Somebody needs to design a kit to hook a Tesla vehicle battery up to solar panels like their Powerwall does. I’m sure there are plenty of people with solar panels out there that would love to add/expand battery backup at a reasonable price.
I think you should talk to ev car converters, those companies often use Tesla parts due to their availability and could probably tell you if you need the computer. My guess would honestly be no
Well you must have more money than you need. Perhaps you’re one of these rich people we’re all excited to eat.
If someone gave any rational person a free car (or in fact paid them to take it), they’d take the car and either drive it, resell it or give it to someone else. These are basically the only non crazy options. There aren’t many people who look at $20,000 and say “nah… let’s burn it”.
I know it was hyperbole, but it was still a ridiculous statement. Unless it wasn’t hyperbole, but then that could only make it dishonest.
If you paid me to take one, I would.
Then I would set it on fire.
Sell it for parts. The EV motors are useful and the battery pack is still relevant. The rest can burn though.

I have about 30kwh worth of battery storage and I’ve been trying to figure out how to use a used EV battery to expand it.
I think I’d need the car’s computer to act as the charge controller but I’m not a hundred percent sure.

Cool I’ll look into that!
Thanks for the idea.
Nope, fire. It would be useful as firefighter practice.
You wouldn’t need to. It would do it all by itself ¯\(ツ)/¯

Donate them to Ukraine. They can do better than fire
