    I have this Eaton CH panel and i am looking for Eaton CH260 Circuit breakers. It's Backordered everywhere. How to find an alternative that will fit

    I’m running into the same problem in July 2023, not being able to find a genuine Eaton/Cutler Hammer CH260 circuit breaker. Warning Amazon has them but all I found were Chinese knockoffs of dubious quality. Be sure to look for the “Brand” in the product listing. CH250 breakers are readily...

    Home charging planning

    I purchased from Amazon (Cost $120) (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A8FQUZQ/) and highly recommend the Siemens TL17US panel that includes a NEMA 14-50R 50 Amp receptacle in a weatherproof enclosure for outdoor installations. I use this with the Tesla Mobile Connector (Mobile Connector)...

    Your circuit breaker Ampere rating should 25% more than your charger AC output Ampere rating. You should assume that any home charger should be expected to charge for more than three hours. The National Electrical Code (Article 210.20) requires the rating of the overcurrent device (circuit...

    $19.99 Aftermarket Cabin Air Filters

    Thanks for your post. My car developed that "smelly feet smell" about a month ago. My wife and I have been trying to figure out what it was. We live in Florida, land of heat and HUMIDITY!

    Model 3 Replacement Wiper Blades

    PLEASE NOTE!!! The Bosch Spectrum DirectFit Beam Wiper Blades (Part numbers B1903 and B2603) did NOT fit into the wiper blade receiver on my Tesla Model 3.

    Cruise control unavailable [Update: Turning off Sentry Mode fixed the problem]

    The cruise control on my Model 3 quit working today. I now get a message "Cruise control unavailable" each time I attempt to engage cruise control. Tesla support had me "Power Off" the car from the Safety & Security menu. That didn't fix the problem. Cruise control worked during two drives...

    Inaccurate or missing speed limit data: Tesla should be able to read speed limit signs in real time!

    Thanks for the info! I agree they're going to have to read all sorts of road signs to implement FSD. Do you have any idea where Tesla gets it's speed limit data or if there's a mechanism for updating or correcting this database.

    Inaccurate or missing speed limit data: Tesla should be able to read speed limit signs in real time!

    While I'm very impressed with Tesla's Autopilot and Full Self-Driving Capability, I'm more than disappointed that Tesla's speed limit data is wrong or missing 20-25% of the time when I'm driving on city streets and 2-lane roads in North Florida. My 2016 Volvo can read speed limit signs with...

    Blindspot detection limited, corrupt dashcam video

    I saw the "Blindpsot detection limited" warning for the first time today. I have a Model 3 with just under 10K miles and Version 2019.12.1.2. I assume this is a new bug that will be fixed soon. I'm fairly confident it's not a hardware issue. I wouldn't think of returning my Model 3. It's...
