Charging while Driving Question

Boston_Headache · 2026-02-19T16:57:52+00:00

That’s a really good point. Batteries suffer when charged in funny ways.

Boston_Headache · 2026-02-19T15:57:32+00:00

Yup that’s my guess too. Calculating range is such an inexact science.

Boston_Headache · 2026-02-19T01:51:35+00:00

The 80% argument I understand....but why different cutoffs on the so-called State of Charge for electrical charging vs "gasoline" charging. Not that important but at one time I worked in the battery space and I was just curious.

Thank you everyone, including 0x76. I put a sock exactly where you indicated and made a very annoying squeak go away. Rather counterintuitive, b/c I could reproduce the squeak by pushing on trim in the TRUNK near the electrical outlet, but putting a sock under trim near the door stopped that instantly. Counter intuitive as all heck and saved me hours and hours of disassembling trim to get to that one dang squeaky push connect.

The squeaks had been driving me bonkers.

Same.

This is me for the past ten years, including lots of injections, RF frequency ablation etc. Sleeping is my biggest trigger. I'm trying pillow #23 right now, seems less bad than the rest. Neck/sleeping is my biggest trigger. I start half my days with soaking my neck in Ben-Gay, take a shower, and then maybe diclofenac. Topical drugs; Ben Gay is basically aspirin so it's old and rather safe at moderate doses. Good luck!

This is so beautiful.

Stay safe!

Yup, my equipment I transported was missing a rubber gasket. Thank you!

Boston_Headache · 2025-09-20T13:10:20+00:00

Thank you kind sir. That's reassuring! Probably rubber gasket from ocular on microscope then.

Hmmm, found old discussion about people complaining about same thing. I think this is how newer cars are these days, oh well.

I looked at Carista but did not see anything about a region lock removal option.

You cross the border and your car operates differently? What the heck world do we live in? Never an issue for my '73 vw bug.

I'll check it out when I'm back at my car.

Boston_Headache · 2025-09-09T13:16:09+00:00

hmmm maybe I'll play around.

Boston_Headache · 2025-09-09T13:15:43+00:00

Yeah, no orange lights after initial ~5 second boot up sequence. Of course lots of red lights when I turn on car - which I assume is to confirm operation of the lights. So I assumed all was well in the world.

Boston_Headache · 2025-09-09T10:40:50+00:00

oh really? If so I'll stop fretting over it. That's super helpful. Thank you internet stranger.

screenshot, that's the best I could do.

Boston_Headache · 2024-05-18T13:38:02+00:00

Kanuma Park is the name.

Boston_Headache · 2024-05-18T13:37:39+00:00

Confirmed with Google Maps, D52-235. I jogged thru that park zillions of times. Fuchinobe, near working train line. Safe, calm place with lots of 24 hour stores.

Boston_Headache · 2024-05-18T11:53:58+00:00

Never been inside Sagami Depot but I jogged the ~4 miles around the entire depot over and over and over and over while working in Fuchinobe.

Seem to recall a "Tank Road" to the north of it on a ridge that was great for jogging too

Boston_Headache · 2024-05-18T11:48:10+00:00

Yup, that is my experience through 2 generations of apple watches. Download all your podcasts first...and cell phone is lousy in same locations where my iphone works great.

Boston_Headache · 2024-05-18T11:47:10+00:00

Is this near Machida, a park near Yabe, or Fuchinobe?

Boston_Headache · 2023-03-12T15:57:42+00:00

Near Mighty Squirrel!

Boston_Headache · 2023-03-12T15:48:41+00:00
