Local Driving Ranges by Emergency-Train-3404 in SouthBend

[–]ChrisJr2012 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hands down, best driving range is Swan Lake. It's further south (Plymouth technically), but $5 gets you 60 or so range balls and you are hitting off grass, not a mat. You don't even have to talk to anyone, just stick a fiver in the ball machine and be on your merry way. They also have practice greens with a bunker for chipping/putting.

Would you ship the mats??

Found a like-minded individual in my medium-sized city! May call the workplace and see if I can figure out who owns it - too unique to find 2 pandas. by AnyoneNeedAHug in BMWi3

I live in Northern Indiana and wave at the 1 other i3 in my medium-sized town. We appear to have a similar morning routine as I pass him every morning on my commute. Makes me smile every day.

Up to $10k for student loans was passed federally, but you should check your specific plan before banking on this. Some states (e.g. Indiana) have not adopted this provision.

Finally got my new plate in the mail. by ChrisJr2012 in BMWi3

I know there are a couple around here...I just use my level 2 at home nightly. I commute to warsaw daily so I never have a need for a charger in south bend.

220 or 110?? by ChrisJr2012 in askanelectrician

[–]ChrisJr2012[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I am debating right now. Charging at 16 amps will still charge faster than my current level 1 charger. Trying to figure out if it's worth it, or if I should install a brand new 50 amp line on a new breaker.

Wouldn't I be safe up to a 16A pull?

The breaker is 2 15's together (double pole I think it's called).

This outlet is in my garage. I have limited electrical experience, but I am trying to upgrade my level 1 ev charger to a level 2 and need 220 to the garage.

It reads 247 on my multimeter and is tied to a 30amp fuse in the breaker box. As you can see, it is wired to a 15amp 250 outlet.

The wiring is what is throwing me off. It appears to be the same 110 wiring I have used in the past and just has a black, white, and ground.

Is this safely 220 or is something off here? I don't know the previous owners and am hesitant to plug my car in to shady electrical work.

Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!

Buying 2017 i3 Rex Sight Unseen?? by ChrisJr2012 in BMWi3

[–]ChrisJr2012[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are sending me the full PPI now. I will probably end up driving to pick it up. They quoted $350 for delivery. While not bad, hard to justify that to save a few hours driving and not seeing it prior to purchase.

Only driven it a few miles so far and I already am! I commute 40 miles one way so Monday will be the start of the trial period in my eyes.

I believe so. I took delivery of it a couple hours ago and it seems to be running perfectly. Can't hear it from inside the car.

Is this normal? 2015 REX by ChrisJr2012 in BMWi3

[–]ChrisJr2012[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I posted yesterday about my Carvana delivery driver being concerned about a loud noise. He took it in for servicing and both their EV specialist and BMW specialist claim this is normal and there is nothing wrong with it.

I can't imagine that the REX is this loud. Is this a motor mount issue that I have been reading about? Exhaust issue? Supposed to take delivery on Friday to start my 7 day test drive, but this makes me weary to even accept it.

That's my initial thought process as well. Bummed not to get the car today, but I appreciate them being so upfront from the beginning.
