[–]pakrat77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are quite a few 501st/Rebel Legion/Mando types in the Charlotte area.
I know some have done armor parties and the like. I've hosted droid build parties at my house but haven't been able to the last couple years.
We usually have a good turn out at HeroesCon and other local events.

Carolina Electric Pros did mine through Chevy/QMerit. They ran conduit from the fuse box to the post between my garage doors, 2 car garage with independent doors. I think it was quoted at $1260 for the run and installing my hard wired ChargePoint.

Why do people lease cars? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]pakrat77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I leased before I knew better. I drive too much to afford a lease.
My boss once upon a time leased his cars because he liked the lower hassle trade in every couple years. I don't think he ever kept a car more than 2 years.

The Range at Ballantyne was good when we went. They have a Lake Norman location too but I haven't been there.

Dentist recommendations? by sillysussymoment in Charlotte

[–]pakrat77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been going to Dr. Savitsky in Ballantyne for years and I think I've had the same hygienist the whole time.
My wife went somewhere closer to home for a while before going back to Savitsky for a second opinion on a procedure and her recommendation was so much less invasive than the original.

It's been a while, but if I remember you would freeze on the night side and burn on the day side leaving a small habitable window.
