@cjb_twit Potentially it's a secondhand purchase and they don't have the app allocated with a card. That means supercharging is disabled until Tesla switch it over from the old owners.

This really is how it should be. This particular Supercharger was heavily used by non-Tesla vehicles. You can see why.

There are no more sleeps left!! I am heading down to London today as a treat before @Everyth1ngElec tomorrow. I find it staggering that just by sharing my thoughts and ideas on electrifying my home and family life i've met so many lovely people. It's a complete pleasure to be at a big event where everyone seems to be on the same page. There does need to be urgent solutions and as an individual you can feel you can't personally make a difference but you can. We are all part of the solution and even though just looking at your own home may seem pointless as a collective it matters. If nothing else you've had a go and helping to find an answer. Plus at Fully Charged there's always lots of freebies for the geeks who like branded stuff. 🤣

Let's add some balance to this misleading post from James.... There's no getting away from the fact, this is horrific For this reason cobalt usage in EV's is being phased out with the implementation of LFP and Sodium-Ion batteries. Cobalt has been used in the desulphurisation of fossil fuels since 2006, 17 years. But we never heard about child exploitation then 🤔 Cobalt makes up a quarter of its global requirement, so the headline could read very differently, but clearly has an agenda. Battery manufacturers employ safe working standards. Tesla in particular are very careful about this. Read here electrek.co/2022/05/09/tes… In the UK here are the costs on the NHS of running an ICE vehicle compared to an EV. I'd imagine this is similar worldwide. Average cost to the NHS and society of a car is £7,714 The health damage cost from diesel cars is £16,424 and vans £24,555 Battery electric cars and vans are as little as £827 and £1,443 – the lowest cost Petrol damage costs are £2,327 and £10,101 for cars and vans, respectively Petrol hybrids cars have a damage cost of £1,824 Nearly 90% of the total £6 billion bill caused by emissions to the NHS and wider society comes from the impact of diesel emissions Link here - bath.ac.uk/announcements/… Remember folks, don't let the facts get in the way of a good story, and don't take everything on face value....

This is UK crazy electricity regulation… Scotland generates so much electricity we turn off the turbines when it’s windy (instead of Scots getting cheap/free power). Meanwhile they pay highest standing charges because the monopolies have long wires. We really do need huge reform
Spike@Spikebmth

@HullTeslaModel3 Wow... the south is cheaper for standing charge!

@tomasmcguinness Have often wondered the same. Maybe there is value in providing advice for some "standard" offerings like "How to automate your lights" or "How to charge your battery according to solar forecast" Seems theres a need for a multiuser management platform- like HA Corporate edition!

I often wondered if there is a business in giving advice to people interested in the DIY smart home or are the target audience the sort that figure it out for themselves?

@sparkymark1975 Or we find a way to bill smart meter data when there’s no DCC connection…🤔

We've just finished our feasibility study into using smart meters to report data and manage flexibility which relies on CPA security - more here: octopus.energy/blog/innovatio…. If we get the go ahead from BEIS we'll be creating and testing this from April.
