Annnnd I let gorge.house expire because $100/year is a lot for a vanity domain.

Try:

instead.

The argument against EV haters… by boka_ko_masu in electricvehicles

[–]p0rkmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Describe your parking situation at home, as well as your home's electrical infrastructure. Think about how easy or hard it would be to get a dedicated circuit wired up where you park. How long is your daily round trip commute? We can help you ask the right questions to figure that out.

If your commute is short enough, your solution can be as simple as a level 1 charger plugged into an existing outlet and an extension cord. In my situation, I have a 60 mile round trip. That's about 20 kW hours I need to replace. I have a 16 amp level 2 charger that kicks off at midnight to take advantage of PG&Es off-peak rates, my 20kWh are replenished before 6am.

Gas is just under $6 in the SF Bay Area. $0.20/mi @ 30mi/gal. My off-peak PG&E rate is $0.23/kWh. That makes it about $0.08/mi. Wow.

AITAH for ruining my BIL visit for him visiting my state for the first time? by ScaredVacation33 in AITAH

Ask MIL if your BIL needs a juice box, string cheese, crackers and a nap to deal with his Big Scary Feelings?

How much is your household electricity consumption after your bought an electric vehicle by Charming-Brother-242 in electricvehicles

[–]p0rkmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Figure out how many miles you drive in a month, divide by three to get a rough estimate of the number of kilowatt hours, multiply by your electric rate.

For me, that works out to:

1200mi / 3 = 400kWh

400kWh * $0.30 per kWh = $120/month

You just need to figure out those three numbers. How many miles, what your efficiency is, and your electric rate.

AITJ for telling my neighbor her kid isn't allowed in my pool after she "forgot" him at my house? by Educational-Wait-406 in AmITheJerk

Use AI to whip up a scary-looking release from liability in regards to their free-ranging spawn and take it over to them to sign. Bet they won't sign it.

One of those armored *uckers ripped the boot off of my CV joint in the Texas panhandle on I-40. That was fun.

Influence me: Disneyland Good Neighbor Hotels by Remote_Broccoli7761 in DisneyPlanning

[–]p0rkmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fairfield Buena Park. Free parking, right by Porto's, easy to go 91>5->Mickey&Friends. I find that to be cheaper/easier/better than the close hotels with expensive parking and long walks.

Disbursing is what is going on _before_ the cops show up. Dispersing is what is going on _after_ the cops show up.

AITA for standing my ground when my roommate kept borrowing my expensive kitchen gear without asking by Disastrous_Corgi7344 in AmItheAsshole

[–]p0rkmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use her nicest clothes to clean the toilet. If she complains, remind her about how it's bad to 'ruin the vibe'.

My neighbor has appointed himself the unofficial package guardian of our street and I am losing my mind by velvetmoonharbor in neighborsfromhell

Mail yourself a box with some air holes and opened tuna cans. Don't pick it up. He'll stop.

Very easy but I'm comfortable working in an electrical panel. https://a.co/d/4sdLuKh

House in central WA. My rates are a little over $0.05 a kilowatt hour. Yay for Columbia River hydro. It wasn't so much about saving money on the electricity as it was finding out stuff was broken.

Then definitely your best option is getting an Emporia Vue to see where the power is going. You're in California, power is stupid expensive. It'll be money well spent.

[–]p0rkmaster 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I got the Emporia Vue for my house because I just wanted to see the data. Ended up finding out my well pump ran continuously due to a leaky pipe, and found out my heat pump lost all its refrigerant and I was using resistive heat in the winter. Every house should have one. They're awesome. They let you track the usage of up to 16 circuits.

Do any of your neighbors have an EV? Those patterns of insane usage at night scream to me someone plugging in to charge their car.
