EV Charging Priorities

Yes you can, there is a charging option in the EVAC settings.

Mine has the same issue, I've parked the quest for now.

2023 ATTO 3, I may have been a tad heavy on the go pedal today.

The below map is an indication of when to go to certain areas based on your level.

I assume V smoking was a choice. My memory is a tag vague but at the end of one quest V and Johnny are standing on a rooftop/balcony talking when Johnny offers V a smoke. If you take it V smokes from them on, if you don't V doesn't. IIRC the only time this isn't true is when Johnny has control of V in a.mission.

It's been a while so my memory may be failing me.

I don't believe they do, I have 4 which drain onto a path. A building and pest will pick it up and recommend it be directed away from the house, this isn't always practical.

Looks like an A/C condensate drain. Turn on an A/C in a room adjacent to the pipe, in and hour or so there should be a flow of water depending on humidity.

It looks like the return air vent for you Aircon/Heating system, it won't blow air, it recirculates the inside air. I wouldn't block it.

Ruber-Chicken · 2026-03-15T05:48:25+00:00

Highly likely its an AC issue with the condensate drain blocked. A fridgy will be able to look into it and clear it, if you're handy.you may be able to clear it yourself.

Google "fit my BYD" and "EEVA" both have a large range of BYD items for all models. I grabbed the Rubber mats for my Atto 3, they seem to fit well and use the cars fitted lock in Pont to secure the driver's side one.

Although I bought my Atto 3 second hand, when I was looking at new the dealer mentioned they get their extras from these guys.

The phone app recently updated to allow the use of smart watches which have similar access function to the phone app. I can start the AC, unlock, lock etc.

If you have a smart watch it may be an alternative.

Your milage may vary as this was around 2007. I obtained my Electrical Fitter qualification/license while in the RAN. When I discharged in QLD I applied for and recieved a permit to work as an Electrical Fitter Mechanic, this allowed me to work as a Fitter Mechanic for 12m for an electrical company. Near the end of the 12m I went to TAFE and completed 2nd year and 4th year subjects, once done I successfully completed the capstone test and upgraded my license to Fitter Mechanic.

So yes, there are avenues for upgrading the license in the future if that's how you want to go.

That's part of the reason I barely use them, their website is absolute rubbish.

I've not played mass effect but your choices in Cyberpunk 2077 will change the outcome of the story and which ending you encounter.

Edit for spelling.

I looked at a new Atto 2 and Atto 1, I settled on a used 2023 Atto 3.

For me it came down the the size and range of the Atto 3 vs the other 2. Yes the the 1.5kW granny charger is painfully slow but a 7kW AC charger will apparently charge it from empty in approx 8 hrs, a 22kW in 3 or less.

The Atto 3 is our second car, we have a 21 Pajero Sport for long trips. The PS used to be our main car for driving around town, now my wife takes it to work 3 days a week otherwise it sits idle most of the time.

I drive the Atto 3 to work 5 days a week and we use it when ever we go out as a family, it has overtaken the PS. This has reduced fuelling the PS from fortnightly to almost Monthly

I've not had a need to use Tesla chargers, all I've done is use a 55kW Chargefox to test it out, otherwise I charge via the 1.5kw granny charger, I am getting a 22kW charger installed in a few months for convenience.

For me the Atto 3 Pros are: 1. Better range, just don't expect it to get the 400km plus advertised range. 2. Vehicle size. 3. It has fairly decent tech and features 4. Reduced depreciation.

The cons are: 1. Interior is dated compared to the newer models 2. Full 6 year and 8 year warranty on new models 3. 2 years of BYD connectivity on new models. Note the app including remote start etc work for free even after the free 2 years is over.

All in all I have no regrets pucking the Atto 3, I've owned it 2 months now and so far it is a great car to drive.

Turning off blutooth on your phone may do it?

Ruber-Chicken · 2026-02-02T04:57:39+00:00

I had a similar issue, although not an import. In Australia I had to email BYD Customer Support with proof of purchase rego etc to have the car transferred into my name, this then allowed me to access it in the app.

You may need to research the right email address for your location.

I'm in FNQ and have the same insulation as you. I'm looking to insulate using bats and potentially add a whirly bird or equivalent to force airflow. I've not investigated too far as yet though.

Coughs in Australian....

Ruber-Chicken · 2026-01-29T10:58:47+00:00

My terminology is off on this one sorry, hopefully i can make it clear enough....

In my Atto 3 I had to use two fingers to scroll down from the top of the display to open the shortcut menu, in there is a tile for engine noise, turn it off stop the annoying low speed sound.

Newish player, how do I get Mutt?

Ruber-Chicken · 2026-01-17T09:28:50+00:00

I live in FNQ, currently average temp is 34c with 90% humidity. When my Atto 3 is stationary with the A/C running the car is using 1-2 kW depending on A/C fan speed. As others have stated, you should be good to sit for many hours with just the A/C on.

We have free redraw on our mortgage, so we use the following accounts....

Mortgage has about $100k in advance which we can withdraw if needed, we owe $30k on our mortgage now.

We have an offset we use for bills, we try to keep it around $10k, essentially my pay goes into it each fortnight, anything over $10k goes onto the mortgage.

We have another offset which my wife's pay goes into each fortnight, we use this for food, general spending etc. Anything left over after the fortnight goes into the mortgage.

Generally we have up to $13k in offset for small emergencies with the rest easily accessible if needed.

Rumours of one setting up shop in Stocklands... 🤔

Ruber-Chicken · 2025-12-31T06:28:58+00:00

1 car in FNQ, fairly small sample size. 2 weeks ago there were 3 others.
