Your system will have a watts and watt-hour limit. Planned mileage is quite low, and Tesla's battery will hold multiple weeks usage.
10 kWh/day would be 70 kWh/week, about twice what you need?
Slowest 120V charger, enabled as a dump load based on system SoC or timer during the day. I suppose car can be programmed to not top off, so it doesn't spend its life at 100%.
Lot of money tied up in a battery on wheels sitting around; if that mileage is spread over all the days and not just a Sunday drive, the car's battery is 10x what you'll be making use of. Neighborhood electric vehicle?
Well , thanks …that make sence in many ways…As far as not driving a lot, the closest town to me is about a mile wide… the next biggest is about 2 miles wide…there only so much to see and do without going to the big city’s 40 to 60 miles away.… BUT, I don’t wish to get stabbed or beat up and robbed while walking into a pizza joint , NOR do I wish to go to jail for defending my self either.. it’s a paradoxical existence we have allowed the country to degenerate into,
in the rural area I live there’s only so many cow pastures you can go look at with Amazment…
the electric car tied into with the solar generation for the RV and tool shed allows me the freedom to not depend on others “as much” while times are good and not at all if times are bad…
I still have a Newish Ram 2500 4x4 and a small Hyundai AWD if I need an ICE vehicle to drive for some reason…offroad and around the mountain land …but with out petrol they become pretty chicken coops.
It is my plan to have more capability than I need for powering things,,ya never know when it will come in handy..
You make perfect sence about the wasted excess of power I would have with the tesla, but at a certain age , money sorta becomes usless once your basic needs are met, unless you spend it on somthing that brings someone/ somthing happiness.
Ya can’t eat money, or screw it …it makes a poor spice for cooking and drinks and no one takes a single cent with them in the end… may as well spend it…!!!
Imagining , developing and putting into action ANY project is a wonderful thing..
it doesn’t have to make economic sence, it just needs to be fun, possible and hopefully serve someone a good purpose…
one day I won’t be here to imagine and implement anything … so while I am here , it’s what I do.
PS….. im probably Gona go with the Y , not the truck…
truck may draw to much attention anymore… the Y just sorta blends in ….
