How about this then,I thought I’d found out a secret charging trick.
Turns out it’s already a thing.
I’ve got to work with 6 miles left,and over 1kw .
Onto one preheat also.
It’s called burping the battery,gutted I didn’t find it first ?.

Nice... it's pretty easy if you're a miser with the cabin heat. I've been getting 42-44 regularly this winter.

I just wish I didn’t have any hills here in wales.

But then there'd be no welcome in the valleys...

Big 40 club. Nice. The Ampera-e & Chevy Bolt EV, still selling well in Norway. But had a price reduction lately. Check my latest Youtube video - brand new Ampera-e. Just love driving that EV.

Almost the big 50,just ran out of road to work 😂

Well done. Suffer from cold buttocks, do you???!

Level 3 is a feature which regenerates heat from your buttocks back into the battery for extra range.

Watch out for toasted testicles. Overheating them cuts your sperm count - just thought you'ld like to know!

I had the opportunity to get into the 40 mile club today, had to go somewhere that was 22.5 miles away, so thought it would be a perfect chance, and i did it properly - no petrol used at all. Drove in D all the way used cruise control where i could, had the radio on but no heating/cooling, had 2 miles range left when i got home, quite pleased with my effort, obviously i'm going to try and do better next time, i think
50 is possible but it's going to be tough!

 

[smokie]

Oh yes! I did that during lockdown on a plunge weekend with Octopus when they were paying me to take electricity, and forgot to post it!! I needed to empty the car so went trundling up to the M4 and cruise controlled through the 50mph roadworks and back. All pretty level and no traffic around to interfere. (The next day I also needed to empty it so I went for a proper old fashioned blat around, sport mode all the way but indecently thirsty - but much more fun!! )

Just over a week into Ampera ownership and got 43.8miles, engine fired up just as I exited the motorway but took the photo when I stopped at the lights so lets just ignore the 0.2mi of petrol...
