    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    correct does not need the blobs although a front camera be nice instead of mostly reversing into car spots.. I normally do not look at the screen too much in reverse, mostly done with side mirrors. Same as the blindspot on the screen be a lot better a flashing icon in mirror like other cars...

    LFP battery - how often is too often to charge?

    @Max Spaghetti I agree not sure I take it all the way to 0% :) I did a couple low 10's to 100 in a row as a few days of long trips in the M3 Then did a 10% to 100% in the MY both improved. Unlike friends with NMC batteries yes it moves a lot more on Scan My Tesla. I expect hover around 57-58kw...

    LFP battery - how often is too often to charge?

    I been down this rabbit hole with our LFP Teslas If you do not charge to 100% often BMS can be out with LFP's Battery itself happier not living high or low. Had Tessie since got both M3 and MY both LFP's and noticed it started dropping. Happened after I started charging only 21kw at a time(in...

    Superchargers in Australia

    With BP I never knew why service stations are not more into chargers. They make a big amount of $ from retail at the site. If you have someone sitting in car for 10-30 mins just makes sense. Especially on the major highways where they have a food court attached.

    ChargeFox EV charging Network

    I assume LaTrobe. They have a market on Sunday where one EV charger is surrounded by food trucks etc. I have seen the same MY locked in by the market a few times.

    Origin EV Power Up

    3 Phase 22kw cable even though the M3/MY can only do 11kw max as limited to 16amp on 3 phase. Also buy a better cable not the cheapest you can find. Early in the morning for maths although easiest way I remember how. Single phase does max 240*32amp = 7.68kw.. So does not care either cable be...

    Tessie I found move around a bit of late. So I have been playing with Scan my Tesla depends how you charged it change around, been as low as 57kw to around 58.7kw over the last couple of weeks. I also find as with Tessie if you put a big charge in the BMS seems to calculate better A 10%-100%...

    Supercharger - Raymond Terrace, NSW

    100% and take our Tesla hat off a few other manufactures have 50-80kw limits so spend more time charging. Captive audience. Personally I like a 30 min or so break on long drives. I like walking around small towns and using the small shops. You could see a good move get a couple of 50kw chargers...

    EV Energy plans - NSW

    Yes I do wonder if they change it in winter.. Now I am only getting 2-3kw free when the sun is out. Although it changed my charging habit from 12am-6am to 11am-2pm when home.. So the other 2-3kw be coming from the solar in the street.

    Powerwall 3 Roadmap - 3 Phase Coming!

    Yes find it interesting that battery prices seem to be going up.. not down. $15k for 13.5kw battery or $60k for a car with 60kw battery.. you do wonder why they not dropped. I prefer go LFP although PW3 with inverter silly for those with Solar and inverter already. Wonder if a PW4 come out just...

    Everything Electric Sydney (February 9-10-11, 2024)

    correct all of the overnight ones just use your own meter. So you get 8 cents or whatever the over night is. I also get the 3 hours free 11am-2pm as they dropped the Solar FIT to match 8 cents. Off topic from the show.. So was there any new models there not releases yet?
  35. D

    Everything Electric Sydney (February 9-10-11, 2024)

    With OVO unless you get a seperate meter they really cannot tell what the usage comes from. I get 8 cents if I charge or not. Also have 3 hours free 11am to 2pm. Although peak solar time so you loose your export.

    Refresh Model X & S Waiting Room - AUSTRALIA (Orders cancelled by Tesla May2023)

    Also think people forget in the US they love big trucks and roads setup for them. A basic F250/Silverado is from around US$45k to I think close to US$100k So CT pricing and size over there makes sense. Most things Tesla do are US centric.
