A couple of months ago I was talking to one of the officers about my Y and he told me they were looking into ordering Teslas. I guess it's official now: https://www.thedartmouth.com/article/2024/02/department-of-safety-and-security-begins-transition-to-electric-vehicles Will post pictures...

Note to mods - Please don't merge this with the "Buying from New Hampshire" thread - I think this is important enough the it needs its own, attention grabbing thread title. Thanks! As noted by @MSMSquad1 in this post and following, the Tesla pricing in the database that NH cities and towns use...

From the agenda for the 3/24/22 meeting of the StJ Development Review Board (minutes not yet posted): http://docs.stjvt.com/index.php/town-government/public-meetings/development-review-board/2022-agenda-2/870-drb-agenda-2022-03-24/file Location is in the Price Chopper parking lot at the...

So I think my 4 year old 12V is nearly dead, but the odd thing is I have had no warnings. The last couple of nights I heard the HV contactor click when I took the dog out for his late night walk. This morning I paid more attention, and noticed the contactor is clicking once/minute. I pulled...

Superchargers are under construction at the I95 Madison rest areas, both northbound and southbound, between exits 61 and 62. Both are 10 stalls. I stopped by this morning to check it out. The northbound stations are behind the McDonald's building in the back of the lot (follow the truck...

I just got a new phone (Android) and I noticed that I'm not seeing sigs when viewing TMC in landscape mode. I'm pretty sure that with my old phone, I saw sigs in landscape mode but not portrait mode. Both phones are/were running Android 8.1. I'm trying to figure out if this is: A TMC change...

In case anyone is trying to find one of the elusive PS2's, Tirerack has a $277 closeout deal on 265/35ZR21 (rear tire for P85+ w/ staggered tires). I just got 3 (1 to replace an almost new tire with sidewall damage, 2 more for another rear set to hopefully last until my fronts wear out and I...

I debated posting this here or over in the New England forum (where it would probably get few views but more local interest?); New England won out for some reason. Anyway... Liberty Utilities files for Tesla battery pilot in NH (Mods - if posting the link is a no-no, feel free to delete or...

Liberty Utilities has filed DE 17-189 with the NH PUC to introduce a battery storage pilot in NH using Powerwall 2's. They are looking to install 1000 batteries in customer residences, in a program modeled after Green Mountain Power's battery program in VT. Customers can lease 1 or 2 batteries...

Nuts... Guess I need to finally install that HPWC. And clean out the garage so I can put the car away.

Tonight, for the second time, my car temporarily lost power brake assist. The symptom was a very heavy/stiff brake pedal, with extended stopping distances (with very heavy pressure, I could stop normally). It felt like an ICE car with a loss of vacuum assist. The first time it happened (last...

I couldn't find anything with a search, so here goes... A few days ago I got the "12V battery needs service; replace 12V battery soon" message (2014 P85+). I have a service appointment for replacement in 2 weeks. After the message occurred, I noticed I can lo longer summon/autopark. I have...

Can anyone identify this piece of plastic? It was packed in the bag with my UMC and adapters in my CPO. I don't know if it is something official, or something the prior owner left behind. It has the "Pitch in" symbol on it, which makes me think it's trash. Maybe packing material of some...

In case anyone needs an emergency boost to make it to the next Supercharger when passing through Nashua, this HPWC just appeared on plugshare - 100 Innovative Way | Nashua, NH | Electric Car Charging Station | PlugShare I stopped by late last night on my way north and plugged in (I was hoping...

Can one of the NH owners tell me how the delivery/registration process works for NH residents picking up in Dedham? There's 2 gotchas I see that I don't know how they work around: Before processing a NH registration at the state level, your excise tax needs to be paid to your town. Most of...

This is interesting... Paragraph 2 of the Model 3 reservation agreement says (emphasis mine): The same section of the Model X reservation agreement says "between you and us or between you and another Tesla subsidiary (Tesla)." (ie, nothing about dealers). Insert appropriate emoticons here...

Is there any way to color-code the status of subforums on the home page (red if new posts)? For instance, the "North American" forum gets a red dot if there are any new posts in that forum or any subforums (grey if no new posts). But the subforum icons are always black. I'd like those to...

The transformer that feeds my house decided to give itself an old fashioned Viking funeral around 9pm Thursday night. Unfortunately I missed most of the excitement, since the power wasn't impacted until the power company cut the power to replace it about 45 minutes later. With the house dark...

Is it possible to embed a YouTube and have the embedded player start mid-video? For instance, if you click this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVL4wKnpx2U&t=46 the video starts playing at 0:46, but if I use the embedded player by clicking on the "Insert Video" button and pasting the same...

I can't believe there isn't a thread about this already. Mods, I checked Energy, Environment, and Policy and News and didn't see anything. Feel free to merge or delete if I missed something. A friend of mine who works for a local solar installer told about this last night over a beer...

Does anyone have any experience (good or bad) with any film/slide scanning services? I have ~20 slide carousels full of family photos my Dad took over the years that I'd like to convert to digital. It's way to big a job for DIY, so I'm looking to send it out.

(Mods: feel free to move this thread if this is the wrong forum. I was going back and forth between Model 3, Technical, and Cars and Transportation, but went with here because I'm thinking about it in the context of the Model 3) I was watching "How It's Made Dream Cars - Porsche 918 Spyder"...

In case anyone's interested: The Sunapee Lions Club runs an annual car show at Mount Sunapee at the end of June. For those familiar with the ski area, the entire lawn area between the two lodges is filled with cars from the 30's through today. Mount Sunapee is around 50 miles north of the...

Trolling Craigslist, I found a local dealer selling a 2013 P85 they took in trade. They claim it has the "Performance Plus Package (Upgraded Suspension)," yet it does not have a + badge on the back, and the dash display clearly shows "Model S P85" (not P85+). What gives? Could you order the...

So with my inability to load Tesla's design center post-70D announcement, I was wondering how many users there were here (to discuss/read about the 70D, mine for article quotes, etc). So I scroll down to "Currently Active Users" and see: There are currently 1838 users online. 319 members and...

I heard this on WBZ this morning. NH and the Granite State Clean Cities Coalition are announcing the availability of rebates to support EVSE installation in NH. Yes, it's only $49,000, but it's a start. NHDES Announces Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Rebates | Press Release 2015 | Media...

I've been thinking off and on about doing a conversion on my 2004 Mini Cooper S, but the numbers just don't seem to make sense. Alternative #1 - Convert the Mini: 40 CALB CA180's (~$243 ea, 3.2V nominal, 180Ah) - $9720 for 128V nominal, 23kWh. Add in $7k-$8K for an AC system with regen - motor...

I just noticed that there is a grey "Opening Soon" marker on the "today" SC map in the West Lebanon, NH/WRJ, VT area. Is this new? I don't recall seeing it before. Here's a direct link to the map jpg (you can expand it to full size for a better view of New England)...

Has anyone thought about the timeline for the Model 3? I haven't found much in the way of discussion beyond "release in 2017". I'm sure this is easy for people who followed the Model S/X development closer then me. I'm wondering if we can back into guesstimates on upcoming dates for the Model...

Help me clean out my garage. I have an old 60+ foot marine 30A/120V ship-to-shore power cable taking up most of a shelf, and I want it gone. My aunt and uncle gave it to me when they sold their boat, but I have no use for it. This appears to be standard 10/3 SOOW cord, but it is old and well...

Massachusetts announced the details of the MOR-EV program yesterday, offering rebates for purchases of BEV's as well as plug-in hybrids, fuel cell vehicles, and electric motorcycles: Patrick Administration Announces $3.4M for EV Programs The Model S is specifically listed as eligible for the...
