Yes, it turns yellow. I honestly have never seen my climate controls disabled. If acceleration gets reduced, it's not noticeable. You made it seem like in your earlier post that the vehicle was screaming at you to get to a charger AS SOON AS POSSIBLE or the vehicle will just die on you.

I'm sorry, but that has not been my experience.
Yeah, let me ask AI vs my real world usage. That makes sense.

Also, you should never be charging to 100% at a supercharger, or even 80%. That makes no sense as you are just wasting time and money. I only charge enough to get to my destination or to another supercharger along the way due to the charging curve.



I've had a model 3 for 3.5 years.

- phantom 'fuel costs' as batteries lose their charge over time if not constantly plugged in and charging


Yes, there is some battery degredation.

quote:

- 80/20 rule on range; just because it says 300 mile range you aint getting anywhere close to that unless you are charged to 100% and drive it down to 5%....which nobody does, unlike gas vehicles where there's always a station a mile up the road so everyone runs it down to E and the light comes on.


I charge to 100% for long road trips and frequently pull into a supercharger below 5%.

quote:

on the road' charging during road trips is going to run you $20-$30 or more..how much are you actually saving over gas again?


My most expensive supercharging stop has been $18. A lot of them are between $8 and $12.

quote:

- range anxiety is real exacerbated by the fact once your car gets under 20% battery life, it starts chirping at you to find a charging station and starts disabling features making you feel like the world is going to end if you drive it down to 15 or 10%


This is some extreme exaggeration here. Again, I frequently pull into superchargers below 5% battery.

quote:

- installation of a decent charger at your house (assuming you own your house and dont rent) will be $1k or more; $500 for the charger and $500 for install..assuming you have an open 40 or 50 in your breaker box. if you have to replace the panel; your cost just went up to $3-$5k.


Did mine myself. Cost of materials was less than $100.


Overall, my experience has been much different than yours.

I have been using it since around March and it's been very solid for me. I have been doing 5 streams all day today with multiview and it's been great. Also, you don't have to do a year at a time. You can do 1, 3, 6 month or 1 year. I'll send you the pricing.

Unfortunately, no Fox games will be in 4K on Sundays on any IPTV service or anything period as they are not produced in 4K. You should be able to find the Fox 4K college games, as well as ESPN and NBC.

You got it right. One-way address though.. 48 is plenty if there isn’t some reasonable single stream intro thing.


Trial only allows 2 connections fyi

Yeah, I am very happy with it. Post your email, and I will get you setup.

I don't need 4 lines, I'll never use 3 of them. Most services are 2 lines and you pay extra for additional. My current service has a backup as well and a big VOD with a backup VOD all for $10/mo. If paid yearly. I've been using IPTV for many years now and have never paid more then about $10/mo. So sure, while $25 is cheap compared to paying for YouTube, Hulu etc., it's expensive in the Iptv world. Is my service right now perfect? No but it's pretty damn good. I did get buffering during the world series which is why I've been looking for another service as a backup. But like I said before, if CW is as good as yall say I will probably stick with it.


You're welcome to try the one I use. It's $100/yr for 1 connection. It has a 48 hour trial that I can get you.

I just like to see what else is out there. I've been using this particular one for about 6 months. I used to use the public ones that are like $30 for the year, but the EPG on those are usually terrible, and sometimes they work well, but other times they buffer like crazy. Just not worth it.

I also care about picture quality (higher bitrates, etc..), so I wanted to see how this compared is all.

I will say, the CW dude interrogated me and really doesn't want you subscribing. He told me maybe his service isn't for me. And it's way more expensive than most services.....$25 initiation fee and $25 / mo


Same thing happened with me. I was wanting to just try it out for a day, but he said they don't offer a trial.

The server I use has been incredible, and I get 5 connections for $140/yr.

My advice, just ask them. They are pretty straight forward. Some on here are already using them, so ask their experience.

They aren’t the cheapest, but I’ve had them for years and their shite just works. If it doesn’t, they fix it or refund you.


I am interested in trying it out if you could send an invite.

Having issues as well. Noticed it this morning when getting around the downtown area.

Look into IPTV Boss. It can be a little bit of a learning curve.

Does your provider provide an EPG? Do any channels show guide info or they are all blank?

Selling 4 in section 305, Row 17 all together. Tickets are printed tickets, so if interested, I can meet up on campus. I will be heading out there in the next hour

OP is right. This shite has pissed me off for 10+ years. BRSC needs some changes or people, including myself, need to stop giving them money.
Heading to Chicago later this month with my gf. Going back through this thread as it's excellent! Staying at the Langham and can't wait.

For a day game at Wrigley, what would the best area to sit be if I wanted a little shade?
Water heater from when the house was built in 1982
Issues are still persistent in the downtown area, and this morning has been especially bad. Anybody else?

I will try calling and opening a network ticket.
