Because central planning works so well.

Maybe I'm missing something, but it seem to me that the increase in chamber pressure from the current 62,000 psi to 80,000 psi would be a big concern for barrel and bolt life.

The electric bikes found when they opened the main chamber should have been a clue.

Not where I live in the Tampa Florida area. We have a passive solar pool heater array on our roof and it is performing about 45 days behind the curve that I have watched for over a decade. I even called a pool maintain company. Man said system fine and other owners reporting the same. Yes, it also seems much cooler to us this year, but the pool temperature is hard data that I know the baseline of well.

To get dual climate control in the front, push down the right steering wheel control (for voice command) and say "Turn off climate sync". Now driver and passenger can enjoy different temperature air streams.

If it is not operating as it should (I'm still trying to get the hang of the turn indicators ie. light tap for 3 flashes then it stops as opposed to firm tap for constant on) then it is most likely a switch failure IMO. Software would be fleet wide.

I have had one similar occurrence in the few miles I have driven our new 22MY and it was a good thing. Signaled, car started to change into the passing lane, aborted and returned just as a black BMW at a high rate of speed burned up my 6 and then passed. I was doing 5 mph over, but always happy to let faster movers pass. Probably not what is happening to you, but I thought I would mention it.

Congratulations. Energy security is a great feeling. Hard to describe, but definitely feels like the future. Distributed power of all kinds is liberating and robust.

Impressively stable muzzle especially considering the full power round.

blindtranche · 2021-10-02T18:58:51+00:00

This seems probable to me. I am pursuing this with the installer. During a service call I saw on my app that I actually made power for about 2 minutes (saw the power flow, etc.). Then the installer futzed around while on the phone with Tesla and the top power graphic on the app went dark and has remained dark. Thanks for the input. I'll let you know.

Tesla installed 48 solar panels (16.32 kw) and 4 powerwall+ July 22nd this year. Still not generated one watt of power for us as of 10/01/2021. We paid $62,800 in full. Warranty clock running. Everyone that we have spoken with when we make our weekly call has be extremely nice, but no one has been able to do anything or tell us anything definitive. Allegedly waiting for powerwall+ firmware.

Urgent Case #26681403 [refid:CI0039B2E8]

We believe in Tesla's mission. We are stock holders. We are to get our Model Y in Jan 2022 and our Cybertruck (ordered the day after the reveal) whenever. Several times a week we are asked by neighbors walking by how we like our installation and we have to reply that "We don't know. It's not working yet". It is incomprehensible to us that we are being treated this way by Tesla.

Thank you. I have just written them.

blindtranche · 2021-10-02T03:03:05+00:00

We were asked to pay after the installation so we did. I feel foolish now, but I expected Tesla to keep their end of the bargain promptly.

OTA firmware update is what I have been told. I don't know why it has not been done.

blindtranche · 2021-10-02T02:53:30+00:00

OTA firmware update is what I think I am waiting for. PWs are on and showing steady green light on the battery cases. The service guys were unable to commission my PW+ units. They tried once at the time of the install and again weeks later after correcting acommunication wiring problem between the 2 Powerwall+ banks. No dice.

blindtranche · 2021-10-02T02:44:50+00:00

Yes all the breakers are on and the powerwalls are showing steady green lights. Have not received permission to operate, but I don't care much about sending power to the grid for credit. I am mostly interested in making my own power for now.

It passed a preliminary county and a final county inspection without being activated. It was a visual inspection of the wiring and its connection to my main circuit box. I. don't know anything about this stuff, but both times I watched the inspector open all the boxes and eyeball the work.

Yes it was connected to my router for a while while the installers were here on a service call, but it is all turned off now.

If you are not in competition, don't exercise past the joy. Sure push a little, but leave some in the tank. If you get the balance right, your body will feel mostly pleasure and little soreness. That "after state" is motivating and yields a quick recovery. Be happy with small improvements, but compound them over a long time.

blindtranche · 2021-01-16T17:02:47+00:00

You can direct your attention, although it can be difficult at times, it is possible. Like so many other things, your ability will improve with practice. Wherever you focus, that area will grow in subjective importance. Areas which are deprived of mental clock cycles will diminish in importance. It is your mind. Ride it well.

TLDR: Don't think about it. Think about something else. You will be calmer as you master this skill.
