You have some anti EV people here, but elsewhere, you have BYD fanboys vs Tesla fanboys, Tesla early adopters who shame the new Tesla owners claiming they have no charging etiquette 😂 Edited August 15, 2024 by Lethalstrike ↡ Advertisement 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesla owner kbkp why this Atto 3 owner so inconsiderate to turn off the isolator possibly affecting the rest of IKEA's AC chargers.

There are many cases of ice burning up when parking also. Similar to ev. Most of the time it's not the battery. Be it ice or EV. It's the wiring. Or some components which use power is faulty, it over heat . Example the 📷. Or last time nissan sunny got 1 version 1 of the pump got fault. Which cause quite a number to burn up. This is just 1 example. Another great example is those modifications esp those High amp speaker etc etc. Ws A do mod lay wire here and there. Driver drive to WS B Do servicing and repair. WS b dun know about those changes. Some wire is damage and expose causing short circuit etc etc and burn up. Take a look at those pab which burnup. How many of them are illegal mod? If u take their battery out and leave them alone. Will those battery burn on their own? When we pinpoint ev Burning up to battery fault. We are saying those battery will burn on their own? I not expert . But I dun believe so. Either the car and wiring stuff is not design properly. Or illegal stuff are done. My 0.2 cents only Errr there is a case in China.. man brought his PMD battery into the lift, battery burned up, man half dead or burnt to a crisp. Thought the video was shared here a few weeks ago. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact is that charging ports are a shared resource. There are substantial guai lan kias in the world outside with little consideration. I'm just talking locals, not even immigrants with different attitudes towards shared resources. Especially as the world becomes more and more hypercompetitive in every single thing. That's why my next vehicle will be hybrid. And then by near 2040, people would have somewhat calmed down with threshold adoption of BEV. Then it will be BEV. People who are early adopter preachers are just as annoying as vegan/religious evangelists. You don't see Buddhist monks preaching about veganism, even though they been doing it for almost 2 centuries. Cos they know it's done by insecure people 😆 4 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's silly to have these sort of tribal identity just over a particular EV brand or even worse, over an automotive propulsion method. It's ok to be passionate over something and to bond with like-minded individuals, but you don't preach and put yourself on a high horse and say EV is the best thing since sliced bread and every other propulsion option sucks 🤣 There's quite a few EV drivers in this thread and the Electric car thread, including myself. But we don't become obnoxious about it. There's really some pros and cons seldom spoken about until you've actually owned one. And you don't actually save much by driving an EV here (partly offset by higher insurance and road tax). For me, what I truely enjoy is the drive itself (instant pick-up & silence) and I have regular access to charging from Mon-Fri. Saves me the stupidity to purposely drive somewhere just to pay parking and do DC charging once or twice every week. I've mentioned that once there are enough EVs on the roads and I have to start queuing for chargers, I will change to a Lexus petrol hybrid 🤣 And no need to preach la. Sibeh annoying. I have my buddies ask me why I stupid buy EV (the skeptics), some ask me for more opinions on actual experience of ownership (the fence sitters) and last group is if I can recommend any sales consultant who can give best price (the convinced). Usually I just smile and share my honest opinions. And not forgetting we're just renting from government for 10 years, preach so hard for what leh?
