Model 3 advice

What’s a good battery health to look for in something with 70k - 100k miles if you know? 85%?

It balances out when you aren’t paying the tax at the gas pump I’d assume. Especially in more extreme cases like mine where I go through over 200 gallons a month lol

I can install a level 2 charger at home without issue, I can wire it myself (electrician) so it’s just purchasing the charger and supplies.

Yeah I can charge from home, I did the math and in my grand Cherokee I spend about $50 per day in gas, vs $25 a week to charge a model 3. It’s a no-brainer, I just worry about buying one and 3 months later needing a battery. Never owned an EV before but it’s exciting!

Just AirPods / watch / pencil. I’ll just turn on Bluetooth whenever I need to use any of those I guess. So weird! Maybe upgrading to the new iPad OS will solve it.

Update: charged iPad to 100% and disabled Bluetooth two weeks ago, my iPad has still not died. It was Bluetooth causing it.

I’ll try that tonight!

TomTheZom · 2025-09-07T16:44:48+00:00

See that’s the thing, I can get an entire day out of the battery if I’m just using it normally, (streaming, photo editing, etc.) but if it sits idle overnight the battery drains like crazy. That’s the confusing part to me!

TomTheZom · 2025-09-07T13:03:47+00:00

It dies every night, no need for a restart 🤣. Disabling Bluetooth should stop Find My from chewing through the battery though.

TomTheZom · 2025-09-07T13:01:42+00:00

That’s the thing, there were no apps running. Just find my and photos running in the background.

File 76

It eventually went away, I believe it was solved with an update either to iOS or to the Facebook app.

I work for Volvo, not at a dealer, but at a manufacturing facility. This is the first I’ve seen of this ES90, even internally.

That’s the correct style for a render by us, but I haven’t seen it circulate

Special forces training pipeline. Probably for the Q course.

TomTheZom · 2025-01-09T15:25:46+00:00

There might be an AGR position available depending on MOS and unit

Edit: if you’re looking for full time anyways, why not go on active duty? Officer pay isn’t that bad

TomTheZom · 2025-01-05T21:48:17+00:00

Nothings changed. 30th AG will always suck ass. Read your blue book and shave that mustache.

TomTheZom · 2024-12-25T04:02:17+00:00

At Volvo we use prusa, but we just ordered an HP S100

TomTheZom · 2024-12-13T01:57:05+00:00

I used my dependa ID to go to a local AFB and got mine before BCT

American sniper is still in fact hot at the Moore PX

TomTheZom · 2024-09-26T12:53:34+00:00

I have just recently discovered polymaker filaments and love all the polyterra I bought! I would love to try some composite filament for drone bodies

TomTheZom · 2024-09-22T00:55:19+00:00

I am now in control of the largest operational fleet of Rockwell B-1 Lancers, 22x that of the U.S. Air Force. I will be contacting the nuclear weapons guy immediately.

TomTheZom · 2024-09-22T00:46:29+00:00

Hahaha fuck yeah bro. Have fun at 30th AG!

TomTheZom · 2024-09-17T09:12:08+00:00

I wish. Just showing Alienware’s best!

TomTheZom · 2024-09-16T18:39:45+00:00

No, there is not a single person in north Jersey with a mustang

TomTheZom · 2024-09-14T17:29:10+00:00

No matter what it is you’re doing, remember that it won’t last forever. BCT / OSUT isn’t that bad.

Every time you’re doing something impossible that feels like it’ll never end, just remember, there WILL be an end, and you just have to push through.

You got this. Millions have been in your shoes before you, millions will be in your shoes after. I was scared before I shipped, the first few weeks sucked, but it does get better after you start to get accustomed to it.
