    10 New DC chargers at Sainsbury's Kings Lynn

    * 10 New DC chargers at Sainsbury's Kings Lynn Yay! * 4 FREE pod point chargers removed Boo! Mind you I probably spent more on coffee/breakfast in their cafe than I saved on my 'free' charge. I've not checked the price they are charging yet though. Update It seems they charge a flat rate of...

    475 mile trip - all good

    Just got back from a visit to North York Moors, did a total of 475 mile over 4 days with no issues. On the way there I charged at MFG Pickering, no problems took a few days to clear the £40 hold, didn't need to stop there as the chargers in Pickering had been upgraded to 75kW - zap map still had...

    What Car summer efficiency test on YouTube

    Just watched the above, first released a couple of weeks ago. Interestingly the MG4 LR was only beaten by Tesla in miles/kWh at 4.1 vs 4.3 and 4.7. Coincidentally my accumulated average is 4.1 too.

    Another EV advantage

    We went to an event in Sheringham yesterday and the town was rammed full of visitors. Having joined the procession driving round two car parks to no avail, and about to leave the third I spotted 6 EV charging spaces with only one occupied, result! The four hour limit was a little restricting but...

    V4 Supercharger + MG4 works great

    Just grabbed a quick 66-80% top up at one of the new Tesla V4s. Paid using ApplePay, took around 9 minutes and cost £4.50, easy-peasy.

    1st 100% charge.

    I gave my Trophy its first 100% charge today before heading out for the day. It reached 100% and showed 271 miles range, then carried on drawing 2Kw without increasing the range for about 20 minutes, then showed 0.0 Kw but still showed status as charging. As I was heading out I stopped the...

    Electroverse and Ionity

    Today, in my quest to try as many different charger/RF card/app types I called in at Peterborough A1(M) to try an Ionity. My Electroverse card wasn't recognised, its not contactless but the Ionity app worked fine and I paid via ApplePay. Anyone else had issues with Electroverse? I was pleased to...

    Home Wallbox query

    I'm currently trying to decide on whether and what home charger to go for. I think it is probably worth the cost for the convenience it should give me in the winter, despite the 3-5 years payback period. I currently use granny/solar for most of my charging, in 2 months my 1800+ miles has cost...

    3 weeks and 1k miles so far

    Really enjoying driving my MG4 trophy, so much so I look for excuses to get out in it. Lifetime consumption over the 1K has been 4 miles per kWh. Mostly home charged on the granny lead with sunshine but I've tried a few public chargers partly to prepare myself for a trip to North York Moors...

    Public charging in Milton Keynes

    or more specifically close to Snozone. I thought I'd try one of my longer 'normal' trips yesterday and have a couple of hours on the slopes. It's around 180 mile round trip, although the 'electric' route is around 160. I arrived a bit early so I decided to hunt out some public chargers, the...

    Shout out for EV Extras

    Shout out for Peter at EV Extras, in my excitement I ordered the wrong length type 2 cable, it arrived the day before I picked up my car. When I realised I contacted them and ordered the correct length. I was emailed a post paid returns label and I was refunded on receipt of the returned cable...
