    CCU gets very warm when charging.

    I think every one has the wrong idea .. This CCU is getting warm while changing and the car is off. Nothing is running .. only the supply charger that's plugged in, which at the time was charging at 6 amps @240 volt for slow charging. I have a multi charger. 6,8,10 & 15 amps settings

    Battery range

    It gets cold here in Melbourne Australia... but what I did was I insulated the shed roof and painted the concrete floor in my shed. My car is now cool in summer and warm in winter. Solar panels on the shed roof helps with free power when changing too :P

    Space Saver tyre for MG ZS EV 2022

    PART 2 : Thanks for all the great views ... As for the pry bar coating I used 26mm wide heat shrink and a hot air gun. The prongs on the wheel cover (after being coated in surf board wax) are easy to get off. Getting them off for the first time is a worry, but the pry bar makes the job simple...
