However, as always, there are some caveats.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>In this article, I&#8217;ll deeply dive into the Tesla Powerwall warranty.\u00a0 Below I&#8217;m going to&#8230;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Quickly review what the Powerwall can do.<\/li>\n<li>Describe how the warranty can cover either an unlimited number of cycles OR 37,800 kilowatt-hours (kWh).<\/li>\n<li>Explain why trying to stick to the unlimited cycles warranty condition is pointless for nearly all households.<\/li>\n<li>Reveal how, instead of a repair or replacement, Tesla might just provide a (potentially tiny) refund.<\/li>\n<li>Cover how the warranty will only last <em>four<\/em> years if the Powerwall isn&#8217;t registered and connected to the internet.<\/li>\n<li>Give the good news: you are also protected by Australian Consumer Guarantees.<\/li>\n<li>Give the bad news: Tesla has a record of being slow to meet their obligations under Australian consumer law.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>What Is A Powerwall?<\/h2>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/battery-storage\/reviews\/tesla-powerwall-2-review.html\">Powerwall<\/a> is an AC-coupled home battery with 13.5kWh of usable energy storage.\u00a0 The &#8220;AC coupled&#8221; part means it works with any solar system, regardless of its inverter.\u00a0 It can produce 5 kilowatts (kW) of continuous power and provide backup power with rapid changeover.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some specifications taken straight from the Australian Tesla site:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-72527\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/powerwall_specs.png\" alt=\"Tesla Powerwall specifications\" width=\"847\" height=\"740\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/powerwall_specs.png 847w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/powerwall_specs-300x262.png 300w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/powerwall_specs-768x671.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 847px) 100vw, 847px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The last point is that the warranty lasts 10 years.\u00a0 While that&#8217;s likely true for most households, it will depend on how it&#8217;s used.<\/p>\n<p>They give its depth of discharge as 100%, but I&#8217;m 100% sure that&#8217;s not 100% true.\u00a0 On the Powerwall datasheet, they give its total energy storage as 14kWh:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-72634\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/powerwall_discharge.png\" alt=\"Powerwall capacity\" width=\"664\" height=\"151\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/powerwall_discharge.png 664w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/powerwall_discharge-300x68.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With 13.5kWh of usable energy storage, it would have an actual depth of discharge of 96%.\u00a0 But because you can apparently get a little more than 13.5kWh from a new Powerwall, it&#8217;s likely to be around 97%.<\/p>\n<p>They also give its round trip efficiency as 90% (up from 88%).\u00a0 This means for every 10kWh the Powerwall is charged with, it can provide 9kWh of useable stored energy.\u00a0 That&#8217;s impressively high for an AC-coupled battery, but it&#8217;s only achieved at the beginning of its life.\u00a0 I suggest using the old 88% figure to estimate lifetime round-trip efficiency.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-72635\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/powerwall_efficiency.png\" alt=\"Powerwall round trip efficiency\" width=\"664\" height=\"125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/powerwall_efficiency.png 664w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/powerwall_efficiency-300x56.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 664px) 100vw, 664px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Warranty Length &#8212;

All fairly standard stuff.<\/p>\n<h2>No Maintenance Required<\/h2>\n<p>One thing that is <em>not<\/em> required to maintain the warranty is professional maintenance, as the installation manual says none is required.\u00a0 But it does say the owner must keep it clean and ensure its vents are free of obstruction.\u00a0 In Australia, that will mostly mean keeping spider webs off it.\u00a0 So pretty much a full-time job in Queensland.<\/p>\n<h2>No Compensation if the Battery Breaks<\/h2>\n<p>The warranty says that, &#8220;to the greatest extent permitted by law&#8221;, Tesla won&#8217;t be liable for anything.\u00a0 This means no compensation for not being able to use your Powerwall if it breaks down.\u00a0 But you <em>are<\/em> still protected by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accc.gov.au\/consumers\/buying-products-and-services\/consumer-rights-and-guarantees\">Australian Consumer Guarantees<\/a> that say you can claim for reasonable losses that result from a faulty product.<\/p>\n<h2>You Can Transfer the Warranty<\/h2>\n<p>If you sell your home, the Powerwall warranty can be transferred to new owners. However, because the warranty is void if the Powerwall is removed from its original installation location, it can&#8217;t be uninstalled and moved or sold and retain its warranty.<\/p>\n<h2>You Are Protected By Consumer Guarantees<\/h2>\n<p>This article is about the Powerwall&#8217;s written warranty, but in this country, you are also protected by Australian Consumer Guarantees that should provide a higher level of protection than any battery warranty I&#8217;ve seen.\u00a0 I&#8217;m not a lawyer, so this is just my personal opinion and not a professional one.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Tesla can be slow when it comes to honouring these guarantees, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/tesla-australian-consumer-law\/\">this article on a defective Tesla car part<\/a> demonstrates.\u00a0 Still, at least you have the option to claim under Australian Consumer Guarantees if needed.<\/p>\n<p>If they continue to drag their feet, feel free to tell us so we can write about it if Tesla appears to be in the wrong.<\/p>\n<h2>Overall, It&#8217;s A (Relatively) Decent Warranty<\/h2>\n<p>All things considered, the Powerwall warranty is pretty good.\u00a0 It covers components and will last a full 10 years (for most households). And while Tesla has sometimes been slow meeting its obligations under Australian Consumer Law regarding cars, they <em>seem<\/em> to be better with Powerwalls.<\/p>\n<p>My main concerns are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tesla might choose to &#8220;refund you the market price of an equivalent product at the time of the warranty claim&#8221;, and it&#8217;s possible this could only cover a portion of what you paid.<\/li>\n<li>I think Tesla could potentially go bankrupt, causing warranty support to disappear.\u00a0 Call me paranoid, but apparently this is something Elon Musk and I <a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2022\/06\/23\/cars\/elon-musk-tesla-losses-bankruptcy-threat\/index.html\">see eye to eye on<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On the plus side, the Tesla Powerwall is one of the most reliable battery systems out there.\u00a0 So if you get one &#8212; fingers crossed &#8212; you may not have any problems for over 10 years anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Tesla Powerwall is by far the most famous home battery on the market.\u00a0 The major drawback is that they don&#8217;t come cheap.
