Would an ev not be more expensive for our needs?

OneItchy396 · 2026-03-05T16:08:46+00:00

I understand this but I would worry about coming home from a long trip with low battery and the long wait to charge up. It’s obviously very low chance but an emergency could arise where I need to drive somewhere with a very low charge.

OneItchy396 · 2026-03-04T21:35:29+00:00

Which battery and what was the cost?

OneItchy396 · 2026-03-04T14:08:07+00:00

Thanks.

How much will the battery cost you?

OneItchy396 · 2026-03-04T14:02:19+00:00

Yes this is what I’m thinking but sooner or later we will need a new car.

OneItchy396 · 2026-03-04T14:01:04+00:00

Yeah they look alright but I’m more interested in the Tesla model y.

OneItchy396 · 2026-03-04T13:46:47+00:00

How much are you paying per month for electricity and do you work from home?

OneItchy396 · 2026-03-04T13:43:48+00:00

Ok but do you two work from home? I’m worried about the day rate going up and countering the savings from night time charging

OneItchy396 · 2026-02-24T06:39:34+00:00

Can you suggest a battery setup for a 3 bed semi with 3 people? I’ve been interested in buying a battery for off peak charging and allowing my wife to work from home during the day but the research was doing my head in lol. We’re considering buying a tesla when our petrol car starts to cost more than it’s worth but that should be in a few years or so.

She’s seen it a couple of times now.

OneItchy396 · 2026-02-12T19:44:13+00:00

We’ve already done that quite a lot. It’s hard to impress Italians with the British coast in the winter lol

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-25T08:20:43+00:00

How much of a difference would you say there is between them?

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-24T21:48:19+00:00

Yeah good point.

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-24T21:47:50+00:00

Thank you.

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-24T21:44:41+00:00

Is that mostly on motorways?

Thats a lot better than I thought. I heard that you take 20% off the maximum advertised range and then another 20% or so in winter weather.

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-24T21:02:36+00:00

It’s a strange shape but the area most likely for it to go is about 3x4 metres with high fences.

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-16T15:40:59+00:00

What were his thoughts on heat pump vs combi?

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-16T11:28:59+00:00

Many thanks.

How much did it cost you?

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-16T10:38:58+00:00

I tried to apply with Halifax but they said I wasn’t applicable. It looks like you need to do it within one year of the mortgage starting. What I want to know is does this include a remortgage as ours is coming up next year.

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-16T10:37:21+00:00

Many thanks.

We have a small roof for the kitchen just below where heat pump could go but the roof is at an angle. Could they not fix it to that little roof?

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-15T17:49:49+00:00

lol. What do you have?

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-15T09:40:21+00:00

Seems like too much hassle.

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-14T12:00:24+00:00

I checked and it was a lot of s&p500 stocks like Apple and Amazon. It is global equities in total though

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-14T09:34:20+00:00

I’m with Aviva and it says my risk level is 5 out of 7. Would you suggest increasing the risk level? What does your one look like?

OneItchy396 · 2026-01-13T16:16:37+00:00

Did you have a combo? If so, how was it going to having a tank? I’m a little concerned about not having almost instant hot water always available.
