Saya bangga dgn anak melayu mcm cik farhan yang berjaya ada rumah besar + pasang solar panel + 2 EV car. You live the dream. I am really inspire by you❤
Bnyk je melayu berjaya ikut circle kita je
Apa yg kampung sgt tu. Masih tinggal dlm tahun 80an ke
PV + EV combo is a no brainer for Malaysia. Your typical commute is well within the range of any EV and you're not polluting the air while stuck in jams. You do need more L3 charging for inter-state travel.
Very nicely setup and thanks for sharing! Indeed i am inspired! 😊
Thanks for sharing... I also installed solar panel+ Lgchem battery pack+ tesla 22kw wallbox at my house... And you know what?.. my electricity bill is minus- because of energy transfer back to national grid when not using it... It is so convenient... Government incentive on wall box seems to pay off... Not only can run your house but everyone house as well
Do you mean, government is buying back and give us cash if we have extra energy to transfer back?
may i know the brand of the solar panel installation, thinking of getting one :)
How much does it cost
how can we get a quote for LG Chem ESS in Malaysia? Don't seem to able to find any contact points.
Cool. You interviewed the right person. Hopefully we can learn something.
Thanks for sharing the setup its great to see what you'd have to go by going full electric!
Thanks for the informative sharing, just what I'm looking for. Thank you Daren and boss Farhan.
Very insightful video, thanks Darren and Farhan 👍👍
Informative and humble video. Thanks fr Singapore
Excellent coverage on EV charging and RE system. Most informative with actual case study.
Very insightful! Thank you Daren and especially to Farhan for sharing his own experience. Most importantly, the financial side of adopting EV.
Hebat Tuan! Good information. Kita perlu lebih banyak maklumat selain kenderaan EV itu sendiri.
Thank you Daren n Farhan. 👍👍🙏🙏
been searching these sorts of videos. it's helpful. thx
Happy to hear that!
Cool! I do hope to have a similar setup in the future. 😊
Thank for sharing this nugget of wisdom@ Daren & Farhan. I'm still doing some study on Tesla car.
All the best, ck!
Tq Darren & Farhan. Spot on Q&As
Thanks Effy!
Thanks for the explanation 😊
This is an excellent sharing.
Great video from New Zealand 🇳🇿 ❤
My Singaporean relative already bought a house in Malaysia and will install this wall charger soon
Great video Darren sending love ❤️ from Australia ❤️ 🇦🇺
12.5kWp is quite a big system! Well done.
Agree. It’s quite big but prospective house owners can always start small and add more panels down the line as the economics improve.
Very educated and knowledgeable owner .
Agree! Farhan has been a great advocate for EV adoption in Malaysia.
Thank you for sharing
Amazing… I did the similar setup too for my tesla charger.
My next investment will be solar panel too 🎉
Nice! ☀️
EV is a complete green tech when it's combine with solar
Good reference
in the US, they allow non-tesla cars to charge using tesla superchargers
but these superchargers are equipped with adaptors on the head
Should also take into consideration car maintenance short and long term wise
Rasa lebih bersemangat utk memiliki sebuah tesla EV!
BETOL2 GUNA NEW TEKNOLOGI EV AND SOLAR..TERBAIK BANG
Amazingly. Good knowledge. I dreamed towards that when I had sufficient budget ❤😊
💪🏻
Very good information. Doing the same for my house
Have been getting multiple quotes from solar panel suppliers but none are able to supply Fronius inverter like the one Farhan had. Mind to share which supplier is able to install Fronius inverter in Klang valley? Thanks!
Great info Bro ! How is it going so far ?
still adapting mind to how many chargers wire needed in current life..here go another wire needed..
wow, EV6, what a beau
EVs are the future, imagine that you dont have to service your car anymore. of course there are some level of maintenance that is still need to consider like wiring, electrical components and batteries but those are a rare
really curious to know what is that model 3 wrap. gorgeous
Unfortunately, the housing grid & sub-stations in Malaysia is not designed to supply 22kW of electricity per household. Just imagine if 20% of the households served by the same sub-station draws 22kW at night, you can expect power tripping every single day
tnb foresee this and its a part of the projection / plans.
This is great info, anyone knows any good solar panel installation companies in the klang valley?
How about the maintenance of the solar panels? Trying to figure out the math here...
Would you mind share the details who can get the tesla 22kw wallbox , I want to install it
What if raining? It seem like your charging spot at the most outer side of your house. For sure the rain will hit your charging spot while charging.
i do wish same setting as your house during renovation,but problem is not all the wiring man will
do the ev charging installation,even if they do it, still need to consider the potential of catching fire if charging overnight.(😢)
Hey Kelvin. Farhan's home installed a surge protector for additional safety. There hasn't been any major safety issues for Tesla Wall Connectors globally since it was publicly released more than a decade ago in 2012.
Hi Daren, the setup with additional cable with CEE3 socket, can it charge 2 cars simultaneously using only one wall charger?
looking at the way you park your car, if its raining, can you still charge it if rain water is raining over the charging port?
If solar power high efficiency must be worth it. Just wondering, the solar under tnb? Maintenance cost yearly?
hi may i know if i have a model 3 tesla in my house i build that tesla wall charging ev how much is the eletric bill if i night time charge until morning.
may i know the brand of the solar panel installation, thinking of getting one :)
love malay english. clear and on point.
farhan ada 2 bijik EV... ramai orang malaysia nie kaya raya .. senang jumpa EV car sekarang kat mana2
Biasa aja lol
@@gilangsaputra6333 indon penyakit hati
extra RM300 per mth in electricity bill for 2 EVs much more cheaper than petrol usage
Is it ppssible to charge with solar genarator
One day I would have my own EV car and my target is BYD ATTO 3 for daily use...2nd car/spare car will be ICE engine, which was my current car, Proton Saga 4AT
EV's are touted as non polluting...but people forget the environmental damage done producing batteries for EV's...n plz remember studies have shown EV's involved in accidents are prone to electrical fires due to the batteries😊😊😊
malaysia uses mainly natural gas for Electricity production.
Stats hv shown that ICE cars burst into fire more. Only that EV are new, a fire is news. Granted fires is a real risk but batteries tech is improving by leaps n bounds. Just look at BYD blade battery...the future is here guys...adopt it early n njoy the acceleration n driver's pleasure....
.....the E and Y is complete. Working on the S and X...😊
Thanks for sharing. Would like to ask how much consumption (amps) requires for wiring connection (from DB) to Tesla gen 3 connector? Thanks
Daren please help here thanks
This content is superb! As I am rebuilding my house now I am going to setup the same. 100Amp 3 phase with solar panel. Any recommended solar system? I would order same tesla charger
I suggest that you get a dual glass bifacial solar panel 400-500w N-type or TopCon Mono Half-Cut Perc 182mm 16BB 108 Cells that the module efficiency-m(%) is >22.0% (it only cost +-RM500-600 ea.) this solar panel is most expensive in terms of cash flow because normally a grade-B panel which is a Monofacial panel (that only absorbs sunlight on 1 surface rather than bifacial; absorbs sunlight on both sides.
A grade-B Monofacial panels cost around RM450-500 it generates lesser than Topcon cells by only 330w output generated out of a 450w panels for instance.
The difference will be noticeable from a power system of 12.5kWh once it generates 25-30% more it will be increased to 16.25kWh
Setup : put the solar panel on ground fix or flat roof placement that is 3ft above the ground and 3 inch gap side by side this will increase the output efficiency by 25% , say a 450w panels you will get 480-530w depending on the forecast; solar panel placement syncing with sun orientation whereas the energy-heat conversion loss factor is applied.
A solar-generated power system sized of 12.5kWh like Mr. Farhan would be adequate it depends on how much you're really willing to put money on to invest.
disclaimer*: the numbers , value amounting calculated is only a rough estimation but it won't get far off.
further tips* A Monocrystalline Solar Panels (dark or black colored) is most suitable & high performance panels than Polycrystalline Solar Panels (blue or white colored)
How much price spend for 1km travelling?
ok What if your car stalled in the middle of the road
Hi Darren, is it possible to ask Farhan what is the wire size of the wiring to the Tesla Gen3 Wall Connector. I presume he is running 3 phase (meaning 4 wires + earth). Thanks a million.
Hey Ernie! Checked with him. He oversized the wire to 10mm. But 6mm is enough for 32 Amp. All the best for your home charger installation!
Much obliged Daren.
Daren I’m away overseas 6 months a year - I want to own a EV but am worried about the batteries efficiency if not being charged over long periods
Tesla recommends keeping your car plugged in to a charger if you're away for long periods of time. You can also consider letting family and close friends use it. You can control car access using the Tesla app.
Cool brother 👍..hope your car.your house and you don't caught on 🔥
Goverment.. its time to increase the electrik charge.... 😊
What does this guy work as... To have 2 EVs
yang melabor ke indonesia
But wouldnt savings incur from petrol increases your house electricity tariff instead. Previously 1k was charged on your credit card to fill petrol , now rm600 is added to your house electricity which increases its tariff and end up costing you more. Someone please do the math for me.
what happen when its raining? do we need to unplug the charger or it is waterproof?
Tesla charge ports are water resistant and it's okay to charge under light rain. However, it's best to minimize water contact as much as possible.
does tesla comes with wireless phone charger inside..?..eventhough it charge the car using wire..
Yes, Teslas have 2 wireless phone chargers!
Does Farhan’s house installed Three-Phase wiring home? I do intend to install Three-Phase wiring to install home charger.
Yes, Farhan’s home has 3-phase wiring installed.
How long does a home solar system battery last? And what's the cost for changing a new one?
The solar system has a 25 year lifetime for the solar panel while the inverter can last between 10-15 years depending on make.
Solar panel payback period is short only when your electric consumption is very high. For normal to low consumption, it could take 10-15 or more years.
If you size your solar system to your usage, it should have a similar payback period.
How about charging the car with our usual the 3 pin connector? Could save money from buying a wall charger just plug in everyday come back from work lets say 80% charge to 100% charge everyday
It's a lot slower and sometimes you want faster AC charging especially with multiple EVs in your household, or if you're coming back from a long road trip. Most people use the 3 pin connector for emergencies during road trips.
If using 3 pin connector, how long would it takes from 80% to 💯% Darren
Can a Tesla be charged at home from a non Tesla home charger, for instance, wallbox?
You can charge Tesla from anything (almost anything you still can't use Rivian superchargers)
@@cerverg thanks man
Whats the lifetime of the Wall Unit?
I've met owners who used theirs for 5 years and still going strong. Should be able to last up to 10 years with good upkeep.
not all landed houses in Malaysia electricity powered by 3-phase AC? some are 1-phase AC really?
Correct!
Single phase can install 22k charger ?
As he said in the video, you can install it but you'll only get 7kW max power on a single phase
30km on a 20A plug/wire is more than enuff. 300k a night out of 424k on M3..bagus
this is old video? because TNB don't payback anymore even you export power to the grid
Yes, this video was filmed in Dec 2022.
how much is he saving driving ev than ice car...thought msia petrol is relatively cheap already
He’s saving 40% vs petrol, even with the high petrol subsidies in Malaysia.
I drove an average of 3-4k milage a month. Average fuel was Rm 1000
I’m as a Malaysian, petrol budget is already too high for me.
Depending on how far you drive per year ( 20k to 30k km/year) as well as your ICE car's fuel efficiency , you can save between Rm 1k to Rm 2k a year using EV. Which means getting back the cost of your Home EV charger investment within 3-5 years.
I drove about 42k km in 2022. My electricity bill for this is about Rm 3,400. I would have spent close to 9000 if it was for similar distance taking and ICE car
tesla nanti banyak tersa ingii di 3 negara korea japan cina
the electrical will be as high as the mountain!
But Malaysia is a small market to Tesla......very small indeed.
it is too early to say that. now tesla is selling their car in malaysia directly and the price is cheaper..many will buy them and next year there will be more on road
This guy work in oil and gas...most likely
More costly need installation, use more energy as such, need to wait for charging. Mileage can not cover long destinations and loss of time, whereby Petrol just pumped full and moved on. From Singapore to Malacca, 2hr 30min 280km. Can Tesla cover that mileage? Without changing.
What are single phase and 2 phase thingy ? Lol
If you mean what is the difference between 1-phase and 3-phase (not 2), it is the two different type of electrical supply wiring methods available. For low electrical consumption homes (like single storey terrace house), 1-phase is sufficient. But if you have a bungalow and multiple aircons, EV chargers etc etc, better to have 3-phase wiring so the electrical supply capacity is more (and safer). You can upgrade a 1-phase installation to a 3-phase one with application to TNB (in Malaysia) and a qualified electrician to do the wiring and upgrading of DB (distribution board) and a whole bunch of other stuff that needs to be done.
13:19 Correction. Under NEM, you don't make money because TNB doesn't buy our generated power. They use it to offset our consumption.
The grid is simply acting as a battery that stores the power to no more than 12 months. Beyond that, the power is lost.
Thanks for the insight!
U forgot how petrol smell bro? It smells like unlimited subsidy. 😅
😂
If Malaysians can afford the prices of solar panel and wall connector, myvi will out of the market to face BYD seagull...
Tesla just depre 30%.. no need APs grey imports!!
just in case, I've asked elon musk to set up a supercharger in my house
😂
I m not Malaysia I design 1.2 kw 1200w wire less charging my byd atto 3 this device can charge 500w to 1200w up to 8 hours. Find nearby power source divice connection to car plug open soler panal onthe car actually it's show I use soler to charge car. Then any power line not more than 5 m I drive my car almost 5000 km. I zero payment. I find this project form dorkkweb I don't sell or I don't want to promote becouse of my life danger.
it seem like don't save money at all compare to engine car, especially i believe you have many deprecation loss for the car
Look at in totality i.e. you are using greener energy. However, like someone else said in the comments elsewhere, there are still some negative environment impacts associated with EV (use of rare earth elements involving destructive and polluting mining methods) battery, disposal/recycling when end-of-life etc. Hydrogen cell technology is touted as the better option but its still some ways to go before being ready for prime-time.
BYD is better than both of these ev
no agree
Very hard to understand the English 😂
Everyone EV EV EV does anyone speak the truth? Initial buying the car already not cheap. Yes can save a bit of money if compared to petrol, How about the replacement of the battery COST? why every one review EV car afraid to mention. Don't hide the fact and tell the truth. After 1 or 2 year the battery will degrade and did not hold the charge like new battery so the mileage will reduce too, the additional frequent charging also cost extra money. I am hybrid car user and i know the pain.
Do not charge the car inside the garage!!!
Sorry to say... Trying to save the earth by using EVs is BS. I understand the science behind making an EV, ICE car, and solar panel.
But I do like the torque from an EV, cheaper mileage and the overall package of a Tesla.
EV ni mengarut sebenarnya. Looks good on paper jaa.
Kos nak pasang charger tu saja dah 4,5 ribu. Belum harga kereta lagi. Sama macam nak pasang solar, bukannya murah.
Memang jimat tak pakai minyak, tapi tak jimat pengunaan elektrik dan duit kau pun.
Konon2 nak membantu alam sekitar, tapi lithium ion battery tu ingat boleh petik cam buah saja kaa?
