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.

Our Model Y had a bad SIM that they replaced. Was working and not working before it just stopped.

Yes looks like the Evie ones been built. The ones local councils doing not done

cool checking Bass coast ones done by council might also be the problem Bass Coast EV charging stations – Powerplant Company doing it says construction completion in March although saw nothing Nov council says be finished March as well Although says June same article :)...

Went down Inverloch and Wonthaggi on the weekend. Cannot see anything started. Now says June 2024 on map like most. At least Cape Patterson worked. Has any new sites been started or opened since they lost the EV tax? Or have the quietly shelved it

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...

Wish the Vic Gov was better. They not even delivered many of their non Tesla single stalls they promised

I also think it lifestyle.. The Origin plan you can charge whenever you want to. If you have a smart meter you can normally down load 2 years worth put it in a spreadsheet and do your sums :) It all depends where you are with prices. Jemena Vic Origin is either 89.23 a day, 25.37cents/kw flat...

There is a Highland at Doncaster hopefully they set it up correctly :)

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%...

NZ has a lot more options Oz for EV's and BYD NZ seems a lot better then OZ. Also think rebates stopped??

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...

It will come back to you from Tesla. The MY came back 7 days later.. refund to credit card The M3 they had to do plus trade in $.. took 3 weeks was paid as more $ into my bank account.
