It seems Tesla retains cloud control of the batteries it sells, at least in Australia, but not in the USA.
Australian politicians have a lot to answer for. Arguing about nuclear power, and gas-led recovery, when they should have just focused on making renewables more available and better regulated.
Spending $15k on a Tesla battery that you can’t control without cloud connectivity seems like a really bad idea. Especially when it’s just because of a geo-lock.
