Wow. Can't wait for the next video.
Best feeling cables.
I don't know about attractiveness, but having gone UK wide to N Scotland last couple of weeks, I am migrating towards Tesla. There are enough public chargers now. They work at the max rate for our Kona and nearly half price on Ionity. You can see why people buy Tesla.
Didnt have any good ideas for a video today then Dave? 😂
Sorry Dave but when we're watching videos about how attractive charges are, I think I'm done with this channel.
Lots of videos now about everything other than what's going on with Tesla atm.
Another big name has now just left and it looks like plenty of the heavy hitters are selling plenty of shares.
Even the hard core pumpers are pumping out smoke big time imo.
You’re so right….just after views, mind there are collectors of vintage petrol pumps.
Next up, top 5 burning cars...😂🤣😂
@@thisisnumber0 ICE or EV? 🙄
@@harrycummings6501EV, much more spectacular...😃
Totally agree with your findings on the Swarco chargers. Stopped at Tebay North on our way up to Scotland last Thursday and found them so easy and a delight to use. Also, the price was so much better than the other options on the M6.
You were at my local Flint Tesla in this film! Love the Tesla one there and obviously it’s cheap! The worst by a long way is InstaVolt the cables are just so stiff and unwieldy. EV point are good I agree
For anyone that gave this the thumbs up, there is an awesome video on YT 'My top 5 favourite washing up liquid bottle designs' - you'll love it... lemme find the link....
Cheers Dave
Don't even own an EV, but gotta admit the simplicity designed Tesla's charging points are the best. Easy to find and not eyesore, they could probably add an 8-inch interface screen for payments for non Tesla users and remain sleek.
My Ohme one at home is the best and cheapest :-)
I thought we were going full on daytime TV with and 'I left my wife for an EV charger' episode.
I know that aesthetics are subjective, but still. I'm not a Tesla fanboy, I don't own a Tesla, but still I think the Tesla Superchargers are the #1, so just let's agree to disagree. 😊 (Though, at ease of use, I prefer chargers where I can either pre-register och at least get an invoice at the end of the month. I.e.not Tesla.)
Scraping the barrel now, Dave.
Onwards and upwards, toilets and showers next...maybe a rabbit count or a rat hunt or both. Exciting times with electrickery.
Big blow for me, I use the AC units at Aldi 90% of the time at 25p kWh they are listed on the Shell app as 11kW however they have always delivered 22kW and are not shared. But recently they are only dispensing 6.5kW rending them useless for me plus you can only park for 1.5 hours at Aldi anyway.
I think it is important to give appreciation of our street furniture - it is something we all see every day, whether or not we drive and design is important. 99p1 would approve !
Beauty in the eye of the beholder , or aesthetic color bay scheme
Heh, I thought this was about the hardware, not the CPOs and their site designs. Was kind of confused at first...
Charge points, surely. The charger is in the car.
For AC yes, DC no.
Well done for adding fuel to the fire. EVangelists have a reputation for being boring. Eating cucumber sandwiches with the crusts cut off. Whilst waiting to charge. Now it seems that whilst eating a picnic they are quietly assessing the attractiveness of the EV charger.! Seriously?! I wonder how many ICE drivers assess the attractiveness of the petrol pump they didn't have to wait to use and viewed for just 5 minutes before being on the way with enough fuel to reach their destination without having to stop again to assess the attractiveness of the next pump!
Best charger is my one at home!!!
Swarco, New kid on the block, been in Grantham since at least 2020
Superchargers were so good practically. All Teslas reversed in, so drove out forwards, which is so, so much safer. The Americans obviously adopted driver’s side for the charging point. They didn’t need to be noticed by drivers - Tesla drivers knew where they were.
They now need to be taller to be a bit more noticeable, maybe? I will still hunt out the superchargers for the very few times I need to use a public charger. I don’t particularly go for aesthetics; practicality is more important to me, so any bright, catchy colour schemes would my order of the day - if I used them.
I know you don't like BP Pulse but all the new ones around here are like the Swarco but with an even bigger landscape screen in the front, clear and no squinting - very easy to use and 57p Being non-Tesla - I find Ionity brilliant at 47p on my RFID card/app and, the only open to all (Tesla) in Kent is in the departure area at the Channel Tunnel
I can’t believe I watched this. Interested in electric cars but this is dull.
Really? A bit sad, isn't it.
What is? You don’t have to watch if you don’t want to
Best looking charger?. What a waste of time. Scraping the bottom of the barrel for content, or what. I would unsubscribe from your channel, but I never subscribed in the first place. LOL
Hello mate
I don't care what they look like, cost and how easy they are to find and use are what counts. But on that basis the V4 was always going to win the only thing against it is that they are not under cover and are a bit hard to spot in a crowded car park.
Something I like about the electrify America stations here in the States is that they're wrapped in bright green neon lighting. A lot of them are tucked in corners of large parking lots so it makes them easier to find.
Before watching I predict Tesla V4 is the winner 🤷♂️😉
wrong hee hee!
