20,033 kWh of sun a year from 11.2 kW — 75% powers the house and cars, the rest sells back at 5¢/kWh.

Watson's plan

Big day — about 65 kWh. The car can take 18 kWh after 10:30 AM and the Powerwall still fills up. So far you've kept $14.66 off the bill.

Demo home with one Powerwall and one Model Y, priced at 42¢/kWh. Connect your own system for real plans.

Emergency buttons for bad days

When the grid wobbles or a storm rolls in, lift a safety cover and press. Go off grid runs the house on sun and Powerwall alone. Bunker 100% turns on Tesla Storm Watch and fills the battery. One lever puts everything back.

Live weather alerts show on the console, and grid outages are detected, timed and logged automatically.

Where WhatSun fits

Tesla runs your hardware. WhatSun decides what it should do today — and only takes the wheel where you let it. Turn on automatic charging and your cars soak up spare sun on their own; leave it off and you still get a clear daily plan. No homelab, no rules to write, no second system to babysit.

And Watson stays curious. He keeps hunting for free ways to save — like swapping two cars so one charges on sun while the other commutes — then checks your real numbers a week later to prove what actually worked.

Built in California, for NEM 3.0 and time-of-use homes, by an owner running two solar arrays, three Powerwalls, and two EVs.
