On Tesla-NY Times Dispute Reveals Different Truth

Max; your story offers some much needed clarity on this issue, and I can personally confirm the steep learning curve!

I switched to an all electric motorcycle (Zero DS) last year after decades on conventiona motocycles.

I reckon it too the better part of 6 months to really get over the range anxiety, noting however that mine is an older machine with much less range than current gen. I had several instances where my day gat screwed up because I miscalculated or fell into the trap of not anticipating the worst (ie heat, wind etc), but its was exhilerating to be opening up some new nueron paths and re-learning how to drive.

It takes a little time, but IT and EV technology are making it easier by the second. Zero released an incredible app yesterday for example, which would make my life so much easier with access to better data and the ability to manage performance characteristics form a smart phone.Wish it worked on 2010 model!

On How Solar Power and EV’s Will Save Us

Too tru Jim, too true.

Stay tuned; although I recharge my bike at home and have a PV system, the plan (soon) is to actually use the 4kWh storage capacity in the bike to optimise my export ratio. Should be in an interesting experiment.

Hi Jim

Oustanding! Great to connect with other similar efforts.

Some great work has been done locally through a group called Beyond Zero Emissions too.
