my 10A holden EVSE has also NOT tripped anywhere, although original unit was replaced by Melville Holden. Clipper Creek make the Holden EVSE not sure whether you are game enough to try testing your volt with a 10A Nissan LEAF / Mitsu iMiEV EVSE? as I have done. plugged into a 15A protected RCD sock...

ok, you could send it to me, and I will test / send it back. Maybe A/c or someone might know of a place that you can test the clipper on though. My standard Holden EVSE has not tripped at 10 amp anywhere, but I have access to recently built motel rooms with trigger happy RCD units, so I might try an...

UPDATE ! There are always 2 sides to a story.. seems the man was "known to the school" and also had a run - in with the police officer when approached.. run in being argumentative, then called for a documented report to be issued , in light of representations to the police attending, by the driver o...

Bottom line 15 amp is best practise. Agreed. Also, for your clipper creek LC 25.. many have suggested to oversize to 40 amp when using a clipper creek on the volt. (Have read a few post over on GM Volt forum about this same issue. ) Have you tried out the clipper creek on an outlet rated higher than...

ac motor http://forums.aeva.asn.au/smileys/smiley2.gif Yes , I can see that lugging the generator around is something to be considered, but why then do I see posts from pure EV's about Gen Sets being carried around in trailers. I see range anxiety among BEV owners on this and lots of other forums. I...

There is a study commencing on making the most efficient range extender for EV's. ”Electric vehicles are now an established technology, and available from many major vehicle manufacturers. They are of particular value in urban environments, and are supported by a growing infrastructure of charging p...

British Gas has acquired 28 Nissan Vans for daily use on the road with a 70 mile range.

Wow.. good on you Peter C! You sure have answered many questions posed to you in that article! Although Purists dont like Holden Volts because they have a range extender, I usually drive it around town, and its charged via Solar. On a recent trip, days ago, received 85kms on EV mode only. Total trip...

Cant build them quick enough . Also just won Japans Car of the Year Innovation Award. Yet another EREV.. this one goes a total range of 824 kms. .52 on EV mode. Sure looks to be a goer in the sales area. It had a rocky start with battery issue delays, but now its full steam ahead. Here is the link :...

did trip to Carnabys Park & Settlers Roadhouse Myalup last weekend 6.3L / 100km @ freeway speeds 90, 100, 110 trying the volt on P100 now. after hearing that my scooter instructor gets 50km extra when running on P100 vs 98RON Just did 600 km's Jindabyne Snowy Mountains to Central Coast 599.3 km's.....

Would be great if we could do something similar to http://zerocarbonworld.org/ Keep things simple and get a foot in the door Its not as simple as it seems. .great website though! Businesses have to pay thousands for a charge point to be installed, Cant see small aussie businesses doing that..at thi...

that caravan park didn't charge them the full cost of a powered site for the day. (it also helped that the managers are my in-laws) I'll sit down and draft a generic letter for accommodation places around Newcastle with the hunter EV festival going over a weekend next year it would be good to have ...

Thanks Gabz ! I took the question to them.. "you already have a 10amp outside GPO there, would you let an EV driver use it? and would you mind if it was advertised for free on Recargo website" ..path to get the ball rolling. So far two more Recargo sites available 7 days per week. .both with easy of...

Thanks Gabz.. see you or someone fixed it..

melbourne to Brisbane would be a nice aim.. to start.. even if they are only overnight stops.. not everyone will put in a fast charger for EV'ers. So just to be able to get say 10amp charging at locations approx. 100 kms apart would be a start. I actually asked at Cooma at a Service Station but the ...

Ok, I just added two spots today, by asking the proprietors if that was ok. Added, Via Recargo website today http://www.recargo.com/search Two I added were Jindabyne, and Marulan Truckstop, near Goulburn . How to do it. See if the owner is "positive" in allowing this to happen, find out a. what hour...

oh thats bad luck.. I wonder if its because they dont know how many electric cars or PHEVs / Bev's / EREV's are out there . Maybe a letter to Westfield on an official letterhead requesting charging would be possible? Would it help? Shopping centres that allow EV Charging sure captivate customers to ...

they are different from other cars. I am more used to the Volt braking now though, and I drive in L all the time and pland touse regen to stop mostly, only push the brake pedal down hard if needed etc. Am happy with braking here. But I did read the motoring writers comments about the "feel " of the ...

And I just spoke to an Estonian customer, here at work.. (he noticed the Volt was on charge), and mentioned they were heading to 300 charging stations in his country, Here is a link to 165 charging stations in Estonia.. http://estonianworld.com/technology/estonia-becomes-the-first-in-the-world-to-op...

haha well worked out http://forums.aeva.asn.au/smileys/smiley2.gif Now how about a Highway Charging Network Australia as a title? Would service stations be the start? I see some shopping centres having a few, but some only have a power point as well. IF you wanted to stay for 3-4 hours, a shopping c...
