If you have a Tesla, this is outstanding news. First, because it dramatically expands your DCFC charging options, not that you need that in most areas. But it also, and this is the big one, severs the dependence on the Telsa Supercharger network. This might seem like a weird thing to say, out loud, but it’s actually one of the […]

Not much to say about this one, because there’s not a whole lot going on… Except that the lack of progress is somewhat disappointing…

The Google Pixel Buds Pro don’t sport the best noise cancellation or the best audio quality. But sometimes being good at everything, is better than being that best at one thing.

Not sure how John Wick 2 became the movie of choice on Sunday, but that’s what was requested. I thought we owned it, 1 and 3 are part of our collection, but somehow this guy slipped through the cracks… No problem, I had some Google Play credit associated to my personal account, I’ll just buy it there and have it […]

This is going to sound crazy, but hear me out. There’s a lot of FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) out there around EV refueling (aka charging), especially when it comes to road trips. I get it, the refueling model is very different, and you need to know that the model is different, to understand that looking at refueling an EV like […]

Gotta say, it was really weird to see something like this Op-ed on how attacks on net metering are a good thing on a site like CleanTechnica. But, you know, maybe there is something to it that I wasn’t aware of, so I approached it with an open mind. But unless I’m missing something, it seems to be promoting the […]

Being able to level 2 charge your electric vehicle when it’s at rest is a key part of what makes the EV experience so convenient. Occasionally, there will be times when someone intentionally blocks the EVSE or some other circumstance makes putting the car next to it impossible. That is where this J1772 extension cable comes in.

When I was in the market for a fully adjustable EVSE, I was somewhat surprised to discover that there just aren’t many of them. The Shell Recharge 32A and 40A EVSE are in a select group that will do 120V (Level 1) and 240V (Level 2) at 12A/16A/24A/32A for the 32A and 12A/16A/24A/32A/40A for the 40A. Like anything, there are […]

I totally agree with Jonathan Gitlin that we need better DCFC charging infrastructure. But, I can’t help but see some holes in the whole “EVs are doomed…” thing. First, and most glaring, is actually something that Jonathan says out loud. No, the problem is whether or not any of the chargers will be working when you arrive. (Unless you’re driving […]

I really want to love the Carlink CPC200-CP2A. As a multi-mobile OS family having a single dongle that supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is amazing. Unfortunately, I’ve been having a couple issues with the device, and I haven’t been able to work them out with Carlink support. They suggested that I update the firmware, but there’s a MASSIVE […]
