On this point, does the charge point app only show public chargers? Id imagine a hotel or any establishment would be able to make a note if the charger is available to anyone or just their customers
That's a good point, and that's exactly why I'm asking. My original plan was to get an ev after purchasing a house in roughly a year, but my current car has kicked the bucket. There's plenty of fast chargers nearby that would work for me, especially since I drive so little (less than 300 miles a month). I realized that this hotel has a charger after I already made the ev decision, and thought it would be convenient since I won't be charging too often. Plus, after living next door to the hotel for years, I've never seen it used(which is why I didn't know it existed) , with charge point showing it's only used like once or twice a week. I'll probably just end up using this as a supplemental charger, and mostly charge at the fast stations a bit farther away.
Yeah, I think thats the protocol for the fast chargers. Stay with/near the car and leave as soon as its done. Thanks for sharing!
I was thinking about that, and it seems this is a very low usage charger. Chargepoint app shows its last use was 5 days ago. As for low volume times, that makes sense.. I'll probably just charge in the morning and have it gone before their check in time. Maybe I could even leave a note on the dash for them to call me if they want me to move it
Public level 2 charging etiquette question
Hey Everyone, I'm about to buy my first EV (2020 chevy bolt) and there is a hotel next to my apartment with a lvl 2 charger. I called and asked if Its open for the public and their response was "Technically its only for guests but as long as you don't hog the charger I don't see any problem with using it". They seemed busy so I didn't ask anything else, but for a slow charger like this, what is considered too long to charge? My plan was to just leave it there for like 4 hours once a week, but would you count that as "hogging" it? If it matters, they do have 2 charging slots, but only one is functional and they don't know if/when the other will be fixed
Hmm I didn't notice that at first look. I'm not sure if what direction of the broken circle matters, or if it's based on what side its on. Heck it could be that the second one just got printed upside down. So I can't say for sure if they are actually opposite or not. If you have a multimeter, you can test it to be sure
Voltage is the same, and it provides enough amps, however if you see the little circle symbols (3 circles connected with lines, 2 are labeled + or -) the polarity is reversed, meaning it wont work.
Team Fortress 2 crashing
Might be the new summer update, but TF2 has been crashing shortly after joining a game. Has this been happening to anyone else? I'm running Nobara
That's unfortunate :/ yeah mine is showing it's age, and the headphone jack doesn't work properly anymore. But it was a great phone while it lasted. Thinking about moving to the oneplus n30 or the moto 5g stylus
I'm running lineage OS on my moto one 5g ace. Main reason was to upgrade it to the most recent version of android, since it wasn't getting any updates beyond 11. No drawbacks here, haven't run into any bugs or anything. But I'm also not a power user or anything, just trying to extend the life of my phone
If you're happy with your prints, then no need to calibrate IMO. I think calibration is only necessary when you see a problem or want the best possible prints you can get. But personally, I don't care too much if a print isn't perfect, as long as it works
New brand seems reasonable. I still don't even do that, but I also don't care too much if it's not a perfect print haha
Do people actually tune their printer for each new roll of filament?
I see a lot of people claim they tune/calibrate their printer any time they use a new spool of filament. But does anyone actually do this? It feels like a waste of time when filament is so consistent, even between brands. I can understand doing it for specialty rolls, but for basic pla? Seems unnecessary
Nice! Same color scheme as my in progress voron. Purple looks to be the exact same shade too, is it polylite asa?
For me it's Stardew Valley. Very relaxing and I can actually pay attention to both the show and the game. Also TF2, but I can only pay attention to what I'm watching during respawns or while waiting for a game
