Powerwall Disabled: Service Required Low Energy Lockout ? [recall issued in Australia and US currently - 11.13.2025]
This morning I checked the Tesla app and noticed something strange, it's at 0% but discharging. Normally it is close to 100% charge as I have free nights. I have reset the gateway, toggle PW on/off but no helps. Now, I got the message from the app Powerwall Disabled: Service Required Low Energy Lockout I have contacted my installer, have anyone seen this before ? They are only 4 years old, so anything should be under warranty except labor.

FRONT TRUNK SENSOR ISSUE!
Recently received our new MY FSD AWD w/tow hitch 18xxx on 6/25 - we’ve been having issues with the front trunk giving alerts that the trunk is open even though it’s latched. I had a recent mobile service tech visit on 7/15 to address this along with other fitment and alignment issues and am
Supercharger - Key West, FL
Tesla Charging Winter 2023 Supercharger location winners were announced a little over a month ago. Yet I see no mention of Key West being one of the winners besides the tweet. Nothing on Supercharger.Info or Tesla official map of SuperCharger locations and coming soon locations. https://twitter.com/x/status/1643417256997834754

Driving Model 3 for a month now
My model 3 is a standard one of november 2022, with the LFP-battery and the new computerchip. It took me some time to get used to it I have to say. The car itself I find fantastic, how it looks and rides, but some tricks of the computer are a pain. After a month I must decide that FSD is not my cup of tea. I just like to hold the wheel myself and feel the car in my hands.
MegaCharger - Conley GA
Back in April 2025, when Tesla announced their first wave of Semi charging deployments, I noted that four of them were in Georgia, and so created a thread here for tracking the MegaCharger sites in the Southeast US (aligning with TMC’s regional forum structure for reporting charging sites)
Supercharger - Orangeburg, SC - I-26 at US-301 (Five Chop Road)
(Correct me if this is mentioned elsewhere, but) I see that Tesla’s FindUs shows a new site under construction at the intersection of I-26 and US-301 (aka Five Chop Rd), near Orangeburg SC. Tesla says third-party owned. While this is near a Love’s and a Quiktrip, if one can trust the pin, it

I built an app to turn the Tesla browser into a real dashboard (Inspired by a road trip)
Hey everyone, I’m the creator of a new app for Tesla owners, and I’d love to share it with you guys to get some honest feedback. The whole project actually started during a road trip through Spain this past summer. I kept looking at that beautiful 15-inch screen and realized how much I wanted
What non Tesla EV would you choose and why?
I’m in a seemingly endless search to replace my MYLR. I’m curious what others have considered (or bought) as a runner up to the MYLR. I’ve come full circle starting with the Ioniq 5, then Ford F150 lightning (big change there but fires?!), Volvo EX30, Polestar 3, now back to Ioniq 5. There
Is this a valid/proper stacking of a PW3 and expansion battery?
This doesn't look right to me.

What key for a surfer?
Hi, I'm considering a Model Y. Currently I use my Apple Watch to lock and unlock my BMW X5 when I go surfing. However, because that is not 100% foolproof (I lost my watch once) I use a lock box attached to the door handle with a valet key in it, just in case. I used to use a key card, but it cracked after multiple times in the ocean. So what to do with a Model Y. There's no place to attach a lock box from what I can see. I don't want roof racks. Any ideas?
