Did another road trip in my '18 LR 3 over the holidays with a few interesting observations. First, in the past my Wh/mi was generally around 250. On this trip on the way there it was over 350, and about 280 on the way back. Most of my roadtrips before were in the hot summer with no more than 3...

I was really excited when it was announced that they would add spotify. I have the paid account and use it all the time on my phone and PC with no real problems. But in my car, it's just plain awful. It's gone through some changes in just how crappy it is, but it has consistently been crappy...

I will be making at 20+ hr drive coming up soon. Was going to be with the family, but for various reasons it looks like I will be solo. So instead of getting a hotel I figured I'd just crash at an SC on the way. Who has done this and any suggestions? I'm not talking about just reclining the seat...

So I don't drive the freeways all that often, but I've noticed that some interchanges work flawlessly, while others it tries to put me in the wrong lane, or bails completely. SB 75 to 635 (either E or W) works great, no issues. EB 635 to NB 75 tries to put me in the SB 75 lane (right) WB 635 to...

I have an EVSE from OpenEVSE | Home that I've had for over 3 years charging my Cmax Energi and 500e. I have it plugged into a Nema 6-20 outlet and it has worked fine during that time. Last week I got my 3 and I am regularly tripping the breaker. I started with both the EVSE and car set for a...

I have a Nema 6-20 outlet in my garage that the previous owner used for a welder. I have a Open EVSE charger that I have used for my PHEV for a few years. First question - what kind of m/hr will I likely get if I'm limited to 20 amps? This will likely be good enough for me, but next question...

Has anyone done calculations for the optimum speed for a long road trip? With an ICE it is always as fast as you dare, but I'm sure with an EV there are factors such as distance to the next SC, charging rate at the SC (which you likely don't know until you plug in), whether you will take extra...
