sorted bySorry...now I'm on a rant....
I dread charging at non-Tesla charge stations, it's scandalous how complicated many of them are to use for casual travelling. Install an app (let's hope I've mobile data signal) then sign up and register, then input car and card details and approve a prepayment on my banking app using MFA, I'm now 10mins in and a petrol car would have fueled, paid and been on their way by now. Then next, you finally get to the point on the app to start the charge and it tells you there was an error of some sort, and then you rinse and repeat and perhaps get it to start charging; this happens way too often. Another great one is the charge just stopping 15mins in, and you have to walk back to your car and reset, this happened to me at those rubbish podpoint chargers last week, had to do that twice! Another issue I encountered was only being able to charge if I had whatever company's RFID card, which is just great when you're parked there with 7% battery and have no options available. Makes me SOOOO MAD!!
Tesla chargers are at least reliable and fast, for Tesla drivers they're easy too as by default we already have the app etc. They're the only ones getting charging near right from what I can tell. What should be the case for ALL public chargers, is you drive up, plug in, use contactless to agree a max limit, say £20 or something, and then the charge starts and bills your card for the exact amount and you drive away. Why can it not be like that? (edited)
Paying £5 for a tank, yes please
There’s +‘s and -‘s to everything in life.
I’ve just arrived and I’m charging from 25-80% in 25mins, that’s enough for me to drive from Norwich to Bristol later. It’s really no stress and the inconvenience compared to filling up a tank is minor.
All other brands are 55p to 79p at BP
I put in 50kWh so that’s saved me £15 off my peak home tariff rate or £39.5 if I was a mug without a Tesla using a generic fast charger.
‘Luv me leaded petrol
‘Ate the planet
‘Ate that namby pamby clean air
Simple as
not only is there zero problem with the grid coping, electric cars would actually help the grid manage with demand at peak usage via V2G as adoption increases (edited)
Who can blame them? There's Gazillions at stake for Big Oil. (edited)
Which to my mind wipes out all the savings..
Expected/predicted outcome: A total mayhem, extremely long queues with possible outbreaks of violence.
and then when they did start to charge was 10p I still didn’t use them because Nissan rapids were all free then few years later and Russian invasion the rates are like 77p kw
It's still laughable reading the comments from non EV/Tesla owners who still can't bear to acknowledge anything positive about Tesla.
Nearest one is bit far but got a couple of tesla ones
I have this ‘deal’ 365 days a year so I’ll wait for tomorrow I think
Thanks again to the OP.
