    Charging Issues

    What is the best and safest way to join the cables in the junction box? The original installation had cables terminated with ferrules joined and crimped in bullet connectors. Do I use this method again or can I use block connectors with appropriate current rating?

    Charger notice/sign

    I've just signed up. Better than nothing, it's free to use and no personnel info given out. Hope to see more people using this or similar. Maybe we could get some MG tax disc holders?

    If your coming up the A38 from Cornwall or leaving the M5 for Devon try Paignton Lidl or Premier Inn both near each other off Brixham Road hardly ever seem to be in use for long.

    Energy Provider Recommendation

    Have had a look at Octopus but currently they are deterring new customers and recommending to stay with current provider. Not sure to go with their new fixed rate or chance it with a variable. In response to Alb the meter is not sending a reading to E-On or connecting to my usage monitor...

    Energy Provider Recommendation

    Have just received notice that my energy tariff is due to change in June. I'm currently with E-On and have had issue with their Smart Meters with the 3rd now going dumb. We also had to get the Ombudsman involved so to be honest would like to move. Can you recommend anyone who is EV friendly? I...

    Just add your vehicle in ABRP and hit "Link with ABRP OBD Connection"

    Thanks for help. I now have it working fine. Final question using the Vgate adapter is can I leave it plugged in when the car is locked or charging without setting the alarm off? I was using an adapter (can't remember which one) that set the alarm off. Not good at 11:30pm

    Lane Keep Assist
