  • They’re all just as shit. I broke a glass jar last time one of them broke on me.

    On a related note, one of my endless todo items is to figure out a decent way to store them in the back of the car. My thought atm is to get some sort of flat, wide elastic strap and secure it to a corner of the boot, and then just kind of mush them all together in the elastic strap.

    I’ve tried the car boot organisers. Their shit.











  • Hmm as an owner of a couple of EV’s, I’ve not seen the deals where electricity retailers offer this. I wonder if I’m missing out on something here.

    My electricity bills have definitely gone up (over the winter as per usual). However, with roughly 5kw of solar and DST kicking in soon, I’ll be able to charge the cars almost solely from solar.

    Cars with larger batteries will benefit from being able to do run around during the week and charge from solar during the weekend. Edit: I’ll note that for me (in Vic) it is still vastly cheaper to charge from solar than to feed the solar back into the grid.

    Also, the tax concessions only seem to apply to these when buying new and also when doing them via leasing / ie as a company supplied vehicle. Please correct me if I’m wrong here.
