So, at one point we wanted Tesla cars, powerwalls, and tiles. All of that went right out the window. So two cars and full solar setups for three houses...poof. Unfortunately we still have Starlink due to work requirements, but as soon as we don't need it, it is going right back out.
The company who installed our solar array had a massive year on battery backups starting the day they secured an alternative to the powerwall. Our coordinator called personally because our file had a note that said "will install battery bank as soon as it won't benefit musk" and we got in before the backordering started.
