    No Grid Off-Grid Cabin with Solar

    Even if PowerShare is a no-go you can always utilize the 240v outlet in the bed of the Cybertruck, run to a transfer switch. A transfer switch would also give you the option of plugging in a generator should you want yet another fall-back.

    467 Miles Estimate Range (over 130 mile trip)

    What @Woodrick said. One of the fascinating things about the telemetry provided by EV's is that they allow us to easily see quite small changes in elevation. Roads that seem entirely "flat" overall turn out not to be, once driven in both directions. Going one direction over a mountain is...

    Site Downtime: Our Apologies

    Glad and thankful that one of my favorite forums is back. To everyone involved in administering the site... thanks for all you do!

    Brock, I'm honestly not seeing a meaningful increase in noise from the SA print that you posted. Looks to me like you've got a noise floor of around -108 dBm whether your Cybertruck outlets are active or not. The right-hand half of your print shows a bit more (very weak signal) activity in the...

    Do you have to constantly verify your humanity?

    I'm seeing it on some other forums, too. Apparently it's the software (or its latest revision). Agree it's aggravating... especially since the "check" is so repetitive.

    I'm running an ICOM ID-5100 with the detachable head mounted (suction cup mount) under the Cybertruck's screen. Mic just rests in one of the center console charging bays. Antenna is a Tram Browning 1191 Through-Glass unit (instantly solves the question of how to route coax into the cabin; and...

    Thanks for the very kind words, guys. Much appreciated! LaJuan (@Ljhughes8 ), the two apps I use to capture telemetry from the Cybertruck are Tessie and Stats. @koolio , you can't see it very well in that one photo with my bike on the trailer, but the front wheel of the bike is captured by an...

    Meandering like a drunken sailor, the road unwinds in a series of mini adventures. Tracking across Virginia’s rolling landscape, hard up against its western Piedmont, the ancient topography here is exactly what you’d expect in the foothills of the Blue Ridge. Off to my right, the darkened...

    After 2 months, my biggest surprise has been efficiency... dual-motor with core wheels

    Model 3 (pre-refresh) Cd: 0.225 Cybertruck Cd: 0.340 As @Outdoors mentioned, aerodynamics become a larger and larger factor as speeds increase. So your Model 3's efficiency will pull away from the Cybertruck's as you go faster and faster (or, will plummet somewhat slower is probably a better...

    BRICKED less than 60 days in....

    Mine became non-responsive a few days and a few hundred miles into ownership. Tesla replaced the rear drive unit (AWD truck) and all has been well since. Best vehicle I have ever owned. Even ICE vehicles have a higher rate of failure when brand new. Just the nature of the beast with...

    Cybertruck Battery Degradation after 11-months, 29,000-miles is still 0%

    Tesla packs have both a top and a bottom buffer - charge levels not accessible by the user. I'd venture the top buffer in the 4680 may simply be more generous than 2170 or 18650 cell-type packs. Although I see some slight behavioral differences between the 4680 pack in my Cybertruck relative...

    Cybertruck Battery Degradation after 11-months, 29,000-miles is still 0%

    I'm a month behind the OP - ten months and 11,000 miles. But, likewise, no degradation being reported at present. I also see impressive efficiency. A clear dip during the winter. And also with my monthly mini road trip (200 high speed miles) to Richmond for a rifle match. But even with...

    Egg my CT for $, what could go wrong?

    So you want to give voice to all those twisted souls who think it's okay to damage someone else's property? Yeah, there's a brilliant idea.

    Lemon law & trade questions

    No experience with Tesla. But I had a BMW replaced under my state's Lemon Law statute. First step is to research and understand your state's specific law. That statute will detail the specific criteria where the law gets triggered. It's also important to understand that most (all?) Lemon...

    Imminent HOV changes

    HOV lanes are the result of local and state governments being consistently behind the curve on development. Counties are happy to encourage development - indeed, they often promote it via tax breaks for the developers. Alas, when the inevitable new drivers show up on the roads, years ahead of...

    How best to wire in 12VDC accessories, Like Ham Radio.

    I'm using a relabeled (and slightly cheaper, but no longer available) version of this: https://powerwerx.com/ss30dv-desktop-dc-power-supply-powerpole?srsltid=AfmBOor9Db6Hlr5IF1Vw8ZwA2Jf0WRccI9DJdU46St91rjiWOuhhG607

    How best to wire in 12VDC accessories, Like Ham Radio.

    Good luck with the General ticket. That will open up many additional opportunities for you! I'm running an Icom ID-5100 as my mobile VHF/UHF rig. Had it in my Model 3 for a couple years, running to a mag mount antenna on the trunk lid. After picking up the Cybertruck last year - and since...
