Thread: Tesla’s traction control is next level.
Not talking ESP / yaw control, although they do some interesting things I haven’t seen before, strictly talking wheel speed control
Here’s why Tesla is different (btw BMW claims to now be doing this with their new platform EVs 👌)

Rotated and color corrected, I like this perspective more. Check out the shock wave from the SRB ignition!

To add: a friend of mine is borrowing my Rivian for a road trip right now. They work for a charging company and have pretty good EV knowledge but it’s their first big road trip. Every single EA site has caused a problem for their trip and SLC was completely offline

My prediction: 20% chance we’ll see this story change over the next year. I’m having plenty of issues with the new hardware too
After going to the @ElectrifyAm station in East Brunswick to find the entire 10-station site down, I headed to Bridgewater to find this. #WeGottaDoBetter

Tesla North American Charging Standard supports up to 1 MW of power… and Bi-Directional Charging! 🎉🎉🎉🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🚗🚗🚗
Huzzah!
In pursuit of our mission, today we are opening up our EV connector design →

Eager for a future of reliable non-Tesla charging solutions for others. This couple is traveling down from Vancouver, BC and said the trip had been “horrible” due to broken or slow chargers. This @ChargePointnet station in Redding wasn’t working for them either. @ElectrifyAm #EV
Video of the new Level Lock+ with Apple HomeKey in action with an iPhone and Apple Watch. Operates just like Apple Pay, but with express mode turned on, you don’t need to unlock the phone.

Just got the new Level Lock+, one of the 1st smart locks with Apple Home Key support allowing you to unlock the door with a tap of your phone (instead of using BT or Wifi). Available ONLY at physical Apple Stores Today! @MacRumors @Apple #smarthome #smarttech #homekit #levellock
Also, given the flipped orientation of the box’s back graphics, I’m wondering if these early units are misprints but were sent out out to meet the launch deadline? 🤷🏽♂️
It does appear that to use HomeKey, you must manually add the lock to HomeKit after setting up in the Level app, rather than auto-adding to HomeKit as part of the level app setup. I had to remove from HomeKit and re-add. @MacRumors @9to5mac @levelhomeinc #smarthome
