User report: Powerwall 3 ignores Tesla app settings after shutdown
Unconfirmed: A Reddit user reports that their three Powerwall 3 units (two master and one slave) ignore settings changes made in the Tesla app after a shutdown procedure for electrical work. According to the post, changes between self-powered and savings mode, and the export and charge-from-grid permissions, are not applied. With export disabled, solar generation would still be sent to the grid while the batteries are at 7%. The post is truncated and includes no response from Tesla or diagnosis.
- Three Powerwall 3 units (two master, one slave) after a shutdown procedure.
- Export disabled, but solar would still go to the grid with batteries at 7%.
🔎 Why it matters: There is no official confirmation from Tesla. This is a user report about self-powered and savings modes and the export and charge-from-grid permissions in the app, after restarting three Powerwall 3 units.
📈 Upside: Not applicable.
📉 Risk: According to the user, the batteries remain at 7% while solar is being exported, so backup charge would not be recovering.
