    News: Slate exploring different battery supplier. SUV kit price to be $5000 range

    Eh, Started the week with both at about 90%. Thursday wife was down to 54 myself to 60ish. She charged Thursday to 90 and I did Friday night from 59 to 100 as she wanted to take my car on a trip Saturday. Trips canceled so we will use the top of the battery this weekend running to get it...

    Simple low-tech audio ideas

    Wondering if fully wave 76inch antenna would be that much worse than a 1/4 wave 19inch........Not a ham so this is about as deep as I can get into RF and matching etc....

    Plan Slate road trips with ABRP

    Just to add visuals. 2 trips to visit USS Laffey, One small battery the other large. I find ABRP to be very accurate in its estimates and use it for trip planning. This is my settings, Using Tesla with Adapter, Avoiding AE at all cost. The only stops I would change are the ones in...

    Simple low-tech audio ideas

    Well as this will be for a 26/27 vehicle I may go old school with this for my head unit. A 25 vintage https://www.crutchfield.com/p_158XAV3200/Sony-XAV-AX3200.html But I could just use one of these for the antenna, should work well enough...

    News: Slate exploring different battery supplier. SUV kit price to be $5000 range

    Total capacity does make a difference on charge time due to charge curve. Took a 330 mile trip in our EV rated at 230ish miles per charge. Stopped twice for 20 to 30 minutes each stop to get back to 80% and the curve drop. Wanting to get to the destination with enough to tool around town and...

    Slate Overlanding Build preview by Lock Off-Road Wheels

    I get this creeping feeling a rear locker will not make the cut.. Would be great but.........Hope I am wrong.

    Will the Slate’s 8 seconds to 60 mph be adequate for safe highway merging?

    My MachE gets 5.2 seconds 0-60. Being an EV with no gears it feels faster than listening a ICE motor fight thru the gears for a similar time. With the torque the real limiter is traction vs weight not power. Now on the other hand I drive a Chevy Express van loaded to the gills with junk...

    Will you be installing a Level 2 charger?

    I would not bet on this is they are plan on keeping their $27k target. I would not be surprised if any charger at all would be an add on with a 120 and 220 and dual as three different price points and each having a nice margin for the company. Honestly, you only need to get chargers with...

    Will you be installing a Level 2 charger?

    I have this same charger, not hard wire but to an exterior 14-50 and only pushing 30amps. Has been flawless for a few years now.

    🔋 The Extended Battery Decision (Poll: Which battery option suits you best?)

    I do not agree with this. My current car has about 200 miles of range at fill, I charge it about once a week or when it goes below 100 miles. Having level 2 at the house is not like hitting the DCFC or gas pump. Funny thing is my wife has been driving an EV as well since 2021, she was...

    Canceling my reservation [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS]

    As an American worker and Union member tariffs help domestic production offset the advantages of lower labor costs in other nations. If you are upset you can not buy as much junk at Walmart that is of Foreign manufacture that is fine. Onshoring supply chains is a good thing because it means...

    Canceling my reservation [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS]

    On insurance, My 22 MachE got tagged in the rear at a stop light on the way to work. Guy was in a Jeep and took off and it was twilight so my photo of his tag did not turn out. No you can not enhance photos like in the cop shows.. Had to get a new fiberglass hatch, rear fascia etc pull...
