Telstra-schmelstra :) I'm rural on starlink.

Haven't got anything yet. Is this update for everyone or for some chosen ones?

Me too.

No update for me yet.

Interesting. So you are underusing the battery. If you are consuming 30kWh/day of which only 7.7kWh are through the battery, then you are utilising solar really well. Sorry for all these questions :)

And how much of that goes through the powerwall?

Interesting. What is your daily electricity consumption?

Yes, and you probably have peak electricity for about 30c/kWh.

Agree about the second one, disagree about the first one. We have house running on electricity only and the peak price is 65c/kWh, yes, SA. Mine will pay back in 4-5 years + convenience. Note that it is not only 12.5kWh for night, it removes the external consumption completely during the day...

3 x Powerwall 2?..

Time to buy the second battery?

3984 km on the odometer. I've spent $34.4 total, which makes $0.87/100 km. As a matter of fact, I didn't even have to spend it. Trying to push myself out of the range anxiety :)

Unfortunately, the other reasonably priced option is to pay Chinese Communist Party, which I find a lot more unacceptable than to pay a rich American psychopath.

Yes, and this is another reason why, despite the car is absolutely fantastic, I'm not paying for lunacies and wishful thinkings of some rich American psychopath :)

There is some problem with the asymmetry. I find it very-very weird it wants to cross the centreline specifically in left curves, which is most dangerous because oncoming traffic cuts the curve and also crosses the centreline. Why nothing like this happening for the right curves?.. Also, if I...

I didn't know, thanks! Will do today.

Not convinced :) all the same, map to the left, car to the right. Shorter bar, good. But it is almost usable there. The only thing is the left curve.

Yes, also no difference for adaptive high beam, but I think it is allright as it is now, no one blinked at me yet and I always get back from work when it is already dark. Maybe they are just too scared to blink at me though... But this crossing double centreline is bad and dangerous, and I see...

Updated, tested. No big difference in UI, no difference at all for autosteer, it is still dangerous on narrow roads in left curves.

I've got an update message.

Nah... Those plug and socket connections will overlive most of the houses they are attached to. I put an $11 hook on the wall by the socket, looks good, matches the colour of everything :)

What is the benefit in installing a fixed wall charger, unless you have full 3 phase solar? I've installed 32A socket, bought the plug and UMC. This gives the same current as the wall charger, but I don't need to buy two devices.

Ah ok. I'm yet to try to use those, I have 32A socket.

How do you know you need a firmware update for UMC?

Don't. Just don't. :(

Things I still cannot get used to: - I still want to pull the trunk lid down. - I still want to pull the key out when leaving. - The most annoying: it asks to tap the brake pedal to switch to drive. I however would call it "fully depress the brake pedal and hold it there for three seconds"...

With South Australia the problem is it is not even worth opening a new thread, as nothing is going on with a single distributor and crazy prices... :(

Which one is that? OVO or AGL? I still have a few hundred bucks left in alinta - they have highest feed-in and lowest daily charge, but they don't refund it. So I'll have to be with them for a few more months and then move on.

Also, beware - ENGIE provides 6c/kW discount, not 6c/kW tariff.

Does anyone have any experience of switching to nightly 8c/kW EV plan in South Australia?

This. With the acceleration we have we can be anywhere in the crossing. However, the most dangerous thing is going back to ICE and trying to do the tricks with squeezing in or popping in front of :)

And haven't got any update notifications yet.

I have posts, not on 14 yet.

I changed my mobile plan to the one cheaper by $10 and added premium connectivity to the car. Surprisingly I have found that I don't need even the decreased amount of data in my mobile phone if my car has internet. Thinking about cancelling it completely - who needs that mobile phone if the car...

Well, I'm still getting greyouts in LR, so I'll pass :)))

Those headlights are just amazing, by the way :)

Also, do you get the same message about blocked or blinded pillar cameras while driving at night?

That one is fast, I think 200kW official. There is Type 2, but I don't know if it has a cable.

There are two RAA-Chargefox chargers in Mount Barker homemaker centre. Have you switched to an 8c/kW night plan? Does it work? I have some "money" in my alinta account from excess solar, and I need to use those first since they don't cash it out.

Tried to charge today from Chargefox fast charger. It is fast. However, it is useless and ridiculously expensive if 100km daily commute to work with free slow chargers is the only thing you do. I paid almost eight dollars for 12kW of electrons after paying absolutely nothing for almost a month...

2024.8.9 still crossing double centreline in steep left curve. However, braking in turns on cruise control seems much smoother.

That wasn't mine definitely :)

Have you seen an LR delivered within one month yet? My PTSD is asking.

Still, not exactly. There was heavy fine drizzle here, which she just ignored and I wasn't able to see anything.

I'm getting old too so I forget to charge my phone often... And then what?

Noticed that as well. Opening and closing it remotely also helps, no need to go out.

2024.8.7 - speedcameras are ok, albeit somewhat too small. She seems a bit softer in corners (I also recalibrated it), but I haven't checked that left corner when she decided to try to kill me and crossed the centreline.

Was it you driving towards Meadows this morning?

Interesting. Which software version do you have? I have 2024.2.7, and I really doubt it is a hardware feature.

But you can't fight that kind of persons with the cable length :)
