@EVPuzzle 44 here 😅 next up is the walls

With a public footpath passing in front of our home we often see people looking and sometimes hear the comments "that's a lot of solar panels" Yep , we’re lucky to have 31 panels in total How big is your array? Can it be too big?

@kev_kmf @OctopusEnergy I have won 800 once, so it is possible! 🤑

Thank you @OctopusEnergy for my usual 8pts on spin the wheel this month.

@thecyberfam %

Are you a "miles" person or a "%" person? * There is one correct answer

@EggrolI @ItsuOfficial what do you think about @heliograf_ 👀

This tiny soy sauce fish might be one of the smartest sustainability upgrades I’ve seen in packaging lately. It looks small, but the design thinking behind it is anything but. After five years of development, Heliograf created a soy sauce container made from sugarcane bagasse that breaks down in home compost in just 6 weeks. That means a familiar single use format now has a far better ending. What makes this so strong is that it keeps the fish shaped design people already know and the squeeze function they expect. But it improves the experience with a larger 12mL capacity, solving one of the biggest annoyances of the original plastic version. The smartest part is that this is not just a material swap. Restaurants can fill the soy sauce on site, which can mean fresher product and less transport related waste. That is what good sustainable packaging looks like. It does not only reduce harm, it improves the system and the user experience at the same time. Since 2020, Heliograf has reportedly helped eliminate over 32 tonnes of ocean plastic, or about 32 million plastic soy sauce fish. That is a reminder that real change often starts with the smallest overlooked object. The bigger lesson here is simple. Sustainability is not about sacrifice, it is about smarter design choices that make the product better from start to finish. If even the tiny soy sauce fish can be redesigned this well, imagine how many other everyday plastics are ready for a better answer. Follow Paking Duck for more packaging ideas like this.

@Simon_Ingari You just deleted your address book, not the addresses/houses themselves

Format a 16 GB USB drive. Open it. All files deleted. Take it to IT guy All 16 GB of files are restored. Where were they stored?

@SantoroSystems Whenever it’s told to as part of the test, it also liked to ‘rest’ for quite some time at 0% and 100%

Does anyone know when you do a Tesla battery pack health test, does it drain your battery and then charge back up based on your charging schedule? Or is it just whenever it's told based on the test? I want to run one, but I definitely don't want it to charge up during on peak

@A_MrBenMitchell @Tesla What if you turn the climate on?

Currently staying at a hotel on the motorway services. Two supercharger sites available, one north and one southbound. @tesla PLEASE let us precondition the battery remotely. It’s probably at 12° right now and when I plug it in later it’s going to have no time to warm up

@packamama Great news, which retailer?

Sometimes you’ve got to step out, move differently and enjoy the moment. That’s how real change happens. Not by blending in, but by standing out and showing there’s another way to do things. 🍷♻️

@JeremyClarkson Hey @elonmusk what are your thoughts?

I wonder perhaps if maybe they could also look into the enormous weight of electric cars.

@JeremyClarkson Who’s paying you for these lies Jeremy? Used to enjoy your shows but now I am left wondering what’s your agenda

@Oeko_Nom Hey @nikitabier loving the auto language translation, next feature request please, auto translation of text in images 😅

Das selbstbewusste Halbwissen im Standard-Forum. Wenn man schon einen sehr effizienten Diesel (5l Verbrauch) annimmt, muss man den auch mit einem eher sparsamen BEV vergleichen. Da läge der Verbrauch (inkl. Ladeverluste) eher bei 15kWh/100km. Kostenmäßig unschlagbar.

@EVPuzzle Yup 66 kWh here today, and 308 kWh so far in April already, off the back of an above average March! ☀️ ⚡️

61kWh 🤗☀️ Best solar day since July last year 271 days ago Can I officially call Winter is over?

@Corbin630 @MdeZegher @TeslaCharging You should get a message when you arrive/plug in and also a push notification through your Tesla app when getting near the limit

Can you clarify how the congestion fees work? I charged up to 98% at a Supercharger while eating at the host diner on a road trip. There were only 3/8 stalls in use, so I didn't feel like a deep charge would be an issue. There was no warning about a congestion fee when I plugged in and I only noticed it when I got an email later that day. Fortunately the first fee was waived, but this wasn't a great experience

@KurtSupeCPA If they are also an iPhone user you can share the access key with them and it’s stored in their iCloud under the Legacy Contact section

One thing most people miss. Your Legacy Contact needs two things to actually access your account. The Access Key you created. And a certified copy of your death certificate. They submit both at digital-legacy.apple.com. Without the Access Key the process becomes a legal fight with Apple that most families lose. Do not store that key only on your phone. Print it. Put it with your will. Tell your executor exactly where it is.

A 71 year old man dies in March. Will. Trust. Beneficiaries on every account. He did everything right. BUT he kept his entire life on his IPHONE. Banking apps. Brokerage accounts. Crypto wallets. PayPal. Venmo. Credit cards. Passwords. Financial records going back many years. And every photo he ever took. His grandkids. His anniversaries. Years of family memories that exist nowhere else. His wife found a passcode scribbled on a piece of paper in his desk drawer. It didn't work. She tried everything. Nothing worked. What followed was months of frustration and thousands in legal fees recovering accounts and memories that were never hidden from her. A perfect estate plan on paper. Zero estate plan for his phone. Nobody ever told him his smartphone needed one too. Here's the free two minute fix that could have saved her all of that. 🧵

@sarah_go_green I have Ohme and Tesla. Think there’s a How To somewhere for this scenario, you have to delete all the schedules from the Ohme app (comes with some by default). I don’t use the Ohme app at all now, just Octopus. Basically you are turning the Ohme into a dumb charger

I had this DM from a new EV driver last night. Anyone with an Ohme that can give an insight? Hi was wondering if you can help me I’ve just installed my Ohme pro charge for my Tesla but intelligent octopus go and the ohme app are contradicting each other but because it’s a Tesla it won’t let me pair them to together only let me pair the car and octopus go together

@TesLatino 3% is my personal best in my M3

This is how I like to roll into Supercharging stalls to speed up both, the long drives and the charging sessions. Especially if I intend to stay longer to eat or stretch my legs a bit. I've been doing it for years with 4 different EVs and never had an issue arriving low, and if possible, will continue doing it. Unless there is a problem with the pack or the reading is different to the actual state of charge. x.com/TesLatino/stat…

@Carsofglasgow1 @tesla_uk Splash & go at Rugby homeward bound to Essex

I took the Tesla Model Y to my local Tesla chargers today. 35 mins and I’m good to go. @tesla_uk

@glynhudson And then use the PV to run a Heat Pump 😃 ☀️

One of the reasons why installing solar thermal does not make sense anymore, PV is now 10x cheaper and easier to and cheaper to install

@paulie_paulie @KateFantom @7Kiwi Okay did it myself: Eastern Green Link 1 (EGL1): 2029 (fully operational).  Eastern Green Link 2 (EGL2): End 2029 Eastern Green Link 3 (EGL3): August 2034 (Ofgem-approved target delivery date).  Eastern Green Link 4 (EGL4): August 2034 (Ofgem-approved target delivery date).

@KateFantom @7Kiwi When do those new connectors come on line?

As of right now, there's no solar power and wind is down to 4GW. Gas producing nearly 40% of demand

@paulie_paulie @KateFantom @7Kiwi @grok when do the Eastern Green Link interconnectors come online, breakdown 1-4
