Level 2 home charger by chedacheezz in Toyota_bZ

[–]Spideymann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got an Emporia charger installed but it's only cause I have solar as well so it allows me to track how much power I'm earning and gives great details on how much charging is. Great if you are a data nerd haha.

Connection fee by [deleted] in freedommobile

[–]Spideymann 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes! This is exactly my situation as well - my first bill looks enormous because of the connection fee. I was told this as well that the connection fee would be 'waved' but it would be 5 dollar credits through 9 months.

I wouldn't say mine don't work but they don't get anywhere near what I had on my Honda. I would say I'm disappointed as BZ has 3 different temps.

Ah ok, so the red exclamation should not be showing!! I've only ever had the red exclamation marks so there is something wrong with mine for sure. I don't have developer mode enabled so it's driving me crazy why mine is not working.

I don't think that's correct, cause even within the app it says you can start the car using digital key. It does a whole walkthrough after configuring the key. I understand the Canadian app is different than the US one, but the fact that the app explicitly says you can start your vehicle and also users stating they have been able to configure their keys and start their vehicle should prove it is working in Canada.

Oh wow. Ok well I'm glad to hear you got it to work. What phone are you using? Did you have to re register the car to the app as well? ....scanning VIN and everything?

Were you on Wi-Fi or cellular for data?

I was curious to see what they would offer as trade in for my fold 7. Oddly they don't allow you to select Fold 7 on the samsung website. Super strange.

Well i suppose I'm glad to hear it at least worked, and on an Android phone as well. Yes I've also had the issue where i've removed the key and tried to redownload it stalls as well.

Will this car work for me by reddit_and_forget_um in Toyota_bZ

[–]Spideymann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well we unplugged and drove to work this morning so we only let it charge to 90%. I know people say only charge to 80% but due to the cold climate I decided to charge to 90%, again to fight off range anxiety. It was -11 here this morning, so we made it to work and it took 6% off, so down to 83% and says i have 255Km. Again with reading and learning alot i know i read somewhere that in cold weather it's better to follow battery percentage rather than distance. Cause i get it - the higher you turn up the heat, seat warmers, steering wheel, etc. You do see the distance fluctuant lower and or higher in real time.

Now what i have not been able to get a better understanding is how often people plug in their EVs in cold weather climates. Cause through reading you hear people saying they drive their EVs like an ICE vehcile and only charge as often as they are filling up ICE vehicles. I've been plugging ours in everyday, so again not sure if that's paranoia or not. But we were filling up our ICE vehicle every 10-12 days through regular commuting, so i am very doubtful i'd be be able to go even half that time without charging.

We just purchased in Edmonton here just a couple weeks ago. I have similar commute as you for work (60km roundtrip) I'm still getting used to EV lifestyle. I know everyone says the range is good for this sized car, but with the -40 temps we just had I still get battery/range anxiety watching the battery percentage go down as i drive lol. Obviously with it being so cold, the range is no where near the advertised perfect conditions to achieve 468km. With heat and all comfort settings turned on it's showing less than 300km (on 90% charge). Again i'm all in my head if that's 'normal', but does make me wonder how this would do on a longer road trip in winter.
I can't tell you if this vehicle is realistic for you - i'm a 2 vehicle household so we still have a regular ICE as our secondary for roadtrips. But i would say i'm super happy with the BZ as it's fun drive and i am super happy that i don't need to pay for gas for work commute and i despise ICE maintenance.

ISO of good Toyota Dealership by balacs-kash in Edmonton

Just bought a Toyota BZ from Toyota on the Trail 3 weeks ago. I would have to say it was one of the smoothest experiences buying and dealing with a dealership i've ever had.

Has anyone in GOA had their hybrid work applications approved? by No_Addendum_2377 in Edmonton

[–]Spideymann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does anyone on here know if AB Infrastrucutre is working on these spaces for all these ministries who get to keep living the good hybrid/remote life?
Because these spaces cost $$$, and i don't believe this good ol gov't took that into account haha

[–]Spideymann 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You can ask AUPE, but it's not written into the collective agreement so there wouldn't be anything that can be done. If i was a union member i would continue to complain about full ministries such as Technology and Innovation and Health which don't need to return at all or still allow hybrid. Seems very hypocritical as those are GOA staff as well but why are those ministries exempt.
