At least that's how it should work w/o solar

i don't see how that can happen. a typical home burns through 16KwH/day. that's more than double what the power wall holds. + to recharge the batteries from fully drained would take several hours. don't forget to calculate in a 20% loss of energy due to the inverter converting 12volts to 110v.
i want this to work, and the math will eventually sort itself out but it doesn't make sense at this time due to battery technology being a joke, solar panels lack of efficiency- consequently requiring rows and rows of panels, and the cost.
