    Great job as well, I need to win the lottery and fly you down here to do my install. ;) Your price per powerwall? I found $8500 per on the internet. If I bought 2 Tesla Powerwall 3's for 17k how much to install them on a square d 200 amp service panel?

    • @SolarEngineering

      Install in my area with Tesla Backup switch and no re-wiring n the main panel will be ~$2.5-3k. Another ~$1400 will be permit documents/fees, utility provider fee.

    How difficult is it to pair two power wall 3s inverters? I need my solar company to come back and finish my second powerwall 3. They were hoping the expansion version would be available soon so they could save money on their installation. I already paid in full..... I like the idea of inverter redundancy even if its half the panels (installed is 29 405 watt panels, intent would be 15 on one and 14 on the other.)

    • @SolarEngineering

      To install another powerwall, they will need to run communication cable between powerwalls, AC 6AWG from powerwall to AC disconnect and then to electrical panel 60A breaker.

      I did install Powerwall+ only before so have limited experience with non 3 version, PW3 is easier because of pre-made knockouts, communication via cat6, single unit (instead of 2 with PW+) and yes it's LFP chemistry

    • @SolarEngineering
      @SolarEngineering 16 годин тому

      I like IronRidge flashing more than Unirac. Unirac is just flat metal, when IR has some ledge around mount, which is helping to divert water. Unirac rails is more convenient because it's flat on 2 sides, vs IR has non square profile. But both of them are good brands. I didn't use snapnrack.

    I agree with other comments - that this test is not a fair test because of the way you do shading. The hard shading invokes 2/3 of the bypass diodes which bypass the panel, but the optimizer softened that, and made it worse. But if you do more realistic shading, or make the panels off-axis, then you'll see how the optimizers can improve things. Here you have created an artificially "unoptimizable" problem, which makes the optimizers look bad.
