Yeah, maybe. But, I wasn't planning on spending the night...

Hey Tim/Earl, If we can figure this out, I might come up. But, as you guys already know it will take a lot of coordination. I've got OVMS so I can monitor my charging remotely. Would like to try and make it, but the trouble might be more hassle than it is worth. Henry

Hi Greg, Thanks for the info and the analogy (what movie was it from where the character would say "Explain it to me so a 2yo could understand it"? )

With the weather getting better, I've been thinking about driving the Roadster again. But currently still in storage. I've got a couple more questions... - When in storage, is it better to have it plugged into my 240V or 120V charger? - I did swap over to the 120V last week just to test and...

Thanks eHorses... not sure what you mean in your second sentence.

I'm going to re-hash this to see if any opinions have changed over the last few years... My son is going off to college so a few things are going to change... - We need to save more to offset the college cost - Going to mothball the Roadster and drive his BMW Z4. - Remove the Roadster from...

Thanks for the help guys. Probably won't be able to make the 9/16 track day, but might shoot for 10/21... will let you guys know how it goes if i make it.

I've had my Roadster for 4 years now and admittedly, have only charged at home at 240V and on the road using generic J1772 setups. There is a track day at Buttonwillow that I was thinking about going to, but realistically, if I drive the Roadster there, I'd have to charge along the way and...

That's better...

I guess prices have softened...
