Most likely getting 45 tomorrow, advice?

I know close to nothing about this car, but it seems to have rock solid reliability compared to almost all other EVs and true 300+ mile range. What would you say are some functions not immediately obvious? Do you need to have a specific adapter or can I use my lucid ccs to NACS adapter for Tesla superchargers? What are some frustrating things that may be helpful to know, or anything in general, as I pick it up? Thanks so much in advance!

Finally, getting this non-export system done correctly

My saga begins years ago, when I contracted with project solar. 16 months of headaches later, including having to hire an electrician to wire in consumption CTs that the installers said “would not fit” over my main panel lugs, and I had a working pv and backup battery system. Nem 2.0 in CA for reference.

Fast forward a few years, and our home usage doubled with the EV and more laundry/AC usage from having toddlers.

I contracted with a company to do the system shown in the image so I could keep my original system on nem2.0, and they did not do that. They combined the new system with the old one and the same combiner. Essentially violating my nem2.0 agreement.

Months and many lawyer emails later, and we “resolved” our misunderstanding. I vetted a new company, had them go over with me in detail that they understood the diagram above, and are starting the install. I have no clue how having two site IDs will work, or what powers what during the various battery modes. Have heard conflicting info from Enphase engineers and even the install company! The ai part of enlighten contradicts itself, too. Will keep anyone that’s interested posted.

Anyone else do this non-export install?

Is anyone getting good Air deals?

When I leased my Air Pure a few years back it was like $650 a month with minimal due at signing. Now for the same $2,500 DAS, an 80k pure 36mth/10k is $1,121, even with Loyalty!! Wtf? Is anyone actually taking these deals?

Considering iX, range help

I’m considering leasing either a demo 2025 50 or 2026 45 from our local dealer. Neither have the most efficient wheels, I believe they are 21” or 22”. It seems like no new or used one has the 20” high efficiency wheels that I can find, if I’m getting that right? Has anyone else run into this? With my last EV (Air) it was pretty clear the range hit you’d take from 19” -> 20” -> 21”, so any guidance on range or difficulty finding the 20” wheels would help, as my google searches haven’t turned up anything useful
