Another great video Mark! I myself have had my ID.3 for a year next month and also purchased without having a home charger as I live in a flat. With public charging at the start it was amazing as it felt as if there were very little EV's on the road.. however almost 12 months on and there are vastly more on the road however this doesn't annoy me or hasn't put me off in any way as I've just adapted to know what chargers are generally less busy than others in my area and utilise the free charging at work whenever I'm in the office. Personally I still recommend people get an EV even if they're unable to charge at home but this is just me!

Mark, enjoyed your video and seeing how others are dealing with charging their EV without having to install a system. We got an Ioniq 5 6 months ago and love it aolng with not having to visit gas stations weekly. We live in Los Angeles California in an apartment with a garage using the 120v outlet to charge and we pay an additional $25.00 a month for it. We charge the car 3 to 4 times a week and it is working out great for us. We don't have far to go for work so charging during the week builds it up for our weekend adventures. We have free charging from Electrify America for another 18 months and will us it when needed.

Have had my tesla model 3lr since March 2021 and loving it. I don't do many miles at all and just use my local free supermarket charger. So far I have only used a super charger once but mainly use my granny charger overnight at cheap rate electricity. One thing I have noticed is if you bury your right foot on the juice pedal for a long period of time a 40 mile trip will use up more than 100 miles of battery.

Good video and some good points, i also see a lot of issues where 3rd party chargers are either not working or are full, so glad i have the Tesla and Superchargers, although when they allow other non Tesla vehicles to charge i fear the worst.........i do have a home charger but take the challenge every week to get free charges on my travels, i have 1 50kw charger 7 miles from me that is very volatile (but free), some days it works others it has a massive line waiting for the free charge so i go home plug in and take the hit to my bank balance..overall i cant complain and i do usually 400-500 miles a week for free (i have a 7kw charger at work and i charge overnight when others are at home as i stay away) although through the day it again is first come first served. i also used to use the one at Bents Garden centre that i recognise from your videos but again getting more popular..... also i do now see a lot of high value - 40 - 50p PKW chargers not populated as others also look for the free ones, Falkirk FC stadium has loads of fast chargers that were free to use before and always used, now you have to pay and they are 90% empty all of the time.....what a waste.

I got a home charger in 2010 when I got the 2010 Tesla Roadster. In 2014 I upgraded the charger when I got the 2015 Tesla Model S and after buying the 2013 Chevrolet Volt. In 2015 I also got a Nissan Leaf. Then in 2023 I got a Tesla Model Y. I just realized how little I've used the home charger since 2010. Just about always I end up charging for free at work. Nice to have the home charger as a backup. But it just sits there almost completely unused.

I've just checked, The BEV chargers which were free and then 25p per kWh are now 87p per kWh! Instavolt which was 55p per kWh is now 85p per kWh! The long and short of it is if you can charge at home, great! Overnight off peak for 7p per kWh If you can't and you have no option at work, then you are stuck paying a minimum of around 50p per kWh now on the public network.

A 2011 Audi S3 using V-Power fuel and now it’s on E10 fuel as the other cost is stupid. Drum roll please………… £2989! Yep, I keep a total record of my petrol costs, every single one of them since 2014. So, I think you’ve done well Mark! 😂🤦🏻‍♂️ I appreciate the info and costs as I will never be able to home charge either due to house position. I’d be doing most of my charging on a nearby Tesla supercharger TBH, so costs would be more. Be interesting how battery longevity is just doing that as well. Anyway, it’s a bit of a dream. Thx 🙏🏻

Weird that a remote dwelling that already has electricity to it shouldn't get a BEV...why not just plug it into a regular three-pin socket? If the dwelling has electricity running to it, it would be worth investigating the cost of adding another dryer outlet. Doing the electrical upgrade may cost less than six months of fuel, nine months of fuel, 24 months of fuel (you get the idea), and then is there forever. A one-time cost of who knows how much might be preferable to the ongoing cost of fuel and maintenance of an ICEr.

Just to be clear. Your battery doesn’t like occasional charging, it needs to be plugged in at all times, even when not in use. It especially doesn’t like supercharging and that should only be done when absolutely necessary. Why are you not granny charging at home?

If you drive at least 20 mile / day with no home charger it will be easy ?

2:20 ...what on earth is a "free charger"?? There's no way you're charging your Tesla for free. Btw I'm from the US so I'm guessing it's different in Europe.

Hey yes in the UK up until recently most cities had 100% free chargers. So for my first year of ownership I barely paid anything to charge it. Unfortunately due to the cost of energy most of them do charge now.

Most people charge at home so it’s charging when they sleep and you wake up with a full tank. In terms of a road trip to the car does it for you, you don’t need to do any searching and by the time you’ve had a toilet stop and coffee the car is full
