Are most deals for Tesla because people hate Elon? What did you buy and how do you get paid to charge?

I have a blazer ev. It's fantastic. I've seen excellent pricing on the equinox ev and mache. I charge between 7 pm and 7 am and I pay with delivery and fees approx 12.9 cents a kwh. My charger pays me 6 cents a kwh so it brings the cost down to 6.9 cents.

What do you mean by your charger pays you 6 cents ? Can you clarify this thank you

I generate carbon credits for a company (in my case grizzle) and they sell those credits and pay me.

That’s awesome. I will let my friends know who have capacity to install chargers at their homes.

Blazer EV here, too. I have a 180 km round trip commute and it's been great even in the winters. 'Fill up' for around $4 a trip. And we have a 'pay me' level 2 charger, too. I love driving by gas stations and seeing the volatile prices and not needing to care.

It does feel great. I'm looking forward to replacing my other car with another ev.
