Product Information

Vehicle to grid benefits can be recognized much more efficiently when EV deployment is at scale rather than in the early adopter phase. At the same time, any discussion regarding the capabilities of EV related technologies must recognize as a first principle that customer experience and willingness for participation is key. There certainly may be an opportunity for future projects and programs that focus on advanced technological integration, such as the eventual aggregation of EVs in the future to provide grid services in wholesale markets. In any setting, it is important to remember that EVs are modes of transportation first and foremost for customers. There is also an opportunity to evaluate stationary storage assets first to provide similar grid services capabilities from a wholesale electricity market perspective. Electrek has learned that Tesla has quietly made Model 3, and likely Model Y, ready for bidirectional charging, which should enable some game-changing features in the near future. Tesla and Bidirectional Charging

The layout of the three (3) EVANNEX Chrome Delete Vinyl Sheets can be found in Figure 2 of our installation instructions (see the "Installation" tab).To complement this, the bidirectional design is replicated 3 times across the same PCB on the Model 3 charger. Another example of redundant design that assures a working process even if one of the circuits fails. Additionally, it is 3 phase design, so it can be used worldwide. Electrek has learned that Tesla has already prepared its onboard vehicle charger for bidirectional charging. Tesla owners would still have the option to opt in or out of the program, and they would also likely control when the electric utilities can access the energy in their vehicles.

We've developed detailed step-by-step written instructions for our Chrome Delete Vinyl Kit and a set of detailed installation videos (see "Installation" tab). When used in combination, these video and written instructions will give you comprehensive installation guidance. At the time, Straubel estimated that Tesla would hit a million cars in 2019, and he wasn’t too far off, since Tesla produced its 1 millionth electric car in March 2020.Straubel noted in a presentation in 2015 that once Tesla’s fleet reaches 1 million vehicles, it would have a significant controllable load capacity: Each vinyl kit component fits the surface curvature and perimeter shape for which it was designed and fabricated. However, alignment varies with each installation and there may be tiny variances in fit. In general, these variances will be a half-millimeter or less. For most owners, any variance which might occur will not be noticeable. The area that's most prone to peel is on the mirror lowers because of the odd shape (2D wrap on 3D surface). The kit comes with everything you need, except a heating source. We recommend using a heat gun or even a hairdryer if needed. Do I need any experience? We provide the fill-in patch because alignment mistakes can happen. If a tiny sliver of chrome is visible on an otherwise excellent install, it's often easier to cut and apply a small 'fill-in patch' than it is to reinstall an entire chrome piece. If you follow our instructions and proceed with care, it's unlikely you'll need to do a patch. We provide the extra vinyl as a courtesy just in case.

The tools typically needed are squeegees for smoothing and finishing (included); a retractable utility knife with a 9mm wide blade (included); a spray bottle (not included) containing a water/alcohol mix to ensure proper cleaning and surface preparation (critically important); a hair drier (not included) to help remove any wrinkles and make the vinyl more pliable; and sharp scissors (not included). You can use a heat gun or a hairdryer but you want to use a heat gun whenever you need to stretch or conform around awkward areas. When using heat, don’t stay in one area. Keep your gun moving and roughly 6 inches away. Does it come with everything I need to install?Not at all, but it does require care. The surface should be cleaned with a 60% water/40% isopropyl alcohol mix applied using a spray bottle, and then wiped away using a lint-free cloth or paper towel. The objective is to remove all dust, dirt, and greasy residue before vinyl installation commences. As Straubel previously pointed out, with a million vehicles on the road, Tesla’s fleet has a theoretical 10GW demand offsetting capacity, which is extremely valuable to electric utilities. With the owners’ permission, Tesla could offer electric utilities the ability to access power from the vehicles on the network in other to offset electricity demand during peak hours. The advent of electric vehicles is expected to increase the demand for electricity, but electric cars can also offer some advantages by controlling the power load. Do I have the time required to properly install the Chrome Delete Vinyl Kit, recognizing the typical times for an install on one side of the Model 3 could be between 2 and 3 hours?

Both CEO Elon Musk and cofounder and former CTO JB Straubel have expressed concerns about enabling bidirectional charging in Tesla vehicles due to the potential of accelerated battery degradation and also the moderate value with a relatively small fleet.One of the most interesting features of Tesla’s implementation of bidirectional charging is that they don’t require an inverter outside the vehicle, like the Wallbox Quasar used on the Nissan Leaf. Yes. We’ve designed and custom-cut vinyl pieces for every OEM trim element. In some cases (e.g. the mirror housings), chrome delete requires the application of multiple pieces, each of which is custom-cut to cover all of the chrome. We provide two (2) copies of each piece in case you make an installation error and need a spare.
