Four tools to help you plan before you call. Get detailed cost ranges for EV charger installation and panel upgrades, estimate your panel’s available capacity, and size a Powerwall backup system — all with numbers from real Los Angeles jobs and official NEC and Tesla specs.
Each tool runs entirely in your browser — no account, no data collected. Cost ranges come from real Los Angeles jobs LED Guys has completed. Planning calculators use NEC 220 load standards and official Tesla datasheets.
Enter your appliances and square footage to see how much of your panel’s 200A capacity is currently in use. The tool applies NEC Article 220 demand factors and shows exactly how much headroom remains — and whether your panel supports adding a Level 2 EV charger without an upgrade.
Select which circuits to keep running during an outage, set your target runtime in hours, and add your solar system size. The tool returns the number of Powerwall 3 or Powerwall 2 units needed to meet three simultaneous limits: stored energy (kWh), continuous real power (kW), and motor-starting surge.
Enter your conduit run distance, panel size, charger amperage, and hardware choice. The estimator applies the LADWP Charge Up LA! rebate automatically and shows your real out-of-pocket range — not a national average.
Select your home type, existing panel, target amperage, and any add-ons — AFCI, GFCI, surge protection, or EV service. The estimator returns a full cost range including the LADBS permit and LADWP disconnect window.
These tools are designed to get you to a real number before you call — so the conversation with Jorge starts with specifics, not guesswork.
Select your appliances or circuits, set your parameters, and get an output in under two minutes. No account required. Results display instantly in your browser.
Save the output — total amps, number of Powerwalls, circuit list. This becomes the starting point for the site assessment, not something Jorge has to re-derive from scratch.
Call or text (818) 588-7819 with what you found. Jorge will verify against your actual panel and service, confirm the scope, and give you a real estimate based on your specific installation.
