    Welcome to Estes. I hope you get some sun, but we're glad for the water. Maybe the fires won't repeat.

    Be warned, Estes has been crowded. A lot of visitors to the park before the reservations system starts

    Hockey team was on dorm floor above me - practiced shots in hall. CC was nice, across the street it was rough. Walked from CC to top of Pikes. That was a long day.

    #6 in conduit and #4 in anything may both be to code, but with a long run, almost 2:1 in loss

    Wire size for wall charger

    OK, a little physics. Let's see what drives the code Copper #6 has a resistance of .8 mohm / ft at 20C (that's round trip, both the black and red). Loss is i^2 r, for 48A, 1.8 W / ft For #4, it's 1.12 W / ft The code writers said that it's safe to have 1.8 W when the wire is high-temp in a pipe...

    Model X and S 12V battery finally going Li-ion

    It has to do with the required high voltage to run the traction. You can't trivially change 400V DC to 12V DC. And you don't want to use 400V for the seat motors.

    I spent a semester in CS in 1970. Colorado College. They were about to start the block system. Looked a lot different then.

    Colorado springs to Centennial is only about 50 miles. Monument pass is maybe 1/2 way? I've driven that many times in the winter, sometimes Palmer divide is bad, but still pretty close

    Major 2021 Model X refresh pending [Update: Unveiled January 27, 2021]

    I just updated my XLR (ordered 1/6/2021), and paid the extra. The advisor offered $2000 reduction, but I don't see it in the configuration. The delivery is still stated as March.

    Now that my X on order has been changed to a lower range with the refresh, I'm more in need of this charger (maybe)

    Major 2021 Model X refresh pending [Update: Unveiled January 27, 2021]

    I place an order for an X long range 1/6. Just got the "We can talk tomorrow" message from my advisor. Wonder what they're going to do about the $10k+ increase. And the range went down.

    Our ICE route has been Austin - Brownwood - Sweetwater - Lubbock - Amarillo - Trinidad. Clayton sure makes it easier. Lubbock would be nice. But I'll take anything along that route. Clayton is a lot better than Kansas. Boise city has it's merits, doesn't look like that route opens up soon

    No I35 is near gospel for anyone living in Austin. If nothing else, bad for your karma.

    That's what I hoped, but I have a history of driving the route in a snowstorm with high winds. Once with 6" of hail on the ground, had to stop until it melted

    I just purchased an X long range; and will be driving to Colorado in March. Hope the charger is active by then. We regularly make the Austin - Colorado trip, this will be the first time in an electric.
