If you are down to 5 or 6 bars, that is below half. When you say the charge has stopped, did the light go out on the brick? Or is it just that all the bars are now lit? Full charge time on 120 + stock charger is 22 hours @ appr. +4 miles per hour. If you start below 1/2 charge then 9 or 10...

After a month of ownership I've driven 1,100 miles and added 10% to it's lifetime mileage total :lol: A/C works really well :)

It would seem so based on 1 answer in the Q&A section. Odd, they do not say anything in the specs. You would also need an adapter, female 10-30 to male reg. 120 plug...

I think if you put it in neutral and pushed it the first 50 feet every day you would make up any difference in mpge :lol:

The earlier turtle may have more to do with climbing the mountain than anything else. Climbing takes more power and you were near the end of charge so the higher current drops the voltage more.

Back in town and off to retrieve the Miev. Turns out they replaced bracket and bushings only, seems to work and not make a racket now :) . Spent 45 minutes at the midway charger for +8 miles of range and made it back with no bars and 2 miles on the meter <g>. Spent quite a while @ 60-65 until...

Found on the internets: When the speed of the motor is more than the synchronous speed, relative speed between the motor conductors and air gap rotating field reverses, as a result the phase angle because greater than 90° and the power flow reverse and thus regenerative braking takes place. If...

Look on ebay, there was one last week.

I believe they will wind up changing the compressor as well. I dropped tge plastic cover and put my hand on the thing as it ran, felt a rotating metallic rubbing which does not seem right to me! Anyway, I asked the service writer and was told they were removing the dangling parts and would not...

So, today I took it back to the dealer to look at the clanking A/C :roll: , seems to be the oft cited broken bracket. It stayed at the dealer and I motored home in an Outlander loaner. The trip over in the morning started with 67 miles on the meter and 69 miles to travel, the first half of...

Life of the CAR yes, the suggestion I was astounded by was the life of the DRIVER - biological unit which might live to 100 you know :)

Well, Elon is at root a capitalist. No matter what he says now, there is no way in hell he's going to give free charging for 30, 40 or 50 years based on a piece of a sales price at the beginning. If you are going to pay a monthly battery lease forever fine. But that's not what they are doing...

Buy charging for the lifespan of the DRIVER? "Over the DECADES" :shock: Son, what are you smoking or what planet are you on? :D

55K is impressive! While I'm not all that afraid to charge it often, the during the week usage is not that high per day. If I charge every day it could wind up spending more than 1/2 the time @ 100% charge unless I fiddle with the timer thing every night. Weeekends usage is higher and...

Two days of commuting totaled 34.6 miles with 35 left on the meter. Guess I'll go a third day, charge schedule Sun, Wed., Fri., Sat. :)

Is there a radiator? Thought it was just an a/c condensor. Suppose I could look, LOL :).

Ran around the county all day in 3 separate trips totaling 55.2 miles. Ended with 3 bars and 15 miles on the RR. Good practice for a trip back to the dealer next week for an A/C replacement under warranty (3.5 months left on the original 3yr. / 36K mile deal). Dealer is about 73 miles out, there...

"Freeway" no, but 45 is considered a moving road block around these parts :). Once you get out of the neighborhood which is a 1/2 mile of the 7.5 mile commute the speed limit is 50 or 45-55 depending on which road. Traffic generally moves at 50-60. Lot's of other areas even 60 is slow no...

Got it ;) Still had 26 on the clock after day 2, 1 bar under 1/2.

Mine is making a similar but not as severe noise :o . Luckily this 2012 entered service in September 2013 so it still has a few months of warranty coverage left. Owned it for two weeks :roll:
