Bugger, what if you broke your mirror.

It might be because Wheels & Hunter are already using all the power.:D

Katherine NT commissioned yesterday. WooHoo.

I have one from EV Chargers that works fine and gets me the full 11Kw on 3 phase. Used it again yesterday for a couple of hours at Pine Creek. But it like the UMC doesn't like temperature much above 40 degrees and will ramp down if you can't keep them and the plug shaded and cool. I carry...

Will probably become a bit of a weekly update, but Crickets - 2 weeks since the announcement, but still none of them functional, or showing in the app. Was vainly hoping we might get something before Easter but it seems not to be. Unless somebody has contacts I have not been able to get any...

Well the socks are off for the pollies photoshoot, but the charger is still offline. Contacted Power & Water and they could not provide any indication other than contacting NRMA. I contacted NRMA who initially indicated that it was operational as there were checkin's on plugshare. Pointed out...

They do not show up in the app yet and still show as coming soon on Plugshare. If you look closely at the picture the screen is blank as well. (It has been like this for the last 6 weeks). Will probably drive down to Katherine this weekend to check it.

On app on phone I seem to have lost the 3 dots and can not coax them back. I am sure they were there yesterday. Just checked also lost them on Ipad app.

🤣🤣🤣 Ordered Mar22, invoiced & vin'd Nov22 paid cash Dec22 delivered Feb23. 🤣🤣🤣 Insert "boat failed bug inspection" day after making payment and again 2 weeks later. Third time lucky. We raced forklifts while we were waiting, and still think it was worth the wait. In fact so many new experiences...

The log out & back in worked for me. Interestingly it is working currently with my UMC as we gave our wall charger away to a friend who has 3 phase. The UMC is plugged into a 5 pin 32a plug. As we no longer have the wall charger, on the display it shows as offline. Power going to the UMC is...

Got the same email, and it took me to the Powerwall order page. I filled in the details and submitted but expect no reply as I have done this many times over the last 6 years and have never received any response. BTW I have already purchased and installed 2 Powerwalls through my solar...

I gave my wall charger away to a mate who has 3 phase at home. I only have single phase so while it looked good it was a waste. The UMC now hangs on the wall next to the 5 pin 32a plug and only goes into the car if I am heading out past Adelaide River.

No need to over think it. 20,000K and it hasn't moved.

Did Darwin to Cairns and back late Nov early Dec. Darwin Perth and a couple of Alice Springs runs planned.

Was the same for me yesterday, and was driving around for a couple of hours. In fact had to initiate nearly every time and set them on may times. However this morning its like a new day, they are working very well, but having only gone 50K in intermittent showers so far, we will see how it goes.

Ipad fixed, but still bagarap on andriod since last update 19Dec.

Same since the last update powerwall/house graphic takes more more than a minute to slowly shrink on my Samsung S21 & just under a minute on my Ipad. And you have to keep the screen open, if you go to a subscreen or other and come back it is still magnified to where you left it.

Truck from Brisbane via Townsville. Only took 342 days from order to delivery. Yes we had stinkbug holdup but only for 2 weeks.

I have just recently driven from Darwin to Cairns & back (M3 poverty pack) with many days over 40 degrees. I did not notice any increase in consumption while driving. Airconditioning was pulling a little more but not much. However getting into a very hot car the Airconditioning does use a few...

Evie in Darwin. I am changing now.

Yes using regen.

Well now back in Darwin sitting on the Verandah with a beer. The return trip went well with the only hiccups being first attempt, Camooweal to Barkly Homestead, and keeping the EVSE cool on hot sunny days. With the Barkly run we did not consider the headwind. Leaving the following morning...

Sitting in Barkly now. Left Camooweal this morning with a full charge before the winds picked up. Arrived with 35%. Now on a slow charge overnight for a run up the Stuart Highway tomorrow. Hope to reach Daley Waters Pub for the next overnight, with stops at the 3 ways ($1:80 electrickery)...

Well you live and learn. Our first fail of the trip. Left Camooweal for Barkly Homestead with 86%. Car showed 17% remaining, ABRP 15% remaining on arrival travelling @ 100Kph. Headwinds!!!. 60Klm in it became obvious that our consumption over 10, 25 & 50Klm between 196 & 205Kw per Klm was...

New DCFC in Richmond on Chargefox. First to use it and checkin on Plugshare. Certainly breaks up the leg between Hughenden & Julia Creek. Richmond is a nice stop. Oh and after giving it a bath in Cairns.

Don't look to close, it is pretty grubby, but it doesn't show up as bad as it does on the white cars. It did get washed when we got to Cairns. Tonight in Cloncurry one of the locals walking past while charging pointed out "Needs a wash".

Used it today. First checkin on plugshare. Nice place for a break between Hughenden and Julia Creek.

Yes. Had them before. They also knocked up a pretty good pizza this time.

Our first road trip. Darwin to Cairns. In all it took 6 days using AC charging from Darwin to Mount Isa, and DCFC from Mount Isa to Cairns. Our M3RWD was loaded with a Tent just in case, a space saver spare just in case, and a UMC with 10 amp, 15amp and 32amp 5 pin 3 phase plugs. Although the...

I used to see the USS proximity lines when towing the trailer. While driving, since 32.6 the lines have been replaced with a tailgating truck.

So what is the version of the new Evie Charging App? I Installed the new app more than a week ago, looked good, everything came across, so uninstalled the old version. Just recieved an email from Evie Introducing the new app with download and install now. So checked the version of the...

My yacht still has a small inboard diesel. When I pull up at a petrol station to get 10 litres of diesel in a small carry can, I am invariably asked what it is for. I tell them it is for a mate in his ICE 4wd who has run out of juice just down the road near the solar farm.

Still can't add the second car to the new app. Thought it might be handy for it to filter on whichever one you are using at the time. Have an M3 & a Leaf. Might be inconvenient on the east coast but not a real problem up here though. Once we leave town neither car can reach the next fast charger.

Don't know about NSW by mine was offloaded in Brisbane and delivered to my door unregistered. I am in the NT so drove to town & registered it the same day.

Got the App V 4.23.2 today and it gets a mention under go off grid and pair phone with powerwall option. Will see if there is anymore when I get home to pair, but powerwall is still at 23.12.2 & car 23.12.11, so probably need some more updates yet.

Another data point. The Towbar is not currently offered by Tesla for the model 3 in Australia, however they continually advise it as "Coming soon". The vehicle meets the design requirements for towing, delivered with or without a towbar. Our M3's are built in Shanghai. I have an aftermarket...

More than twice that for me. I always add Katherine NT to the suggested sites. It is about as far as I can get from home without charging.

Our 7year old gets occasional use when the days runaround exceeds the current range.

Subsidy, Subsidy your lucky. In our state/territory we got no subsidy. (We do get reduced stamp duty & $57 dollar discount on rego). Fast charging, we used to dream of fast charging (Now only 1600Klm between both fast chargers so can't complain) And we lived in a shoe box in the middle of the...

I have only been using Charge HQ for the 3 months since my car arrived. I admit I like what it does a lot, but the subscription @ $7 per month with my feed in tariff is equivalent to 100Kw per month. Probably not a relevant comparison, and I don't know how many tens/hundreds/thousand- (Ok only...

Previously had the reverse party trick. 60K zone with sign "Max Speed 110K unless otherwise signposted" It would see this and both TACC speed & Max changed to 110 and then it would start to accelerate. Since the 2023.12.1 update it now ignores this sign. My old eyes love the font size...

Happy Easter. 6 O'clock this morning. Fortunately still holding 25PSI by the time I got to tyrepower. 30 Minutes & $45 to fix and I am on my way again.

Yes this is common practice, as is paying by multiple smaller payments. I first sent $5 which showed up in the App the following day. Each payment shows in the app until final amount is paid.

Reverse took me a little longer to get used to. I initially reversed with much trepidation, both from the single pedal and reduced visibility than I was used to. Having got used to it I now reverse with confidence, but rely more on the mirrors now than I did in my previous vehicle. The response...

My November build 2022 M3 only 5K on the clock still shows 439 when fully charged. I can do Batchelor return using 50% @ highway speeds. A return trip of 190K which includes 80 Klm @ 130KPH.

I'll still be voting for Katherine, about 320K south of Darwin. Wasted vote I know but it would be the first one in NT, so got to try.

I don't know, but have you noticed how many actually arrive undamaged. I'm impressed.
