We digress but getting an EV 4 years ago was a fantastic decision. I had free charging from public points for around 2 years to start with.…

ok so the conclusion is, portable power stations are not a viable option for energy storage for taking advantage of cheap electricity at…

Teslas don't have V2L, and even if it did it's not practical - the garage is too far downstairs.

I have gas but it's not free, not sure how that is relevant

Nevermind it's compound interest. Yeah you're right, this is all a bit silly.

Can you please share how you calculated the 5.2% p.a. after 10 years? Initial investment of $600 yields $100 per year for 10 years = $1000,…

The portable power stations plug into standard AC wall sockets inside the unit

So OVO have confirmed that their EV off-peak rate at 6c per kwh applies to the whole residence, excluding controlled load (which I don't…

Unless I am mistaken, I think the OEM Hankooks are the ones with the "t0" designation, which are a bit more expensive at $315 each:…

How do you rate the Nexens for range and noise compared to the original Tesla tyres?

Out of curiosity, ow many kms do the Winruns last before you have to change them?
