the other thing about batteries is that a base Model 3 has >4X the capacity of a Powerwall and statistically spends most of its life parked...seems kinda silly not to just use the very expensive battery with 4 wheels when you're (almost always) not driving it. ;)
Also good for Barefoot running are the TSLA shoes sold on Amazon (seem to be similar to Merell Gloves (not the five fingers) Cost about $30 a pair and last a long time.
I'm getting really into EV's and solar lately. We placed a deposit on an ID.4 a few weeks ago - no second deposit or "official order" yet as it seems they are behind like everyone else. But we got the ball rolling.
Also, on the grid and renewables, have you heard about the problem of inertia on grids? Apparently all the spinning turbines of days of old kept the frequencies aligned (hertz) but with renewables it's a problem. So much so that engineers are not putting in giant flywheels to maintain grid stability. Who knew!

Here's the article from a few months ago: https://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/green-power-needs-more-than-just-solar-panels-and-wind-turbines/21809104
volaris is a beast within a beast. proof of the decentralized org in my opinion. thanks for the insights and thoughts!
