Why I Got Rid Of My LEAF If you’ve been reading CleanTechnica for a few years or more, you might remember my first post here, where I talked about my experiences with my 2018 Nissan LEAF. There was some good to share, some bad to share, and some downright ugly to share. Since then, I’ve […]

It has happened, a class action lawsuit has been filed regarding Tesla Autopilot, Enhanced Autopilot, and Full Self-Driving Capability. The people suing argue that Tesla misled them with deceptive marketing that made the Tesla buyers think their cars would be better able to drive themselves. “The lawsuit was filed in the Northern District of California, […]

Reviews are reviews — meh, bleh, thank you man. But what are reviewers NOT telling you? Okay, I actually like EV reviews too, and we do our own EV reviews to try to help people out in their car shopping, but there’s also clearly something lacking in many car reviews. The reviewer presents their take […]

First of all, for background, note that FSD was one of my top 4 reasons for buying a Tesla Model 3, and I’d be more than thrilled if FSD got to robotaxi-level capability — and the sooner, the better. I’m also a longtime TSLA shareholder, so any claims that I’d write anything negative about Tesla […]

I was going to write an article about the 10 best electric cars, trucks, and SUVs on the market, but then decided I’d limit it to cars, trucks, and SUVs below $70,000 to make it a bit more useful. Then I realized there were barely more than 10 full electric cars on the US market […]

We’ve had our Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus (SR+) for a little more than 3 years. It’s sitting at 28,698 miles, or about 9,500 miles a year. (True, we’re not road warriors. Part of the low mileage compared to the US average is that the car hardly moved during the covid lockdowns. Part of […]

Most power stations and solar generators we review are pretty big. The largest ones are something you can’t really carry more than a few feet, but which give massive amounts of power. In one case, I was able to run a small electric toaster oven to bake potatoes for over an hour. At the smallest, […]

Most portable power stations can store power, have a handle to lug them around with, and have a variety of options for charging and discharging. We have seen them all around here and after reviewing dozens of different power stations, the Vanpowers Super Power Pro 2000 managed to raise the bar in just about every […]

Most of our small-scale lithium battery reviews at CleanTechnica involve power stations or solar generators. They come as complete assembled kits that include not only battery storage, but also have built-in inverters, plugs of various kinds, and a solar charge controller. Those are super handy for people who don’t know the ins and outs of […]
