    2023.12...

    I have a pair of bifocals for driving which work great, with the lower section set for intermediate distances and the upper, long distance part with a small correction that makes things a tad sharper although I don't actually need long-distance glasses normally. The only drawback is that I also...

    Intelligent octopus stopped working!

    I get a similar issue with an EO mini pro 2 charger - sometimes works fine, sometimes trips after 15-20 minutes. It's using a Garo G6EV40PME 40A dedicated CU. I'd be interested if replacing the RCBO makes a difference for you.

    Was it even the real Elon Musk, or the $8 model?

    Extra Uses For Off-Peak Electricity

    I'd be interested to know how you get on with a smart thermostat. We have underfloor heating in the kitchen (using a gas boiler) and a dumb room thermostat so it often kicks in overnight as the temperature drops. I'm thinking of changing the thermostat so that I can programme a lower temperature...

    [uk] UltraSonic Sensors removal/TV replacement performance

    I agree. Driving in the dark last night with intermittent rain/drizzle on mostly dual carriageway, I couldn't use AP because it turns on the auto-mainbeam which simply doesn't work well enough to avoid annoying drivers coming the other way. If I used cruise control then the wipers have to be on...

    Extra Uses For Off-Peak Electricity

    I'd second that. I would also add a word of caution if, like me, your immersion heater has a 3-pin plug on it, designed to be an emergency use only if the gas boiler fails. A lot of 3-pin plugs and sockets, despite being rated for 13A continuous, will not cope with this over an extended period...

    possible first time long distance + wrong side of the road. Tips? Mad?

    Yep, been there, done that. It's when you're relaxed, 2nd or 3rd day in, and you (not the car) are on autopilot ;-) Quiet country roads can catch you out as well, with no traffic to remind you.

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    This! I'm also using a google vm and the change to the new machine type is nothing to do with the Teslamate authentication issue.

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    Same for me - no data since 1st Sept, tho I haven't used the car that much so only noticed it on Monday 6th. I fixed it by logging in using tokens rather than email and password. See the previously posted link for a solution using an app to get the API token etc - it worked for me, though I'm a...

    I'm pretty sure the only free servers are the US ones.

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    Today, 2nd Aug, it's certainly available and having stopped the original f1 micro VM, edited the machine type to be e2 micro, and restarted, everything is back as it was. Took about 5 minutes, mostly waiting for the VM to stop and then start again!

    UK 2021 Refresh RHD Model 3 Accessories [megathread]

    The tyre inflator was the AstroAI one which works and seems to be well made but I haven't had need to use it yet in anger. The jack pads haven't arrived yet so I won't comment on them until I see them.

    UK 2021 Refresh RHD Model 3 Accessories [megathread]

    So far I have bought: 1) SSD for sentry (UGreen SD Card Reader £13 and SanDisk High Endurance 128GB mem card £22 from Amazon) 2) Coloured mud flaps from Torque Alliance - you may not want these if the black ones look ok with Grey 3) Also got the door-open button stickers for £8 from TA - I...

    Tesla Referral Scheme to change again

    Yep, my referral details have disappeared from my Tesla account home page but I think this is just an issue with their servers. TBH it was only ever a nice bonus so I'm not too worried :)

    Regen limited after descent

    Could it be related to how quickly your battery can charge, akin to how fast you can charge sometimes when cold etc when plugged in? I mean, that is effectively what regen is doing - if the battery canna take any more, cap'n, for whatever reason, then the regen will stop.

    Wiki UK 2021 Orders and Pending Deliveries

    Thanks for the info. I get mine on June 11th from there, at least I won't be wandering round the carparks for half-an-hour now!
