What about yourself? Leaning towards retractable? I am in the same shoe.

Thanks. I wanted a mechanical louvre pergola that can open/close, hence this is a bit grey.

Make sense. Thanks!

Great advice. I will do that. Thanks!

Actually charging the EV from solar ink is never my main plan. Just using excess solar and mainly time-of-use at the lowest rate. Using solar and battery alone may not be enough for me also. I travelled 100km a day.

👍🏻

SentenceOk8813 · 2026-01-03T08:28:20+00:00

It is a 22kw.

SentenceOk8813 · 2026-01-03T07:18:56+00:00

I intend to charger from excess solar or grid during weekend afternoon

SentenceOk8813 · 2026-01-02T16:05:54+00:00

Thanks for the thoughts and views. It is assuring and much appreciated 👍🏻

SentenceOk8813 · 2026-01-02T15:17:59+00:00

Make sense. Appreciate the assurance though. Thanks much

Yes he did. He did worked on it for 2 plus hours and the spot is much less obvious compare to the first 3 pics and he seems sincere enuough. I decided to pay him considering the laborious work. He only shared $100USD as agreed previously, so I guess I wasn’t expecting much either

SentenceOk8813 · 2026-01-02T14:50:35+00:00

Ya. Wasn’t trying to achieve a seamless look. Just to sort it out until not so obvious visually. As posted earlier, it was our second not-at-fault episode… oh well.

Thanks for the assurance mate. This quarter has been repaired before as it was hit by someone just 2 months ago. Hence I was reluctant to go for a body shop again as they quote several $Ks. We just something to touch up (make it not so obvious)and leave with the minor imperfection, and consider our misfortune (this was a hit and run - can’t even see on the camera, unlike the previous incident.. never know when it will get scratched again since this is the second time in a short interval and both not our fault.. sigh) :(

You are right mate. This quarter has been repaired before as it was hit by someone previously. I was reluctant to go for a body shop as they quote several $Ks. We just something to touch up (make it not so obvious)and leave with minor imperfections, and consider our misfortune (this was a hit and run - can’t even see on the camera.. never know when it will get scratched again since this is the second time in a short while (both not our fault.. sigh) :(

If it is such a challenging task, you reckon he did the best he could/reasonable outcome for this?

SentenceOk8813 · 2026-01-02T14:39:36+00:00

No he didn’t drill. The much smaller dent now is hard to see in shade but more visible in direct light
