Elon Musk doesn’t just sell Teslas – Here’s what else you can buy from his companies
There are a few outspoken billionaires globally, but none of them come close to Tesla CEO Elon Musk. He regularly uses his Twitter profile with over 78 million followers to post outlandish ideas and is also known to lend a helping hand when needed.
He’s probably best known for his electric Tesla vehicles, but Musk has other ideas. You might be surprised at other products he is working on.
If you need an electric car, solar panels or a rocket for space travel, Musk is your best source. Here’s what else you can buy from all his companies.
Tesla Solar Roof
These solar panels aren’t your average eyesore that frequently dots suburban streets. Instead, to combat the problem of rising energy costs and unattractive panels, Solar Roof provides panels that look almost exactly like roof tiles.
It is a fully integrated system that uses the space on your roof, and it’s tough to tell from street level that your roof tiles are solar panels. Tesla claims that it has already installed solar roof tiles on more than 400,000 homes.
Tesla Powerwall
So, you have the Solar Roof tiles, but now you need to store the captured energy somewhere. Well, that is exactly what the compact home battery Powerwall does.
According to the site, “Powerwall is an integrated battery system that stores your solar energy for backup protection, so when the grid goes down your power stays on. Your system detects outages and automatically recharges with sunlight to keep your appliances running for days.”
Tesla Apparel
Need a t-shirt with a cybertruck owl on it? You can grab one from the Tesla Apparel store for $35. The online store should be your first destination for any Tesla-branded clothing. It is stacked with shirts, hoodies, socks and a variety of outerwear.
But the best product by far is the Giga Texas Belt Buckle. Selling for around $137, it’s made to celebrate the company’s newest Gigafactory. It has a prominent T-logo that sits atop the Texas Lone Star.
