New road trip video ⚡☀️🪫🔋
With a @tesla Model Y + @Ford Lightning my peak rates expanded 3pm–midnight at $0.60/kWh.
One Powerwall isn’t cutting it so I drove 2+ hours to pick up another and stopped at Supercharger #50,000!
Join me for the full adventure! 👇

We finally got Ionna.official charging in the Bay Area and it’s perfect for an EV San Quentin escape 😆
I brought my Lightning as part of NorCal EVs & joined the Bay Area Rivian Club for a fun morning at this great location in Larkspur! Check out the full tour and video here 👇

🤖 Would you trust a robot to mow your yard?
I tested the ECOVACS ROBOTICS Goat O1000 autonomous electric robot lawn mower on my real suburban yard - during both day & night conditions ! ☀️🌔
Mowing starts after setup at 27min if you want the action👇

Ford’s upcoming EV isn’t chasing Tesla, it’s chasing new volume. LFP + 48V + a compact electric truck could be the most important move Ford has made in years. I break down why this strategy is smarter than people think and where I’m concerned 👇

I set out to test a new EV charger and it uncovered a dangerous problem in my garage I didnt know I had! ⚡😳
This one surprised me. Watch my crazy IYILO install story 👇

I’ve thought about trying to open it up I figure it can’t hurt at this point

Here is a follow up testing the Hubbell outlet check out how strange this failure was 👀
I’ve Never Seen a Hubbell NEMA 14-50 Fail Like This!

I knew better… and yet …. 😅⚡
After 4 years of EV charging, my setup finally failed. If you’re using a NEMA 14-50, you’ll want to see what my procrastination caused. It can happen to you 🫵😆👇

Man I hope they get cheeper soon. What are you seeing in your travels outside of the US? Are there a lot of Battery Bargains to be had?

I love how they used a picture of ChaDEmo 😆 but yeah under very specific circumstances I could under other circumstances it doesn’t apparently. Depends on how high you’re charging temperatures frequency lots of factors.

I tested my Ford Lightning and a Chevy Silverado at the first true Tesla V4 Superchargers open to non-Teslas and meet up with Tom Moloughney from StateOfCharge while he was in town to test a Lucid Gravity at the same site.

With EVs people talk about mandates, range, charging, AI, flashy tech, self driving but what if the real problem is simpler: they’re still too expensive.
I put together a video where I go from Levi’s to Nvidia, Tesla, Ford, and the startup Verge to connect the dots.
