    Charging during storm,and Tesla London Gatwick

    Thank you for your replies.... I actually found the Tesla chargers.... public Tesla chargers within a Tesla showroom!! Another Tesla driver was charging up... this was around 2.30am..... and was amazed that my car would change on what he thought were exclusive Tesla chargers!! Storm was far...

    Bad satnav worse than no satnav

    Well I used it for the first yesterday....very a.m...... The word 'via' didn't feature.... at least it didn't because I haven't found it yet. You start with the furthest destination, then add the next'destination closest to your actual destination It worked.... but for Petetsfield, it took me...

    Bad satnav worse than no satnav

    Am I the only person who quite likes the MG Sat Nav?? Programed a destination, plus the others en route to ensure it takes me the route I want. Seems to work just fine!!

    Charging during storm,and Tesla London Gatwick

    Good evening everyone, Off to APH Gatwick car park soon., ready for early morning flight. Couple of questions..... 1) There are storms around Gatwick around the time I'm due to the car park. I was thinking of going the charge up before getting into the car park. It's it safe to do so if a...

    Balancing an LR Trophy

    I'm getting much the same range... almost identical. I'm waiting for the temperature to rise significantly which should bring the range up. I'm not expecting it to go much beyond 250 though.....

    Balancing an LR Trophy

    Which means that is probably done that already on the two times I charged the vehicle to 100% from less than 10%?? Sounds as though I may have done the balancing without realising it.....🙈🙈

    Balancing an LR Trophy

    Most helpful.... If I do manage to programme via the car's controls, did the car automatically balance at the end after say a 95% 'top up'... If I can get my cheaper rate by programming the charge via the MG, I'll be laughing.... Otherwise, I'll do the Ohme boost suggestion.

    Balancing an LR Trophy

    This is most helpful, and raises the next question. So far, my Ohme charger is in full control, and I'm assuming cuts power either at what I've programed it to, or when it reaches 100% What car settings are there for balancing, specifically? In this instance, if be isolating any Ohme...

    Balancing an LR Trophy

    So if I were to charge it on my house charger to 90% say, then plug in my snail charger and leave it charging beyond the the 100%, that should do it? How do you know when the balancing is complete?

    Balancing an LR Trophy

    Feel the need for a little clarification on this, as the word 'balancing' had now tested its head in a few threads I've watched...... Until now, I've not known about balancing.... Not discussed at all during the purchase process. So in a nutshell, what is the correct procedure to achieve...

    Highest Average Somehow....

    AC was on automatic for most of the journey, but wasn't canning it. I did turn it off for the last half hour of the run to the chargers. Wipers and lights were on...wipers slow intermittent. Road was wet.... loads of spray in the earlier part of this leg of travel. Speed was initially 65, and...

    Highest Average Somehow....

    It's possible - difficult for me to remember, as I don't know the area at all. All I can say is that the roads were B roads - certainly not A roads - single lane - winding in places - max speed around 50 on longer bits. What I dont' understand is that I was quite perky on the accelerator -...

    Range Angst..... not in this cab.....

    Arrived at my planned charging spot on 9%..... its gone up to 10% only cos I started the charging process veggie taking the photo.... Whilst I had every confidence that I'd make my charge destination, I did wonder what would happen after 10% mesh had been passed and on into single figures...
