Top Comments of this video!! :3
27:00 the $5.75 isnāt just to have an account. Itās your fee to be connected to the grid so you get to use it (through net metering) as a huge battery backup by proxy! Not bad for effectively having a backup thatās gigawatt-hours in size!

Really interesting, thanks for sharing this data! One thought is.. The solar panels are under warranty for 25 years, but probably not the power walls? As we all know batteries don't often last too many years, so the power walls would likely need to be replaced after 10 years? Adding a longer payback period, as I'm sure Tesla battery banks of that size are a large cost.

The coolest thing in my opinion, that you mentioned is the seamless transition to going off grid when thereās a power outage. Thatās crazy that you donāt know that a power outage happened because youāre already running off of solar and battery power and not off the grid so nothing changed.
If I was in the situation, imagine myself watching TV at 10 oāclock at night and looking out the window and my neighborhood being completely black and then Iām going. ā huh We must have a power outage right now.ā

I live in Thailand, here, about 90% of the year we have cloudless skies and the sun shines really strong during the day. The amount of daylight doesn't change much throughout the year; we get light from 6 am until around 6:30-7 pm. I believe that in countries like this, having roof solar panels like this would be a game-changer for everyone.

So it appears Tesla found a bug in their app after watching this video that accidentally counted all production and usage totals as DOUBLE their actual numbers. Doesn't affect my payback timeline calculations, but it does make more sense that I was seeing ~4000kWh of production in a month, not 8000 š¤
