Sitting in my local cafe in Baildon, West Yorkshire and spotted a blue ‘Left Hand Drive’ MG4 pass by. Somebody is a long way from home😃

You might find that you have Intelligent Battery Heating turned on as I think it is turned on by default. Once the ambient temperature drops below about 10 C it heats the battery whilst you are driving. As @siteguru points out, this uses a lot of kWh and severely hits efficiency, particularly...

We live on a very steep quiet hill, about 100m long. I just stick it in neutral and gently brake down the hill every couple of weeks, when I remember. Keeps the discs clean, as far as I can see.

I also prefer the updated 1 mph increments for short presses and I've become a dab hand at hitting 5, or 10, increments with carefully judged long presses. Whilst liking the fine adjustment, I usually set to round numbers for speed limits, i.e. 40 in 40 mph zone, as I find the MG4 speed...

You can set up more than one secondary account, so have the app and Home Assistant integration active at the same time. The car is bound to the main account only.

There does seem to be some conflicting information there.🤔 Try checking back later and see if the status has updated. Perhaps it’s lagging behind.

Maybe I’m missing something but doesn’t that mean your tax will run out at the end of this month, it says tax due 1st April 2025? Mine says Taxed, Tax due: 1 March 2026.

It does indeed. Also I've checked and the update period for electricity is actually 10 seconds, I've edited my previous post.

I do similar with Home Assistant to virtually eliminate clipping. Luxpower inverters have a mode called 'Charge Last' which switches the priority, after house load, to export rather than charge the batteries. In that mode only the solar generation over the inverter AC capacity goes to the...

I have an Octopus Mini which basically acts as a link between your smart meters and Octopus so that the info in the Octopus app is effectively live. For electricity it updates about every 15 secs if I remember correctly (EDIT it is actually every 10 seconds). I can't check just now as I'm not...

I understand your concern I felt the same way when I started on IOG. When I got slots outside the off peak I was checking on the usage charts in the Octopus App to try and make sure I was being charged at the off peak rate. The charts in the App show costs based on the peak rate even when it’s...

Good point👍

Surely the smaller the wheel gets the more times it has to rotate for the same horizontal distance travelled. Therefore if speed reading is based on revolutions it will show faster as the tyres wear? Small wheels spin much faster at the same vehicle speed.
