Citation needed. But you are wrong. Even if you charged your Tesla exclusively from electricity generated at Yallourn, it still produces…

I'm about to move to a property that has a fireplace. I'm a log-splitting virgin. I have a basic/cheap axe from Bunnings, but I don't think…

If you have ignored the climate change data for your whole life, you aren't going to be convinced by some random on Ozbargain.

Climate change denialist - got it.

Christ are you deliberately being obtuse? The benefit of a robust charging network is increased adoption of EVs, which itself is a societal…

The benefits of a robust charging network. Government intervention can (and is) help with this. A robust charging network helps with…

I know what you mean, but its one of those things where the benefits are realised once a critical mass is met - and the government can help…

It's 8 years. That is far better than most other vehicles. Most are 5-7.

I own both. The Tesla is better. But you would hope so because it costs more. The BYD is very good value for money.

70% at 8 years is quite different to 60% at 5 years...

You know you need to pay for any deficit between the pay out and the cars value, right? You don't get to just hand the keys over and walk…

You've asked a reasonable question. The thing is - an EV's battery cannot be compared to batteries you are used to in phones, tablets and…

Sorry I was just giving the button a name - the real benefit of it is to stop charging and unlock the port without messing with the app or…

5 pin is much more common.

Tesla Wall Connector is good. You will need an electrician (any, no speciality required) to install it. There are other options, but the…

Depends if you want a charger that has removable tails, or you want only 5pin 32a. That charger won't work on a regular powerpoint for…

The easiest thing to do is to port your current Boost number to another provider (Aldi mobile has a $5 SIM) and then port it back to Boost.…

Found the South Australian! No Foodland here in Vic. We shop at Coles, with the occasional top-up at Aldi. We should do more of our…

Jeez where are you shopping that $150 a week is a lot even with kids? My family of 4 spent $350 last week. That's probably higher than…

Any tips on a super cheap iPad for the young kids to use while travelling (plane etc, not typically to be used otherwise)? Even this iPad…

It doesn't work with Homebase 2. Homebase 3 support will either be there, or coming.

Most portable EVSE's can do 10amp, including the Tesla option.

I think we are on slightly different tangents :) I was referring to the theoretical 1A inverter you mentioned. 500v x 1A = 500w (Tesla…

Good thought, though the inverter would need to output like 500v. Also, I know many EVSE's (including the Tesla UMC) require ground to…

I wish my EV's got 10kWh/100km. The most efficient around average about 15kWh/100km, especially if you factor in charging losses. I'm…

I've had this model (or at least it seems the same) for about 10 years and it's still going strong. Plenty of power. Replace the blade it…

Same(ish) price here: https://myeufy.com.au/eufy-security-solocam-c210.html But with free delivery, versus ~$9 from JB.

How does the Ender-3 V2 compare to the Anet A8? I had an A8 back in the day, but got rid of it after having kids and no time to mess with…

I'd suggest starting with 1. Halo has great gameplay, but its the story that is the real MVP - you would be doing yourself a disservice to…

Nice one. I have the Wall Connector as well and use it to charge my Tesla and BYD. Works perfect with both cars, and looks great.
