    Supercharger - Minocqua, WI

    But Minocqua to Carlton is almost 100 miles shorter than Marquette MI to Carlton.

    Available Seat Belt Extenders

    Fair enough - we're talking about children's safety here. FWIW, these were the only ones I felt comfortable using with my grandkids. Seat Belt Extender Pros™ - Safety You need to decide for yourself.

    Supercharger - Minocqua, WI

    I did Duluth (Carlton to be exact) to Marquette last October in my MY. Did a 1 hour L2 charge (over lunch) in Ironwood. But we did not explore along the way. So if leaving Duluth at 100% and you can fit in 2-3 hours of L2 charging while exploring, you should be able to do it.

    Available Seat Belt Extenders

    The button is not depressed. Just a different style. That one matches the MY belts. I suspect the other matches the original M3 belt style. But both work. And just tested in the front seats. They work there as well.

    Available Seat Belt Extenders

    I have 2 seat belt extenders from Seat Belt Extender Pros. They are for the rear seat. Excellent condition; not dirty and release buttons work smoothly. One was used in my M3 and both were used in my MY. They are the rigid style which I felt worked better with car seats. They were purchased...

    Early 2023 probably means June.

    Hoping to use this SC in a few weeks. Seems like delays over and above the typical construction schedule.

    Massachusetts EV Off-Peak Charging for National Grid customers?

    I vaguely remember seeing that Nat Grid in NY has an off peak program. If so, that would explain why this program is not available in NY.

    Rear Seat Liner Recommendations for the Y

    We are considering this one because it accommodates the split rear seat (I think the earlier version of this one did not): https://www.amazon.com/Topfit-Waterproof-Covers-Protector-All-Weather/dp/B093BDJYWT/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_bdcrb_top?ie=UTF8 One note of caution is that some thought the velcro on...

    Supercharger - Escanaba, MI

    Nice. I've thought about this route in trips to east coast from Minnesota. But reliance on the destination charger at hotel in Escanaba was a concern as it could be in use, iced, or broken. This provides a backup and the opportunity to choose a different hotel if necessary.

    Recommendations for how to measure kWh used to charge my model 3 in my condo garage

    Clever idea. The required meter base isn't too expensive. A bit bulky though.

    Recommendations for how to measure kWh used to charge my model 3 in my condo garage

    You're correct; the car won't know whether I'm charging at the condo, a SC, my son's house, or the L2 charger at the grocery store. So that's out. I could, of course, keep meticulous records - but that's not likely. Besides, one of the drawbacks of condo life is that people should be...

    Recommendations for how to measure kWh used to charge my model 3 in my condo garage

    Not sure I understand the breakeven comment. I'm not the OP and based on the first post he/she has a similar, though completely independent situation. I'm simply looking at the simplest way for me to meter my usage at the condo so I can properly reimburse my neighbors.

    Recommendations for how to measure kWh used to charge my model 3 in my condo garage

    It would be time consuming to track. For example, I often charge at my son's house (10 min away), using his solar. So far, the roughly $300 submeter might be the best option. Less when you factor in the credit.
