This channel is mostly about electric vehicles and aims to help those who are considering an EV or to help owners with theirs, whether that is using it, fixing or servicing it, plus reviews of accessories. Also as I drive around the UK, I review the UK charging infrastructure and report on new EV charging installations.
I've been driving EVs for 9+ years and the channel has been best known for the content on some of my own personal cars - Renault Zoe, Hyundai Ioniq Electric, Tesla Model S and Tesla Model Y, plus others.
If you want to ask any questions, please ask in the comments below a video, rather than email or texting directly.

Tyre pressure monitoring system fault" on your Tesla? 🛞
It usually just means the battery in one TPMS sensor has died. Teslas from late 2020 use Bluetooth sensors, and those batteries typically last around 60-80,000 miles.
The good news is that an aftermarket sensor is identical to the original, any tyre garage can fit it, and you don't need Tesla to reprogram anything. Just drive, and the car learns the new sensor.
Full how-to: https://youtu.be/GFkw8oO2XF8
**Poll:** Have you had a TPMS fault on your EV?

In the UK, we now have 5 electric pickups on sale - The Isuzu D-Max, Toyota Hilux, Maxus T90EV (looks like this is being phased out though), Maxus eTerron 9 and now the KGM Musso EV.
But only two were purpose-built as EVs from the ground up - the KGM Musso EV and the Maxus eTerron 9. The rest started life as diesel pickups and were converted, so the battery has to squeeze into a chassis that wasn't designed for it.
The KGM Musso EV is considerably cheaper than the others, but still with decent specs - 2,300kg towing, 690kg payload, twin motor AWD, 240 mile range. It's nice inside too and inside it feels more like a luxury car than a workhorse, which I show in the latest video https://youtu.be/PeLpLF8c-og.
The Musso EV has an 83 kWh (80.6 kWh usable) LFP battery, but who makes the cells?

My nearest Superchargers just vanished from the car's charging list. 👀
In my new video https://youtu.be/LA7yXZbk3LI I show how your Tesla tells you which Superchargers are closed, which are busy (with the expected wait), and how it plans charging stops for a long trip, all on the screen in my Model Y.
This could be handy for new Tesla owners.

Did you catch the Tesla Roadster hanging UPSIDE DOWN? 🙃 Most clips only show the jump, but on its first run up the ramp Tesla's own gauges read about 4,700kg of downforce at 170 degrees, around 66ft up. Watch the first run here https://youtu.be/pcFkVqbD9WY

I know most watch this channel for EV content and now solar too. But as I'm starting to use AI now, I'm flabbergasted at what it can do and I will share some of it on this channel. The latest today is on AI image generation (see https://youtu.be/azI4mE2GPgo) and even if you don't have a need for that, it's still interesting on how the technology works and the results you can get from it.

I've done a thorough review of the new Tesla Halloween Mode (see https://youtu.be/5AKyjmKXOsM) but I missed out one other feature, which many will like if you have callers on Trick or Treat night. So part 2 will be coming in a day or two.

AC-coupled batteries confuse a lot of people — how does one charge from solar without any solar inputs? This video shows exactly how the EcoFlow Stream AC 5000 does it, plus how it charges overnight on cheap-rate electricity. It's an ideal battery that you drop in if you already have an existing solar setup, regardless of the make or size, or just to charge overnight and reduce peak rate usage.
