Yeah, we're currently up to 4 different apps. Our experience of public chargers has been mixed. So far we've had 'free to charge', 'all taken', 'extortionately expensive' and 'broken'.

I think the world of the Musk Float is a million miles away from the experiences of your average Joe in their 150mile Nissan Leaf charging from the mains.

If you can afford a Tesla and have a home solar array thingy, then the Musk Float makes reasonable environmental sense. If I had a spare £100K lying around, I'd defintely consider it for the commute. However if I wanted to drive, I'd take the Mog.....

oh, and the Golf is broken. However, this may be due to the Mrs driving into a fence post at work, rather than a mechanical/elecktrickery problem. She's only had it 6 weeks. Still driveable, but needs a bit of bodywork.....
