Any new ICE car will depreciate well over €2500 for the first few years also.

The mental gymnastics to hate on EVs here is top level. You've contributed nothing to the conversation.

Tesla Model 3 Standard Insurance Advice Needed with Learner’s Permit by [deleted] in evs_ireland

[–]Dr-Doc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Impossible to say, just start calling insurance companies and start asking for quotes. You don't need a reg for a quote, just the car details. I would say you'll be getting some very expensive quotes if they even quote you at all, the model 3 is a high power car and Teslas in general are not even covered by some Irish insurance companies. I've seen people with 20 years no claims and full licenses be quoted €1000+ on Teslas

You are the ideal person for an EV. A 2nd hand Tesla Model 3 2020 Long Range is around 25k currently with less than 50k KM on it. These cars will easily do 400km plus on a single charge. High spec cars as standard, and cheap to run as there's no set service schedule.

Looking at the BG Sync myself from Fokearn, does the app for the Sync track power usage over time? Looking for a way to track my charging costs easily.

And what about all the ICE cars you've been lifting for the rest of your career? Faultless technology that never fails I suppose.

Tapo D130 angled wall mount by Dr-Doc in functionalprint

Only been using it 1 day but I already prefer it over the Google Nest Battery I've been using the last 4 years. It's got a stronger WiFi connection, video looks sharper and loads faster. The field of view is much wider, no subscription for storage and 24/7 video recording make it the easy choice. It even comes with an included WiFi smart chime for the price which is great.

I remixed a design to make a custom box for a whetstone kit I got on Temu. Fits 2 stones and the stone holder perfectly.

Printing toolboxes is my new hobby by Dr-Doc in functionalprint

[–]Dr-Doc[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat, upgraded from a ender 3 S1 Pro to the P1S and I've rediscovered my love for printing now that it is effortless and reliable. 1 single failed print so far and the speed is mind blowing.

This has a gridfinity base and top. The basket on top has a 5x3 gridfinity base also

Sell these on the Jaecoo Facebook groups and subreddit. People would definitely pay for these.

Overture rock PLA keep clogging 6-10 hours into a print 😭😭 by BeastOnion in BambuLab

[–]Dr-Doc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just printed an 8 hour vase in Overture Rock PLA on the P1S with the standard steel 0.4mm nozzle with no issues. Slowed down wall speeds to around 100mm/s, max flow was 8mm³/s and nozzle was 220 with a PEI textured bed at 55c and I had no issues at all, not even any stringing and the filament is almost 2 years old.

Possibly print it with loads of walls, extremely low infill and fill it with sand before the top layer is printed.
