Its not every day you get to drive a £115,000 ($145,000) car around and in this video I decided to put it to the test. We live in a world of constantly charging all our devices, but can we go fully electric, and how easy is it to keep everything at 100% battery when you're not in a big city?
Make sure to check out the full video and a big thank you to everyone involved. Its a different type of review, but had loads of fun making it, even if I was locked away in a Shepards Hut for the night...

WHAT IS THIS CHANNEL ALL ABOUT?
I have zero interest in deep spec dives or long-winded comparisons. I review laptops, smartphones, tablets, headphones and the latest tech based on real experience. I'll tell you how it'll make you feel, whether or not it's worth your time (and money) and help you find the tech you need to get stuff done.
WHO AM I?
I'm a UK-based tech reviewer. Watch my videos to find the tech you need, without the jargon.

What's the one piece of tech that annoys you daily in terms of charging?
Only an Intel-based laptop I use besides my M1 MB. Of course, I don't have an electric car.
My Apple Watch, I got an Ultra which helps, but now the HR monitor doesnt work properly when running. I would happily have an AW with a mono LCD screen if the battery lasted longer.
Good gosh! I'm thankful just to be able to ride a pedal 365 days a year. My only charging hiccup has been to weed out all my old Micro-USB devices and take them to an e-waste centre. Even the rechargeable lights on my bikes are charged via USB-C. Oh! I still have a couple of Apple Lightning machines and a functioning 30-pin iPad. Thanks to your recommendations, I have sufficient charging bricks for any eventualities. Aloha.
This is me on every road trip (just substitute iPhone, Apple Watch and Telsa). The Telsa charging network is a great benefit. Brilliant video!
Glad you enjoyed it - thanks for the kind words!
Good vid, the Delorian shirt makes it to all videos
In 10 minutes you do get a lot of charge in a modern EV. Between 20 and 25% of the battery, which should give you close to 100 miles while you pee and get a coffee. Furthermore, your ordeal is more a demonstration of the poor state of charging spots in UK, if you were driving in the Netherlands or France, the situation would be significantly better.
I completely agree on all fronts.
Mark got an i5 that's phenomenal
Not quite sure about the EV hype, but each to their own. I guess because I live in an area of the USA where towns are great distances away and there are little to no charging stations in those towns, the barrier to entry is higher. But if you have a solar setup with batteries on/in your house, and you do most of your driving within a small radius of your house, then a reasonably-priced EV would make sense. I honestly would go for a hybrid myself so you get the best of both worlds.
Wouldn’t you have been able to keep the Apple Watch Ultra charged using the Benks charger?
Also, my cousin has an EV that charges as she drives. Why isn’t that the standard? (I know the answer’s probably money.)
Thanks, as always, for the content.
Hmm, would you rather run out of gas or electricity? I’m going to say gas 😂
Just buy a Tesla. The main - KEY - benefit is the charging network. Rarely need to queue. Rarely need to get stressed. Even in the Highlands of Scotland. UK charging network. Outside of the Tesla ecosystem is current,y a joke. No way would I buy a regular branded electric car, even a love,y BMW like the one tested.
Tesla test coming soon!
Tesla. Absolutely. I've had my Model 3 Long Range since August 2019. Have never worried about range. Totally agree with you that the Tesla Superchargers are quick and fuss free.. I'm a driving instructor using my Model 3 as a tuition car.
When are people going to realise electric cars are a dead end? It's not the solution.
Just a video that highlights the naffness of EVs topped off with staying in a shed! 🙂
Spot on.
Jesus, give me my 20 minutes back. Everything except cars are easy to keep charged. No shit Sherlock 🙄
We make shorter versions of these videos for people with short attention spans on TikTok - I think you'd like them.
I probably wouldn’t
Buy a petrol car & stop being silly with silly electric cars.
