Sat in by the window and started our brew. 10 minutes later a Kia EV pulled up, checked my charge and went and sat...

    Podpoint not charged car

    A couple of hours, but I’ve done that on previous charges with no problem On another forum someone has suggested you have to unschedule all the days and then reschedule every week, which seems bizarre

    Driving in ECO mode

    Couple of quick questions 1. I tend to drive mostly in ECO mode as it’s around towns - in the long term, is this going to cause any damage or issues later? 2. I read in the manual that you should not change driving mode whilst moving as this can distract the driver… assuming it doesn’t...

    Quick query about Gridserve

    Do you know I hadn’t noticed that … first time and all. Anyone know why it was so slow. I’m sure it was a 50kwh CCS charger. There was no one else charging at the same time…

    What’s the etiquette?

    Hello all. So I plan to charge my car at a motorway service station. If the charger is being used, and I park up to wait, how will I know if anyone else is waiting or is it just a case of race to the charger space??
