Tesla's own spec sheet for the PW3:
New Tesla Powerwall 3
- Thread starter Rocksnsalt
- Start date
where did you price the powerwall 3?

From their website.
mandatory install so $12.5k each...not even close to solark/EG4

Your claim was that the power wall 3 was going to be triple the cost? So what was the pw3 configuration and the solark/eg4 proposals?
"Just had a quote for a PW3 system, yes LiPo batteries and acting like tesla invented it!!!...3 times the price of a solark / EG4 based system and are not nearly as functional e.g. discharge options, fail over conditions etc."
27kw Tesla PW3 with 12kw solar panels for $77.5k
EG4 18kpv / EG 4 30kw battery rack with 15kw solar panels for $21k, 2k for racking, plus $5k for licensed electrician to install plus my labor to prep. OR add $2k for going SolArk.
No brainer...better feature set, more upgradeable, more production, same warranty and less musk (the last point is a joke).

Wow don't blame you, totally bananas Tesla pricing unless they were doing solar roof tiles or something.

I’ve got a quote for pw3
Seems very comparable
I’ve got 2 200 amp main breaker panels
3 pw3 with installation - $29k - 39kwh energy storage
Vs
3 Eg4 power pro + 2 Solark 15k + 2 disconnect install - $31k - 42kwh energy storage
Saves the hassle of self install.
If it remains within this range I might go pw3 - gives a better look

Tesla quoted
Let’s see what the actual install price will be, currently it’s $6500 for installation
I’m in texas so will be using night free plan to charge battery and use in the day
Not doing solar since we installed concrete tile roof and don’t want to spoil the look

I think some token solar may make you eligible for 30% investment tax credit?

Batteries only also qualify for 30% fed tax credit
So actual cost is $20k after credit

Oh well after much research looks like the powerwall inverters are crap and unreliable, I’ll likely resort to Solark and eg4 indoor for my system
Time to install mts with permit and the show will begin
