    Florida deploys mobile chargers along evacuation routes

    This is a drop in the bucket, admittedly, but an interesting idea to deploy temporary EV chargers along evacuation routes. ...with so many evacuating at the same time, it can put extra stress on charging infrastructure. To help relieve that pressure, the Florida Department of Emergency...

    Charging information in the App

    Ok, color me confused. I know the Taycan actually controls AC charging and the EVSE simply supplies the juice to the car. Given this truth, why can I only see my AC charging history if I use the Porsche EVSE and not a third party EVSE? If the car controls charging speed, time, and percentage...

    Chargers at Florida Buc-ees

    During a drive today, I saw the bank of Mercedes branded 400kW chargers at the St Augustine Buc-ees. For anyone interested, they are apparently open to everyone using the Chargepoint app, but the price is mighty steep at $44.89 per 15 minutes when I checked at 8 pm EST. I should have taken a...

    Custom drive mode selector switch

    The urge to customize strikes again. I saw an ad for drive mode selector switches in custom colors on another forum and decided to grab one up for my Taycan. The original dial is plastic and pops off easily by pushing from the back with plastic trim tools. Line up the new aluminum dial and...

    Access to Tesla Superchargers and simple charging sessions

    On my drive into work this morning, I found myself thinking about charging and access to all the different companies that provide public chargers. I don't know whether I would actively seek out a Tesla Supercharger rather than EA once that network opens, but I want the option. My thought this...

    Using ChargePoint Home Flex with Taycan profile(s) and timer(s)

    All, I'm considering a new EVSE now that Porsche is offering to pay for it. One of the cons I continually see about the ChargePoint Home Flex in comparison reviews is that it "requires" WIFI to charge. If preferred, can this EVSE just be set to dumb and charge off my existing Taycan profile...

    Dash camera install with lots of detail

    Hey all. I had a Thinkware U1000 4K dash camera installed in my Audi and recently moved it over to the Taycan. My install hardwires to the fuses rather than doing a mirror tap. I was surprised by how the A pillar trim safety features changed in just a few years and, even though the existing...

    About the 718 EV

    Ok, I can't be the only one wondering this. When the EV version comes out, will it be pronounced "Kie-Mahn"?

    EA charging network rant

    Happy 2024. I just feel the need to rant a bit after a recent charging experience, to a possibly sympathetic crowd. Since I still have a few months of free Electrify America DC charging, I figured I'd do a test run before trying to road trip for real. I went on the Porsche app over the weekend...

    PSM and launch control

    A question about launch control after searching here and reading the manual. I know that I don't need to shut off PSM to use launch control. My question for those who've done it is, does completely disabling PSM have any actual effect on the launch itself or the max HP, or does engaging LC in...

    Changed out my wheel caps

    Pretty mild, as far as a mod or customization but I figured I'd post this all the same. Santa read my letter and decided I was pretty good this year, so he brought me some new wheel caps with the full color Porsche crest. I put them on tonight with minimal effort (gotta love assorted plastic...
