Wait is this an old video?, aren’t you in Southeast Asia?
80 amp chargers need a 100 amp circuit. Many homes only have 100 amp service.
At home you do not need fast charging in 95% of the time as you plug it for the night like your cell phone. Buy a 30A supported power plug, share it with your dryer via special adapters if you want, it will be more than enough. My daughter got charge over 110V 15A all night for about 85KM or 50 miles. Enough to go to the next public chargers or her work.
Ironically enough, that is exactly what I did. I called around until I could find a place where I could charge my car at and I rented from them.
Niamh Harris - A UK study has found that electric vehicles EVs pollute at a far higher rate than their gasoline or diesel-based counterparts. The 2022 study by Emissions Analytics, an independent global emissions testing and research group, found that during a 1,000 mile journey, EVs release 1,850 times more pollutants ...
Good video and advice Alex. Thank you! Regards from Vancouver Canada.
That was just in Vancouver in January. Beautiful city. But you guys need to turn the heater on in January for those of us who come from hot countries 🙂
Surprised Tom didn't bring up the Porsche Wall Charger Connect. It's also an 80 amp charger and unlike the Porsche car itself, it is within the same price point as the Ford charger and Lucid charger.
You have countries like here in The Netherlands, where municipalities rule all aspects like it’s north korea, and they are against people parking on their own property, if it’s not in the planning/“steals” a parking spot on the street ( it’s now in the way of your would be driveway) I intend to move houses just have one of the few options with a spot to park. Let me tell you that charger selection is the least of my worries here
Look at Tom looking leaner and meaner ever day! Good on you!
Aptera preordered already! 😊
Phantom drains, alway-on connectivity, climate control while parked in hot or cold weather used about 30% of available power supply. At 80% I get about 220-240 miles on both our MYLRs.
Swapping the battery in cold weather might have issues with frozen grit, consisting of some road mock/mud mixed with frozen ice. The swapping station personnel will ask the EV owner to visit car washing place before being accepted for service.
You might want to do a video on Gogoro, a Taiwanese scooter company, They have battery swapping which is fast, efficient and safe. You can also take the battery into the apartment/ home to charge them. They are expanding into India and soon also in S.America.
Love my emporia
Itz good, itz nice.
California law allows an EV charger to be installed “within an owner's unit or in a designated parking space” or “at a parking space allocated for the lessee.”
Yes, but the landlords are not required to pay for it and tenants don't want to pay thousands of dollars for something that they will only be using for a short period of time and won't be able to take with them
@EforElectric probably wouldn't work for everybody I think I would have done it I stayed in my apartment 3 years, of course I would check the price first. I would settle for a 120 V Outlet, esp w/ my Alex's fav - chevy bolt ev
Wait - I thought you lived in Thailand, Alex. Probably the majority of people don't have charging at home as they live in an apartment or don't have driveway parking. We just did our first minor road trip in California in our Mach-e. I don't have the NACS adapter yet. It was painful trying to find a working DC fast charger. I feel the pain. Going to Vegas from LA next week. That will be easier.
I do live in Thailand. But I don't understand what difference it makes
@@EforElectric I imagine Thailand has even less infrastructure than rural United States for charging.
I really want this guy to debate MGuy Australia.
Aptera with the solar roof? Is this a "dope" vehicle? Any thoughts?
Miss GoElectric just showed a lightpole charger that seems like a good design.
47 : 59 @ will you please say rectifier gd
Rectum fire
In 1992 California passed a law requiring that by the year 2000 10% of all cars sold in California must be electric. How did that work out 😂😂😂
missed ya alex
Where is the Grizzle manufactured?
Canada. I have one.
If you think lack of charging is going to affect landlords, you obviously aren't aware of the rental housing crunch we are in.
that answer was insane lmao
It is still in the best of interest of landlords to get the best tenants and the best tenants usually are the ones who can afford the expensive electric cars. Also I own properties in three different states so as you can see your original assumption was uneducatedly stupid
@@EforElectricso your part of the reason why the housing market is how it is
@@EforElectricWow, what a way to talk to a viewer... Good luck with that attitude, maybe some people will like it.
What an arrogant answer. I'm struggling to find any apartment, let alone one with a charger that will charge a premium. You have no idea of the reality making those kind of statements
Is this not a video of +1year ago? Last week's was also a rehash, hope everything is OK and that we'll see some new content soon.
These are compilation videos
I am taking a couple of months off but I still have to feed the UA-camr algorithm
If you are charging at home, wouldn't the slowest charge be the best for your batteries?
not if its too slow.level 2 is ideal.
Trickle Chargin overnight 120 v best
Uh uh it’s not
@@sparkysho-ze7nm not necessarily.. in cold or hot weather the thermo management for your battery has to work longer while charging the longer it takes you charge. That might shorten the component lifespan.
Filling up your ICE vehicle: No expert advice needed.
It's very important to understand the capacity of the electrical installation in your house or even the grid transformer providing service to your community. Depending on the limits of your distribution panel and breakers and wire size the 80 amp charge box may not work. If modifications are necessary to your electrical panel it could also get very expensive. In some cases (Thailand) the grid providor (PEA) in many cases has a program that allows for a second TOU Time Of Use meter for the express purpose of charging an EV ONLY. This allows for off peak rates just for your EV. It's about 7.5 cents per kwh from 10pm to 9am. Very good value.
Battery swap is a horrible idea. Almost as bad a hydrogen. Love my Tesla wall connector.
Your statement means nothing since you 've attached no reasoning to it. This is something that I stopped doing when I turned 7.
@@EforElectric Your comments are aseholeish. Not sure how you have as many subs as you do. One less now. Cya
Melong has no clou what’s happening in the real world . Just rent somewhere else. There is choices in housing.
How is Thailand 🇹🇭 life ?
Amazing
Leaving California? But that was a while ago, right? Did you go back to California? Or is a video from back then?
Good 2 see u MR E. How is life as a passport bro over there? U have been living in Thailand like more than a year .Did u come back to U.S? Your videos are confusing people ..Is your UA-cam channel been hijacked? You are editing old videos and up loading them like they are new videos.
@@Area51-is6vg it isn't so bad if he explains that the interview happened last year, then we wouldn't be so confused. The information is worth repeating, but lots of his comments during the interview are related to his situation, like to which car he WAS driving back then.
Electric cars is a scam 😒
5:41 why Okland California? out of all places... 🤌 i saw from tuber how much crime and junkies there are... 😲
