Community reports 2 Powerwalls require 3 expansion batteries to order

Unconfirmed: A Reddit user says they are considering a Powerwall backup system and prefer two units, but when trying to order on Tesla's site, they report the only way to order two Powerwalls is to also include three expansion batteries. They say they only need one Powerwall for now, though they are thinking long term and about redundancy. They ask whether to order one Powerwall plus an expansion pack and modify the order later, once Tesla contacts them. They also mention two possible installation issues: the first concerns their gas meter, and the text cuts off before detailing the second.

• According to the user, ordering 2 Powerwalls requires including 3 expansion batteries.
• The user only needs one Powerwall now and is weighing long-term redundancy.
