Actual performance data from North Carolina installations

The Johnson Family - Matthews, NC

"When the power went out at 11 PM on Friday, our Powerwall kicked in instantly. We didn't even know the grid was down until our neighbor texted asking if we had power. For three days, we lived normally while the rest of the neighborhood was in the dark. Our kids could do homework, we could work from home, and we never lost food in the fridge. David was honest about what we needed—we originally wanted solar too, but he showed us the math didn't work with our tree coverage. Best $7,000 we ever spent."

— Sarah Johnson, Matthews NC
