Charging in the rain overnight ready for the next day

[Kerry Walker @kerrybwalker]

I had to explain to neighbours that charging the car every couple of days draws no more power than running the clothes dryer and dishwasher for the same amount of time. Scheduled charging lets me do it early in the morning, off peak. Ironically I schedule the dishwasher and clothes dryer to run at peak solar production ☺️

First time this evening letting FSD navigate through Elwood, St Kilda, Albert Park and Southbank. It was an adventure. It would be the most disengagements I have had in 15km, counted six. Two for wrong lane at roundabouts, three for bad navigation, one where I didn’t like the indicator going for a left turn while in the right lane. Turned out the car was right, it technically was a left followed by an immediate right. It did however deal with raised tram stops, roundabouts with tram lines through the middle, pedestrians amd wayward driving by Mercedes, BMW and Audi drivers 😁

@Earth2075 Congrats mate

@spacetime_btc Ahhh!!!! I do know what you mean, blow on the go peddle and it gets all frisky 🤭

One setting I’ve never used on the 3 …. Chill ….

Running out of things to try, so far beef and chicken skewers, salmon and bananas 😂

Trying out the new Hibachi Grill, looks like a bit of fun to cook with.

@ctrlaltrefuel Not a necessity, but almost all my trips are done in heavy traffic, it does make those 6 days a week far more tolerable 😊

[Kerry Walker @kerrybwalker]

FSD V13 DU doing some things well, somethings not so well. Handles a scooter well, needs PoE to safely turn on to a main road. Tried to make a left turn from the middle lane and needed help, does an awesome lane split. This is why V14 is becoming necessary.

@XHabib No, just looks boring, just like every other boring SUV for the past 20 years 🤦

[Kerry Walker @kerrybwalker]

Left hand turns are my biggest intervention point by far.

@TechOperator Rode past a nice looking butt on a 5am training ride. Didn’t know who she was at the time, turned out we were married 9 months later

@13arm13arm Our two cars must have been talking to each other and gone ‘let’s mess with our supervisors’

[Kerry Walker @kerrybwalker]

I’d love to see that! I know from 3rd party tracking that FSD is roughly 18% more efficient than I am. On a recent road trip, FSD ran 22% more efficient than I did. That’s a lot of extra miles of range. I compared charging times on the same trip, FSD saved 9 minutes of charging, 27 down to 18, same two stops. Weather was similar.

@TechOperator A check engine light service???

[Kerry Walker @kerrybwalker]

@techAU I read that to quickly and thought you were about to say 102 days since drink 😂

[Kerry Walker @kerrybwalker]

@spacetime_btc @RobGrieves Probably still figuring out how to get it to drive on the wrong side of the road 😂

[Kerry Walker @kerrybwalker]

@spacetime_btc @elonmusk Seconded.

[Kerry Walker @kerrybwalker]

@13arm13arm That sounds like the perfect plan!
