The MacMaster... oh, my Word, I didn't know about him until your post, Rolfe. Now I've just watched a few minutes of one his anti-EV rants, and I shall never be able to get rid of his awful Channel from my mind! I feel sorry for his neighbours, can you imagine having to listen to his tedious drivel?
Yes, the more I investigate the local chargers, I should be fine...
Some of it's a bit addictive. You just can't wait to see what stunt he's going to pull next to make EV driving look like something only a demented lunatic would want to do - all the while swanning around the landscape in a Porsche Taycan. I can't quite decide my favourite.
When he pulled in to Southwaite (before the extra chargers were added) rather than go on to the Ionitys at Carlisle.
When he drove straight past the Tesla superchargers at Inverness to martyr himself in the pouring rain on a 50 Kw charger at Skiach.
When he was adamant he was going to get from JoG to Perth on one charge, despite not having been able to get from Perth to JoG the previous day - and drove past the Aviemore superchargers.
When he gallantly refused to use a charger overnight at Killington Lake in case someone else might want it (there is a type 2 plug).
When he spent a couple of hours trying to charge at 38 Kw when there was a 350 Kw charger just 14 miles away (and he had the range to get there).
But really, the prize goes to the time when he
Decided to charge at Great Yarmouth rather than go on to Lowestoft where he was staying the night (and where there were 300 Kw chargers very near his hotel), and went, apparently at random, to an Osprey site that was so new it hadn't been turned on, and declared that all the chargers were out of order.
That's ignoring the times he parks the wrong way round to the charger, or too far from it, and declares that the connector cable won't reach. Or the times he has gone to an AC charger declaring that there was nothing else available. Or his constant habit of waiting with increasing impatience and frustration for the Taycan to get to 100%, when his next charging stop could be reached from 70%. And so on.
Most of his viewers don't realise that the Taycan has a satnav nearly as good as a Tesla, and can identify the best, fastest chargers and navigate him there without him having to do anything but steer the bloody thing following the wee line on the screen.
