EV-VLOG #9 – Preheating your EV and battery, the actual cost and power consumption

By Martin J

Today I decided to see what the actual cost of heating my Tesla before driving. I have a FLIR camera and a meter on the plug to the car so I can see what actually happens when the battery is frozen. I will be measuring the peak kW draw as well as the total kWh used. it should be interesting to see how many kilowatt hours it uses.

what does a supercharging session look like

By Random Rud

In this video we take a look at what a supercharging sessions looks like. How fast and how to charge right to minimise waiting time. This is on my secondary channel because I missed some recording because it was one of my first supercharging sessions and I thought the status screen would be on when I left the car.

EV VLOG #6 – New car! Finally driving electric!

By Martin J

Even though the current state of the planet makes it hard to go shopping for a new car, I finally got an EV and I hope I will never have to drive an ICE car again. So this is my first electric car, I don’t ever want to drive an ICE car again. This is too comfortable. 🙂 As you might know, I didn’t expect to buy a @Tesla but they were the only ones who could deliver. The other company went into complete radio silence and didn’t even bother to tell me it was delayed. #tesla #EV #electric #green

EV-VLOG #5 Radio silence

By Martin J

Episode 5 of my EV-log where I talk about not having received my electric car. I have reserved for delivery in March. But that isn’t going to happen and they don’t know when they will be able to deliver it. It seems that the Peugeot e-208 have been delayed with no delivery date in sight. Thanks to @CruisingTheCut for the voice-over. 🙂
