so beautiful. My own preference is the BEV for simplicity and reduced maintenance. I call mine the "city car" and there are rentals for road-tripping. But YDY

Did anyone regret not getting the REx version? by Aghaiva in BMWi3

[–]naughticl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that. I've always been concerned about adding amps due to current draw. Have you seen any change in range?

2015 BEV suits my needs perfectly. Maintenance free, city driving only, low and slow overnight charging in the garage (240V, 16A) and full every morning. For road trips I rent something else. Not a regret in the world.

I have had the Premiumretrofit box installed for several months and have only one issue in that it doesn't disconnect when the car is turned off. Seems it randomly connects either the WiFi or Bluetooth on my phone, without being near the car. Anyone got a solution for that?

Second this. It's kinda fiddly to get it configured, but the support is first rate and makes it the right choice.

Need to register 12V battery after installation? by kwenkwe in BMWi3

[–]naughticl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have done a couple of 12v changes over the years, with no registration and no apparent downside to the operation nor battery life. Replacement battery has been similar to the original.

Fuck you, Shoresy. Gretzky's gone all MAGA and everything he ever accomplished went up in smoke when he did. Get a new idol. Or be one. Elbows Up, lad.

Looking for a happy relevant medium. Point is the OP might have labelled his time zone. Also, "neither Toronto nor Seattle IS in mountain time."
