      no what they need to do is better explain how long it will take to charge your car depending on the charge current and people would stop using 7kw at public places because they are pointless

    Hi Dave, I think you are doing a great job on the EV news. We have a friend who works for a company which is responsible turning on and off the national grid. As you know the UK national grid is struggling to handle current needs, are all the current wind farms on land and off shore fully connected. UK major manufacturers who need massive amounts of electricity are suffering with supply and the cost of electricity these hand are tied. Yes we all know it’s down to the government to take a firm stand, but when a government wastes our money on a white elephant of a high speed rail line, this money would have been better spent on making the UK a world leader in the EV infrastructure. Major government spending needs to have the full backing of the general public before giving money away, I like to know how many politicians made money from this latest rail scandal. Going back to our friend who has hand on national grid switch, he’s sayings the government who ever it’s is in power may restrict the amount of vehicle at any household ? Back to EV chargers being damaged , mainly by thieves stealing the charging cables for scrap value, one answer would be to covert EV chargers from a cable to a socket so a vehicles could be charged using it’s own cable. Keep up the ground breaking work. Well we are a four car household with only one EV at the moment but it will have to change. Jay in Sheffield

    Great update as usual.
    I'm a non Tesla user and recently had a journey from Aberdeen to Derby return.
    Decided to use the East Coast route and planned my stops based on the Tesla open to all chargers.
    I took out the Tesla membership for a month, so one off charge of £8.99.
    Basically saved myself £11 on charging.
    Taking into account the cost of the membership I only saved about £1.60.
    However, it does show there are savings to be made.
    I should also mention that I took out a subscription to the Ionity Passport Power, £7 for the first month.
    I did 1 charge at Skelton lakes near Leeds.
    Charged at £0.43 instead of the normal £0.74 and saved my membership plus £3 in one charge.
    Normally only charge at home so it was an interesting experience.
    All charging was done to coincide with coffee breaks and none took more than 25 minutes.
    So no issues with charging speeds at any of the chargers, Tesla or otherwise.
    An no queues.

    Very interesting. Thanks Dave. Talk about legacy car makers Ford in particular. I was at the Everything Electric/Fully Charged show at Harrogate. Oh my the lack of people at the Ford stand stood out a mile in comparison to all the other brands. Who would have thought it 10 years ago. Please catch up Ford and join us in the 21st Century. You owe it to your workers.
    Your alternative is going to be like the 70s. Dinosaurs and Dino juice.
