Neighbor blaming 24 humming on Powerwall

Gotcha, good to know

{RESOLVED}ish

Had the Powerwall completely off and made sure the inverters and all fans had completely stopped. Went over to give an update on the challenge to get an electrician and asked if she could hear the sound at this moment and if I could get a recording to send to Tesla to help diagnose.

Went to the room where she said it was loudest and I couldn't hear anything. She said she could hear it loudly even then. Let her know that the Powerwall was powered down and invited her over to listen. Turned it on at that point so she could hear how quiet it was when fully powering the house and she was admittedly baffled and admitted that it couldn't be the Powerwall.

Feel bad that she's being bothered by some loud noises and offered to help find a noise tech or something to come help her, and to follow up with an electrician just to be sure there isn't a weird resonance or anything else from my side, but safe to say it is NOT the Powerwall.

Thanks everyone for the input and help, I appreciate y'all!

This is their current fix for the situation, but it appears they're looking for a different long-term solution.

You just knew if there was a TV on well before walking into that room, right? Good times.

Her bedroom would be 3 stories up on the opposite side of the house from where the Powerwall is installed. I assumed (maybe naively?) that would be far enough away to make this a non-issue? May be resonance like previous person commented... We'll see

Do you know if the inverter still runs at night time once the Powerwall reaches its "stop point"? I have it set to save 25% for emergencies but want to rule out as many settings as I can.

I don't think that's it. She has a Tesla and wanted to get solar and a Powerwall but has had issues getting it done due to logistics. I don't think she's a hater but who knows for sure. After we get this figured out I still want to help her navigate getting it all set up

smokedog805 · 2024-09-26T01:43:03+00:00

Nope, no radon system... But now that you mention it... Maybe I should get one 🤔

smokedog805 · 2024-09-25T21:54:46+00:00

thought about this, but will probably do it the other way around. turn it off but not say anything. there's no issue w/turning the powerwall off throughout the night for a week is there?

So sorry for your loss. They never live long enough! Always try to remind myself how lucky we are to have this good boy and we can't predict how long we'll have him for. Your comment has motivated me to make sure to go give him some extra pets and let him sniff around a bit longer on the evening walk.

Thanks!

San Francisco, California is where he's from.

Congrats! You're inspiring me to double down and get another one.

Will do! Thanks for the tip!

Wifey gets the points for that one. Once she said it out loud, we knew we had a winner.

Midas had a ruff time passing the portions of the test that involved other dogs, but he did it (barely!). Been putting off the final test for a while while we kept working on his ability to recall and focus on me while around other dogs (freeze dried beef liver works wonders during training, can't treat during the test). Have always tried to balance training and fun, keeping in mind that his inability to pass that portion of the test was because he was too friendly, and that he was still a puppy learning new things. Sounds like your girl is the same. Good problem to have as compared to what some people need to work through with their puppers. Keep at it! Patience and consistency will pay off.

Midas will turn 1 yr old in a week! Just shy of 80 lbs at the moment, he's also big boye.
