Dual LEAF Households

[mxp]

Having 2 Leafs is like having double the range.

In our use case, we shuttle back and forth back to homebase all the time for errands, kids, commuting etc.

I recall a couple of times, I had arrived home from a 70 mile round trip and "switched" over to the other Leaf parked at home(wife's) and did another 30 mile round trip errand in peak hour.

The ICE is really just for long trips these days. I use Stabil in the gas tank.

We also have a 2nd meter in a dual turret electrical distr frame and enjoying E9B rates @ 6cents/kWh for as long as it lasts.... (keeping fingers crossed)

For PG&E users, if you have 2 Leafs, you easily move into higher $ tiers assuming you use the cars a lot.

I adopted two orphans in jan and feb of this year. Both 2011 SL red and silver. I work from home so only charge every 3 days. The other is retired and gets charged about 2x a week. The EVSE upgrade has been awesome with minimal increase in electricity usage. Electric bill about the same for same months as last year.

Love watching them both grow to be great examples to our community. Lol

Two Leafs, now for two weeks. Will see how it goes. So far we love it.
