I found this app for a Mac that makes it easier to look through files - metadata included. Works for me. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/focus-dashcam-organizer/id1476008241

I had a similar issue last year in Washington State. ABRP had shown that I could easily get to my destination over a mountain pass that is closed often due to snow. The car navigation appeared to believe that same pass was closed when it had been open for a week and would not navigate or...

Stay the night in Conrad, MT? Super 8 Hotel 215 North Main Street Conrad, MT 59425 https://www.plugshare.com/location/88244

The coastal highway (California 1) is closed near Lucia, CA due to rock slides - US 101 is a northbound option from San Simeon to San Francisco. There are convenient destination chargers at Hearst Castle (Plugshare is very useful!). San Francisco to Las Vegas via Yosemite NP and Bishop (Death...

16 months with my M3LR - parked outside 24K miles - climate control on Auto 70 degrees at all times (use recirculate only when following a diesel vehicle or wildfire smoke). No odor from climate vents at all.

Last winter I experienced a couple supercharger sessions when the radiator fan ran at maximum speed as my charge limit was reached - but no airflow through radiator opening (below front bumper). I could see that the active shutter was closed while the fan ran like a jet engine. It was cold out...

I did part of this same trip last August in reverse. Idaho Falls to West Yellowstone (to destination charger at Grey Wolf Inn) via Jackson Hole entering Yellowstone NP from the south. 235 miles easy with 80% charge M3LR. 80% daily was also plenty for two days driving all around the park. The...

Who would have thought that Alaska Ferry reliability would be more of a worry than finding chargers?!? I want to do a similar trip next year - but ferry up to Whittier from Bellingham to start. So sorry for the abrupt ending of your trip.

I stayed at a Marriott chain hotel in Durango Colorado in April - they had several Chargepoint L2 chargers which required either a Chargepoint account or your room key to activate charger - no charge if you were staying there. Seemed to me a good way to encourage people with EVs to stay there...

I use the Shell Recharge app here in Seattle regularly (no home charging) - they have the lowest DCFC rate around ($.22/KWh evenings and all day Sunday). There are several former greenlots sites that Shell Recharge took over here which have been reliable enough. I never tried anything other than...

All construction seems finished and fencing moved to a corner of lot (waiting for removal?), Only thing missing is the transformer. As of yesterday (May 12) afternoon.

Isn't Nebraska one of those states that does not allow billing by kWh? I looked at my charging invoices when I traveled through there last summer and they also all had billing by time. It appears to me that Tesla is listing billing rates that reflect the $/kWh as the charge rate ramps down. One...

I used the Tukwila SC last weekend and middle of the day rate was $.35/kWh - late night was $.17/kWh. a change from $.31/kWh at all hours in December. It looks like similar changes to all puget sound SC.

I see that behavior regularly when the battery is being preconditioned for supercharging.

Nearly $.20/ kWh less for peak times here in Seattle area.
