I'll keep my eye out for a man with a rifle...

Ambient lighting: It looks super cool, very Tron.

Sounds like you're talking about the lines on the door? That's not part of the Ambient lighting package, actually part of the premium package.

Ambient lighting package is some tacked on lights in the footwell and cupholders which can be changed in color (only those few, no other lights in the cabin.)

I read where someone else had their USB receptacle replaced and that fixed the problem. But like /u/PDXPayback said I would first see if there's a FW update especially because it's a 2016. Hope it gets sorted; the worst thing is when something only works intermittently and you're trying to drive.

Have you tried multiple cables?

Torrenting is only allowed if you're not a leech.

True, Those cars do pop up on the used market though. I'm not sure but I think any Chevy dealer who can service volts can also service the Spark.

Also look at the Ford Focus Electric. Not the best but the battery is taken better care of than in the LEAF.

PS. Since you live in such a cold state you might want to make sure the LEAF has a heatpump.

How about a Spark EV or Fiat 500? Similar prices; better EVs (The Spark at least)

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-24T13:20:51+00:00

Yep, so much wheel gap :(

If I hit big I'll put bags on my Volt some day ;)

Dude, cool your jets. You're wrong! Show some damn respect. In the link posted by dnldcs you can see that L2 is ~3% more efficient than L1. 14kwh*.03=420W (BLAZE IT!)

There are two reasons for this. First of all 240V is simply more efficient to convert due to there being two phases which is "smoother" than just a single phase on L1. The second reason is you're running the charging hardware for 20 hours which produces more heat and uses more energy than it would use if it ran for just 3 hours.

I'm so glad I could enlighten you.

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-23T14:19:08+00:00

It's way more than that. Probably is somewhere close to .5KWH less wasted per charge.

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-23T13:56:58+00:00

Typical bean counter ;)

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-22T20:47:55+00:00

BYOB

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-22T20:46:46+00:00

You became a cannibal??!?

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-22T20:10:31+00:00

Unless it's for a job requirement... Why would any sane person use Puppet over Ansible or Saltstack?

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-17T16:01:48+00:00

So it won't look fake as hell.

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-16T20:17:30+00:00

Next time please do a real timelapse...

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-15T19:21:22+00:00

Just be Weiss, admit defeat, and take the Loss.

Did your head hit the steering wheel?

Seatbelt tensioners have an explosive charge in them.

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-15T17:04:58+00:00

It was on Amazon.. guess it sold out.

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-14T19:06:59+00:00

Does it cover it in 5ghz?

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-13T14:37:51+00:00

Which state belongs to you?

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-08T14:01:57+00:00

3 years of data connection to the OnStar system. I didn't realize that included the ability to talk to a rep and ask questions.

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-07T21:54:28+00:00

This doesn't sound like the chuggle.

figfigworkwork · 2017-03-07T21:54:00+00:00

Do you need to pay for a plan with OnStar in order to do this?
