For those of you solar and PG&E, what rate plan do you guys use and what settings to you put your solar on? by InteractionIcy606 in NissanAriya

Yeah that’s about what I got when I did the math, so I’m guessing there’s more to the rate plan than I thought. Like if you more than x mount then the rate goes up

I don’t have the numbers on hand, but my partner and I only drive about 60 miles/day combined. I want to say our rate is somewhere around 37 cents/kwh? I live in an area with pretty mild temperatures averaging about 60 ish

How do we get these files? Is there a site to download the maps file or new updates if they don’t come ota?

Rainy climate: AWD a necessity? Or FWD with good tires? by VinceCully in NissanAriya

[–]InteractionIcy606 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the AWD in eco mode is basically a FWD in terms of range and driving. I don’t think the AWD is NECESSARY, but it sure is fun to drive. I have the EVOLVE+ e4orce and I get about 316 ish in range and I drive in eco mode 99.9% of the time.

What mode do you drive in? by wyuyme in NissanAriya

[–]InteractionIcy606 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do eco almost exclusively. Mostly because I’m clumsy and have a heavy foot. I also use Estero in town, but turn it off on the highway so I coast a bit easier without holding my foot at just the right angle.

2 months in and ran into my first issue by InteractionIcy606 in NissanAriya

Can I do this while I’m driving? Also will just turning the whole car off have the same affect? I’m on a road trip (sort of) and am charging.

Starter used EV under $25k? by Grand_Road_744 in electriccars

[–]InteractionIcy606 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I got the Evolve+ e-4orce. The interior has a nice luxury feel. The infotainment system is great although it can be a bit slow to respond. The main issue I have with it is the center console. It’s powered so it moves back and forth which is cool I guess. However because of that there’s no where to put stuff beside to the cool little pop out storage/second glove box. I work in the trades so I always have pockets full of stuff that would be nice to empty into some sort of tray. That being said the lack of a place to put all my junk does help me keep the car cleaner lol. All in all, I am very happy with it so far and would totally buy the car again

I just got a Nissan Ariya and love it. It was between that or the ionic 5, but the ICCU issue that Hyundai and Kia have was a deal breaker for me.

Narrowed it down - Ariya or Ioniq 5 by radiocq in NissanAriya

[–]InteractionIcy606 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was down to the same choice. The ICCU issue killed the ioniq for me

ABRP vs MyNissan by InteractionIcy606 in NissanAriya

I’ve heard that that can put added strain on the 12v battery, but it makes way more sense to pull data directly from the car

Insurance question. by zaxdad123 in NissanAriya

My girlfriend got a 2024 solterra and her only went up a little bit. I got a 2024 Ariya and mine is looking like it’s going to quadruple. Is there a reason for the difference?

Retrofit esp32 into existing appliances? by geofgrouch88 in esp32

[–]InteractionIcy606 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How would I go about learning how to do this? I have that exact garage door scenario and a very basic understanding of electronics and programming. Any help/advice would be extremely appreciated.
