A $10 squeegee solves an EV-charger gap

We figured out that the one advantage of having an ICE car is having access to a window washing squeegee at the service station, a feature that is not provided at EV chargers.

Problem solved: We bought a $10 squeegee at Mitre 10, and keep it in the car boot.

We set off this morning with a clean windscreen and a full “tank”.

Charging

We plugged in yesterday afternoon at the motel, scheduled to not charge in peak dinner time. This morning we left with 98% battery charge in our @TeslaAUNZ Model 3, more than enough to get home without charging along the way.

Fair point the previous owners washed windows, our fear is post COVID don’t touch it, shame really as I also love a clean windscreen

I got one of those too. The kettle is a multi purpose vessel too. I need to buy a better squeegee than my 2$ shop one i have.
