Will they be heavy like normal solar panels or would they be light enough like a normal roof for old New England homes??
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Feb 10, 2020
Its integrated roof & solar, so should be light enough for almost any home

It will not work in northern Alberta
Need some sort of electrical heat trace to remove heavy snow
Elon Musk@elonmusk· Feb 10, 2020Please let us know what improvements we can make to any aspect of Tesla SolarGlass roof! Critical feedback is much appreciated.
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Feb 10, 2020
I think will still be better than a normal roof, but adding a heating grid to automatically remove ice & snow sounds like a good option. We have that already on car windows!

No problem. Snow and ice tend to slide off the Tesla SolarGlass due to lower surface roughness, so accumulates less than a normal roof. Even so, it’s very strong and can be walked on without breaking the glass tiles.

Sounds should note that it gets less shiny automatically due to dust & weathering. This pic is brand new.

(When) are you switching to custom alloy instead of 301 for starship?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Feb 10, 2020
Probably 6 months or so. 301 is certainly fine for orbit, but SpaceX 30X will be better.

Any plans for custom type/colored panels, for instance for terraced houses for in a lot in European countries so that the panels don't look too out of place? 😔✌🏻
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Feb 10, 2020
Yes, but we want to focus on textured black first, then move into Earth tones & convolutions

Your comment above: “Who in their right mind would buy an ICE after 2025 knowing its residual value will be zilch? Legacy auto: go EV or go BUST!” is super important for car buyers. Residual values for gas/diesel cars will plummet in coming years.

Wow! Looks like you’ve probably got all the bulkheads for SN-1 ready! How long before it’s fully stacked and vertical?

First two domes in frame are for SN2, third is SN1 thrust dome
