I am looking forward to the warm weather, to see how well I can do.

A caveat with EV's is that most people cannot measure the actual charge, and I think that most of the other EV drivers are going by the dashboard readout of miles / kWh, which is roughly 15% higher than the actual charge, because of the wall-to-wheel losses. That and also the odometer on most is either slightly or quite optimistic.

Oddly, NONE of the EV specific forums have an energy log "garage", so I am glad the EM does.
