Yes - ask your utility provider. Mine is psegli. Also solar companies give detailed quotes.

I liked the look they just are too inefficient compared to panels.

Hey - NY. The rate plan I have is no longer available according to my bro (they grandfather plans here). Psegli. I will say when I have eyeballed NJ incentives they look generous. The plan I have is 3 different rates. Peak (4-7 pm) pays out 4:1 compared to overnight. I was also...

The bagel place was Fairmont bagles. The gnocchi place is almost next door. The Ukrainian place is like 150 feet up the road. Ice cream everywhere. I forget the noodle place name but I think it was the only hand pulled noodle shop in china town. Also in china town was a Vietnamese...

Did a quick trip to Montreal and headed home. Highly recommend. Side note: the exchange rate is favorable right now (we just got lucky with that). About 800 miles. Fuel cost of $115 - high speed charge up and down and a top off at hotel L2. The Rivian charger in Queensbury is perfecto...

So happy to hear this! Congrats!

Beautiful! What is the mushroom you ate and what is the red one? Is red one edible? Disclaimer: no one should eat based on what they see on a ski blog. When we did a csa share asparagus was a big one for our orgo farmer. Apparently they are one of the few things that can put pace weeds at...

Camp we covered this - any environmental impact is caught up in the first 18,000 miles compared to an ice. Only blowing will be dust, snow, mud and sand. Unless you live in a dirty electric state like West Virginia. I ll give you another 6000 miles for my solar panels that pump...

I know we bogleheads hate leasing but these seems like maybe the right time and place as it is really a short term option on a car. I have never leased but my biggest change was city to burbs.

Also Harv if you lease for 2-3 years (which may be good option with lots of life change for you - you don’t quite know what you want) there will be a big world of evs say even that no frills small truck co backed by bezos.

They plan a mass version like a model y with suv for launch next year. I hear a used launch edition will sell for 55-60k. Could be a good deal. As camp has noted ev s have not tended to hold resale value like say a Honda (sold mine in 15 years later for 40 percent of purchase price). Happy...

I pull up to my garage and pull back some of the electric I send into the grid to fuel my vehicle. I drive a fair bit. 90 percent is still within range of a slow charger. Yes they need to figure that out for cities but they don’t need as many cars per capita in cities.

I think he views it as too much risk - he has to explain that to anaylysts/market and talent and board. I think you’re right.

Hey not a dumb question. I am guessing in one spot your plugged into a level 2 charger (j). The other chargepoint was probably a CCS which cranks out lots of juice and is really only for straight evs. Open your chargepoint app and filter level 2 vs 3. It sounds like you have a hybrid...

I don't think there is an original post. Jason, FRK, and SlowPoke know cuz we have a group chat going. I was skiing with Jason and on a random flat spot fell forward and heard a crack. That was January 13. Thank goodness Jason was there (not exactly there when it happened) he gave me some...
