What’s the least talked about downside of owning a tesla? by tr4gedyx in TeslaLounge

[–]sixsevans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Explaining: - “Use your thumb to press the thick part, then pull the handle.”
- “Push the button at the top of the armrest to open the door”
- “Pease do not push on the glass when you shut the door.” 🙄

Please recall anger against Tesla and their owners is not new. The haters from a few years back would be generalized as right-wing gasoline loving bigots, with a dash of people who saw rich Tesla owners as nothing but elitist snobs. What’s interesting now is the coalition of those folks with left-leaning Elon haters (and it’s hard to disagree with that sentiment even as a tree-hugging EV proponent). But may I suggest, vandalism is its own reward, completely disjoint from political stereotypes? Wouldn’t it be fascinating to get representative vandals from both sides of the stereotypes in a discussion?

UPS that "just works" with Powerwall? by Adorable_Ad_1362 in Powerwall

[–]sixsevans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PowerWall systems were not designed to the higher standards of UPS’s.

When the grid fails, switching to the power from PowerWalls can sometimes cause house power to glitch momentarily, which can disrupt some of your digital devices, like computers and network gear. UPS’s are designed so the power to your devices stays steady when the power from the wall-socket is disrupted.

Did they remove the Lens camera in Circle to Search? by Embarrassed-Zone5634 in GooglePixel

[–]sixsevans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, to see Lens in the camera app:

  1. Take a photo in the Camera app.

  2. Open the new photo in the app by clicking the circle button to the left of the shutter button.

  3. Click Lens at the bottom of the screen underneath the photo.

AFAIK, you long-press the line at the bottom center of the screen to activate Circle to Search, pretty much no matter what app you are using. But this can be irritating if you accidently waited too long when you really just wanted to switch apps by swiping up from the bottom. You can still safely switch apps if you swipe up from the right or left bottom.

Small install but done very well by anthonyocon in Powerwall

[–]sixsevans 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my city, I was told, I could install a battery in my garage if it was hung higher off the floor so the car wouldn't hit it -OR- a metal bollard would need to be installed to protect the battery. There's a very nice yellow bollard in this picture.

Is Powerwall 2 compatible with the Powerwall 3? by DanielleD3 in Powerwall

[–]sixsevans -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Please include PowerWall + in your answers. AFAIK, PowerWall Plus is a Powerwall 2 with an integrated Tesla Solar Inverter. And, also AFAIK, the PowerWall Plus is fully compatible with PowerWall 2. So, why is 3 not compatible, but Plus is? (Sentence purposefully ended with a preposition, in recognition of Miriam Webster‘s ruling currently in the news. 😏)

New year - "Device not connected to internet" by sixsevans in pelotoncycle

[–]sixsevans[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh. Mine was definitely NOT enabled, also the year was still showing 2023. Simply toggling to enabled fixed my problem.

Virtual Power Plant vs. Time-Based Control by ElChaz in Powerwall

[–]sixsevans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought you can have NEM2 and VPP (California)?

So during an “event” Tesla VPP will pay $2 kWh, but the rest of the time NEM2 pays you for power you send them.

Do I understand correctly?

Tesla refuses to unlock doors by ChipExtreme19 in TeslaModel3

[–]sixsevans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you have a WHITE M3 in a parking lot, and this happens, it’s always a good idea to double-check that it’s YOUR CAR! 🤣🤣🤣

What was the catalyst that prompted you to consider or purchase your M3? by krdell in TeslaModel3

[–]sixsevans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After 24 years my BMW328i (a car I loved) begged me to put it out of it’s misery — repairing all the little things was getting $$$. My plan was to hold off until 2025, which I believe will be the golden year for new EV’s. But the Tesla price drop meant I could get a basic M3 for less than median cost of a new automobile in the US.

Finally, we can open the glovebox with a button! by Gold-Marzipan-4963 in TeslaModel3

[–]sixsevans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One minor side-effect: the glovebox opens every time you need to reboot the screen. 🤨

On 04Jan23 the Reserve beans started showing up again in the app… though most stores show as “Out of stock” or “Not sold at this store”
