    Plastic pollution from tires

    Great article today from National Geographic on the environmental impact of car and truck tires. Since it seems that some Teslas have accelerated end of life tires (due to driving behavior and other factors) this might be something to consider in the overall impacts positive/negative of electric...

    Hidden Tesla wall connector - photos

    Just installed my second wall connector. This one at my house in Tempe. Decided to run 60A through the ceiling and drop it down inside the wall to a cabinet in the garage. Makes for a very clean install. I left 100A wire in the ceiling in case Tesla cars in the future can handle more power on...

    EV Week - Prescott, AZ

    Attended (and displayed my stealth M3P) at the National EV Week display at the Courthouse Square today where there were more Teslas than places to park and display. It was interesting to check out the i-Pace, electric Smart and a smattering of Chevy cars. The most interesting and attention...

    Wickenburg, Arizona SC

    Did the twisty, steep drive from Prescott to Wickenburg again today... Time for another egg salad sandwich fix at Nana's Sandwich Saloon. As always, a quick SuperCharge top-up for the climb back to Prescott. Hwy 89 is an incredible drive if you like dozens of challenging turns on mountainous...

    Wall Charger hell

    Just installed a Tesla Wall Charger with 100A 250V circuit. I set the rotary switch to "D" and I'm only getting 48A at the car. I left the DIP switch to Down and UP. Any ideas why I'm not getting 80A at the car? Is it the DIP switch?
