What streaming device are you using? A fire stick won’t get the job done if you’re trying to quad / octobox

You need something more powerful like an Nvidia Shield Pro. And your internet will play a big factor


Yep, my Fire Stick 4K Max struggles with multi view with more than 3 games going at once. On my Nvidia Shield, 8 games no problem if I want. Lol

Maybe I'm dumb, can someone explain why I care about ESPN Unlimited with YouTubeTV?

Isn't the point of Unlimited to get the main streams you wouldn't get without a provider?


I think one of the advantages is if you watch a lot of sports and you want to jump between a game on a linear channel like ESPN, SEC Network, ESPN U, Fox Sports 1, etc and a streaming channel like something on ESPN+ or SECN+, you can now do that all within the youtube tv app vs. having to jump between the youtube tv app and the standalone ESPN app.
Half of the drivers on the interstate in BR, their sole mission is to follow as closely as possible to the driver in front of them. One small hiccup in traffic flow and the chain reaction of additional backups is perpetuated. Allow some space, sheesh.

I pulled a report of all of my supercharging sessions over the past few years. Should give a good indication of charging costs. Sorry for the small text size.

Thank you. I assume you did these things yourself, other than the tires. Is having a mobile tech come out pretty much the only way you're getting any service done on it, if needed?
Do you just go to a normal tire shop to get new tires?


Yes, I did those things myself. For tires, I get my rotations and I purchased my new tires at Discount Tire.

For service, you make a service request in the app. Tesla will determine if it's something that a mobile tech can do, which is my preference. If it's a larger service that requires a Tesla service center, that would have to be brought to New Orleans. I live in BR. I've heard rumors that they may be bringing a service center to BR, which would be nice.

I'd like to hear more about the issues with maintenance, specifically in LA where it seems to be a bit more of an issue.


For mine, 4.5 years old, 62k miles.

- Put new tires on at 33k miles. I think I could have gone another rotation, but decided to get a fresh set. So almost 30k miles on this set, but I went with a good set of Michelins and there is plenty of tread left on them.

- 2 cabin air filter changes

- Windshield wiper fluid topped off

- New set of windshield wipers

- I had an issue with the button not working to close the trunk. Mobile tech came to the house and replaced it under warranty.

Pretty basic stuff

Interesting. Yea I know you would need a home charging port and many of my neighbors have them and I see those charging stations in their garage. But I was thinking of being at a VRBO or something and not being home. If I plug it up at night and let it charge, how much would it give it in a day.

I have not driven one but honestly, it would be a great vehicle for my wife. She only uses her car to drive around town and go back and forth to work which is 10 miles away. Other than that, we use my truck as our family vehicle. Electric would be fine for her.

The only issue with a Tesla for her is she is a princess and needs all the bells and whistles. Lots of buttons and lux. It is what it is. The tesla looks plain jane inside and I just dont think she would be happy with that. LOL


120v is very slow (3, maybe 4 miles of range per hour). I have used it, however at airbnb's in Gatlinburg, beach condos, and other places I've traveled if there weren't other charging options available and it was fine.

I've owned my Model 3 for 4.5 years and taken a lot of road trips. The Tesla navigation pretty much does everything for you with regards to superchargers, but I still like to pre-plan before I go anywhere.

While a stop at a supercharger is certainly longer than filling up with gas, you have to factor in the time you're saving in a typical week or month by having the convenience of charging at home. For someone that lives in an apartment complex or other area where level 2 charging isn't available, I would not recommend one.

There are definitely pros and cons, but I've enjoyed mine as it's a fun car to drive, and I'd get another one.

The pron can easily get added if y'all want those categories. Lol

I also started messing with dispatcharr today. Very neat and powerful software.

Right. Is the OP just posting this to brag? In my limited research on IPTV, it's saturated with scammers and people that won't share their honey pot. Not very much in between


I sent you an email asking if you'd want to do a trial of the one I use.

Nah, thanks for IPT I stay tuned, just the backup TV though. There is better TV floating around. Unless u gotta have that porno then IPT TV prob where it’s at.

To be fair there is like 100k tv channels and 20x of each one you need so maybe just I didn’t select right ones.

Current plan has just one of each channel and it’s perfect unless you venture to Pluto/xumo/247 groups.


The one you use that I offer does have the pron channels available. I usually just don't add them unless someone requests them. LOL

I am also curious what happened with your channel lineup where you had to redo everything. Nothing changed on mine as far as I know. I need to look into this dispatcharr that you use. I've seen it mentioned other places as well.

re: Second Tier Cell phone carriers

Look at US Mobile. They offer all 3 coverage options. You can choose to run on ATT, Verizon, or T mobile. If your phone has duel sim, you can run on 2 at a time.

Pros and cons - cost. I went with their cheaper $25/month plan and have had zero change from my previous ATT plan. Only con I can thing of is they bill each line separately. So I get charged $25 for mine, and $25 for my wife's, rather than just $50. I can still manage both lines under 1 account so its not really a big deal.

Coverage and reliability - excellent

Customer service experience - I haven't really had to use these. But I guess this could be a con as well. I do not believe they have a number to call and everything is handled via chat or email.

Any hidden fees or limitations - nope. $25 a month is exactly what I'm charged.


They also let you teleport (basically switch from ATT-Verizon-TMO) if one carrier has better coverage in an area you are in. Pretty neat feature for people who travel a lot.

My brother uses UHF on his iphone, and seems to be happy with it. Tivimate is definitely my favorite IPTV app out there.
