  • Well this article just isn’t right at all

    I drive an entry level EV (Hyundai Kona) that advertises 4mi/kWh, which is roughly accurate (2-3 in the winter, 5-7 in the summer). That’s 25 kWh for 100 miles.

    Average cost of electricity in the US is, according to a quick Google, somewhere between $.15 and $.25 per kWh; where I live it’s a steeper $.33.

    Therefore, depending on where I charge, I’m paying anywhere between $3.75 and $8.25 to drive 100 miles–$1.50 short of the article’s published $9.78 even with my expensive power.

    In reality, though, I pay nothing–my office offers free charging. Show me an office with free gas.


  • Good news–we decided that “some support is better than none,” and quietly released the iPad app to the App Store as well. It’s not perfect–we’re pretty heavily leaning on SwiftUI’s automagic cross-platform–and while we finish filling out our core features it’s not going to get much dev time, but come 1.2 we’ll make it all nice and shiny
