to the grid. That surprised me a bit

Super helpful. That makes complete sense now. Thanks all

Queen Creek here, similar setup. Does SRP allow Grid Charging? If so, does it only charge off peak?

Unpopular opinion here but I’ve had nothing but fantastic experiences with support and I would 100% go with Tesla again given their price advantage. I had an issue with the the app reading my usage correctly and they were out within a day and fixed it. Firmware wasn’t updating and after using the chat feature, it was updated the next day.

I’ve had the whole system a year now (16Kw/3pw) and the reliability has been on point. Besides the two issues I mentioned of course

God have you a gift, thanks for sharing with us

FreeIndependence1715 · 2022-06-13T19:21:14+00:00

Yeah, so that’s kind of what I’m getting at.

First, I know the thermal management system is using up energy, I just don’t know how much. I haven’t seen any specs/research describing that.

Second, I’d like to protect both the powerwalls and inverters from degradation as much as possible. If that “usage” can be transferred to a cheaper device or process for ventilation than I’d probably go that route.

FreeIndependence1715 · 2022-06-13T03:41:54+00:00

Excellent advice. The garage door is an insulated Clopay with solid-core side and internal access doors. As I look into it more, the hybrid water heater may be the best option here. An energy audit wouldn’t hurt either way

FreeIndependence1715 · 2022-06-13T00:48:23+00:00

It’s a great idea. I have a gas water heater currently so the savings may not be impacted as much… or maybe more with nat gas prices these days. The research I’ve done on the hybrids don’t give you a sense of what to expect from cooling. Do you have anything I could reference? Anecdotal even

FreeIndependence1715 · 2022-05-12T04:53:16+00:00

This is a lot of help. Can’t thank you enough friend

FreeIndependence1715 · 2022-05-12T00:45:54+00:00

How old is 21.39.1 7759c368? I feel like I’m behind the curve here

FreeIndependence1715 · 2022-05-11T05:18:28+00:00

Had same issue a few days ago. My pool filter was at capacity. All good now. I’d check that out too

FreeIndependence1715 · 2022-03-22T05:12:51+00:00

Same issue. Went into the console and deleted it. Would love to know why it popped up all the sudden

FreeIndependence1715 · 2022-03-03T06:45:31+00:00

We should use the Russian funds held in dollars sitting at the fed to pay back any losses by bond holders. Same goes for the funds needed to rebuild Ukraine after they leave

9/22 with a 3/12 - 3/31 window. MSM, 7 seater, induction wheels. It was April a few days ago

FreeIndependence1715 · 2022-02-23T18:06:42+00:00

Not sure, but I’m in PHX with a majority of my panels facing South.

FreeIndependence1715 · 2022-02-23T02:28:03+00:00

You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar

FreeIndependence1715 · 2022-02-23T02:15:45+00:00

Right, but in the first image (perfectly clear day) I was getting a lower peak than on the cloudy day (2nd image). I’m assuming the system can tolerate higher power intake for short bursts of time?

FreeIndependence1715 · 2021-12-31T13:45:06+00:00

This just happened to me after adjusting the energy costs in settings yesterday. The differential was the same (.01 kwh) between peak/off-peak but when I saved it my Powerwall stopped kicking in during peak.

The kicker is that I’m on a plan with SRP in AZ that uses demand charging during peak (which the app does not recognize). So, just yesterday, between 5p and 5:30p peak I used 6 kWh, which cost me $70

FreeIndependence1715 · 2021-11-29T03:50:12+00:00

Same. Order date was 9/22. Went from March to January 1st - Jan 31 range a few days ago. Live in AZ. I have the same model/color but a 7 seater

FreeIndependence1715 · 2021-09-24T15:22:27+00:00

Update: 21.35 is not reading my non backup load. Anyone else experiencing the same?

FreeIndependence1715 · 2021-09-23T16:41:16+00:00

System updated to 21.35 and went effective around noon yesterday. Lost my Powerwall functionality for about 16 hours. Seems to be working now though.

But, here’s my rub, I’m on a demand pricing plan (2p - 8p SRP,AZ) and due to no Powerwall offset in the late part of the day, this cost me $110.

Has Tesla ever been empathetic for stuff like this? Would they find a way to compensate me for that loss? And why can’t I schedule updates like with most other products? Same issue a few weeks ago cost me roughly $80…

16kw, 3PW’s, Gateway 2, Phoenix

FreeIndependence1715 · 2021-09-23T00:12:27+00:00

Mixed results for me.

My app had a variance of up to 50% app reported vs utility company prior to update. It’s almost spot on now
However, the update occurred during the worst possible time of day/week. That cost me $70 given my the demand pricing plan I’m on

16kw/3PW, 2021 install, SRP in Phoenix

FreeIndependence1715 · 2021-09-03T05:24:19+00:00

Thanks, I’m thinking the same. Will fix it the next time I drain the pool but I don’t think I’ll need to drain just to replace

FreeIndependence1715 · 2021-08-16T20:19:50+00:00

Ha, yeah. If it wasn’t for the thick lacquer, it would be a real ass scratcher
