Hey, I'm Sven from This Guy Edits, a YT channel with over 400K subs. I've recently become a Tesla fanboy and want to document my experience with the Tesla Solar Glass Roof as it is being installed on my house.
It's been years in the making and this version three roof is supposed to be finally ready for prime-time. Generally, I try not to be an early adopter, and would rather like to see proof of concept first. But since the Federal Tax Credit is about to run out, I decided to take the plunge now and see if it works out.

Using your garden hose, would have been faster and cheaper than buying a pump. I guess you were trying to be eco friendly though. So you accomplished that.
lol 4,000 dollars just to throw down the drain… that’s what it cost me to build my own entire off grid solar system with inverter, 48v batteries and 5 kw solar panels 😂
Man I feel like people that want this just talk themself into it lol. Learn how to put standing seam panels on your own roof. Ridiculously easy. Buy the Tesla battery off marketplace haha. Save money at every corner
What a nightmare of a roof to install Tesla panels on. Good grief.
Thank you for sharing sir.
What an excellent well balanced and informative video. I am inspired but will a Tesla roof be as effective in the UK?
Love it Bruh... looks like you live an Hour South of us... and more and more I’m seeing the Solar paired up with the heat pumps on the Roof tops .... and Quite Fankley ~ it just Turns me on. I love the Concept and I can feel it in my Bones that we are finally getting started. ~ Hopefully Donald Rump doesn’t get Elected Because he will try to Stop it ..
Hopefully you‘re back with more videos like your roofing videos, I really liked them and I’m curious about your garage roof 😍
price is the primary problem with the Tesla solar shingles. I opted for a somewhat frugal 20 panel regular rooftop solar system around 2017. I will likely look to replace it sometime around 2030 as I will likely need a new roof by then. I hope by then the solar shingle roof is more competitively priced. I should have more money for a large system at that time but if the shingles are still like 4x the cost of a regular roof with traditional rooftop solar, I'll have to pass again. That is way too large of a premium.
I love Josh, the garden and I like the roof and how you send the message out. und Frohes Neues Jahr von good old germany

A lot of work to get only a few active solar rows. The waferboard (not "plywood") covering would have been needed for most roofing, indeed strange that asphalt shingles had been installed over those large gaps, so ignore that price, plus the flashing and fascia boards. The sticky underlayment that Tesla uses is very expensive, and normally only used on almost flat roof sections, like over a porch. For asphalt shingles, concrete tiles, or metal panels, a much less-expensive polymer sheet is fine (I wouldn't use tar-paper). I don't know why more don't offer a Solar Carport, which gives protection for your car(s), makes access to the panel wiring easier, no risk of leaks damaging your home, and no pigeons nesting underneath. Perhaps that will be Elon's next genius. Humorous that they need safety harnesses for a 4 in 12 pitch one-story roof, but better safe than oops.
More videos! I like your videos but obviously there have been none for a while. Can you review things or maybe document the weather etc? 🤷♂️
This is so awesome, I wish I found your video before I replaced my roof. I went metal because I didn't know the tesla option although I did think about a solar tile roof without knowing that this wasn't a dream. The metal roof was very expensive, I would go with tesla roof if I knew it existed.
your water bill is so cheap
I'm going down the path of solar now and am loving finding all of these videos. Sadly the math for the tesla solar roof seems to have shifted a lot, Tesla's contractor quoted me at $200k compared to equivalent production panels + a 50 year shingle roof for $50k.
7 guys on a roof..wow 😲😲
$50,000 total cost. The approximate average monthly electric bill is $300(most average homeowners. lol who pay a $1600 monthly electric bill lol). $50,000/$400=167 months = 13.8 years to make even. lol, no thank you.
How has your powerwalls performed since you had it installed outside? Any problems with degraded performance due to varying temps of heat and cold? Any rust or critter problems? If you can redo, will you still install it outside?
If you're spending that much watering your lawn, even in a hot climate, you're drastically overwatering. My water usage doesn't even add up to that for an entire year. A properly maintained, healthy lawn takes very little water. That said, what I will say, is that your yard looks MUCH better that 99.9% of the "wild" yards out there. Most people use it as an excuse to do literally zero lawn maintenance.
Your yard looks great to me. I think biggest issue with solar panels, are the spent panels. Recycling them is not and probably never will be profitable. That being said I do have solar, and financially has save me a lot.
The guy is one of those people who will vote to require people to have these things are the state will come in and take everything from you. He is a moron.
One area that I haven't seen anyone discuss with this roof is how much cooler is your Attic with the tesla roof compared to when you had asphalt shingles. Any idea?
I had a similar problem with NPD 'Nocturnal Power Drop-off' - I got round this by installing some 'Lunar Panels' along side of the solar ones - very effective...
Thanks for being so honest on the financials. Learned a lot from this clip.
It is crazy that he is doing all the math about costs but he’s still living in CA. Let’s see how much I can save in energy so I can pay my taxes.
i just got a quote for my tesla roof at 226k. my roof is 4k square feet and has no plywood. so this includes 30k for plywood and does not include the 30% tax credit. which will be around 60k. all in all, the total should be 156k for the roof after tax rebates. i already have 3 powerwalls and that was 41k. but i really need a roof since it is wood shakes and a metal roof without solar is 120k. so for 30k more i can get an all in one system.
This panel can put out close to 100 watts czcams.com/users/postUgkxOqI2yqX0XVrhR2BMJciTWrHJpG8FhJyg when positioned in the appropriate southernly direction, tilted to the optimal angle for your latitude/date, and connected to a higher capacity device than a 500. The built in kickstand angle is a fixed at 50 degrees. Up to 20% more power can be output by selecting the actual date and latitude optimal angle.The 500 will only input 3.5A maximum at 18 volts for 63 watts. Some of the excess power from the panel can be fed into a USB battery bank, charged directly from the panel while also charging a 500. This will allow you to harvest as much as 63 + 15 = 78 watts.If this panel is used to charge a larger device, such as the power station, then its full output potential can be realized.

Does your savings offset the cost of the panels? That problem some people are having is it's going to take years before they actually see any savings. I just watched your video, The Damage on My Tesla Solar Roof.
At 7:20 in the video, you zoomed in on the roof and the Tesla tile looked like they were warped. Also, wouldn’t the rain rinse the dirt from the panels?
I started in solar in 1979- the hard science and proof of solar panels being a good investment has been settled decades ago. But that is with conventional simple "traditional" solar panels where the basic design has not changed in 70 years. What people here are missing here is "How long will Tesla solar panels last?" Because unless their panels last 20-30 years without problems - you simply cannot say! The unusual complexity of their panels basic design makes the chances of that long life a very bad bet. Saying they are great in the first few years is like saying a car is reliable as you drive it off the dealers parking lot for the very first time! Sorry, but only 20-30 years of reliable performance in the real world will prove if their panels design is reliable and a good investment.
The main question is ....what was the total cost of the complete system verses how many years it will take to pay for it.
Going to clean solar units to see if they work better...... you really made that a question?! And that brings up another good point, not only is this ridiculously expensive, but id never make a return on it because my bill is consistently $50 and i only use about 4,000kwh per year according to my statement And since i only pay about $600/year theres absolutely no point to invest because investing would just be a waste of money And thats based on the fact that i wanted to add a BASIC setup to my garage to get about 100wh to the garage and even that was gonna cost over $1k
Couldn't you use tap water for the initial cleaning, then rinse with tap?
I got a quote of $65k to install Tesla sunroof. Cool, paying $65 k to save $130 a month , and get a new roof which is about $19k. 😂
Good job, good video!
Wow, only 5.9 peak? I don't know what my peak potential is but I'm getting 8.0 on my 24 solar panels from SunPower usually between 11am and 1pm. They cost me a penny though, $46k, but with Net meetering and Solar savings I hope to make up that cost in 8 years or less. (Net meetering is selling back the Solar energy Im not using which is usually the entire time the Sun is up. Think of it as your meter running backwards since more energy is generated than I am using). It comes out to about $4 on bad days and $10+ on good sunny days). I expect to probably pay 2 to 3 hundred dollars per year where my avg was $500 per month.
Did your house have a pride flag? Lmao
1600 annual. So in 10 years you get your money back on the batteries about the time you have to replace them and are still in the hole 35K for the panels. So the only people making out are the Chinese whom make the panels and the Politicians getting rich pushing it.
Wait.... can you talk about how to get a joshua tree growing ?
Why would anyone pay for services of such magnitude prior to final installation and approval?
So many do not realize that Hank Hill’s lawn obsession is a parody of American cluelessness.
Yours is an inspiring story. Thanks for generously sharing your finance info.
Beautiful house and piece of property mate. My wife and I dream of the day we have our own little place with solar and everything else we could want. 8 years into EV ownership and the misrepresentation of solar and EVs in this country is just mind blowing. I definitely have to remind myself constantly that IQ is a bell curve.
