Cool story Hansel.

Quick google suggests a similar size battery (5kWh) would be about $1k minimum. Add a little more in hardware you might need. You might be…

Wow that's huge! Thanks for pointing out the main difference that I missed.

How do these compare with a Bambu A1? The Bambu is $499 at the moment: https://au.store.bambulab.com/products/a1

Unloan is 5.74%. This one is 5.44%.

Would these work for a ride-on mower? I know its deep cycle so probably doesn't have high cranking amps, but a single piston mower surely…

We really need to stop using Ah's when advertising batteries. Wh's is a much better measure.

In which case a smart solar-aware charger is even more useless to you.

Just use a 'dumb' charger during daylight hours. This will get you 90% of the way to a 'smart' charger, without the added cost. I doubt you…

The Tesla Wall Connector is slow/trickle charging. Maybe you are talking about DC charging, which has some impact, but is largely not worth…

The v2 Wall Connectors (at least one revision of them) had some dip switches that could decide whether it was Tesla-only or universal. The…

See my response to this post - he is incorrect. A new Tesla UMC will work fine with any EV.

You are incorrect, or at least years out of date. The Gen 3 Tesla Wall Connector and the Current-gen UMC (both having been available for at…

No worries. The EVSE is basically just a fancy switch. It doesn’t ‘do’ anything to the electricity coming out of the wall, it just…

Once upon a time I had an Anet A8. Tons of fun tinkering with it, but ultimately it was too much of a time sink, and when my kids came…

Are you talking about an installation quote you have received? What exactly are they quoting? It sounds like they might be quoting on…

You need something to plug the cable into - which is what this product is. The 32A cable alone will be useless. Typically those cables are…

You can buy 'solar aware' chargers, that will monitor your excess solar and restrict the cars charging limit to that amount to avoid…

Can the Zappi dynamically change the current based on household usage? I know it can change based on Solar output, but didn't think it…

That’s not accurate from my experience. Small items get shipped using auspost or courier. Large items (eg timber) do get delivered by Ute…

2024 model 3 was at the peak of its refresh. Of course it’s not as popular a year later.

To play devils advocate, did you watch the ‘salute’ with audio? I can’t stand the man. He is a disgusting human being. However I’m…

The refreshed 3 was being delivered to the first customers in late 23 early 24. That would have been a spike in sales (products typically…

To be expected as their top seller, the Model Y, is in-between models. No one is buying the old model as they are waiting for the new one.…

Strongly agree. Been wiping babies for 5 years now and your order is correct. Huggies > Curash > Johnson's. That said, if the price is…

These are a slightly cheaper option:…

But you lived with that (potentially life-risking) bug while you waited for your next service (weeks or months) and you probably didn't…

Not sure what tyres have to do with software. How about this software issue with your RAV4?…

I'm asking which EV you had and got rid of? You did have an EV right? With such strong opinions I'm assuming you daily'd one for some time…

What did you dislike about your EV that made you go back to a petrol car?
