Cyberster : AC or heating ?

[Clem]

Hi everybody,

as a new owner of a Cyberster Trophy, I am wondering how to best use the climate control, especially for heating.
If I am using the A/C for heating, will it use the compressor as a heat pump? Is it more efficient than heating without A/C (using resistor I guess in this case)?

Do you also have a bit more information about what the ECO mode is doing?

Unfortunately, the owner manuel is far from being precise to get this kind of information.

The Cyberster doesn’t have a heat pump so all heating energy will come from the resistive heating.

For max efficiency turn on your heated seats and wheel and leave the rest off, but if you are driving normally just use the car as you usually would and understand you’ll get a lot less range (both due to battery chemistry and cabin heating) in the winter.
