Nice #PV weather 13:00 done one 40⁰C wash another 60⁰ now in while 1st load tumble dries. Swimming pool pump & heater on, house 300 litre water boiler heated to 60⁰C, dishwasher on & charging the car. Have still sold 12kWh to the grid. Even mini 800W Balcony PV working overtime.

@swattsuer.bsky.social Did you know that 'Krümelix' is the largest YouTube electric truck influencer, and I suspect not just in Germany but worldwide. youtube.com/shorts/8djU4...

German BEV sales in April rose 53% over April 2024. Tesla lost 47% this April against 2024, only selling 885 cars & not even being in top 25 car makers. That despite Berlin Gigafactory & the new Model Y facelift having been available the whole month.

EVs have no place or future in construction machinery! #BAUMA #Munich youtu.be/pedjNXXBIuc?...

18 April 2024 installed 2x400W Plug & Play 'Balkonkraftwerk' mobile #PV set costing €300 (now €240). Plug straight into normal house wall socket. Produced/saved 750kWh or €225. Payback 1½ years. Come with 10-30 years warranty. 800W max allowed in Germany for such mini PV systems.

There are good people out there.

Compared to January 2024, Germany new car sales were down by ⬇️2.8% but #BEV sales were up ⬆️53.5%. Tesla sales were down⬇️59.5%. Source: KBA - Germany's vehicle registration authority.

Lovely day in Bavaria. #PV hammering out electricity despite it being early February. Even mobile 800W plug & play <€300 unit. It has produced over 600kWh in 295 days since installation, despite 2024 being terrible PV year. It will pay back within 18 months & can be set up anywhere with a house plug

Eigentlich reicht es doch, wenn es einmal pro Monat eine Zusammenfassung mit Trumps dümmsten Entscheiden gibt. Das müssen wir uns doch nicht täglich in den News antun, oder?

As China is finding out, it’s risky being our foe - as Canada and Mexico are finding out, it’s riskier being our friend.

If you are wondering why the country that helped America with its recent forest fires is being punished with more tariffs than China, which never helps America, Elon Musk owns an enormous car manufacturing plant in Shanghai. With Elon and Donald, it all comes down to their dollars, not your lives.

The brilliant Austrian electricity linesmen who packed their cars & took off to Ireland have now arrived in Cavan, taking up residence at Country Club my s-i-l works at. They are still without electricity at home.

#MuckingOut #3 AND #FavouriteGermanWord JESUSLATSCHEN 'Jesus Slouchers' God (excuse pun) knows why I ever bought these. Despite being a flower power kid, I never wore them. Still hoping to find my flairs, cheesecloth shirts & Greek, knitted, beach bag✌️🙏

The chairman of Israel's official Holocaust memorial has accused Elon Musk of insulting the victims of Nazism and endangering Germany’s democratic future after the billionaire addressed a rally for Germany’s far-right party.

Diese Sätze fielen kurz vor dem 27. Januar, dem Tag des Gedenkens an die Opfer des Nationalsozialismus. Rechtsextremisten diffamieren die Erinnerung an die Nazi-Verbrechen als Unterdrückung Deutschlands. https://buff.ly/3WxJdaC

#MuckingOut #2 1965 plastic #TrueBrit made by 🇺🇲Louis Marx & Co, famous for its toys & soldier figures. Given to me by my 🇩🇪Uncle Georg in Frankfurt in 60s, I guess he got it from 🇺🇲Army PX store there, as he had 🇺🇲friends/connections

Just doing some mucking out & came across this 1990 radio-controlled German clock. Given to me as a job leaving present by colleagues in December 1990. Battery lasts 2-3 years & only ever available in double pack, so 2nd one dead by the time it comes to be replaced. #GermanQuality

Daughter in Co. Cavan, Ireland, still without power after 34 hours, no water or Internet, but at least WhatsApp now & still some humour. Just sent me this..

@electricfelix.bsky.social ADAC interesting comparison of ICE vs #EV costs for cars internal electric usage. 100Wh=0.1 litre petrol over 100km. (500km = ½litre) Assumes €1.70/l & €0.44/kWh.

Swabia (Southern Germany) is doing well out of President Musk.
