Right, so you won't be able to use an app to monitor your Powerwall while it's offline... the battery's still going to work. Backup and off-grid are advertised use cases. Tesla's cars have the "cloud-connected, remote-controlled" stuff too, but they don't stop in the middle of the road if you leave cell phone coverage.
- Animats 10y agoThe nominal product life is 5,000 charge/discharge cycles, or 13-14 years if solar powered. Maintenance monitoring, including battery deterioration, is remote, from Tesla's end. Will that service still be running in 2030?
- quickben 10y agoThere will have to be onsite maintenance for battery/invertor swaps long before any battery power product, let alone energy backup, reaches 5000 cycles of lifespan.
