Thanks for sharing. I have two questions, the first is about noise, since you changed from OEM to Defender to Def PLatinum and now Nitto, which one do you think is better for cabin noise? Also, all your tests where in Conserve mode 70mph right?
For what I can see it's about $0.14 cheaper per KWh with the subscription, which means it pays up after the first 95KWh , like a 10%-85% session would pay for it.
I charge always at home but have a couple of road trips this summer and I will activate the subscription at that time I will...
Do you get the 12.99 linked to your car if you do the subscription or the only way to use that is to start the session from the Tesla App?
I almost never use SuperChargers but I have a couple of long road trips and want to make sure I take advantage of it
Super interested in this.
I am waiting on my OEMs to start making crazy noise to replace, only 10K miles on them now.
My original thought was to go to a 275/60/20, but then I don't like the idea of any recalibration or mentally calculating what is the real speed. And I really don't like the look...
Just sharing some information about my charging routine. I have 4 EVs and two level 2 chargers at my house. I also have a EV system capable of 11.6Kwh production without home batteries for excess production.
On my electric bill I pay about $0.11Kwh and get refunded half of that for the solar...
Sure, you have a lot of good points, and I didn't mean to imply that range it's not important, I meant is not the only factor, at least not for my case.
1) Some tires like the OEM don't last long and cost a lot so yes it's important, the Defender Plat seems that would be more expensive but last...
Thanks, I have asked several of the people that have changed to the platinum for a real range reading and I am still waiting on answers.. Some posted initial reads, which are obviously not enough data and also is when the tire is less efficient. Will see what is the range after more milleage...
Nice summary. Question, what was the source for the Mich. Defend. Platinum range?
I've seen several data in several posts, but none that had enough data to be a reliable reference. Some were showing 2.02 and 2.5 and 1.7, so it was kind of all over the place, what made you set it to 1.85?
I have a similar setup, but I carry a 50Amp extension instead of the 30Amp one and TT-30P adapter. Probably heavier and bulkier than yours.
Here is my list:
Original R1S charger
Tesla to J1772 adapter (obvious for places with Tesla destination chargers)
25ft - 50Amp Nema 14-50 extension
Adapter...
Best looking All Season I've seen so far. I was thinking on the Scorpion Pus AS3 but these look so much better. Won't get the same efficiency, but who cares!
