Just another thing from an electrician who’s been around for 45 years or so, I never turn off a main breaker with loads on it, every time you exercise a breaker with a load on it there’s gonna be a good sized arc inside that breaker. So to minimize any excessive damage to large breakers, unless it’s absolutely necessary to flip that large breaker with a full load on it, I always turn off the smaller loads first and then cycle the big breaker. ⚠️ And one more safety tip: Breakers are made out of hard plastic and can crack if there is a failure of this breaker while you’re turning it on or off that energy can flash out of the panel straight at you, just go look at arc flash accidents on CZcams ⚡️💥 So for safety reasons, you always stand to the side when you’re flipping breakers and look away because you want to save your eyes at the minimum, thereby if anything goes boom it’s going to blow out the front of the panel, but not straight into you, stay safe out there and let’s push these manufacturers like the Hyundai iconic to make them all accessible for 110 V or like the lightning pick up truck or other vehicles all EV should have 110 V power available 15 amp circuit.
Good tips, man! I'm *shocked* about some of these tips. See what I did there? 😃 Are there any specific gloves I can wear to protect my hands when turning off breakers? Like Klein Tools or something?
@@VishalRaoOnCZcams well if you really wanted to protect yourself, you would have to buy some expensive electrical gloves, but if your hand is in the way of the breaker, I’ll good pair of just heavy leather gloves is the best you can have. You’re not touching stuff you’re just trying to protect your skin, actual electrical working gloves are two pair of gloves, an inner rubber pair that you have to keep in a safe bag from puncher and dirt and nonsense with leather over gloves you can look them up just look up like lineman gloves, just to protect yourself, you’re doing thatand you want to feel more safe just some heavy heavy leather gloves if you want something longer than get a welders glove, they’re just not good for much else except Welder working with like heavy brush or something
Using your truck on the regular to power your house would be a very different use case than occasional home backup. Tesla would need to weigh in with warranty considerations.
Dude! I don't know how long you've had your studio like this but it's totally legit now. The mic and background and lighting. This is exactly what I would like mine to look like.
You are the first person to install, review, and explain the powershare product that I have seen on YT. It sounds like Foundation Series owners can get mixed results depending on where you live, regarding the powershare being installed. What was the difference between your previous tesla charger and the one that was installed? How do you know if you have the right charger already?
new tesla owner here… i’ve had my Model Y for about 3 months. still using my dryer outlet to charge so i could definitely put that charger to some good use. :)
I came across on CZcams that dryer outlets and some 240 outlets can not handle being plugged and unplugged often and can cause a short and melt. You may want to do an upgrade.
Lots of good info in this video Chris. Thanks for sharing. The community knowledge-base definitely increase with the info here. Especially the Q&A at the end. My Tesla solar and PowerWall system gain features that was never conceived when it was commissioned years ago. That’s one of the cool things with Tesla, they add more features. Looking forward to seeing what more the CT to home integration can gain. One thing I would like to add with having the CT acting as a portable PowerWall is instances where power is down and PowerWall wasn’t able to charge from solar due to a storm. You can at least drive the truck to a charging site that still has power. Then bring that power back home to power the house through the night.
This is by far the best feature of the CT, which is basically a rolling powerwall/generator. I hope Tesla enables/adds this feature to the rest of the lineup (as I own a Model Y and Model 3 w/a CT on order 🤔). Everything is running off the main panel (which makes the install easier). Awesome setup 👏🏻👏🏻. RIVIAN are you guys seeing this?, The R1’s need this!!
Not lucky enough to have electric dryer outlet as it’s gas. But the breaker is right next to the car so if I had your charger I could put it in quite easily and in my present situation it’s the only way I could afford it. The standard house outlet charging is killing me. Local to you and can pick it up.
I don't know why home batteries are so expensive, the F-150 lightning costs like $45k now but has the equivalent of 8 - 11 Powerwalls which would be about ~$90k but you get an ENTIRE truck alongside the backup power. The same is true with the Cybertruck ( however Cybertruck is more expensive ). I understand that home-batteries do work better with Solar, power more things, and work more seamlessly integrated with your home. But I just don't get where the expensive cost is coming from.
Been watching a couple of your videos since you Rivian R2 video. The more videos I watched, I realized “Wait a minute, this guys lives in the same community as I in North Irvine!” 😅. So many familiar locations in your videos.
I would love to have your old charger! I have a cybertruck using the reg outlet mobile charger 😢i can only use it every other day lol…i have paid over 8k in vet bills since owning the cybertruck or i would of got it.
3:10 Thanks so much for asking (and answering!) this question. This is going to motivate me to get my Powerwall 3 cluster sooner than later. 6x Powerwall (6*13.5) + 1x Cybertruck is 81kWh + 123 kWh ==> 204 kWh. That's a comfortable 3 days of backup for me with full appliance usage (reverse osmosis water purification, 2 HVACs, septic system, electric dryer, dehumidifiers, and air purifiers).
11:47 Notice the direction of the lights. When charging your car the green beam "travels" DOWN into the car. When PowerSharing into your home, the green beam "travels" UP into your home.
I just got my Model Y the end of May. I did my own 14-50 hubbell install but would love to have an actual wall charger its my 49 birthday Thursday. When I did the wiring run I built it with the hopes I could get a Tesla Wall charger by just swapping it in when the time comes.
If you have a Powerwall installed with solar panels, the Tesla app has a setting to which you can direct excess solar production exclusively to your Tesla vehicle. it's called "Charge On Solar".
New Model 3 owner and would love your charger as I do not have one yet. The 110v charger is impractical so the supercharger is my only current option. First time viewing and I indeed liked and subscribed to the channel. Looking forward to seeing more content.
My installer was able to include microwave and oven but not the AC due to LRA limitation. I’m sure you have a sub panel inside that powers everything outside of main panel that has your AC Oven and Solar.
Excellent video Chris! I have a question I haven't been able to get an answer to and I'm wondering if you can ask Trout about it. If a customer has an already existing solar and battery backup system for their home that is NOT made by Tesla, such as Enphase batteries in my case, can I still get powershare to work after taking delivery of a Cybertruck if the electricians add the Gateway and universal Connector to my existing system? I'm sure many other people are in this situation as well and it would be strange if the homeowner couldn't buy and use powershare because they have another brand of batteries for home backup. Thanks for any input you may have!
So a 19% share of your Cybertruck battery was giving you a days worth of home power. Just to put into perspective that must be around 60 miles of driving, so demand and draw on the battery is much lower than the load for driving. Great to hear that Tesla are looking to add more functionality and that if you have a Powerwall installation is simplified. Hope that this can be rolled out to other Tesla models.
You may not of noticed or it may just be the filming frame rate but when the truck is powering your house and the green light on the wall connector shows it charging it is actually going backwards. On mine the green light goes from the top of the charger down to the cable when charging signifying that the power is coming from the charger going to the truck. It looked like your charger was going from cable or the bottom to the top signifying the power coming from the cybertruck going into the home. Just another neat feature along with the purple on the truck and charger.
Nice video I am hoping they retroactively enable powershare for the model 3.This would be so much better supplementing a whole home Powerwall back up system instead of it being a standalone partial back up system
Universal wall connector is showing the led lights going the opposite direction that it normally cycles when it is charging. It is going to opposite direction when you are running off from the cybertruck.
11:45 it actually looks like the green pulse is moving in an opposite direction of normal. I have a gen 3 and I know the green pulse starts at the top and moves down. Here it looks like the pulse starts at the cable side and moves up, indicating power is coming from the cable.
@@EverydayChris I wonder if there's something hardware wise with the Cybertruck that none of the other models can PowerShare. It's a really cool feature. I've been looking at adding solar panels and/or a power wall, but if there's a software update that the Model 3 can PowerShare with the new universal wall connector, that might be interesting. Also, I really like your content and just subscribed! I'm filming a bunch of Tesla stuff as a TV meteorologist that made the switch to EV.
Looks like there's still a lot of work needed for PowerShare to match the capabilities of a Powerwall installation. As it's implemented now, CT with PowerShare will unlikely take away market share from Powerwall. Maybe that's by design, especially since PowerShare supposedly works with any homes with Powerwalls. It would be interesting to know if Tesla will allow PowerShare to participate in VPP and send stored power back to the grid during extreme demand periods in the future. Perhaps that's possible for homes that already have Powerwalls?
I understand the universal charger and the gateway comes with foundation series also $2500 to purchase equipments, what other equipments do you need for the installation which can be purchased with Tesla credits also how much does it cost to you, I see you haven’t replied to previous comments on the cost but if you can give us a ballpark estimate that would be nice.
I would really like this wall charger as I just got my first ev and first Tesla but only have the slow wall outlet charger. I commute my Tesla to work so I would really appreciate this
hey ive owned my model 3 for about a year now still using a dryer outlet in my garage that only reaches one space in my driveway. having the wall connector could reach any space would be pretty nice 😂
I would like to see, not only solar integration (solar stays on inside the gateway like with a powerwall during an outage), but the ability with a powerwall to combine the powerwall inverter kw capacity with the truck 11kw capacity and the solar capacity to cover all the breakers on the panel. Put my name in the hat for the wall charger.
Great to see the V2H in action it is quite impressive. And having so many kWh available is great. We have Powerwalls and Solar and really like it. The takeover is so fast the TV and computers are not effected. But had the V2G been available I would have been tempted to go that way and use the Power in our X and 3. Hopefully Tesla will bring V2G on all their vehicle by the time we need to replace the Powerwalls.
Great vid with good information. Thank you. I just bought my Tesla a month ago (Model 3). Not a Cybertruck sadly. Would not mind having your wall adapter if you are getting rid of it. Keep up the great videos!
have had my tesla for about 5 months now absolutely love it. Except for having to drive out to charge it :( Charger would help me out simply because parents are iffy about me installing it at home.
Living in Texas the nema 1450 that came with my car gets degraded and charges slower due to the plug over heating. Wall unit I have been told would not have this issue. If you still looking for someone to take it off your hands let me know. Thanks!
Thx Chris your video is really helpful! Just got the email from Qmerit and was able to link up with my local electrician, Accel Electric, here in Las Vegas.
Not sure if you covered it, but besides getting the permit, did the install and activating have to be coordinated with the county or utility company? I'm thinking of how when I got solar panels installed, a lot of the paperwork waiting and eventual permission to turn on was on the county permitting side.
Love the video and super jealous. Curious about the fact your breakers are on the outside of your house. So anyone or the elements can turn the power off any time?
Great video Chris. Nice to know as I live in Southwest Florida and been dragging my feet on configuring cybertruck. Really waiting for none foundation series order. Would purchase your system at another time but would definitely need that to power AC since it’s brutal here especially in the summer
Great Video Chris! Ive been waiting for a video to see how this all works, nicely done. You could also use the NEMA 14/50 in the rear of the Cyber truckto backfeed your panel if you have a interlock and a NEMA 14/50 generator socket connected to a 50amp breaker, but it's very manual. Please pop me in the hat for the power charger. Thanks
What is the maximum load (amps at 120v/240v) you can have on when the cyber truck is powering your house. In other words how many watts is the inverter rated for?
Hey Everyday Chris. I’d love to grab that charger off you. Here’s an idea. I live in Vancouver BC. Do a road trip down here. It would make a great CZcams vid.
Sure I'll take the wall charger and that old solar Edge inverter that you want to get rid of when you do the next update. Maybe it will motivate me to buy a Tesla. I dont think elon will let me design the Tesla CR yet. I keep sending a few ideas. One i sent today. Need to be able to charge at higher amps and dc direct i am adding at amps i choose and at times i want. From solar or from dc on battery. I was trying to find someone that made a home diy super charger. . Its like youtube is hiding these videos. ?? Maybe need to look on musicly?
I just watched this video, and you mention in the video you are getting rid of the current TESLA wall charger and to subscribe and leave a comment if interested. I do not currently have a tesla wall charger and am very interested. I Love your videos. Bought my first TESLA model Y performance in April. Your videos have helped me to decide the best settings, accessories to get and helped me to understand the ins and out of charging when going on a long road trip, which I plan on doing in the near future. Thank you! Keep the videos coming.

⚠️ And one more safety tip:
Breakers are made out of hard plastic and can crack if there is a failure of this breaker while you’re turning it on or off that energy can flash out of the panel straight at you, just go look at arc flash accidents on CZcams ⚡️💥
So for safety reasons, you always stand to the side when you’re flipping breakers and look away because you want to save your eyes at the minimum, thereby if anything goes boom it’s going to blow out the front of the panel, but not straight into you, stay safe out there and let’s push these manufacturers like the Hyundai iconic to make them all accessible for 110 V or like the lightning pick up truck or other vehicles all EV should have 110 V power available 15 amp circuit.

I think the Tesla stock values just increased because of your video.........What an ambassador for Tesla
10:42 dude the purple color is such a nice touch! they use blue, red, and green already, so purple is a perfect choice!

First Tesla roadster also had bidirectional charging
Hi I just saw you in Irvine, we were in a blue Tesla model 3. On June 16 approximately 12:30 PM.
Hi
I would love to have your old charger! I have a cybertruck using the reg outlet mobile charger 😢i can only use it every other day lol…i have paid over 8k in vet bills since owning the cybertruck or i would of got it.

How about solar panel charging your Cybertruck if no consumption from household?

I can't wait to get tesla (maybe) when it my birthday in 2 months! :)
Cual es tú edad?
Hey Chris,
Great Video and review on Home Charging. I just got a Tesla Model Y and would like to have that Wall Charger if it’s available.
Thank you.
Tesla prob doesnt want people to diy their installations and potentially burning down their house. Put me down for the wall charger 🔌 ⚡️ Chris.
New Model 3 owner and would love your charger as I do not have one yet. The 110v charger is impractical so the supercharger is my only current option. First time viewing and I indeed liked and subscribed to the channel. Looking forward to seeing more content.
Moving into a new house soon, wouldn't mind that charger ;)

October will be my 2nd year since being a tesla owner and been using 120v. It will be nice to get an upgrade.
Hi bought my model Y for a month so far. And the closest supercharger is 15 -20 mins from home. So this charger would def be of great benefit!! 😀
Good video,
You are one of the reasons we have a model Y on order. Keep up the good work
I would love the wall charger! I watch you all the time... I have a Tesla Y Model
Crazy that the installation took the whole day. Our entire solar + powerwall+ installation by Tesla took 4 hours for the whole project!
wow

I wish they did. I think with other models you need that AC inverter which only the CT has built in. So they would have to build a box for it
I have a powerwall+ which has a built in inverter so I think that could be used. 🤞🤞
Thank You for All that you are doing for our Planet Earth....
Peace.. Shalom.. Salam.. Namaste .. 🙏🏻 😊 ✌ ☮ ❤ 🕊
Pass the wall charger to me big dawg 😂
I can't remember the last time I had a power outage in my city. Don't know how much useful is this thing
It happens. We had a 5 hour outage yesterday. It took out 2500 homes. High winds caused a line to short out.
Yes!! I've been waiting for this video! Awesome Edit, Chris! I love this one!
Thanks man!!
Universal wall connector is showing the led lights going the opposite direction that it normally cycles when it is charging. It is going to opposite direction when you are running off from the cybertruck.
Thanks for the plethora of information. I've already subbed to you so I hope just commenting works, I really could use a home charge.
Trout Electric did my Tesla Wall charger installation back in 2018 and they did an awesome job! 😊
Nice!!

Just the uni charger and the gateway is all you need. Depending on how complicated it is the electrician can charge for more stuff

You sure that’s Scott and not DJTJ?! 😂
Hahaah
Awesome to be self reliant when the power goes out! Would love to get your old charger!
Electrician dude is a total natural on camera 💪🏼
That Tesla wall charger looks mighty fine..
meh..........
Have you found a lock for the PowerShare gateway?
not yet.. it doesnt seem like it can be locked maybe due to local laws needing to turn off power in case of an emergency
hey ive owned my model 3 for about a year now still using a dryer outlet in my garage that only reaches one space in my driveway. having the wall connector could reach any space would be pretty nice 😂
I would like to see, not only solar integration (solar stays on inside the gateway like with a powerwall during an outage), but the ability with a powerwall to combine the powerwall inverter kw capacity with the truck 11kw capacity and the solar capacity to cover all the breakers on the panel.

Just use a cutout switch on your home power input and turn off the power coming to your house to use powershare when electricity is more expensive
Great to see the V2H in action it is quite impressive. And having so many kWh available is great.
We have Powerwalls and Solar and really like it. The takeover is so fast the TV and computers are not effected.

Great vid with good information. Thank you. I just bought my Tesla a month ago (Model 3). Not a Cybertruck sadly. Would not mind having your wall adapter if you are getting rid of it. Keep up the great videos!
Taking forever to get the feature flag added to my account/VIN to get powershare working... im getting antsy
have had my tesla for about 5 months now absolutely love it. Except for having to drive out to charge it :( Charger would help me out simply because parents are iffy about me installing it at home.
bro you can go to your local supplier and get the gateway 3 and powerwall 3 for under 9k$....however you do need to be trained to activate the system
My uncle just got a cyber beast and I bet he would love to have your old charge thingy.
Bruh I needs that wall charger, please 🙏🏽
Living in Texas the nema 1450 that came with my car gets degraded and charges slower due to the plug over heating. Wall unit I have been told would not have this issue. If you still looking for someone to take it off your hands let me know. Thanks!
Deffently could use that!! Sign me up for the raffle, lol
Can you be a part of the Tesla VPP program with just the car and no powerwalls ?
Did you get a white wrap on your Cybertruck? Video soon?
Thx Chris your video is really helpful! Just got the email from Qmerit and was able to link up with my local electrician, Accel Electric, here in Las Vegas.
NICE!!
ask about qmerit hidden fees. they tend to mark up 600-800 dollars
I'll take your old wall charger!!!🥹🙏🏼
How much for the wall connector
Hi, how are you able to see the solar coming in your house without a power wall?🤔
Would using it as a home battery, would it void your warranty?
Can’t wait for this to be rolled out to All Teslas. Then people will want a Tesla! Want that connector 😅!!
I just got my Tesla and it would be amazing to get your charging cable
What’s in your garage panels? Insulation?
Not sure if you covered it, but besides getting the permit, did the install and activating have to be coordinated with the county or utility company? I'm thinking of how when I got solar panels installed, a lot of the paperwork waiting and eventual permission to turn on was on the county permitting side.
Not for us!
So it’s just a transfer switch and a Tesla car charger that can send and receive power?
waiting on my MY performance Quicksilver! id love a charger!
I ordered a model Y because of your videos. Would love to win your charger 😊 thanks for the great content
Love the video and super jealous. Curious about the fact your breakers are on the outside of your house. So anyone or the elements can turn the power off any time?
I think it’s a safety issue in case there’s a fire and they have to turn it off? I have a lock on mine
Tesla solar roof and power walls are the future off the grid energy source at least until we get compact fusion.
Great video Chris. Nice to know as I live in Southwest Florida and been dragging my feet on configuring cybertruck. Really waiting for none foundation series order. Would purchase your system at another time but would definitely need that to power AC since it’s brutal here especially in the summer
So did you pick who won the charger yet?
Is Tesla going to open up PowerShare for other Tesla models?
I could put the charger to good use. Thanks
How did you get your SolarEdge inverter to communicate with the Tesla app???
it just did it when I first got solar. I think there's another gateway near my router that needs to connect
@@EverydayChris ah, that explains... sadly I don't have that :/
Hey Chris keep up the work! Would love to upgrade my nema plug
Great Video Chris! Ive been waiting for a video to see how this all works, nicely done. You could also use the NEMA 14/50 in the rear of the Cyber truckto backfeed your panel if you have a interlock and a NEMA 14/50 generator socket connected to a 50amp breaker, but it's very manual. Please pop me in the hat for the power charger. Thanks
What is the maximum load (amps at 120v/240v) you can have on when the cyber truck is powering your house. In other words how many watts is the inverter rated for?
Hey Everyday Chris. I’d love to grab that charger off you. Here’s an idea. I live in Vancouver BC. Do a road trip down here. It would make a great CZcams vid.
I can use your wall connector!!! 😅
Sure I'll take the wall charger and that old solar Edge inverter that you want to get rid of when you do the next update. Maybe it will motivate me to buy a Tesla. I dont think elon will let me design the Tesla CR yet. I keep sending a few ideas. One i sent today. Need to be able to charge at higher amps and dc direct i am adding at amps i choose and at times i want. From solar or from dc on battery.
I was trying to find someone that made a home diy super charger. . Its like youtube is hiding these videos. ?? Maybe need to look on musicly?
Some people be hating tesla until they get one and fell in love with it 😂
Did you wrap your cybertruck in white and think no one would notice 🔥
Great video and well explained. Will greatly benefit from your wall charger. Thank you.
Nice video. I'm interested in taking your old wall connector. Thanks!
I just watched this video, and you mention in the video you are getting rid of the current TESLA wall charger and to subscribe and leave a comment if interested. I do not currently have a tesla wall charger and am very interested. I Love your videos. Bought my first TESLA model Y performance in April. Your videos have helped me to decide the best settings, accessories to get and helped me to understand the ins and out of charging when going on a long road trip, which I plan on doing in the near future. Thank you! Keep the videos coming.
Picking up my Model Y tomorrow and could definitely give that charger a new home :).
