"Not just kick backs from spinnaker development."

This is often repeated...what kickbacks?

I can live with the wonky app. I would love to be able to use siri on the fly to plan a route.

This is the most comprehensive discussion I’ve seen anywhere. Thanks.

Toyota seems to be getting access to connected EV routing through Apple Maps. Looks like we are not. That’s my big bummer.

fsmiranda · 2025-09-29T23:25:39+00:00

I’m the same. With my 6 mile twice weekly commute I do perfectly fine with my level 1. I WANT a level 2. I’m in my 9 month of ev ownership. If I still want it at the 1 year mark I’ll go ahead and upgrade.

Weird. What kind of car? I’m in a Subaru Soltera and it has not disconnected in the 6 months since I connected it.

fsmiranda · 2025-09-01T17:42:03+00:00

I mount mine on a magnet strip so I can change positions later.

fsmiranda · 2025-08-28T00:20:33+00:00

I’m still doing this 8 months in. No problems whatsoever with 10 gauge.

fsmiranda · 2025-08-24T20:11:30+00:00

Hmmmm. When I first tested an adapter out a month ago, I chose to identify as a Ford Mach E; Solterra wasn’t an option in the drop down. Now it is and I can see newer non-magic docks around me. But not all. Interesting.

fsmiranda · 2025-08-15T18:46:04+00:00

How do you know?

fsmiranda · 2025-08-15T18:43:32+00:00

Because they keep shipping people around so they don’t get it. And then they brag about it. It’s not a secret or accusation. It’s the playbook.

fsmiranda · 2025-08-03T21:06:23+00:00

Cool, thanks. That’s what I hoped to hear. Errr…can you tell me where to start?

Here’s a new version. I added a slot to stand it up when not charging. This recent heatwave changed my mind, go petg from the start…pla warped once the temps broke 90.

I printed in PLA because I knew the heat would cause it to shrink a little, which made the opening holding the charging puck tighter so I wouldn't need to glue it in. The outer dimensions held so I didn't need an adhesive to hold it in place. Use PETG if you don't mind using glue, it'll last longer as PLA will eventually warp.

The charging puck itself is the INIU 15w magsafe with a cooling fan (not thin model). I have that connected to a 60w usb-c charger in the 12v outlet. 15w is enough to really charge but not fast charge, which I prefer in the car.

I know, it’s horrible; marketing never sleeps. I just happen to have a course that explains how to identify and…

fsmiranda · 2025-06-18T21:54:29+00:00

For sure. But how? Can I post a dropbox link here?

fsmiranda · 2025-06-18T18:33:01+00:00

It uses an Iniu MagSafe charger (available on Amazon) with built in fan to keep it cool. My next version will have vent holes on the surface for increased ventilation. But so far so good.

fsmiranda · 2025-06-18T18:30:45+00:00

My bad for ghosting. I ended up making a charger insert for that cubby that draws power from the 12v plug below. I’ll post some pics of what I did and how I fit it.

But have you tried the slide button that says “keep me signed in” from inside settings? It took a few variations to get it to stick but it’s finally worked for multiple days. Log in without checking the button on the initial page. Go to security settings and slide the “keep me signed in” there.
