So have had my Hypervolt for coming up to 2 years now and its gone a horrible yellow colour, anyone tried to clean it with anything to get it back to how it was ?

So many acronyms 🤪. And ok that’s a bit rubbish would be better if there was an option for this. Ah well. Thanks.

Ok sure it’s asked but I’m using the single press down for auto pilot rather than the twice press down. But now it seems when I indicate and change lanes it totally cancels it all ? Is that right as was never like that before.

Didn't want to start a new thread. Just wondered if anyone has managed to do any automation with Hypervolt. In particular I'd want it to turn on the LED's at night as I approach the house. ( I already have hue outdoor motion sensor). Tried using Alexa routine but as the Hypervolt integration...

thanks all for your advise :)

Difficult to answer but my Octopus Intelligent is coming to the end soon. Best to just renew it at the new rates ? Your current Intelligent Octopus prices Peak unit rate: 35.05p / kWh Off-peak unit rate: 7.50p / kWh Standing charge: 47.86p / day Estimated annual cost (electricity only)...

Any recommendations on a campsite in the South West UK which allows EV charging and sleeping in the car ? Found a site which we were about to book but they have confirmed we can't charge the car there :(

Typical, car didn’t start charging !! And got a long trip today. Has to start it manually and now octopus has scheduled cheaper rate up to 10am. Anyone come across this before ??

Where did you get this info as I've just checked my HyperVolt charger app as i've only ever charged at home and it says 418.74kWh and i've driven 1027 miles. edit: nevermind, stupid app, was showing me stats of one month and not total 🤨😝

65C here !! I've just vent the windows, hopefully it doesn't bust the electronics !!!

Just plugged my car in and it’s not giving me a schedule! It’s just charging now instead unless I manually stop it Any ideas , seems to be since the recent update ?

Meant to ask.... how do i stop the ac coming on all the time ? Sometimes i just need to pop into the car to grab something or unload the car for example....

I haven't checked today, but mine doesn't seem to remember the log in for Netflix and Youtube, is this a known issue ? Have had to sign back in twice now which is a pain !

But when will it know when to start to charge the car if I plug it in at 8pm for example ?

For a tariff called intelligent it seems very manual 🙄

Thanks very much for all your advice. I’ve turned off smart charging in the octopus app just now which I didn’t know about. Seems kinda stupid …. Oh well. Don’t plan to drive it tomorrow either so I’ll double check it and see what it is

Thanks, I’ve got octopus intelligent. But the cable isn’t plugged in so assume it’s not doing anything ??

Hi, Only have had my MY since last Saturday. But I've noticed that it seems to be using a fair amount of battery when parked on my drive at home. For example last night (this morning) charged it to 80% which stopped at about 5:30am. I have just checked the app for the first time today and its...

Out of interest so I get charged the cheaper rate every evening after midnight regardless if i charge my car overnight ?

Do you guys carry around the blue type 2 cable around ? Can’t believe how heavy it is !! Assuming I won’t need it if I use a SC anyway ??

Just picked up from Bristol. Brilliant and very easy. Sent a command to open the boot so I knew which car was mine 🤣. 51% charge and 7 miles on the clock.

I got a call from Tesla and asked the same question. Was told there will be approx 100 miles of charge.

Ordered early April from Tuskers (lease) but it was one of their 'stock' vehicles so possibly someone ordered and changed their mind. So somehow getting it for June 25th pickup ! LR / white / black interior / 19'' wheels.

exciting times, just got a text. Saying my vehicle is nearly here and confirmed the RN number :)

Wow huge checklist !! Will take ages to go through it all !!

Hi, Question about pickup. Are the times quite specific or could it be anytime all day ?? Tesla has given me a date and I can only move it one day either side which is a pain 🙁

Get the RN number from Tuskers and call Tesla direct. That's what I have had to do. Not ideal to be honest. And yeah the app doesn't show anything until you physically pick up the car, at which point the car will get transferred to you, well that's what I've been told !

Lucky, I called Tesla and got confirmed pickup 22nd June !! I've ordered through lease company (Tuskers) and all the emails / texts were being sent to them !! So good thing I called and checked !!

I ordered through a lease and when I spoke to Tesla recently they said they have it on their system that pickup is from Bristol. So can only assume they must have worked out that is my closest location. They did say i can change it if i wanted to but need to let them know asap.

Sure its been asked before but I'll be picking up from Bristol hopefully. Do Tesla give you a small timeslot to pick up the vehicle and how much time should I give myself before I can drive off with the car ?

Just spoke to Tesla, and I've been matched 😀 Ordered through Tuskers leasing, white / black / 19. Ordered around early April. Gave me a date of 13-25 June from memory.

Thanks very much for the info, tried asking them a few times and never really got a direct answer :/

Anyone put a personalised plate on their lease vehicle, in particular with Tuskers ? Just wondering if its worth the hassle for a 4 year lease 😄. As I've got the V778 so its ready to put on the new vehicle. But just thinking ahead, when I remove it again I'll need to pay the £80 to get it off...

Hmm hasn’t gone up that’s much. Just done it again and £889 gross cost. That’s MY, 19’’ wheels, white, 7500 miles, oh and non main dealer service and no relief car.

Why not just connect own phone instead ??

Morning, Those who have a business / salary sacrifice lease.... in particular with Tuskers. How do they take the money as I just spoken to them and even they sounded quite confused. I thought they take the gross amount before tax. And then your employer does all the tax / BIK calculations...

So does that mean if the servers are offline you can’t use the charger anymore ??

ah, any issues with Tuskers ? As this will be my first ever lease. I have always bought cars outright with cash.... but my cars have never ever cost this much before ! 😁

Its with Tuskers. Model Y. White. 19'' wheels. 4 years, 7500 a year. So essentially the cheapest options 😆 I think its about £860 gross. So after tax savings etc and depend if high / low tax bracket is about £520 - £590 a month. Dunno if that is good to be honest. Still thinking about it .....

Hi, just to add to this, hope the OP doesn't mind. I'm able to get a lease through work salary sacrifice which will cost me about £520 a month net inc maintenance, insurance etc. For about 7500 miles a year. The thing is I have nothing to compare against on approx value of the car in 4 years...

Hi all, About to press the button to order MY through Tuskers using my work salary sacrifice scheme. Works out to be about £520 ish a month net. Just wondered is there anything I should be aware of before I jump on this ? Never had an EV car currently driving an 8 year old car 😳
