Bjørn's Tesla Model S videos

If gas stations can inexpensively install a few chargers and have you swipe your credit card for power it will be a brand new world.

Maybe, but I would have to think this form of charging would have to be more expensive than charging at home. As such, I'll charge mostly at home and only use this type of infrastructure in an "emergency" or on a road trip. ICE cars have to buy all of their fuel at a station whereas EV cars don't. I hope it happens, but I'm just suggesting it will be a more difficult business case for station owners since their sales will be lower.

A short timelapse showing supercharging at Lier vs Gol:

I have suggestion: video would be better if you have identical settings in both cases.

How much energy do you save by using low suspension? I did a test in 60 mph and 80 mph:

 

[EdA]

Thanks for this! Surprising it is just 1%.

 

[Bjorn]

Yeah, I think it's because Model S is quite aerodynamic already. Reducing the speed by 1-2 mph would make a bigger impact. During our trip to North Cape, I was using low a lot thinking that I would save energy in 40-50 mph in Norway. Low would be useful though if there's a strong head wind.

Off for a supercharged 300 mile journey tomorrow with a FULLY LOADED car, I suppose the tried and true "slow down a bit" will help.
Back Saturday with an empty car

That was good video. Thanks Bjorn.

Hey Bjørn, great job with all your videos -- I'm a huge fan. I love seeing all the scenery! I was wondering if the next time you make a time-lapse video, you could include some indication of the charging process? It would help to get a feel for hoe often and how long you spend charging.

I'll try out that on my next timelapse

Weekend trip to Trollstigen and Geiranger. On our way over Dovre mountains, we also saw some stunning northern lights. Bring out your beer and popcorn for this 35 minute video!

 

[Johan]

Absolutely stunning stills of the Northern Lights about 9:30 in to the video. Nice Bjørn!

 

[CHGolferJim]

Marvelous travel video........complete with Ammery's Tesla grin :biggrin:

Bjorn, another great video...thank you for what you do to open our eyes to the beauty of Norway!

Brilliantly well-done video with tremendous production values. The high-angle exterior shot was amazing. If this is your hobby, I can only assume you must be a virtuoso computer programmer!

Thank you It must have been good pictures since Tesla posted it on their Facebook and Twitter right away. Usually I have to wait a couple of weeks before they post any of my content.

Yeah, I asked her why she was smiling. And she couldn't answer why

Bjorn, another great video...thank you for what you do to open our eyes to the beauty of Norway!

And there's still a lot more places I have to show you guys.

Do you mean the shot at 23:20? I had to climb up some hills to place the tripod. Then I drove back and forth while the camera was running for 6 minutes and 38 seconds. And after all that work, 10 seconds made it into the video. But it was well worth it

Bjorn I'm still waitin' for the definitive Tesla-in-Noway video shot along Atlanterhavsveien, the Atlantic Road.

 

[BrianC]

Great video, very nice views in Norway for sure.

 

[Bjorn]

Bjorn I'm still waitin' for the definitive Tesla-in-Noway video shot along Atlanterhavsveien, the Atlantic Road.

I still have that in my plans, yes. Now that the storms are more frequent, I should go there when the waves crash over the road and the bridges. That would be a good challenge

Also, I want to show you guys Preikestolen.
I did make a video last year going there with the BMW 525d. Unfortunately, it's in Norwegian. I might do an effort to sub it one day.
