Been busy sorting charging cables
Spent the afternoon drilling into garage wall to hang the charging cable, aimed for it to be out of the way, but also reach the charging port on the car irrespective of parking orientation.
Now just need a windy day to test how well I did! |

Very industrious, but can I suggest you change the wall power outlet to a proper outside version that is waterproof. I’m not sure the one you have at the moment is legal......at least not here in South Australia.

When I had it installed, that's what I asked for. But the electrician told me I won't need that because it's fairly well shielded (it's under cover in this spot. I got an certificate for the work, so I that should mean it's all legal!

How long does the car take to charge from near discharged to fully charged? Have you had a chance to test what range you can get on pure battery? I would imagine your combined fuel economy is pretty low.

Combined range is around 450km (as reported by the app) Full battery reported range is around 40km I can charge at a max of 8amps, which should fill it up in about 5.5 hours, but by calculating the rate for partial charges , looks like a full charge would take around 8hrs. It’s been hard to go and do a proper test, hopefully over the next week I get do a full electric range test. |
