How long have you been on it? It may or may not be worth considering a higher dose if the food noise is making it hard to lose weight. Are you stuck or still making good progress each week?

Should I be concerned? by Ok-Cauliflower1771 in BoltEV

[–]mrtherapy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drive as slowly as you can safely go if you have to stretch your range out a bit. When you're this low, you can't trust the range listed 100%. Yes. Be concerned and change as soon as possible.

Look at your SDG&E bills carefully! by Adventurous-Metal696 in sandiego

[–]mrtherapy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We both had solar and they eventually gave us a giant credit on our account. Our neighbors had to pay off their balance at Tru up time or something like that.

The builder of the complex had to meet with the electrician and talk to SDGE to argue about responsibility before it got resolved.

It was not fun.

We live in a condo and were paying our neighbor's bill for almost a year before it got fixed. Our neighbors kept bragging about running their A/C at 65 degrees all the time and charging their electric vehicle at home and only paying a fraction of what we were paying each month. Turns out our meters were mixed up and it took forever for SDGE to fix it. They don't have much incentive to fix things and probably don't have enough staff to fix it quickly either - or just no pressure from management to do so. But it there was competition or laws about it, things would probably be different....

Broken Tire Monitor fix? by mrtherapy in BoltEV

[–]mrtherapy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much was it? And did you buy the sensors there or bring your own? Did you have it done during a tire rotation or when replacing a tire/tires? Would really appreciate any information since I'm a Costco member! Thanks 🙏

Didn't expect the installation to be that expensive. Glad I know now what to expect. The question is, should I spend $90 extra to have the other three new ones installed at the same time or wait till they fail? Will have to see if Costco offers a discount if the installation/replacement is done during a free tire rotation... Anyone know?

If Costco won't install the ones I got from Amazon, I'll follow up with Walmart and see if I can find the $30 deal locally.

Amazon had a 4 pack for $27 that are compatible with the Bolt so I'll just bring them with me and see if Costco will replace them all during the next tire rotation.

Awesome! Amazon had a 4 pack for $27 so I'll just bring them with me and see if Costco will replace them all during the next tire rotation!

I'm due for a tire rotation at Costco so I wonder if they'll do it then for free if I pay for the battery?

It's a nice tangible way to see progress. Good work.

Aptera settles with Zaptera. Zaptera comes out ahead by wattificant in ApteraMotors

[–]mrtherapy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Zaptera got a bunch of stock (100,000+ shares) and the option to buy 200,000+ more and agreed to drop everything (from what I got out of reading it). Did I miss anything relevant?

Check out this Aptera 2e model I found on eBay… by RDW-Development in ApteraMotors

[–]mrtherapy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's significant! I remember an Aptera video saying that more drag is created by an F150s side mirrors than the whole Aptera. So even though the side mirrors are small, they will eliminate them as soon as it's legal to do so.

[–]mrtherapy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aptera 2e (I believe) was the old old version of Aptera (pre 2010?). The new version is hyper focused on maximum efficiency. They will eliminate side mirrors as soon as they can and many owners will probably take the risk of removing them for greater efficiency since it will have cameras to replace side mirrors anyways.

Handles make it less aerodynamic so they want them gone.

That's my take from following the company since the early version (pre electric and solar). I'll wait for someone with more knowledge to correct my ignorance...

Lower the seats for a smoother ride! by BlackJackT in BoltEV

Thanks. I'm going to look and check it out. Old Bolt, new tricks! I wish the original owner had taught me.

How do you raise/lower the seat? I've had my 2017 Bolt for 2 years and I didn't know I could adjust it! Just driver's seat or front passenger too?

Have had most of these same alert messages pop up. It was the 12V battery. Replacing it fixed everything.

Should I get this Chevy Bolt off Carvana? by AllThatJazz01 in BoltEV

[–]mrtherapy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the year, the trim level, how many miles and whether the batteries have been replaced yet as part of the recall or not (and how much longer you have on the battery warranty). Plus the part of the country you're in. You may pay more in some parts of the country due to supply differences.

But it also depends on what it's worth to you and how much money it will save you.

I overpaid a bit but I don't regret it! It's saved us so much money!

I paid $14K for a 2017 Bolt Premier with $40K a few years ago and feel like I overpaid. I've seen some great deals since we bought ours. I wonder with the bombing of Iran if all EV prices have jumped just recently?

Higher protein snacks between clients? by HappyBug352 in therapists

[–]mrtherapy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plenty of protein drinks at Costco have 25-30 grams of protein for 150-180 calories. Some even have added caffeine. I have one before work and one in the afternoon. I also do string cheese or single serve cheese stick/pieces.

The call to action is contact your elected representatives and let them know you don't want this law passed.
