Hazard:

The lithium-ion battery cells in certain Powerwall 2 systems can cause the unit to stop functioning during normal use, which can result in overheating and, in some cases, smoke or flame and can cause death or serious injury due to fire and burn hazards.

Remedy: Replace

Recall Date: November 13, 2025

Units: About 10,500

Tesla Powerwall products (including Powerwall 3) have a massive failure rate. Seems like 10% over lifetime. Shoddy technology compared to the leading competitors, especially the inverter. They should go back to white labeling cheap Delta inverters.

Tesla down 7%, P/E still at 275, as opposed to 9 for companies that produce working vehicles like Mercedes Benz.

So, what does the market know that we don’t?
ASalazarMX•54m ago
Dude, we are the market, and we don't know why Musk deserves a trillion dollars out of Tesla. You must mean insiders.

Hey come on they’re making robotaxi eventually! Surely that’s worth 275!!!

If MB is feeling particularly confident maybe they can out manœuvre the market like Wiedeking did.

But they will have 1 million robotaxis on the road by year end...err...1 million optimus robots working in factories by year end 2026!

They will start loosing money this quarter. That way it fixes the high P/E aspect of things.

Now they will be a 'pure play' in Robotics & AI !

I love this scene from Silicon Valley:

This show was really ahead of its time. "If you show revenue people will ask how much and it will never be enough" /s Imaginary trillions of revenues from Optimus are definitely much more appealing.

Its honestly baffling to me that people trust their lives to Tesla autopilot. The company has a record track of making products that aren't well tested.
johnisgood•53m ago
I have been hearing so much about Tesla and fire in the same sentence... Maybe someone more knowledgeable and experienced can chime in about it.
ActorNightly•20m ago
Knowing what I know about Space X, basically its shortcuts after shortcuts. My guess is that the controller firmware is cobbled together from parts, and there is some condition that causes failure to restrict output current.

However unlike Space X where they do test launches, Tesla most likely just pushes products out to public and lets the public beta test them.

10,500 units that "Tesla has remotely discharged (or removed energy from the battery of) affected Powerwall 2 systems that are online to prevent overheating until the replacement is installed. "

I bet all contracts are conveniently missing the word "guaranteed"

Im of course biased but why does nano banana trump abc ccc talk
