Keep in mind that the voltage is generated by the source of the power, not the destination. Voltage is like the equivalent of water pressure in a plumbing system, and current would be the flow rate. When charging from an EA station, that station should provide the same voltage electric...

Can expensive after market wheels like these be repaired any more easily than other aluminum wheels? My understanding is that most of the time an aluminum wheel will crack if you try to repair it. I'd be very hesitant to spend spend this much money for wheels knowing they'll be used on...

That is indeed exactly the picture I had in my head.

Does anyone have a sense of whether the car audio can be heard from outside the car? I can often hear neighboring cars at stoplights in my Tesla, and I don't like being that guy. Even when I'm sitting in a parking lot waiting for something I'm uber concious of how loud others outside might hear...

I had Sirius prior to their merger with XM, and I cancelled my subscription shortly after. The two had a huge overlap of channels/content, and when they decided which channels to keep it was invariably the worse of the two options IMO. Also, they did something that massively degraded the audio...

That's why I said I hope they start to look better ;-) I watched a few videos about them, and some solar installers were commenting on difficulty of installing raised panels b/c of wind updraft and the need to get the lag bolts in exactly the right place, lest they miss the rafter they're...

I think the studios are claiming "this is a pre-production model" as an excuse for anything that is currently wrong with the car. I first saw the car at the meatpacking studio in NYC where no one in the studio would talk to me, then later saw the Boston studio after it opened and was told they...

I plan to get something like solar shingles when my roof eventually needs to be re-done. I would never buy another Tesla product having owned one of their cars and lived through the horrendous customer experience for 5 years, so that means I've got to go with an option like GAF's Timberline...

I have CR2032 batteries in my Tesla fob, and it easily lasts more than a year at a time with either energizer or Panasonic batteries. I would guess that since the Lucid fob is using Bluetooth that it probably requires more energy to do its work than a simple RF transmitter sort of thing like my...

I keep hearing people saying they’re replacing the key fob batteries pretty often. Has anyone sent feedback to Licid that they should make the fob have a rechargeable battery?

That is really nice customer service. In my Model S, I have scratches all over the aluminum trim on the door caused by the seatbelt hitting it when I unbuckle. Any chance your damage is caused by the same?

What do you wanna use a newfangled technology like _coal_ for? I heat my house with whale oil! That is to say, US history is filled with new energy technologies replacing older ones. The old industries die off, the workers in those industries have to move on. Cities and towns have to adapt or...

That's very poor behavior, and probably can be fixed in he future with a software update For comparison sake, my Model S charges with a high/low watermark system. It charges normally to 243 miles (90%), and when the range drops to 232 miles it will charge back to 243 miles again. This...

If looking for a non lucid home charger, I would go with either the ChargePoint or the wall box. There are several other good options though depending on personal needs and circumstances.

It should probably give a warning. At least they got the basic safety thing right though. They really need to disallow opening the trunk and frunk though while the car is moving. That’s not safe.

Can someone please check whether you can change from park to drive/reverse while a charger is still connected?

I just noticed that it seems the Pilot Sport A/S 4 has sizes now for the 21" wheels. That use to not be the case. They have the same weight specs as the Pilot Sport 4S. That might be a good option to have the 21" wheels but avoid having to buy a separate winter set.

Well now I know what to get for my winter set :)

Something went wrong with that post and it was only partial. Let me try that again... Load index 96 = 1565lbs (Michelin fronts) Load index 99 = 1709lbs (Pirelli fronts) Load index 101 = 1819lbs (Michelin rears) Load index 103 = 1929lbs (Pirelli rears) So total capacity with the Michelins...

Google tells me the Model S curb weight is 4600-4800 range, so we're talking about ~400-600 lbs more. Load index 96 = 1565lbs
