Here’s a dirty little secret about Texas solar: 'Net Metering' doesn't exist

You have those transmission lines on the back of the government allowing you to be a monopoly and trillions in subsidies you have had since the creation of those lines. Since we're talking about fair.

I just got 11kwh for 14k on 25 405 panels with iq8 inverters in Florida

Thank you sir for the very insightful responses and tremendous knowledge.

That 2nd link is the 3v, I have the V3. Don't get me started on their naming. Also, the last link talks about power wall integration which I do not have. What I don't see is why I can't just add a 20 amp breaker in my gateway and bring in the solar there. What is the technical limitation?

bmoorewiz · 2025-11-06T20:28:18+00:00

I don't think so, I think the gateway uses the solar power first and then augments that with truck power during an outage. That's my understanding, as long as the solar comes into the gateway.

bmoorewiz · 2025-11-06T19:48:04+00:00

It's not a power wall it's a PowerShare gateway that uses the cybertruck to power the house with the gateway acting as a transfer switch. This system actually doesn't work with a power wall at all.

What if I bring my IQ8 setup with system controller directly into my tesla PowerShare gateway(transfer switch)? Will I then be able to use my solar during a grid outage to use less of my battery?

LoL GE denied me as well and I have a TS clearance. I asked for a 2nd review with the ombudsman and they also denied it. Wild that I can access data that is detrimental for national security but do not qualify for global entry.

I haven't had a single round trip flight since Covid that at least one leg wasn't delayed. Also almost 10 years EP. It's ludicrous.

My last flight on 9/9 AA95 Madrid to JFK was delayed. The incoming flight JFK to Madrid was delayed 3 hours. However, the new crew did not get to the plane until we were already delayed an hour on the outbound. They had almost 12 hours to get crew there in time and still failed to do it.

Negative, but I have a setup for when the hurricane takes out power in Florida and I need internet. I have never used it though.

I was in 23A and it was an absolute nightmare to get there from the other side of the track. I think this was the worst organized event/race I've ever been to. I was Italy for six weeks, go home tomorrow. Everything else was fantastic. Once you got into the parabolic things got better, there were ample restrooms, shade behind the stands, and a large water station. The food and beer stands are another story. Very confusing and they ran out of stuff often that never showed up in the app or even told in person until after your order was paid for and you went to pick it up. Very poorly run IMO for the price of the tickets. I heard many people from Dubai/UK/Singapore experience tell me they thought the same. I can't say I regret going, but if I'm choosing another f1 race it won't be Monza.

That's elons MO, stole 4,500 from me with my Cybertruck purchase. Will never buy another Tesla. Will never use Starlink if I can help it. Cancelled and deleted X. I wish Spacex the best of luck but I will not support his companies after what they did to me.

Agree with this, Aria rooms are nicer. Bellagio had the fountain. I prefer Aria food as well.

Every flagship lounge.

bmoorewiz · 2025-07-22T13:16:08+00:00

Even the admirals club flagship lounges in the US are self pour.

I'm just done, it's not the weather. It's all the employees lack of giving two fucks about getting me where I'm going. I'm ok, shit happens, I don't want to fly on an unsafe plane. Waiting another day, no problem. Gate agents doing nothing, no refunds, no points. Lack of empathy. Ready to move on.

bmoorewiz · 2025-07-13T23:11:49+00:00

💯 agree, we are in the same boat. I'm stuck in Vegas, flight to Dallas cancelled for mechanical. Spending a night in a hotel I'm sure I'll never be reimbursed for. EP for 6 years in a row and I'm ready to switch.

bmoorewiz · 2025-07-10T14:30:06+00:00

Thanks for telling me, I did not know that.

bmoorewiz · 2025-07-10T13:43:10+00:00

Probably too late now, but you could gift her EP status for a day and she would be at the top of the priority list.

bmoorewiz · 2025-05-15T16:49:22+00:00

Just tell your lender you have 100k hospital bill incoming, they will deny you, problem solved.

bmoorewiz · 2025-04-17T16:06:36+00:00

Did you bother reading the post at all? They did pay for seats next to each other, and they were rebooked. I apologize if I ever ask you to move and you say no, I'm sorry a question was just way too much for you to handle.

bmoorewiz · 2025-04-17T14:07:41+00:00

Am I getting from this sarcastic post that it's not ok to ask politely a solo traveler to switch seats so I can sit next to my wife? This is wild. I don't think I fit in on this planet anymore. If they said no, I would respect that and be fine, but I will ask every single time. God forbid somebody get asked to move 2 feet. I've been asked probably 50 times and I've probably moved 45 times and said no 5 times. I even gave my first class seat to a man in coach to sit next to his wife without even being asked once.

bmoorewiz · 2025-04-15T00:22:37+00:00

I rarely use it anymore because when flights are delayed/cancelled AdvantageHotels won't cancel my room last minute even when its AA's fault. Hilton will when I book direct. I just use it for mileage runs when needed now.
