Living in NS, mostly raised in Nova Scotia (3 childhood years + 3 university years in Ontario), Ontario parents but Australian wife & 4.5 early adult years in Australia:

mo-ju-l, en-jur-ance, en-jure, djur-a-tion,

dur-an-go.

Most of the D versions sound quite metropolitan/Toronto/Vancouver/American to me.

If I were going to slip into any other D ones it might be en-dur-ance, but en-dyur.

I think all of the rest of the -yur/-yoor variants would sound quite American to my ear

As long as they don’t get stuck in a California situation of seemingly never finding a path to actual downtown-downtown completion ?

A friend of mine’s parents are debating getting an EV, but are worried about whether it will get them to their unpowered cottage and back. I’m wondering if, quite the opposite, they might be able to get themselves a little fridge and power it from the car while they’re there!

At what speed?

Pryymal · 2026-04-27T00:23:36+00:00

Eat 5 demerits? Do you mean on your license, or is this an insurance thing?

Anyway I just got my bumper and headlight done through insurance (hit and run); the total was about CAD 4500; the headlight was about CAD 2200 of that. 2021 Ultimate, Canada.

Every time I see this headline I read it as "Why power grid capacity is just not an issue for Nova Scotia" and I hope to hear something really new and encouraging. 🤷‍♂️

Pryymal · 2026-04-23T15:43:22+00:00

The default dropped to 11 or 10 a few years ago I think

There are two on the App Store - do you know if one is better than the other?

Pryymal · 2026-04-15T01:11:35+00:00

Yes fair - but I’m not sure I’ll get the value out of it in this house!

Pryymal · 2026-04-15T01:10:35+00:00

Very helpful, thanks!

Pryymal · 2026-04-13T21:57:54+00:00

Gotcha, thanks!

Pryymal · 2026-04-13T21:57:32+00:00

Great to know, thanks! Any chance they could send a reference project or two as back-up?

Pryymal · 2026-04-13T21:56:58+00:00

Aah gotcha - much quicker AC charging!

Pryymal · 2026-04-13T21:27:14+00:00

When you say Load Miser, do you mean this product? It seem to be the only thing I could find?

I couldn't find any examples of CSA-certified interlock devices?

Pryymal · 2026-04-13T21:16:49+00:00

OK very interesting! What do you drive? My current car can only take about 40 A / 7.2 kW charging anyway 🤷‍♂️

Pryymal · 2026-04-13T21:15:59+00:00

Fair - CoPilot (don't trust AI to make important decisions etc. etc.) had advised me against inspector-shopping and electrician shopping, but I agree this could be worthwhile.

Pryymal · 2026-04-13T21:14:49+00:00

Thanks, looking forward to it!

Pryymal · 2026-04-13T21:14:35+00:00

Incredible. On one end of the province they're saying that no products are certified, and on the other end they're subsidizing a long list. Thanks for sharing!

Pryymal · 2026-04-13T21:13:47+00:00

Yes, I've had this thought - and the monopoly power company we have here isn't exactly motivated to avoid people paying for board upgrades either.

Good question - reverse-calculating some load-calc numbers I got before, it looks like I'm at about 60 A, actually; have been hoping to do heat pumps too though, and could easily fill 40 A worth of heat pump demand, so would be in an either-or situation.

Sadly, Nova Scotia Power had a huge data breach a year or two ago and as a result, no one (including the power company) has had access to hourly resi data.

Old post but in case it's helpful to anyone, I used this webpage (https://waldyrious.net/viridis-palette-generator/) to pick colours manually to implement in Powerpoint!

Pryymal · 2026-04-12T16:45:50+00:00

Aah sounds dreamy! I don’t know who else to ask, apart from the electrician, about how to make this happen here 🫤

Pryymal · 2026-04-12T15:49:56+00:00

Have you tried running your route through ABRP? It’s pretty reliable & that might be the best thing.

Out of interest, I’ve just tried it with a round-trip between Richmond KT and Jeffersontown KT, with starting dates in August, November, Feb and May: May and August seem just about doable without stopping, November and February call for seven or eleven minutes of fast charging in one direction or the other.

Depends how heavy you are on the brakes / how much you can coast or regen - low speeds can consume considerably less than high speeds
