User reports Powerwall 3 charging from grid by day on Octopus Go

📍 Reddit Powerwall

Unconfirmed: a Reddit user reports that their home was consuming 5-6 kW in the afternoon with no apparent cause. With the EV unplugged, they identified the Powerwall 3 as the source, which was charging from the grid during daytime hours. According to the user, the battery normally charges overnight at the off-peak rate. They state that they changed no settings, that the Powerwall remains in savings mode, that Storm Watch is off, and that their rate plan is Intelligent Octopus Go 12M Fixed. The text mentions one recent change, but the description is cut off in the source.…

🔎 Why it matters: No official confirmation exists: the report attributes daytime grid charging to the Powerwall 3 with savings mode active, which the user says had not happened on the Intelligent Octopus Go 12M Fixed plan.
📈 Upside: Not applicable.
📉 Risk: If daytime grid charging repeats, the consumption could fall outside the off-peak rate of the cited plan.
