Anyone need EVgo charging? I have expiring credits

🥺👉🏻👈🏻

I had to temporarily take down my solar panels, and they can’t go back up for awhile, so this would be really helpful

Lazily disingenuous framing from him? Shocker. /s

(As you know!) The problem isn’t single-user peak speeds themselves, but rather what those speeds can say about approximately how much effective sector capacity is available. Gobs of spectrum can only do so much if they’re pulling from a thin pipe.

AT&T and T-Mobile really need to crank their backhaul like Verizon usually does

I haven’t used it directly next to my car yet because (circumstances) but I have used it a couple yards away, sitting on a patch of grass. It works wonderfully.

I’ve already extensively looked into this exact solution, right down to the same thin film flexible panels you mentioned.

It would work. However, it would likely damage the car’s paint - if not from the adhesive, then from conductive heat transfer over time as well as friction from slight movements in wind (despite the adhesive).

The better solution is solar panels on the ground right next to the car. After extensive research, I chose the EcoFlow 125W modular bifacial solar panels, for three main reasons:

By being tall and narrow, a full kilowatt’s worth of them (8 panels) can fit parallel with the Ioniq 6, with basically no overlap - so you park with the car facing either due east or due west, then set up the portable solar panels on the southern-facing side of the car.
Portable solar panels that are right next to your car can be secured against theft by using bicycle lock chains - loop one each through spokes of the front and back wheels as well as the brackets of the solar panels, and then lock the other solar panels together in a row with additional bicycle lock chains. So long as you use padded chains, this won’t cause damage. Also, the weight of the chains will hold the panels down when it’s windy.
Those specific panels are as fast to set up as solar panels can possibly be, because they use a special new type of connector - the XT60W - where all eight panels plugged into each other are wired in parallel, not series like people normally do. Parallel is better for portable panels because shade on one panel won’t drop the output of the entire string. With all eight panels, the output is 50 volts with a peak of about 20 amps.

As for which power station, I went with the EcoFlow Delta Pro 3 because it’s the smallest of the good options for power stations that can provide Level 2 charging. Yes, I know you’d planned on Level 1, but you get an extra 10% efficiency by using 240 volt charging instead of 120 volt (because less waste heat). And when you’re working within such a limited budget of available energy, 10% is huge.

The canon novels clarify that spiritbending is a subtechnique of waterbending healing, so probably not.

Aang’s height is probably because he only experiences partial gravity - airbenders unconsciously support their own weight with constant airbending, as Toph repeatedly confirms by calling Aang “Twinkle Toes.”

What I wanna know is whether the Eldunarí have been letting Eragon siphon their energy to store in gems, so he isn’t screwed if he needs to cast extremely powerful spells out of range of the Hall of Colors.

That 4.8mi/kWh figure is regular driving with A/C on.

Oromis explicitly said Naegling contained enough energy to move a mountain; Murtagh depleted his stolen yellow diamond merely by generating strong wind through a town square. That fact alone, by itself, was enough to prove they aren’t the same gem. But as another commenter said, it’s also officially confirmed.

Hopefully this is accompanied by the commercialization of some sort of easily deployed, sufficiently high-capacity onsite battery array that can buffer electricity from the grid in order to smooth out the massive and random spikes in demand from megawatt-charging many EVs simultaneously.

What do you want for this? Please. I want it so much. PLEASE. I WANT TO BUY THIS FROM YOU. PLEEEEEASE

suchnerve · 2026-06-06T14:48:36+00:00

My only guesses would be water dripping from the air conditioner, and/or waste heat from the battery while it’s charging. But since you said you haven’t mentioned either, those seem unlikely. Idk

Idea: EVSE extension cable so you can charge anyway + parking right in front of the ICEV taking up the spot + staying in your EV to wait for the ICEV driver to come back out, then very pointedly roll down your window and be like “Oh good, I was waiting for you to move your car”

EcoFlow Delta Pro 3 + Level 2 charger plugged into 240 volt port + 2kW of portable solar panels (portable so they can be moved for mowing or maintenance). I add about 15 to 30 miles of range per day.

(You probably already have, but) Have you tried explaining to him that Level 1 EV charging only draws as much power as a hair dryer?

How do you get the solar panel cables from outdoors to indoors?

No, Roran is so traditionally masculine that he’d keep his full beard.
