We have a mixture of Ubitricity and Char.gy as suppliers for the lamppost service, and for those 5kW points they adapted them without any road/pavement digging - just the adjacent parking spot itself ringed off whilst they worked there for a few hours. I typically get 37kWh in the overnight...

This is what I rely on. There are now 9+ on our street let alone the surrounding roads, and it means if I can't use either of the 2 posts dead outside then there are others in easy reach. Couldn't always park outside the house anyway whether in an EV or not, and IMO it shouldn't be expected...

Certainly looks like you're being reamed, to my novice eyes. I also can't have a home point and will/do rely solely on public services primarily via lamppost chargers and my Type 2 cable. My most recent charge cost me £10.77 for 37.15kWh whilst I was plugged in between midnight and 7am. If my...

How did you come to that conclusion? The posts I saw were someone being completely petty about another poster, whilst crying victim. Seemed perfectly reasonable for a mod to kick people into touch.

Worth a read: No more free electrons from Tesco's Have you a new thread quota to hit? :ROFLMAO:

"Dual Charging allows two vehicles to charge simultaneously from one EV charging unit. Of course, that unit must have two connectors and have suitable parking space, but the hope is that more people using the GRIDSERVE Electric Highway will now be able to charge their cars in less time and get...

Exactly this bolded bit here... the condescending tone alone is/was reason enough to close the other thread, irrespective of the subject matter. Ultimately it's easy to jog on to other forums if you don't like the discussion topics available 🤷‍♂️

Interesting, thanks. I appreciate it's frustrating for Vanarama customers, and they perhaps could've handled the situation better. But when I read the complaints on here I'm baffled as to how much leverage they think this lease company has. At the end of the day MG have more sales than they can...

We're mostly terraced here also... If the ability to lamppost charge wasn't an option, I honestly don't know if I'd have put in an order for an EV. It's not like I'd be able to rely on the local supermarkets as they either still have inadequate facilities, or none at all. Fingers crossed we get...

I know what you mean - when I walk through to the next road over, they have empty spaces galore but only 1 lamppost point :rolleyes: . Don't give up asking though! I think there were only 1 or 2 on ours to start with, and now there will be 7 - the council have been slow, but at least there is...

OK, well thankfully that's not the case for us here at least. We're not worried about Tesco bandits when it come to on-street charging - biggest hinderance is space.

How is people taking liberties with the free juice at Tesco relevant to the post about chargeable residential services?

The ignore function is a glorious thing ☀️

Char.gy will now have a night rate 🥳 . This news gives me a little hope as they've installed a couple on our street... I was really starting to debate whether or not it was still economically worth it to keep the car or sell it when it arrives. I know it likely won't stay this price, but it's...

Ubitricity have changed their pricing structure yet again:

Probably from the article linked below, although what they're talking about isn't the Marvel R, it's a replacement:

The Mk3 ZS isn't a facelift based on the last news we had... It'll be a new rendition on the MSP. Not quite sure what the last question was - did you mean whether MG will sell two SUV EVs? As far as I can see, the Marvel and the ZS are aimed at difference price points... I can't see MG not...

Yep, I have - let's just say it lacked a little welly :LOL:. I'd suck it up and use it though, if budget determined that to be the best option. With ever decreasing EV ownership incentives, an ICE car (even if not this one) is still turning out to be a competitive choice.

It's not that the suggested tax is particularly high, but it's these little additions to the cost overall. The advantage appears to really only be there based on circumstance, such as charging at home? In that case seemingly you can rake back the premium for buying an EV within a reasonable...

In fairness it is very easy to miss an existing thread when the title bears no relation the topic. I don't know if people are vague for entertainment value or what :LOL:
