Is Harwood the next door estate to yours!Reached -7 up here last night. Wife charged the Leaf overnight and has driven to Harewood house. No drama, she used heating, heated seats, heated rear windscreen, radio, indicators and other electrical features without issue. Road didn't break up under the pressure of all those electrons either
Actually battery performance in the cold, though not your wifes thing, but an interesting thing all the same. Not sure how modern stuff performs in comparison the lead acid, in cars or even solar systems as my batteries will be in an open barn.Not quite, it's about 45 miles away. I did ask her if she could measure battery, tyre and tarmac deterioration on her travels as some friends on a forum are interested. She told me to get a life and some more intetesting hobbies, or words to that effect
45 miles, no chance, it would have needed recharging 20 times, 16 new batteries installed and 4 fire engines if she'd have gone that far in it, not to mention it would still be on fire eleventy million years later.Not quite, it's about 45 miles away.

-7 C or F ?Reached -7 up here last night. Wife charged the Leaf overnight and has driven to Harewood house.

We work in C these days.
Does the leaf have a battery pre heater...we've found it makes quite a bit of difference to the range in our EV when it's cold.
-21.66C ?
A diesel or petrol heater?
FCUK?My boss lives in Chicago, he took Monday off (or rather it was Martin Luther King day so used his holiday) to attend to his frozen plumbing......
Yes, we deal in Celsius. As a slight departure, I saw this map the other day, UK is listed as mixed, I estimate distances in miles and feet and inches, but buy stuff by the metre, then order som whitworth grub screws

Metric's for people who can't do Fractions, just shows how stupid the world has become.........My boss lives in Chicago, he took Monday off (or rather it was Martin Luther King day so used his holiday) to attend to his frozen plumbing......

Metric is base 10 just like money….imperial is as you said fractions and not intuitive. And I can do fractions….I guesstimate in feet and inches, but measure in metric. Though in machining thou works too
It all went wrong when we switched to metric weights, measures and currency...suddenly the whole world was on to us diddling them ...it was all down hill for us after that
