	The problem is bigger than rented properties, it applies to any property without off street parking adjacent to the house. It's not just a cost issue it's also a matter of convenience. If you can't...

	I agree that range anxiety goes away after a few months with an EV, and I am now OK with running the SoC down below 10% on longer trips. But it's not quite as simple as "take a break every few hours a...

	@temperature_gradient I had two installers willing to work with our existing hot water tank, which isn't designed for a Heat Pump, though it is already pressurised. I understand it won't be quite as ...
