First Tesla in the World to Have THIS Feature (Powershare Install & Test)

Рет қаралды 66,479

Күн бұрын

So this is crazy.. Tesla's been around FOREVER but FINALLY they have the ability to use the battery to power your home in case of a blackout. I finally got the feature and I had Trout Electric do the installation. It's pretty insane. It's like having a powerwall. But also, Tesla is the only company to have this feature installed directly on the truck making installation much easier and taking up less wall space in your garage. How does it work? Can the Tesla power my home during a storm and blackout?

Using your truck on the regular to power your house would be a very different use case than occasional home backup. Tesla would need to weigh in with warranty considerations.

Just another thing from an electrician who’s been around for 45 years or so, I never turn off a main breaker with loads on it, every time you exercise a breaker with a load on it there’s gonna be a good sized arc inside that breaker. So to minimize any excessive damage to large breakers, unless it’s absolutely necessary to flip that large breaker with a full load on it, I always turn off the smaller loads first and then cycle the big breaker. ⚠️ And one more safety tip: Breakers are made out of hard plastic and can crack if there is a failure of this breaker while you’re turning it on or off that energy can flash out of the panel straight at you, just go look at arc flash accidents on KZfaq ⚡️💥 So for safety reasons, you always stand to the side when you’re flipping breakers and look away because you want to save your eyes at the minimum, thereby if anything goes boom it’s going to blow out the front of the panel, but not straight into you, stay safe out there and let’s push these manufacturers like the Hyundai iconic to make them all accessible for 110 V or like the lightning pick up truck or other vehicles all EV should have 110 V power available 15 amp circuit.

Lots of good info in this video Chris. Thanks for sharing. The community knowledge-base definitely increase with the info here. Especially the Q&A at the end. My Tesla solar and PowerWall system gain features that was never conceived when it was commissioned years ago. That’s one of the cool things with Tesla, they add more features. Looking forward to seeing what more the CT to home integration can gain. One thing I would like to add with having the CT acting as a portable PowerWall is instances where power is down and PowerWall wasn’t able to charge from solar due to a storm. You can at least drive the truck to a charging site that still has power. Then bring that power back home to power the house through the night.

You are the first person to install, review, and explain the powershare product that I have seen on YT. It sounds like Foundation Series owners can get mixed results depending on where you live, regarding the powershare being installed. What was the difference between your previous tesla charger and the one that was installed? How do you know if you have the right charger already?

Excellent video Chris! I have a question I haven't been able to get an answer to and I'm wondering if you can ask Trout about it. If a customer has an already existing solar and battery backup system for their home that is NOT made by Tesla, such as Enphase batteries in my case, can I still get powershare to work after taking delivery of a Cybertruck if the electricians add the Gateway and universal Connector to my existing system? I'm sure many other people are in this situation as well and it would be strange if the homeowner couldn't buy and use powershare because they have another brand of batteries for home backup. Thanks for any input you may have!

@VishalRaoOnYouTube 16 күн бұрын

3:10 Thanks so much for asking (and answering!) this question. This is going to motivate me to get my Powerwall 3 cluster sooner than later. 6x Powerwall (6*13.5) + 1x Cybertruck is 81kWh + 123 kWh ==> 204 kWh. That's a comfortable 3 days of backup for me with full appliance usage (reverse osmosis water purification, 2 HVACs, septic system, electric dryer, dehumidifiers, and air purifiers).

@CT-zo9pe 20 күн бұрын

This is by far the best feature of the CT, which is basically a rolling powerwall/generator. I hope Tesla enables/adds this feature to the rest of the lineup (as I own a Model Y and Model 3 w/a CT on order 🤔). Everything is running off the main panel (which makes the install easier). Awesome setup 👏🏻👏🏻. RIVIAN are you guys seeing this?, The R1’s need this!!

So a 19% share of your Cybertruck battery was giving you a days worth of home power. Just to put into perspective that must be around 60 miles of driving, so demand and draw on the battery is much lower than the load for driving. Great to hear that Tesla are looking to add more functionality and that if you have a Powerwall installation is simplified. Hope that this can be rolled out to other Tesla models.

You may not of noticed or it may just be the filming frame rate but when the truck is powering your house and the green light on the wall connector shows it charging it is actually going backwards. On mine the green light goes from the top of the charger down to the cable when charging signifying that the power is coming from the charger going to the truck. It looked like your charger was going from cable or the bottom to the top signifying the power coming from the cybertruck going into the home. Just another neat feature along with the purple on the truck and charger.

I don't know why home batteries are so expensive, the F-150 lightning costs like $45k now but has the equivalent of 8 - 11 Powerwalls which would be about ~$90k but you get an ENTIRE truck alongside the backup power. The same is true with the Cybertruck ( however Cybertruck is more expensive ). I understand that home-batteries do work better with Solar, power more things, and work more seamlessly integrated with your home. But I just don't get where the expensive cost is coming from.
