  1. I think you will find the owner of the bank account is an unsuspecting money mule. He/she probably replied to one of those adverts, asking people to respond and earn money by processing inputs and outputs, etc. etc. The scammer probably got 90% of your funds within minutes of you sending it.
  2. So AESO failed to plan for a cold snap, nothing to do with EV's, or as much to do with EV's as "lights and appliances, minimizing use of electric space heaters, avoid cooking with a stove, and delaying plugging in electric vehicles or block heaters." Similar issues in other parts of the world? no link given Regarding 2nd hand value, this link cars in the UK are typically valued at between 40% and 60% of initial price after 3 years, the telegraph appears to be saying that EV's are right in the middle of normality. Car Depreciation - UK Market Guide (2024 Update) | Motorway Don't believe sensationalist headlines, always look deeper.
  3. Not left wing. The UK NHS was founded following a cross party report of all political parties, both left & right.
  4. What you really want is a trust, unfortunately, it doesn't exist in Thai law. However, there is something similar, it's called "controller of property". You need to talk to a lawyer about "controller of property" until the girl reaches adulthood, 20 years old in Thailand.
  5. Do you mean the compulsory contributions towards my pension I have been paying into all my working life? Or the compulsory National Insurance contributions I have made to fund the National Health Service?
  6. In my country, left is associated with socialism, that's definitely not me.
  7. Pretty loaded choice of headline +1 for the battery factory I wonder what the power authorities when they say they will continue to burn coal in the near term before they transition to something else? what does near term mean?
  8. I read somewhere it was around $115k in China, that may have been the top model.
  9. Tesla dropping prices in Europe & China again. New registrations down 9% in Germany. Increased Chinese competition cited. Tesla slashes Model Y prices in Europe after China price cuts (msn.com)
  10. What do you mean by left? Nobody has ever accused me of being "from the left"
  11. You are an absolute horror of a human being.
  12. We are talking about the problems with EV’s, not registrations in December.
  13. Well that is a glaring omission
  14. It's not reasonable to ask for new panels. If you had first class insurance you wouldn't be able to dictate that either.
  15. Is there a voice command to restore the seat to the memory position one or two? It’s a PITA having to wade through menus to get to it.
  16. Assuming your Honda has a 100AHr battery, then it contains 1.2KwHr of power, typically an EV has 50-70 times that capacity and will last a very long time supplying power to your house to run air conditioning etc.
  17. Lead Acid batteries are weaker in the cold too, and the oil in the engine is thicker, it takes more energy to turn over an ICE vehicle in the cold.. The problem reported in Chicago is user error. Tesla's won't charge if too cold, they all know this. Tesla provides an option in the car to precondition (heat) the battery. Preconditioning uses the batteries energy and the problem is people are running down the battery to a point where there is not enough energy left to precondition it. I don't have a Tesla, but I'd be surprised if they don't tell people what amount of charge they need to leave in the battery if they want to precondition it. Norway is a cold country. 83% of all new vehicles bought are EV's and they don't have this problem. It says more about American Tesla owners than it does about EV's.
  18. It's a well spec'd device.
  19. Ues, perfect, that's exactly what I am looking for, I may well install it then.
  20. Yep, that's going to be a real problem here in Thailand. We must not forget to precondition our cars before arriving at the charging station in sub-zero temperatures.
  21. I wasn't planning on unboxing my ABB wallbox, do you know if it has the ability to set the charge rate? i.e. derate to 16 amp,24 amp etc
  22. PPF needs removing before 8 years. It slowly goes yellow and the glue can crystallize and permanently bond and then you need to repaint. It probably depends on whether it is left on the sun, I would replace it at 6 years.
  23. You share your views with Putin
  24. Who said I was gay? I never did. One doesn't need to be gay to be ashamed of belonging to the same species as you. I bet you wish I was gay though, don't you? Methinks you doth protest too much sir.
