Hi Guys,
I mostly drive my Roadster for shorter trips driving it like a sports car and have not really tried to drive gently for long distances.
I am trying to decide whether to use my Roadster on a longer trip on monday and would welcome any advice, especially about charge times as the battery gets near full.
Before starting I will fully charge (240V / 30A) in range mode.
Trip 1 - 135 miles to a friends house. I can then charge 240V / 13A overnight, say 12 hours.
Trip 2 - friends house to customer site. 43 miles. Whilst at customer site I can charge but only expect to be there for a couple of hours.
Trip 3 - customer site to home. 172 miles. This is the one that worries me as I am not convinced I will be full charged when I set off.
Does the above sound OK or should I plan to drive a slower but more direct route / plan to route via a charger.
Thanks
Alan
