    Solar Panels UK - is it worth it?

    Can someone help a noob like me understand what steps I should take in order to understand and install battery/and or solar to get off the grid and maximize the octopus go window - I don't use it unless I'm charging! We have 2 young ones and my wife refuses to switch the usage during the...

    12v Switched?

    For my model Y I purchased a Egen Cellink NEO 6 lipo battery to avoid tapping into wires as I did for my model 3 - planning on powering my ambient lights and my dashcam from the cellink. I most likely will tap into the footwells to get the trigger for my relay. Rather than a switched 12v, I was...

    MYP UK Waiting Room

    I would highly recommend gap insurance. Also on Insurance talk - getting a quote 30 days from the time you need it is usually the cheapest - the insurance company can save the quote without the registration and once you get it (about a week before pick up), you can let them know and start the...

    Free public charging etiquette?

    Yes agreed that is the real issue, irrespective of phev or bev. The Tesco has a 3 hr restriction, which must not apply to staff. In this scenario, I would expect, for etiquette's sake, that once the RR is fully charged the car should be moved to allow usage of both pod points. The smaller...

    Free public charging etiquette?

    Funny you mentioned a range rover PHEV! At my local Tesco, there are 2 free 7 kw pod points. I don't often need to charge as it's usually a short shop and it will make hardly any difference to my charge lvls, but every time I've visited (sometimes twice a day) 1 of the 2 is constantly used by a...

    MYP UK Waiting Room

    As I had always had a keen eye on the MYP, I have been following this thread with anticipation of its arrival here in the UK! I noticed a few people on here are not aware of the processes tesla has, so my post here might help some of you who are new to tesla's unique buying approach. The way...

    Does anyone wave anymore?

    Hey! When I got my model 3, I waved at others (my son loves spotting them and counts how many he sees on each journey) - I found the S and X's to not wave back, but my fellow 3 bedrins did. Nowadays I get blanked by practically everyone but the odd 3/Y, and SWMBO just laughs at me and tells me...

    Model Y low speed pedestrian safety sound

    This is interesting - my 2020 Model 3 didn't have the speaker installed for pws to work at all, and during its tenure, I didn't have any close encounters with pedestrians. I liked the fact it made no noise, especially late nights/ early mornings - it was very stealth-like. My model y does...

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    This worked perfectly. I did the same for the timeline and that's now working as well :) Legend, thank you.

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    I didn't, and don't know how to. I must have got lucky when i created my folder a few years back. I had a quick look to see if I can find variables and found it within the dashboard settings - heres the two side by side.
