Can you schedule the climate control to turn on? I like that my Leaf will
start the AC or heat a half hour before my normal drive times.

There's also a great API to control your car from anywhere (as long as it
has connectivity).

Seems lots of people here have Teslas. How does billing at the
Supercharger actually work? I read through the website, and the
back-of-the-napkin math I ran seemed that charging at a supercharger was
about the equivalent of
Perfect, I asked the sales rep after the test drive about that and he said it

I forgot to reply about the Supercharger costs. So as long as you have your
credit card linked to your tesla account, charging is super easy. Back up
to the pedestal and plug it in. That's it. It's then billed to your account
at the end of the session.
Costs have increased a lot this year so it's
My rate is typically $0.12 per kWh or less but I have grid tied solar at home
and at the shop, so in theory I get free charging. But also free from stopping
at a gas station all the time and never any oil changes.

That calculation is wrong based on current data in MN at least. I ran the
numbers and 300 miles out of 358 mile range on M3 long range is roughly
68kwh out of an 82kwh battery. In MN at 0.33/kwh, the cost to add 300 miles
of range is about $22.67
Compare to a camry that maybe averages 32 MPG at $4
Solar panels and batteries are free at the McCown shop?

Maybe good to talk about our typical long distance trip that, with the
long range 3, requires a visit to supercharger. Reno->Yuba
City->Reno. This is over the summit of the sierras so is NOT a drive
easy on the Tesla. It's about 75 miles past the range that would be

It's a calculator...so I don't know how I'm wrong...
The number is the default for the SuperCharger cost (which is 26c/kwh)
which was the question - not home charging.

Not sure where in MN you are, but in Mankato Excel Energy has a program
where if you install their charger in you garage it is .028 per KWh from
midnight to 6AM.

10 kW of solar would cost about $5K or less. Say you spend $200 per month on
gas the panels pay for themselves in a couple of years.

I have solar on my house and my shop. Did it all myself. Payback on the house

I gotta run 4 x 4/0 copper THHN and one #6 to a machine.
The online raceway calculators say I can do this with 2” conduit.
I will have two sweeps and at least 2 LBs. As much as I hate to, I really
think I should use larger conduit. I really hate it when I have trouble
pulling larger cable
What kind of sweeps?

How far do you have to go?
Bigger is always better, and if you're really concerned, you can
use those large-radius sweeps instead of the standard sweeps.

I hate running copper that big so I haven't pulled that much. I try to
contract that out if possible. I do find that the jam probably on the
southwire wire fill calculator is helpful as it gives a likihood of wires
getting stuck.
Just curious what are you powering that needs 4/0 copper? That
Southwire says low probability of jam. I just don’t believe it.
This is 480 volts. 250 amps. Probably don’t need the neutral.
For my conduit extruder line.
Last time I priced aluminum, since it had to be larger, the cost was similar.
That was at Home Depot though.
From: Forrest Chris
Are you saying the sweeps are two 90s? I'm with Forrest, someone else can
deal with that nightmare. Either open it up with LB or something, that
sounds like a hell of a pull.
Be sure you're using a gallon of lube.

I saw it a month ago at CinemaCon and I loved it! The whole crowd did.
My theater's customers gave great feedback tonight too. It should do well.
I liked it better than the original.

Watching the original right now. Reminded me if the time I landed a C-150 on a
runway at Wendover that the military had been using that day. To my surprise

I remembered a bit more. They landed me on a runway that was at or near to a
