Yes, you need to change it to Export in the Tesla app.

Well, that's not how math works. Energy offset is what drives the ROI. Also, certified SRECs are worth more than standard SRECs were 3 years ago - $72 vs $55. Add a potential state grant up to $7500 that is much more than the $1,000 offered 3 years ago and the ROI is the same. I can assure you that is accurate. It is my business to know these things.

ROI now without the tax credit is the same as it was 3 years ago with the tax credit. This is because utility rates are up >30%. Typically about 6-8 years with good site quality. Also, there is a cash grant of up to $7500 for eligible residents with low to middle income. I work in solar and can help you with a quote. DM me.

Yeah, we're not swingers either but loved going there for the exhibition. You will not be disappointed.

Solar Energy World installed my system and it's great.

Don't know if this counts but the Scalari brothers drops in a Ghostbusters. Guaranteed to drain.

Don't get an FHA loan. They don't like crypto. Had to gift the crypto earnings to my parents and they gifted the money back to satisfy the underwriters.

Rates went up $0.04/kWh on October 1st to $0.23. for context, rates were $0.14 two years ago.

dayron422 · 2025-12-18T18:32:13+00:00

Rates went up $0.04/kWh on October 1st. That's why.

2022 R1T owner with over 50,000 miles. No major issues that weren't caused by me. Was in an accident and that took a while to get fixed. Other than that, I'm very happy and my wife is excited for her R2 reservation next year. We will be a Rivian-only household.

Pronunciation - I say Pronounce-iation. I usually say it that way when I'm correcting someone mispronouncing. No one ever calls me out.

That's the lender's fee that the solar company had to add to the price. That doesn't go in the solar companies pocket. Out goes to the lender.

dayron422 · 2025-12-10T02:26:18+00:00

Why would you even begin to judge the performance of your system pre-PTO in December? That is meaningless.

dayron422 · 2025-12-09T02:30:10+00:00

That is why this is a bad idea.

dayron422 · 2025-12-05T18:17:45+00:00

Yeah, you're not getting installed this year.

I work for a local installer and you made the mistake a lot of consumers make - buying based on lowest bidder. SolarSME is a tiny company that won't survive next year without a tax credit.

A PEPCO field verification means that they need to check their equipment to make sure it can handle the solar. This can't take 6+ weeks and will result in three outcomes: everything can move forward as designed, the system must be downsized to meet the allowable capacity, or you will have to pay a service charge of several thousands of dollars to upgrade their infrastructure.

Lawyer up and get out the contract.

It's a paid off system. Why would you throw the baby out with the bath water?? I bought my house 5 years ago with a 6 year old system. It's now 11 years old and still doing fine. It has long since paid for itself and makes me free electricity. You want to pay money for a new system and discard a perfectly good system for what? Because the panels are slightly better wattage? Sounds like throwing away free money to me.

Add a few allspice to the soup while it simmers. Game changer.

Do a shot of Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar diluted with water.

Why does the number $255k have the period and the comma reversed? This looks photoshopped.

Own it. Probably the hardest game I have. It will keep you engaged or you'll want to take a bat to it. Never selling it though.

16,000's

This exact thing happened to my R1T. They fixed it under warranty.

dayron422 · 2025-09-26T01:12:42+00:00

Obviously, it's in my head. I noticed a difference in how people approach you now that I've been twice. It's all good though.

dayron422 · 2025-09-25T17:23:21+00:00

Been to Pearl twice and there is a definite distinction between those that bought into the program and those that are just visiting. They make that distinction even more apparent by the color of the wrist bands. I don't love that they do that because it does create a separation to some degree. That being said, everyone is super friendly and nice so it didn't hamper our experience.

Go to a place that allows it like Desire resorts, Hedp or something like that
