We figured out that the one advantage of having an ICE car is having access to a window…

…washing squeegee at the service station, a feature that is not provided at EV chargers.

Problem solved: We bought a $10 squeegee at Mitre 10, and keep it in the car boot.

We set off this morning with a clean windscreen and a full “tank”.

Charging:

We plugged in yesterday afternoon at the motel, scheduled to not charge in peak dinner time. This morning we left with 98% battery charge in our @TeslaAUNZ Model 3, more than enough to get home without charging along the way.
