Being from Denmark, the links i could offer would probably not be of help :) This is the link to the one i bought in Denmark. If you do a search for "Car Battery Disconnect" you will probably get some links for some "local" shops, selling something like it. I also added a picture of it...

Exactly. Some are 1. Pay 2. Plug in Some are 1. Plug in 2. Pay / start Another thing i have seen quite a lot is people claiming that they have difficulties at chargers here in Denmark if they dont turn off or lock their cars. Seen multiple where they say "To get it working i" 1. Turn the...

Yeah, the sudden drop in SoC is also something my wife has experienced in the ZS EV. One day she drove from home to her work and parked up, when she came back the SoC had dropped almost 10% and suddenly her situation went from "I will arrive at home with about 12% SoC" to "I really dont want to...

Also known as a 10mm reset. I put a battery quick disconnect on mine just for this reason, you just unscrew a knob a bit, this is manageable even for my wife. She has been told, if she experiences problems with the car, she should try doing the reset, waiting 5 minutes before connecting it...

It's not "dangerous" to go, even below 10% if you know the distance to a supercharger and know it is in range. Only caveat is, if the temperature is low and the battery is not very warm, then i would not go below 15%, my wife has one time been in a situation where she was 5 miles from home, the...

Nope, 42.5KW usable NMC battery

Yes it is updated to latest, mine is the 2.gen so maybe there is a difference in when the USB port is powered on.

There are a few "compatibility" settings in AAWireless, but i have tried them all, alone or in conjunction with other settings, i think i tried all combinations and i never found one that worked better than no compatibility settings. It has come to a point where i was considering taking the car...

Well, 2021 is most likely a 1.gen, so there is not very much to "control" it has no app. In what sense does she mean, you have control, if you buy a charger that can be programmed to charge at the optimum time and she has the app, there really is not a lot to "control" We have the 2.gen, both...

I agree it is exceedingly easy to test if the charge circuit of the car is working, using a simple voltmeter. It seems unrealistic, that the charge circuit is broken alltogether, as no charging and driving will deplete the battery at a fairly quick rate, modern cars needs a lot of power to run...

From memory all 1.gen 42.5KWh usable cars was NMC. (But not actually possible to set it to charge to max 80% for some reason, so expect these to possibly have been charged to 100% a lot) 2.gen was LFP for standard range 50KW batteries and NMC for Long range 68KWh batteries.

I think atleast here (Denmark), every model had reversing camera, the difference between the top spec and the lower spec was 360 camera....Camera in the front and wing mirrors. But to be honest.......The reversing camera is pretty rubbish, especially if it is dark. My kids says the reversing...

Well the problem with the car not being able to heat properly and misting up atleast, is probably down to you changing it to eco. Remember, ECO is just a bunch of settings that use less power, hence the fact that the heater is not allowed to draw as much current. The power usage in the car is...

I can not tell you what went wrong, but it must have been the car sensing something was wrong or some other reason why it stopped the charge. I had an instance where my charger would start, then stop right after, when i went to the app or the car, it would start, then stop. That turned out to...

I dont know how other dongles work, but i can tell you my experience with the AA Wireless. Positives : Works great, connects fine and so on. Negatives : The car wakes up at relevant intervals, which powers on the USB port, powering up the AA, this makes the car power up bluetooth which means...
