Tesla just announced that they sold their 1,000,000th powerwall. Millions of new water heaters, smart thermostats, home EV chargers, and other devices can be enrolled in demand flexibility programs.

Thank goodness I didn’t buy a Tesla or the Powerwall, or the solar tiles. Won’t use their Optimus robot, Starlink, Dojo computer, FSD self driving cars, Grok or xAI.
Avoid them all.

Peeling the Tesla sticker off my Powerwall 2 home battery. It’s an excellent piece of kit that partners beautifully with my solar PV, but increasingly feel like it’s having a swastika in the house. Would switch it out if I could afford it.
