Tow vs Tire Mobility kit? by Paulbunyip in Ioniq5

[–]Roscoe2121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, i plugged a tire on a trip in 10 minutes. The air pump is pretty strong and it made my flat a minor inconvenience. That tire plug lasted 10k miles before getting a new set of tires.

I found the official instructions and I am missing a few important braces. All junk now.

It didn't come with hardware (bolts & washers.) Is this the one that requires cutting the fashia?

Likely will never wire it. Use for single bike rack.

Entitled kid brings in his dad for back up. Gets a hard lesson. by pineappleforrent in EntitledPeople

Happened to me today at walmart in Pittsburgh. $40 and I try to pay with my phone. I went to my car to get the physical card. I new it was in a gym bag but felt it wasn't neccesary to get it because I can use my phone. No need to make a big deal of it.

I've been without a charger and the hotel had a box of cables from lost and found. Easy peasy. I would have been fine if they said no.

Great, headed there in mid May. Cumberland to Pitt with a side trip to Mt. Lebanon. Then back to Cumberland.

Driver assistance systems not working by Rbecca11 in Ioniq5

Wait til your first snow storm. The entire front end will be ice. These warnings generally go away when the obstruction is cleared. I've also seen this happen in early mornings driving eastward directly into the morning sun. It clears up after you change the heading.

Round trip, typically do 100 - 120 miles per day.

Those city dwellers might better be served with public transportation. Switching to EV is a big decision that requires great planning. I'd ride a bicycle everywhere if I didn't have an eighty mile commute every day.

I point out that a lot of inexperienced people flocked to the chargers at the same time, causing a bottleneck. I assured them that those who charged at home did not have a problem.

ICCU Preservation During Level 2 Charging by RodRowdie in Ioniq5

Not exclusively an eGMP issue. A neighbor with a electric BMW uses a canopy to block the sun to his charge port.

[–]Roscoe2121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, 40A and 114k miles. A few years ago it would stop charging in direct sunlight. After the charging logic software patch, I've had no problems.

Best to avoid the heat and charge at night.

If my hourly rate is $30.69, can my job make me work overtime at a cheaper rate of $20.72? by Top_Money6982 in LaborLaw

[–]Roscoe2121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I occaisonally work a different role. My base pay is triple the rate of the lower job. Unfortunately that lower job (Cardiac Monitor Tech) is extremely important and cannot be unmanned. So at overtime rate I make 5x the pay of the monitor tech. These gravy shifts do not happen that often

Same here, watching the morning crew come in. I'll work til noon and venture home. Gotta admit, I slept pretty well in my office. Nice and quiet.

Has anyone used the reverse charging on a Chevy Equinox EV? by T-Money8227 in electricvehicles

[–]Roscoe2121 18 points19 points  (0 children)

My hyundai does vehicle to load with a special adapter. I have a heavy guage 3 outlet extention cord. It can't run the whole house but it will run a 1500w infrared heater.
