Separate names with a comma.
Still missing primary utility transformer. Pad, conduits and meter base in place. Looks like we’re waiting on the electrical utility (BC Hydro I...
Parking paint went on mid day yesterday. Half a dozen electricians were working on cable terminations at the pedestals. A wee birdie told me that...
So, 15 minute walk to the Donut Mill and a 20 minute waddle back. Excellent. Best arrive empty! ;)
The critical question is: “How far is this from The Donut Mill?” Walking distance?
Last time I talked with the BC mobile service group (January 2019?), I was told that the tech was in Kelowna every other Tuesday. They were...
Very nice. 6kW? Is there a website where others (me!) can view the output from your array? We’ve been considering installing panels at our...
Leave them on the map, but mark them as not available to the public. People will hear about them one way or another, and unless they are...
Call Tesla in Vancouver. They have been very helpful in fitting us in for service when we are planning a trip to Vancouver. I try to give them a...
I'm curious (particularly with regards to BC) as to whether more than one vehicle at a time can charge at most (all?) CHAdeMo/CCS locations? I...
Our 2013 updated late last week and I’m just heading home after a drive to Edmonton. I believe that the text on the MCU is clearer now and always...
You need to do a load calculation. Here is a pretty basic form from TechnicalSafetyBC.ca. It comprises an information sheet and a load...
Unfortunately, what your inspector told you is not helpful for someone considering installing a Tesla wall connector.
This is called spreading FUD. Look it up in the Tesla documentation,...
I haven’t heard anyone poop on the Sottozero 3’s. The thread on them looks like it should work well on snow. Having said that, I have babied a...
Everytime I have been into the Vancouver Service centre they have put our vehicle on a charger. Not sure if they do this for everyone, but they...
Maybe better to move the posts concerning the Tsawwassen Superchager in this thread to the actual Tsawwassen Supercharger thread. I doubt that...
It’s not just you. Interestingly the rear hatch does open on touch of the button above the license plate, so it “sees” the fob. I can’t recall if...
I’ve been to 4 MEC locations in the last year. Two of them have EV charging; 2 of them don’t. Sweeping generalizations, especially when they are...
When Tesla recalled the original (40A) 15-40 adapters, ours was heat fused to the UMC so they replaced both the adapter and the UMC. The...
What are you guys going on about? ;) [ATTACH] (The x-ices went on 3 weeks ago for a trip down to Vancouver.)
Thank you Doug.
I too would like them in a sub-forum. Most of the supercharger threads are regionally specific. Threads on Ontario and Quebec superchargers are...
If you are taking requests, can we please stop flooding the Canada forum with a whole load of supercharger threads.
I was just in Edmonton and a 3 day rental (Thursday through Saturday) was $82.83, taxes in, for a “standard” vehicle out of YEG, which I thought...
The Vancouver service centre has replaced our driverside mirror twice in hopes of correcting a similar problem, and it still doesn't work...
That's not what I've experienced with our vehicle. Most of the time that I do a switch over between our winter and summer wheels I forget to reset...
I have a set of Sottozero IIs. I babied them through a winter and then bought a set of x-ice 3s. The Sottozero IIs are wet weather tires. They...
Mark is still there and in charge of service (for all of western Canada I believe). It's just that the facility is a little overwhelmed by the...
Back up and running. Not an electrical problem, rather the Fortis transformer base had sunk on one side and needed to be shored up before...
Cross Iron Mills, aka Rocky View, aka Calgary is currently down for Fortis transformer repair. Estimated repair time: 90 minutes. Have called...
(TL;DR, but if the squeaky wheel gets the grease...,) Navigation: 1. Why is the blue route line so thick? Blue has high contrast against the...
I agree that it is a Tesla-centric point of view, not to mention my point of view, as I don't see very many Leafs around the Okanagan. It's...
I'd be interested to know just who is using these CHAdeMo chargers. I'm suspicious that a significant percentage of the use is by Tesla owners...
I went to the pub and asked for a pint of beer. What did I get? Legally, a pint is 20 Imperial fluid oz in Canada. In the US it is US 16 fluid...
and, S = rθ Good luck with arc lengths using degrees. Just how far is it around a circle? but, I'll grant you that most people don't need to...
I wasn't asking how much it costs to run the vehicle. Rather, I was asking what electricity costs in different jurisdictions. My "incremental"...
That's why I was asking for the all in price. Just divide what you pay by the number of kWh shown on the bill and ignore all the marketing and...
On "supercharged" routes this is the same situation for us. Now we do a normal charge at home overnight and just drive. Before superchargers a...
It's interesting that you find that. I usually find that I use (a bit) more power on the westbound leg than on the eastbound leg. It seems...
I've never seen anyone else at the Merritt supercharger. I occasionally see 1 other vehicle at Hope. More recently I have seen 2+ vehicles at...
That is what i am looking for. I wasn't asking about power used by the vehicle as that will vary (greatly) depending on usage. What i am...
The cost of electricity is a regularly recurring topic scattered throughout various threads on this site. Most of the time it takes to form of a...
I'm for it as well. On recent trips to Vancouver it's been difficult to find an available charger, and it they remain free, it will become near...
Any idea what to lubricate it with? Some of us live 100's of kms away from a service centre and a visit involves an overnight stay. I've asked...
(Yes, I'm annoyed!)
[rant on]This is the sort of two-faced response one should expect from a political party that doesn't believe in a technology, doesn't understand...
Don't look too hard - they are one and the same! It's a J1772. More details on PlugShare. We have dual chargers in our vehicle so we can pull...
If you are charged leaving Kelowna, you should have no problem reaching the Revelstoke supercharge. The actual distance is around 200 km (a bit...
There are a lot of 6 kW public chargers in the Vancouver area, but they are of limited use to visitors for a couple of reasons: 1. EVs have...
Last Friday I pulled into the Hope supercharger with 36 km (rated range) remaining on our 2013 RWD S85. The chart below gives the observed...
