@feather1952 Here's a little-known fact:

The Australian Electric Vehicle Association was formed in 1973 after the (first) Oil Shock. It is in fact the longest running electric vehicle association in the world.

I hope everyone's now seriously considering switching to an EV. They're cheaper, they're cleaner, they're more fun, and they have no problems with distance.

Thanks to my mate Nathan from #TestEV who gave me an #EV battery health test Wednesday night at the #AEVA meeting

The test shows slightly below average results, but still within a good working range, and the overall health is high too (in comparison to other Nissan LEAFs)

This model sometimes suffers from individual cell issues, but if you look at the image, you can see that all cells have balanced votage

After four years, it's degraded by only 9%, or ~2% per year
