Tesla Powerwall - Tesla home battery

Potential prediction: Phase X will be Tesla selling additional battery packs for standard cars. So that when you get home, your car's excess electricity (if you don't drive a Tesla) can be back fed to power your home. Thus it also takes care of situations where solar panels are not "allowed" as well as furthers their battery business and further reduces electrical utility dependency.

Until this thing powers my space capsule to Mars, having one on the house will have to do.

This is the coolest thing ever, but... I really wish Tesla would come out with a more portable battery. Something I could carry around in my pocket so I could power my cell phone, Apple Watch or laser gun.

I like how this man thinks in terms of generations and not years

This might potentially do to home energy management system what nest did to thermostats. It is powerful, elegant and with combined expertise of Tesla(on battery tech) and Solar (solar city) can be disruptive. The cost of solar energy, especially in a country like India is only a fraction above coal and with huge solar generation potential, it can be a game changer!

I hunted this last night. Guess I did it wrong. Tesla Energy: New lithium power ion battery for your home http://www.producthunt.com/r/faa... via @dannyoz7787 on @ProductHunt

A few months ago, i was thinking that why people are not innovating in Battery domain. And, here it is :)

This will also muddy any elitism for having a Tesla. "Yeah, I've got a Tesla", "Really, I just love my S model. What kind do you have?", "Home battery", "Oh, yeah,...that's cool too..."

I can't wait for this to arrive in Canada.

Does anyone know exactly how this will integrate into my home power system and how the hand-off works in a power outage?
