> Many potential Tesla solar customers (that I know of) have ended up using other solutions as Tesla simply didn’t have stock availability - it’s a novelty product line.

I order a system from Tesla on Sept 30th, it was installed Nov 3rd, and I received permission to operate on Nov 23rd.

Other quotes I received were targeting installation Jan or Feb 2021.

I believe the previous article is talking about the first generation solar shingles which Tesla never really got off the ground.

It may have taken Tesla longer to bring the solar roof to market than originally planned but it’s been available since early this year. I’ve seen several Tesla roofs in person, and they seem to be a great choice if you need a new roof and can afford it.

Maybe availability has improved now. As the child suggests it was about the Tesla shingles.

It’s the same argument as ‘they’re so busy nobody goes there anymore’ anyway.
