How do Tesla’s generate cabin heat for the winter? It must be electric, but that would use a lot of juice would it not?

I don't think I've ever lived anywhere that the electricity was included in the condo fees... aside from maybe a basement suite

Maybe I am wrong, but 1$ a day to charge your car seems pretty reasonable to me, I don't know why they are crying about it. It actually seems like the Condo board made an effort to meet them in the middle. If the condo board decided to charge them 150$ a month, then maybe they might have something to complain about.

I hope my condo charges people more than 33$ for plugging in their car at our condo

ya, thinking about it I don't think I've ever had electricity included in condo fees. These people should get over it.

If electricity is included in condo fees I don't see why this wouldn't be included. If electricity isn't in the fees and this common parking area is one of the few locations that the board pays for they should just make it so that the power is only on 25% of the time.

Usually with powered stalls in condos, the power is provided by the condo and not the owner, because that would be a cluster fuck to wire into the building of the condo.

I don't get it though, charging an electric car is the same as plugging in your cars block heater in the winter. A typical block heater uses anywhere from 900W to 1200W, basically very similar power usage to what electric cars charge at on 120Vac.

So I can see why they are irritated, they are getting charged for something that everyone else gets for free.

Now the argument could be made that most people don't plug in their block heater every night 365 days a year, but there is nothing stopping them from doing so.

Edit-
As for Phreak, as I've pointed out again and again, you assholes on Beyond will spend DAYS trying to figure out how to save $150/year on insurance and bitch about it here on Beyond

This is the same as someone running an extension cord from the block heater outlets, to power something in their condo. "Free" electricity right? What a couple of idiots.

[lasimmon]

I don't know it doesn't seem like the couple are mad. Just mad the power got turned off.. Didn't say they had any issue paying the $33.

Not really enough information to judge IMO.

My fees include electricity, water and some other things.

Yes, it moderates the cabin temperature when you're not there. My car has been sitting in my parking garage for 2 weeks and it hasn't used any power. I have it plugged in, but I would be notified if it started charging and when it stopped.

Mine does.

Sweet. Free charging then? I'm sure some units are mining bit coin lol.

Wait is that how you got the Tesla?

[suntan]

Yes some older building electricity is included. Lived in a apartment here like that too.

Good point. I'm going to argue that next, if electricity is included in the condo fee for in the unit, but not the garage, I'll load that bitch to the ceiling and move my stuff out.

Earnings call a week early, scheduled for tomorrow. Do or die time for Tesla. After this quarter of shifting deliveries, reducing capex spend, hoarding deposits, this is the best that they can do with the Model 3 in play. Tesla needs to show they can earn a profit, be cash positive, enough to cover the upcoming debt. Make your bets, it'll be a wild ride tomorrow!

My prediction, break even +/- $100m. Not enough to convince investors that they have a sound financial model. If it's on the negative side, the stock will get massacred. I'm completely out on Tesla for this quarter. Good luck anyone willing to gamble.

Clearly your kids go to a baller school haha.

In California, the school drop off scene is crazy. Lines of Model X gullwing doors open dropping kids off. Every mom has one down there.

In Alberta, the Moms only need to worry about running over a kid with the dually rear wheels when they pull away in their diesel Denalis.

It's funny how those cars completely disappear on my commute when the weather turns bad, sun comes out and they're back. Probably a lot of owners have a beater cayenne or something.
