Hi. I thought you might be interested in the fact that I have just imported my meevster into my new place of residence, Malawi in central Africa. It is the first electric car in this, the poorest country in the world. I am tweeting its progress @KieronSmith6. So far so good!

That is a good idea. I am sure they will have used a standard sized screen. Paying a small electrical repairer will be a fraction of the 900 dollars surely?

This is a REALLY cool way of sharing results. Well done Kieron

I suspect you're right about range being much higher at 20mph but I don't have the patience to check this out! I've cautiously put 130 miles. I'm trying to model the curve with a fairly simple equation based upon my experience of driving my i-miev in temperate conditions. I too thought that...

Does this feel a little more realistic? I can adjust my spreadsheet to get a best fit assuming no heater, tailgating etc

Can anyone help me with this? I need a step by step guide! What do I need to buy? Once the box is installed and the app is installed, what next? It seems like a cool extra feature to buy. I have been to the ovms site and zero carbon world, but cannot see the i-miev mentioned. Any help gratefully...

What a great story! It just shows what we are willing to put up with at the moment as early adopters. We need rapid chargers every 20 miles to change most people's likelihood of buying an EV.

Hey I also have an i-miev and vw camper! Very cool

I finally tried the cable at Forest Green Rovers football club and it worked! I only used it for 15 minutes whilst waiting for the rapid charger. One of the football players was charging up his Nissan leaf! Boy is rapid charging rapid. I only plugged it in for 20 minutes before I had enough...

That's great news! I was in Bulgaria a few weeks back and saw a real push from renault for the twizy and kangoo ev's. There was a display of them in a mall. It's really encouraging to see EV's spreading their presence.

I'm starting to feel sorry for you guys. My UK model has a toggle switch to turn off the noise! You're right about it being noisier on the inside...

Yes, I bought one of these cables on eBay. Watch out that you get one that's long enough and has a high enough current rating. I decided to pay a bit more and get a top quality one. However, I too have only ever charged at home other than one time when a hotel in Worcester let me use an outside...

Here is mine in cloudy UK. I am 5000 miles into my electric odyssey.

Yes the twizy owner really enjoys it. I had a go in one once with my 4 year old son in the back. He still talks about it!

The highest RR I have had is 96. Most common figure is about 76. Miles not km.
