Installing PowerShare

[CyberGus]

With my AWD order placed, I've been making inquiries about installation of the Universal Wall Connector and PowerShare Gateway. Most EVSE installers I called had no clue, or outright refused, since they have no experience with Powerwalls.

I finally got a response today from a Tesla-Authorized solar installer, wanting to know if I was a Tesla employee with a Cybertruck, because I was not "on the list". Apparently they are configuring the first of these Powershare configs for a handful of local CT owners that work at Tesla.

At the moment they know little, since they've not actually completed one yet, but soon!

They did indicate that PowerShare was much simpler than the Ford setup, since the F-150L outputs DC, requiring an external inverter. The Cybertruck outputs AC directly.

I still don't have an estimate, but one of the electricians saw my photos and gasped at my 80's vintage equipment. They're suggesting I'll need to replace the main panel, and everything back to the main feed.

This is gonna be more expensive than I thought ?

I don’t think the v3 gateway is even shipping yet.

I have 400A service. Will have to split PowerShare on a 200A branch and pick what it feeds.

I’m curious if Tesla will allow rate shifting with a CT since it adds battery cycles daily.

You’ll get this email after you order your founders Cyberbeast. I got mine about two day after. Fill out the survey and then Tesla will contact you when they are ready.
