Charging electric cars on Club sites.

Likewise  ..... which is why mine is a diesel guzzling 4x4 😉

My towcar is also a diesel guzzling 4x4. However, I now only use it as a towcar because there is no longer a need to use it for work or daily use. That saves me money even with my present unleaded petrol Smart. With the Smart Electric the saving will be much greater.

The £84 a week CL site fee will come to an end on 16th March when I can take up my seasonal pitch. Then there will be the £45 a week saving in unleaded petrol. So total weekly saving will be £129 per week!

Is the seasonal pitch free then Malcom? They are making me pay for mine.☹️

Edit Sorry about being off topic, but this thread has been done to death.😂

It isn't free, SteveL but in my case, I have paid for the entire year up front both for Northbrook Farm in the summer and Gatwick for the winter. So for me, there is nothing more due!

You don't have to pay up front. You can choose to pay by instalments. Then you will have to make payments in the future.

As I get interest free credit plus points through my Tesco Club credit card, it is a very real incentive for me to pay the whole lot upfront and then use the £129 a week saving to reduce the balance on my credit card thereby raising funds for the following years seasonal pitch payment.

I have now accumulated enough points to get a £35 voucher in my next statement, as a result!

Personally Malcolm I would have waited before 'investing' in an EV until I could get one with sufficient range for my working day (winter and summer). 

How safe is it to charge the vehicle through the caravan? When you charge a mobile or IPad the plug gets quite hot, and that's for a short time, if you use a pressure washer with an ordinary extension lead, the lead gets hot, again for  short time.

After witnessing a caravan fire, I would like to know how safe it is, as it would be done overnight when we are all asleep. Has anyone actually done it.

Don't try to stop them ET, we need plenty of early uptakers for the manufactures to get the massive funds needed to really get the vehicles right for the rest of us, when there is no option

The more so where the last budget significantly chopped the funding stream coming from IC powered vehicle.

By the time that only EV is an option I doubt that I will be driving .... might not even be breathing

When I charge my phone or tablet the plug certainly does not get quite hot.
