Octopus social media accounts indicating there will be a free hour tomorrow. Not sure if it is for the whole of the UK or only regional, but their message makes it seem like all customers will qualify. Seen some complaints from Intelligenters who say the free power method doesn't work for...

Should we be talking about banning these ICE vehicles you see about the place? They seem to be prone to fire https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ckgqwq9pxjwo

Preaching to the converted here, but I thought some of the battery-heads might appreciate this article about re-using EV batteries for stationary storage. Also - is that a photo of a smashed MGS5? If so it can't be very old! But maybe it is virtually the same on the side view as all the other...

I made a short video about wind power in the UK and thought I would share it here in case anyone is interested.

Not sure if this is allowed so mods feel free to delate. However, I came up with an idea about political positions (slightly related to what I do for a living teaching political philosophy), made a video about it and now I don't know what to do with it really. But I'm quite involved with this...

I thought I was being clever getting a Tesla (UK) T-Smart immersion device to get hot water on a timer before we got our solar installed in 2023. Timer vs diversion The T-Smart was a lot cheaper than getting an eddi (or the more basic alternatives like the solar iboost). Around £150 vs. £300...

Based on questions from a friend and a recent post on here I've written a post on my personal blog about how to think about EV Range when buying a first EV. https://dougstaxappeal.blogspot.com/2025/01/how-should-you-think-about-ev-range.html Thoughts, comments and suggestions welcome!

I was at the Everything Electric Show today in Farnborough. I wasn't able to get on the MGEV forum while there. In fact I could barely get internet at all on the WiFi or via Three. Anyway, this is what I look like and I expect to wear the same blue overshirt tomorrow so if any fellow forum...

This morning I got an email from Everything Electric with links to pre-book test drives. It says it is an exclusive opportunity so either they sent it to those who have been to a couple of previous shows as well or they are sending it to everyone who has booked a ticket (more likely). In the...

I've just checked and the discount code "2024EE" still works for the Everything Electric Show in Farnborough, taking place October 11 - 13. 50% off the ticket price! This used to be called [Fully Charged Live] and it is a big event with test drives and all sorts. MG will be there, along with...

Apologies if this has already been asked, but I thought I'd see what people take to be their primary reason for going electric. Obviously they are all going to factors but which one got you excited enough about electric cars to entice you?

I am planning to stop at a Tesla centre (Cardiff) and looked it up on Zapmap to see if there were any others nearby. Anyway, clicked on the Tesla one on Zapmap to compare prices and it says "Un-tethered Connection, user cable required." Now this is surely nonsense. There is no way you'd bring...

Hello, I've just had a service and I was asked if I had a service plan, which I don't. I wondered if it would be worthwhile getting one. I just paid £160 for a service, which doesn't seem to be an option here. The next one is £217 and the one after that £114 for the next one. I remember...

Just seen an advert for the upcoming Everything Electric show in London (28th - 31st March) with a discount code: Quote 2024EE for 50% off tickets Thought it worth sharing here as I heard a rumour somewhere there will be a Cyberster on display but can't find any confirmation.
