Just drove a similar distance (Merimbula to Melbourne). Stopped to top up while we grabbed a coffee & cake for morning tea at Cann River. I had to leave the table with the last of my coffee as the car was about to finish! The rest of the trip was done without another charge.

#EV charging off peak rate is between 23.30 and 05.30 but my car started charging around 20.00 and was done by 01.30~ last night. Why?

These solar panels have been on Swiss rooftops for more than 30 years, and they are still delivering over 80% of their original output in Switzerland
Solar panels are usually sold with a 25- to 30-year lifespan, which makes a lot of homeowners wonder what happens after that. Do they quietly fade out, or can
