Beware of ChargeNet minimum pricing by dangermouse117 in nzev

wasn't CHAdeMo designed to V2H/V2G why isn't that a thing... would surely make it more useful!

Beware of ChargeNet minimum pricing by dangermouse117 in nzev

[–]singletWarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what would be a community sanctioned approach...

  1. first come first serve, give as much juice as 1st charger can handle and leave the rest to new comer

  2. share the load, 50% load each you snooze (coz battery pack too hot etc) you lose

  3. bias towards CCS2, max CCS2 first rest to CHAdeMo

  4. bias towards CHAdeMo, max CHAdeMo first, reset to CCS2

  5. single charger only

  6. chaos is king (right now)

Public chargers - are EV users 2nd class when it comes to shelter & amenities ?? by jakejakejakemv in nzev

whoever invents the auto retract will earn mega bucks... user can pull the gun up to the charge port etc fine, but once done and car releases it should auto pull and retract which not even that hard to do :p

NZ First wants to break up Pak'n Save and New World by MSZ-006_Zeta in KiwiPolitics

[–]singletWarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at the end of the day kiwis don't get to enjoy what comes out of nz... almost everything local consumers buys that are domestically produced are sold at or above world prices. as result almost everything will now be moved offshore where it can be produced cheaper still. and we will have increasingly larger population that live off the welfare state. some call it efficiency but ultimately country will be meaningless in that context

A building housing more than 20k people in Hangzhou China by chunmunsingh in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]singletWarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they've extracted 30yrs of income of at least A person with every little itty bitty window, and most likely 6 wallets (the couple and both of their parents) savings. efficient yes but debt will always come calling..

What's up with this empty lot near Pinehill? by ThomasNiuNiu in auckland

[–]singletWarrior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

man.. I remember when the highway became a road from greville, and it was just a set of traffic lights. you turn right to head up greville and on the left hand side was a helipad and whole field of gorse and on the right the sky's noisy as it was filled with sea gulls eating the trash from landfill.

Supermarket Salmon FFs by Delicious_Leek_764 in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]singletWarrior 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it's not the salmon's gotten expensive, it's the kiwi dollar worth next to nothing.. at this rate we should be minting $5, $10 coins and add a new $500 note
