In this blog: To part a hybrid out and sell the parts for pennies can hardly be a car stripper's dream.

Yesterday I watched "Strippers: Cars for cash" episode on NatGeo TV. Both teams' cars caught my attention. Ben and Franky's one as it was like the one that Mr. Bean always helped turn over, and Sheldon and George's, because it was a hybrid. Which turned out being not one of Sheldon's favourite cars...

In this blog: Being stimulated to get yourself electric car is great as long as it does not stimulate traffic.

And there's such an issue already. Growing EV numbers in Norway, where EV driving in the bus lane is permitted, already causing traffic jams there. It is very likely that there's also lots of rumble. As, far not everyone is driving an electric car yet...

In this blog: Smartphone app turns 130 Munich taxi/LCV drivers into virtual EVs.

We've learned about this project at eCarTec Munich back in October 2013, and the news now is that it's ready to roll. Technical University of Munchen (TUM) team created a software app and installed in on 130 smartphones. The phone then were given to Munich taxi and truck drives.

In this blog: A story about how you get over the things you don't like about BMW i3.

Like seems to be all over the place in our days. Yeah, I like finding stories about EVs on the internet. Especialy of personal experience and reviews. And like (you see :) most of the people, I quickly want to find out why whould someone buy something they describe as UGLY? Usually ugly means "don't like", right? But let's get into a story...

In this blog: When you switch to LED bulbs at home, electricity savings comes handy for your EV charging!

Just bought my next portion of LED bulbs in my "campaign" to replace the "hot" ones at home. Surprisingly, the light is as warm as from the incandescent buls (@2700K). But LEDs need much less power. For instance, 3.5W LED bulb does the job a of GU10 25W halogen spot bulb. Or 6.3W LED (E27 400 lumens) matches 40W "wired". Nice, I'm now saving electrons for my EV :)...
