While EVs aren't perfect, they are better in enough ways to make them my personal preference for personal locomotion.

@SW_Help I think it was 7

@SW_Help I'm on the 11:05 train from winnersh triangle to reading. There is some extreme squeaking in the "quiet" coach. Just FYI

@seeedstudio *out buildings

@seeedstudio This would be great for home assistant ESPHome devices that are in our buildings that dont have WiFi coverage!

@graeme_cobb I've found with my Tesla I am very much beating it in the summer, bit less in the winter.

My works Kia, never hit it. Supposed to be 280miles, at best I get 240 and normally between 200-220 in summer and about 180 winter. Glad it is end of lease in a few months!

@MikeLaw306 @VideoCardz While I wouldn't had worded it that way 😆, you made me finally realise a part of why I find him so creepy 😳

@cnxsoft I look forward to their successful Kickstarter, and when I can buy one.

Been stung to many time with crowdfunding, so if it becomes a product I can just buy I'm definitely down!

[smartroad78(TICK) @smartroad78]

@KlausD66178 @Prusa3D Okay

[smartroad78(TICK) @smartroad78]

@awlnx @electricfelix And the BMW, even after setting it all up how it wants, still just decided to charge at peak rate anyway for an indeterminate time 🫣😅

[smartroad78(TICK) @smartroad78]

@awlnx @electricfelix It does make it way to complicated. Like my partner wanted to charge to 50% but isn't going anywhere, so no departure time needed but have to set one.

My other two cars are set start/end time and the car will charge as much as it can in that time then stop 😅

[smartroad78(TICK) @smartroad78]

@KlausD66178 @Prusa3D Why do you have to be rude? I understand the benefits, but also the downsides if, for example, your internet goes down. If local it doesn't have to interrupt work flow.

[smartroad78(TICK) @smartroad78]

How is it, even with larger bays for charging a car, people STILL park right up against the line of the next bay 🙄

[smartroad78(TICK) @smartroad78]

@awlnx @electricfelix Same here, I have home assistant now running the show 😂

[smartroad78(TICK) @smartroad78]

@electricfelix @awlnx Yes, unlike my Tesla or works Kia Niro, you just set a charge time and off it goes. The i4? Set a charge time, HAVE to set a departure time, the it will charge for 2 minutes, unless very low then will charge until about 12-15% regardless of schedule. It is really awful!

@memes_eV @PaulNissanEV Looks like an older car as well
