Fit a Zombie Inverter board and you can program in what ever you want ..... but forget about any warranty .... the factory is a tad touchy about these things ;) :LOL: My MG4 51 is speed limited to 160km/h, that's 50km/h above any legal road speed in Australia I believe (maybe NT still has the...

The concern regarding the 12v battery health stems from post #23 The dashboard was showing 14v before I parked the car and the app said 12.5v after it was parked and locked. Which is fine. The question is, will it stay fine until Monday if it isn't topped up from the traction battery? If a 12v...

The dummy is easy to identify, right hand lower photo, but who are the others? T1 Terry

Wow, I'm still alive and still married for the moment. We have looked at a lot of houses, all ludicrously over price for what they are and every one is a real estate agency staged photo shoot, we have a game at the moment of spot the repeat piece of furniture :rolleyes: even some of the floor...

The system only needs 12vdc to switch on, a battery built out of torch cells would work, just don't try to turn the steering until the car wakes up, that drags a lot out of the battery. Would there be anyone with a car close by you could get a jump start from? T1 Terry

The portable CCS unit we bought can be dialled from 6 amps to 16 amps ..... the 16 amps works if that is the only thing on a 15 amp wired circuit from power box to socket because the circuit breaker is actually 16 amps not 15 amps. That gives a charge rate at the plug of roughly 3.6kw, the...

Now you have my attention, with no oil that needs checking, it only gets opened to refill the windscreen washer bottle, but the boot is so close and handy :LOL: Where do I buy a Frunk for my MG4? Pity they don't make one for a Gen 2 Prius, but it has that needy ICE stored in there ..... T1 Terry

Are you saying that motorcyclists over your way use indicators? Not just lean the head that way if they are feeling traffic friendly? Most motorcyclists over here feel mirrors are a carryover from a bygone day ..... having owned a few Norton Commando 750s, they certainly weren't for look behind...

You missed whinging pom, Karens and 1st world problem panic merchants .... maybe you are just having a bad day ...... Is a village just an abbreviation of a village idiot, or just the general reference to every village has one village idiot ...... rather nasty don't you think? T1 Terry T1 Terry

Just did a GBP to AUD comparison and 1 cent = about 1/2p, so even our expensive chargers are only 65p in your money .... and we complain bitterly :LOL: T1 Terry

They might be ultra rapid over there, they are just DC fast chargers over here, an ultra rapid is 350kW. Our motoring body, RAA in South Australia but each state has it's own alphabet name) CCS slow chargers are 7kW up to 22kW and between 37c/kWh peak (5pm to 10pm) and 30c/kWh any other time...

That article is rather dated, 6 mths is a long time in EV battery development ... CATL are already in full production with their 2nd generation Na+ and are building battery pack now for EV that will be released by the end of this yr or early next yr. Most already know about the new Chinese EV...

The fastest rapid chargers (150kW or more) are more on major highays because people get impatient waiting for a charge .... and that is the sort of driving where you are likely to take the battery down to 10% or less ..... these are a lot more expensive per kwh than the smaller chargers ... If...

With our Motorhome, we used this stuff...

Crickeys ..... how long did it take to get the hang of using indicators again ;) :LOL: T1 Terry
