thanks for sharing bro.

good info.

adui Why got ppl wondering if can drive whole day in kl without charging? On full charge the car can go 400km.

Do u even drive 400km a day in KL? Jus treat it like ur phone, reach home u charge la. Or else jus charge every 2 days

So total Installation is rm3.5k upgrade + rm1.2k wallbox = rm4.7k ?

actually i use CEE industrial plug with Portable Car Charger
RM2000- portable charger
installation
RM400 - my johor house
RM400 - my in law house

So i can move around and charge . from 6A,10A,16A,20A,24A to 32A

Nope, the charger is locked to the car when the car is locked

1. 40 amps definitely cannot because the charger already using 32amps, u only have 8 amps left to power your house, thats why need 63 amps

2. Dont have that data yet, there is a used 2019 nissan leaf for sale for rm90k, new car that time cost around 150-160k iinm? But the leaf is a very inferior EV that tends to overheat its batteries since theres a design flaw which it doesnt have enough cooling.

3. Chicken and egg situation, but for now more and more chargers is being installed as more ev's are on the road

4. Correct, fast charging in Malaysia is expensive, almost Singapore price. So its actually cheaper to fast charge in Singapore than in Malaysia. So no more funny humping action from Singaporeans when they charge in Malaysia

5. That is recommended for NCM battery EV, for BYD and other EV with LFP chemistry batteries, can charge to 100% everytime no problem.

6. The 3 pin can be turned off and unplugged, but the car is locked so the cable is also locked to the car so no chance of theft

7. Can refer to BYD website, main difference is battery size, fast charging speed, power boot, pm2.5 air purifier, wireless charging, RGB ambient lighting, rim size, number of speaker. The rest all the same

8. Free V2L cable and wallbox. No diskaun.

Dont know never tried proton one before. Its just ok2 lah, not very accurate like tesla autopilot or volvo one

Obviously the cost lol, the base/middle spec ioniq5 is not worth the price, the top spec is over budget at 300k++ already

Btw the korean use regular ncm battery which means cannot charge to 100% everytime like the BYD Blade LFP battery

Yes. I just checked its rm1.3k actually. But usually newer homes no need the 3.5k upgrade



I install it thru Sime Darby company installer. Mine they gave the 22kW 5 meter cable, but its rm1.3k because house is single phase, if 3 phaae house then its rm1.7k to install

lithium ion battery best kept at 40-60%,.. the least chemical pressure,..

After 6 years, any plans to change your Sorento?

Did you sell your Fiesta?

Nope, i still need the fiesta for my touge /genting runs. Also for my mum to drive to pasar.

Grab ?

For this ah, actually 400km city drive very hard to achieve. Maybe 300+ can lah, really have to drive like a granny to obtain 400km

From the BYD owners manual

Fully charging the vehicle is
recommended at a regular basis (at least
once a week), and fully charge it from a
low battery (<10% SOC) once every three
to six months.

so how long the battery warranty for ???

If you have to to long distance for example to Penang, will you drive EV or normal petrol car?

Maybe in future if you do to long distance trip with your EV, can update us on the experience here

8 years or 160k km

Maybe can try once la to experience. But i still prefer to take petrol car there because i have no patience to stick to the speed limit on highway. The BYD top speed is already less than what my usual petrol car average highway cruising speed is

Many stop to charge for convenience purpose like go makan or prayers. 10-15 mins top up for additional 150km or so

Anyways do join the myevoc fb group if you haven’t.

I am in myEVOC fb since 2019 and one of the top contributer there hehe

initially wanted to trade in Ativa for Atto 3

but wife heavily disagree with it because of interior not to her liking

then see Ora Cat..okay2 but boot space similar to Ativa so mcm not worth the change

so now need to wait n see Omoda EV end of this year, she fond the design ICE Omoda 5.

hopefully it pass wife expectation.

Good to know TS change to EV and lucky you stayed Landed hence can do the wallbox, i stay at low cost highrise so less chances to install any wallbox.

If buat Grab with Ev.. kena pakai logik sikit lo, pandai2 la cari tempat charge...

Not worth it to do grab unless u have a under rm50k EV with 400km range.

Hopefully the ministry that is currently drafting the guideline for installing charger at highrise make it done quicker, many condos management still waiting for the new guidelines

Just now lunch time at kopitiam, a byd ev car start it's car with very heavy electric burning smell .
I was sitting 30meter away also can smell

Yours also same?
