What a coincidence, we are both dads. 🤣 Thanks. 🙏🏻

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed the video. You don’t have to live in a remote area. I would find it useful to find the bathroom from my bed in the middle of the night. 🤣

You're funny!🤣

@@notacarguy_au Thank you just reporting the facts mate

@@GregPacker-v4p Oh you're welcome, clearly it's factual that you are hi-la-rious! 🤣

Thanks Phil, hope you don't mind me calling you Phil. 😉 The weight loss is very intentional and may look sudden by these videos, but it's actually happening pretty slow and steady. ☺️ Ideally I'd lose another 10kg, but I don't think that will actually happen so whatever else I can lose and hopefully keep it off will be good for my health and lifestyle.

Hi Greg, I see you're new to the internet. Not sure you're doing it right. 🤷🏻

Telsa cars are a flop mate save yourself if you can hand it back and get a refund

@@GregPacker-v4p Oh no, some random account that was created a week ago is onto me,, whatever shall I do? 🤣

@@notacarguy_au seek the facts brother, tread well

@@notacarguy_au We have slow internet in our the country we in the Australias

Sorry, I can't help you with that. This is the first Neo I have tried so I don't know what the previous one was like, so can't compare. Then again, I think it's still on sale for just under $400 which is a really good price for a phone like this I rekcon.

Thanks, glad you liked the video. It's a shame these haven't had as good a discount for this time of year as some other phones have.

Yes, would be better with both. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Plodding along thanks. ☺️

Glad to have you back. ☺️

I am waiting. 🤣

Fair enough.

Thank you so much. You’ve almost perfectly nailed why I started this channel. 👍🏻🙏🏼🤣

@notacarguy_au keep on keeping on...I'll be back to visit.

My mail? What about my mail?

@@notacarguy_au I want your mail for sending something I've created for your channel and hoping to work with in future.

That would be interesting. I am not sure I could deal with a screen that small all the time. Handy for quick things, but I think most folks would still want the larger display too?

Possible

It's not even available in the US. That's why I'm ordering from India on ebay! $340usd

I bought this phone yesterday for $349 AUD. It seems like a great phone

It's what things cost in different countries. 🤷🏻 I just checked and it's on sale for $348 at most places here in Aus too at the moment. I recorded this video a few weeks ago.

I got this phone yesterday for 350aud on sale

I can’t be trusted with money. So no. 🤣

I see what you did there, always enjoy a good “dad pun”. 😉 Out of curiosity, what is the the issue with the intro?

I have no idea what you’re talking about. 😂

Try and veal and don't forget to tip your server. 😉

@@notacarguy_au how much you personally tip in Aus? I always do 25% to 30% of final bill incl GST but I make sure only exact person who served the table get it. If bill was $550 given him/her $138 to $165 and it gets direct deposited to them

Well. I was definitely entertained............... Lol

For $199, it’s a really good deal. Not sure that low light can be solved with firmware. Sometimes we are trying to fight the laws of physics there. 🤣 Very glad to hear you’re enjoying your new phone so much. 😀

Lucky you to get it for practically free. If your main goal is to have backup power for when there is an outage then yes, setting the reserve to 80% could be a good idea. Do you have solar or only the battery? We are lucky that we have solar and battery and we don't use that much power and so at least in Summer we can pretty much get away with living our lives as normal, even having AC on in two rooms all night. And we use maybe 70%-80% of the battery overnight before the sun comes up and we start putting power back in from the solar panels. So for us, we do use the battery for not having to use power during peak times (we haven't paid for power since we got the battery over a year ago) And we also are pretty well covered for outages. Of course if there is an outage we cut down on our power use overnight just incase it's cloudy the next day and the battery doesn't refill completely.

@@notacarguy_au We do you have solar, that we paid for. I agree, we likely could get away with using the powerwall off peak during the summer when the panels are generating electiricity, but in our overcast rainy winters and shorter days when we are using electicity for the heat pump and lights and such then we would want to be at 80% reserve for an outage.

🤣

Reasonable is a rather relative term. 🤣🤷🏻‍♂️ when folded in the bag it’s a triangle, but about the size of an A4 piece of paper. So not pocketable, but easy to store in the car. Not in the centre console or glove but in the boot or frunk if you have one. (That’s where I’m keeping mine. 😉)

Thanks John much appreciated. I will try and do the road trips still, but will be a bit more scarce as it's a challenge finding the time to do those.

@@notacarguy_au Understandable of course! Work and family comes first mate.

🙏🏼🤞🏻👍🏻

Thanks. 🤞🏻it all goes well. 😀

Thank you.

It’s interesting that you ask that. I did have the same thought. But I used and abused the phone for 3 weeks and no issues. Of course I can’t say how it would be over a year or two. But doing a short Google, didn’t suggest it was an issue for folks who have these phones long term.

It does feel a bit more “plastically” thank the Pro Max. But then again it’s about half the price and a lot lighter. So I guess I am not sure it’s a fair comparison.

@@notacarguy_au I guess only time would tell. I like the concept, btw, but when it's opened out, it's enormous, lol.

@@utha2665it is and yet it isn’t. Got used to it very quickly.

🤣

Thanks Rev, glad you've found it helpful. Hope your trip goes well on Xmas. I think the charging situations is only getting better and better very quickly.

Yes, the manual was not read.

You do what you think is going to work for you, but I think you're wrong. I don't know many cars of any type that have 1000km range, do you? This whole 1000km range thing I think is silly. I am sure that there are people out there who could benefit from that kind of range in a single battery/tank, but most people don't even remotely need it. Also this was over a year ago, things have only gotten better. 🤷🏻

@ my thought process is if you're trying to keep the battery between 20% and 80% which you should be doing for the longevity of the battery. That gives you anywhere from 500km to 650km of usable range depending on how you drive it. It also means you have 20% in reserve in case of emergency and a further 20% if you plan ahead and charge to 100%. Youd be able to do your melbourne to sydney trip with one recharge stop which means no planning ahead, just pull off and recharge whenever you need a break from driving, instead of timing your breaks around the car needing a charge. For me personally i live in perth so i dont imagine the charge network will be as good as melbourne and certainly not as good from perth to albany as it is from melbourne to sydney. The getting better bit is exactly why I'm thinking a hybrid might be the better option.... The byd shark is looking very enticing.

@@matt09ward Different strokes for different folks. I find generally the car can go longer before it needs a top up than my bladder needs an "empty down"? 🤣 The family and I did a trip this April for Melbourne to Gold Coast and back. We found it's totally doable, but think we aren't really the "drive for two days" type family. Regardless of how we drive there, I think we will fly longer distances like that next time. ☺ In regards to the 20%-80% state of charge for the battery longevity. Our car has a LFP battery, so not an issue charing up to 100% regularly. We only do to around 80% on long drives as it takes longer to get from 80%-100% so quicker to stop charging at 80% and get going.

I have looked into something like this, but the last time I ran a giveaway it was way too much trouble than it was worth. Having said that, I may change my tune as it gets closer to the time that they all expire and I need to spend them in a hurry. ☺🤷🏻

You make a very good point, though from my perspective this didn't cost me any money. But I think I am trying to be a bit too clever about that, so you're right. ☺️

@notacarguy_au aha, then you're right! Also love to see you back on the deed your vids are great as always!

@@ThePantheons Thanks, really appreciate the support. 🙏🏻

HI, no not all, happy for you to put up your code. Glad to hear you're enjoying your Model Y. ☺️

Hope you’re enjoying your new EV. I’m not sure how I could giveaway the credits and would have to check the T&C if I am allowed to. I tried a giveaway a while back on a previous video and frankly it was a bit of a mess. At the risk of sounding a bit selfish, it really wasn’t worth the hassle from my perspective. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@notacarguy_au I am. It's truly amazing how different the model y drives compared to all the ICE cars I've driven before. I'd have imagined you'd ship to a different address on your order for but I could be trivialising things. Regardless, thanks again for your content Lee. As I commented in your earlier vid, rushing out content for the sake of meeting schedules is gonna have a negative effect on you so trust that your viewers are gonna be happier with quality over quantity. (and keep them bloopers coming! They're as entertaining as the actual content!) Love your work! Looking forward to the next one, whenever it releases. :)

I used referral credits for them. I can’t afford to buy anything in this economy. 🤣😭

That makes two of us. 🤣

It's a descriptive start so vision impaired can follow along. More people should do it. Sidenote: two taps on your right arrow key and you miss most of it...

What Simon Said. 😀 Glad you like the videos otherwise. 😀

I think that is done via the Bluetooth or keys section in the car menu. But I’m not sure. Sorry.

You're funny. 🤣

It was s decent chunk, but I'm guessing we can fill it if we need to down the track. At least for now, we are still very happy with the lock.

You're welcome! 😊

Really good, I only top it up about every 6 months and it's about at 20% when I do that.

I totally agree with that.
