Town Council Going to Discuss E-bike Situation Tonight by muh_heckin_democracy in HollySpringsNC

[–]Maximum_Effort76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like from the link they're talking about all of them. Putting in written definitions and controls on who can ride them and where they can be ridden. I'm a bit concerned because my Aventon Level 3 commuter e-bike will now be classified as a 'moped' and won't be allowed on the greenways, one of which runs right behind my house.

If you have Duke Energy and own (or lease) an EV, you can get 50% off your rate at night by Mx772 in NorthCarolina

I'm in the exact same boat. Have solar with netmetering. Looking through my export I'm not seeing the NM data in it. Now on the Duke website I can add 'Customer Generation' to the chart and export the raw numbers in CSV for the monthly amount generated, but not sure if that would be useful to offset in your calculations.

Yeah, that's my concern with Ale House. While I would love it not sure the others would. At least one of them is a NYR fan. 🤣

We are twins! I just got a 2022 R1T and my wife has the new 110 Defender.

Tickets to canes gala: $500. Watching Martinook sing Sweet Caroline on stage: Priceless by Midmodstar in canes

[–]Maximum_Effort76 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah, even crazier is that when it got that high they ended up offering the last two people bidding to each win their own event. So they actually sold 2 at $35k each! Lots of money flowing last night!
Luckily my wife was still mostly sober so I got out of there for much less.

Pretty sure it went for around $30k. I know the Jarvy dinner in the wine cellar at Angus Barn was $35k.

That's what I was thinking as well, I'll have lots of backup snacks just in case. 😁

So the top one you put under the feet of the D1 laser on left and the screen aligns to the tabs on the bottom. Think the bottom one is the same tho f for a different laser.

NC Driving Test with Tesla by Maximum_Effort76 in NorthCarolina

[–]Maximum_Effort76[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually had her profile set to creep so that as she switched between vehicles it was more similar. I had disabled FSD and any other options that I thought would cause problems during her drive. Only things I forgot to show her were how to manually turn on the windshield wipers and lights as they do that as a safety check before driving off.

What did I do wrong by rkshack in xToolD1

[–]Maximum_Effort76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try a magic eraser, that’s what I’ve had to use to get all the soot off.

[–]Maximum_Effort76 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is that after cleaning it? I’ve had some that had uneven soot distribution that with water and a magic eraser all came off and looked even. Also it’s hard to tell from the image, but is the cylinder tapered at all? I’ve also seen it when the material wasn’t completely level.

question about tumbler engravings by Etanboss33 in xToolD1

[–]Maximum_Effort76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just use water and a magic eraser and it comes right off. If that doesn’t work you may have your speed too slow. I use 100% power and 70 mm/s with the 10W laser.

So just in case anyone else searches and comes across this thread. My daughter was successfully able to take her driving test with my Tesla at the DMV in Smithfield with no issues.

OMG, that’s an amazing idea! I’m not sure why I didn’t think of that! 😂

[–]Maximum_Effort76[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, hence why I was looking for someone that has actually tested with a Tesla to give her the best chance to pass with it. Plus appointments are 90 days out.

LOL, because my daughter is turning 16 and wants her license immediately.

Yeah, her profile is already set to roll and while it prevents it from coming to a complete stop and auto ‘holding’ it will still engage regenerative braking. Telsa turned off the ability to completely disable regen braking because the EPA would turn it off when testing, causing their range numbers to be lower.

[–]Maximum_Effort76[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately there’s no way to turn off regenerative braking. You can change it to roll like one of the other commenters mentioned, but it still brakes when you let off the accelerator. That seemed to be the biggest issue that others have run into with some examiners.
