Konke Qalisa Ngevumba Leoyile

Kwakwinyanga ka-Agasti 2017, ndandihleli kwiTesla endiqeshileyo kwindawo yeSupercharger eSedona, eArizona, xa ndavumba ioyile yegesi.

Kwakushushu kakhulu, kwakuyi-95 degrees ngaphandle, kwaye sasihleli apho ixesha elide. Andizange ndiqonde ukuba ukutshaja ibhetri ukusuka kwi-80% ukuya kwi-100% kungathatha ixesha elide kangaka, ngakumbi kumgangatho ophezulu wobushushu. I-Tesla yayizama ukugcina iibhetri zayo zipholile.

Ngelo xesha, ndandineKia Soul ka-2014, kwaye ndandifunda iingxelo ezoyikisayo malunga neKia ezitshisa kumazwe aseMelika. Kwisithuba esifutshane, olu ngxaki lwaziwayo lwabuya ngokukhawuleza engqondweni yam.

Emva koko ndakhumbula ukuba andikho kwiKia yam.

Ivumba lalivela kwindawo yegesi esecaleni, apho ilori yegesi yayizalisa iitanki ezingaphantsi komhlaba. Kwafuneka ndihleka kum. Nangona kunjalo, ngenxa yobushushu, ndandikhathazekile kancinci malunga neTesla ukuba ingatsha.

Akukho nanye etshileyo.

Nangona ndilinde ixesha elide, ndandithanda amava okutshaja iTesla. Uxhuma nje. Akukho zicelo, akukho makhadi etyala, akukho miyalelo. Imoto kunye nomshaja zazinakekela yonke into.

Ndandihlonipha le ndlela ilula.

Ngo-2019, ndatshintsha iKia Soul yam esebenzisa igesi ndaza ndathenga iSoul EV ka-2019. Ngelo xesha ndafumanisa ukuba ukutshaja ngaphandle kwenkqubo yeTesla kwakunjani.

Ndandifuna izicelo ezahlukeneyo kwiinethiwekhi ezahlukeneyo zokutshaja. Ezinye zafuna imali ekhokhelweyo ngaphambili. Ezinye zafuna unxibelelwano lwefowuni ukuze zinxibelelane neseva ngaphambi kokuba ziqale ukunika umbane. Ngamanye amaxesha lonke olu nkqubo lwaluhlulekile.

Kwakwumxholo ongahlekisi.

Into endandimangaliswe kakhulu yayingukuba inxenye enkulu yophuhliso loku tshaja yenzeke emva kokuba iTesla sele ibonise ukuba amava angaba lula kangakanani. Ithekhnoloji evela kamva kufuneka ibe ngcono, akunjalo?

UTesla wayesete umgangatho. Kodwa abavelisi bezithuthi abakhulu kunye neenkampani zokutshaja, kubandakanywa amashishini anezezimali kunye nezixhobo zobunjineli ezinkulu, ngandlela thile baphumelele ukunika amava anzima ngakumbi.

Endaweni yokudibanisa amava okutsha ngaphandle kokuphazamiseka, ishishini lishiyile abathengi bedlala ngee-app, iakhawunti, iinkqubo zokuhlawula, kunye neenethiwekhi ezingahambelaniyo.

Iinkampani ezifana neGM, Toyota, kunye neKia zinezimali ezinkulu kakhulu kuneTesla kwiminyaka yayo yokuqala. Ngokuqinisekileyo zange zisebenze kunye ukwenza ukutshaja kube lula njengokufaka intambo emotweni.

Kodwa ngokucacileyo, oko kwakungaphezulu kokucelwa.

Emva koko ndabona into enomdla kwigaraji yokupaka engaphantsi komhlaba yesakhiwo sam secondo. Kwakukho isokethi yombane eqhelekileyo ecaleni kwesithuba sam sokupaka.

Qala ukufaka intambo kuyo. Andizange ndicela imvume, kodwa kwakungekho mthetho okuchasene noko, kwaye isakhiwo sasisele sinikezela ngesikhululo sokutshaja seLevel 2 esabelwana ngaso njengenkonzo. Ngokutshaja kwisithuba sam sokupaka, ndandishiya esi sikhululo sikhululekile kwabanye abanini beEV.

Kwaye ngelo xesha ndafumana into etshintshileyo indlela endacinga ngayo ngezimoto zombane.

Ukutshaja kweLevel 1 kwakusebenzela ngokumangalisayo.

Iintsuku ezininzi, imoto yam yayimile iiyure ezininzi. Andizange ndifune ukutshaja ngokukhawuleza. Ndandifuna nje ukutshintsha umbane endiwusebenzisileyo ndihamba edolophini. Isokethi eqhelekileyo inokuphatha lula uninzi lokuhamba kwam kwemihla ngemihla. Ungafumanisa ukuba oku kuyinyani na kumgama wakho wokuhamba usebenzisa i-EV Home Charger Calculator.

Ngcono nangakumbi, amava ayefana kanye nento endandiyithanda ngoTesla.

Faka intambo. Hamba.

Akukho app. Akukho nethiwekhi. Akukho zixhobo ezinzima ezixoxisana neeseva kwenye indawo kwi-intanethi.

Qala ndacinga ukuba kutheni izakhiwo ze-condo nezamapartment zisebenzisa amawaka eemali kwizixhobo zokutshaja ezinzima xa iindawo zokutshaja eziqhelekileyo okanye izikhululo zeLevel 2 ezingabizi kakhulu zinokwenza inxenye enkulu yomsebenzi.

Umbane wawuselapha kakade. Ithekhnoloji yokutshaja yayisele ngaphakathi kwemoto.

Eyayingekho yayindlela elula yokulandela ukuba ngubani osebenzisa umbane ongakanani kwaye akufaneleka ukuba ahlawule malini.

Ewe, oko bekufuna ukuthembana. Abashayeli bekufuneka bangene kwaye baphume ngokunyanisekileyo. Kodwa kwindawo ye-condo okanye ye-apartment, apho abahlali sele benobudlelwane obusemthethweni kunye nesivumelwano nempahla, oko kwakubonakala kulungile ngokupheleleyo.

Kwaye ukuba bekungekho unxibelelwano lwe-intanethi kwigaraji? Ngubani onomdla? Nxibelelana, tshaja imoto yakho, kwaye ubhale okanye ulungise iseshoni kamva.

Andinakuyeka ukucinga ngako.

Ekugqibeleni, ndagqiba ukwakha isoftware ngokwam.

Ndayibiza ngokuba EVnSteven.

Indlela elula yabantu yokwabelana ngengqalasizinda yombane ekho, ukulandela ixesha lokutshaja, kunye nokuhlawula inxalenye yabo ngokufanelekileyo ngaphandle kwezixhobo ezibizayo okanye ubunzima obungafunekiyo.

Ndijonga emva, ndifumana kuyahlekisa ukuba lonke uhambo lwaqala ngevumba legesi kwindawo yase-Arizona eyomileyo.

Kodwa ukwaziswa okwenene kwafika kamva kakhulu, kwigaraji engaphantsi komhlaba, xa ndafumanisa ukuba itekhnoloji esingayidingiyo ingakanani.
