What electric car(s) are you interested in next and why?
Not really sure at present time, I’ll just keep up-to-date with the market.
Home charging unit – outline both positive & negative elements
Pod Point – makes life so much easier than having to find a charge point.
Electricity supplier & tariff – outline both positive & negative elements
Shell Energy standard rate tariff of 33p anytime. With current prices I’m happy with this.
What public charging networks would you recommend to others and why?
- GRIDSERVE – easy to use & I found them great on a trip to Cornwall earlier this year. Lots of new charging stations and all units are working & priced fairly.
- Pod Point – again, easy to use but cables can be heavy on older units
- bp pulse – I’ve found them to be one of the most expensive charging points and the app has lots of problems
- InstaVolt – easy to use.
We found the best way to down load as many apps as possible.
