    Is it starting to not make sense with EV charging costs increasing?

    @fruwdjsb91 What Toyota hybrid do you have? I have one from 2012 and it's 60l and get about it 850 to a tank. Yours is insanely fuel efficient Many people charge from home or use a 50kwh charger which is much cheaper. Using the superfast chargers is mostly for long distance travel My EV has 64...

    Is it starting to not make sense with EV charging costs increasing?

    @spencer_3433 OP has en extremely efficient hybrid which is an outlier more than a common case. I also have a hybrid (older one) that works out to be about 11c km. Even with a superfast charger rate, my EV is around 9c km Still wins. Ideally you'd charge at home or use just regular chargers...

You'll just use solar power and if you charge more, the excess front eh grid I have a 7kwh charger at home, 13kwh batteries and 6.6kwh solar. At most I can generate just over 5kwh from solar and my inverter can...

    Is it starting to not make sense with EV charging costs increasing?

    @dewguru Similar story with me. I get 8c between 12am and 6am and also free power between 11am and 6am Our bills more than halved and we are using significantly more power Last quarter before this EV plan our bill was $280 for about 750kwh We used 550kwh for the last month and our bill was $65

    Better to pay off credit card or keep saving and maintain CC debt?

    @rchl3321 Why would you not pay it? What's better? $1000 debt at 15% (or more) interest a year or $1000 at 5.5% interest a year (and taxed on top of that) Unless you are in the interest free period, you're paying interest on your balance which is calculated daily If you have to think about...
