  3. Am currently digging big hole you could throw it in.
  4. So what if we go off grid entirely? According to our power bill, we use 816 kWh in 95 days, or 8.6 kWh a day. This is actually crazily low, and AGL actually states that the average 1 person household uses 1216 kWh in 95 days or 12.8 kWh a day. Chalk that up to efficient LED lighting, off-peak hot water and no air-conditioning. At 8.6 kWh a day, we need at least two Powerwalls to cope with cloudy days. Even so, we would need to be extra frugal through long periods of cloudy weather. Fully installed, we are unlikely to end up with much change out of $30,000. On the plus side, we can now save our entire power bill, which includes the supply charge. In this case, $2.61 a day. Unfortunately, this actually means our payback time is around 31 years, even worse than being tied to the grid (at current electricity costs). http://www.businessinsider.com.au/this-is-what-teslas-home-battery-powerwall-will-cost-to-run-in-australia-2015-6
  5. Looking forward to see how many 'greenies' will spend $30,000 to install Tesla batteries come next year.
  6. yep - wont be powering your air-conditioned CBD skyrises with solar panels, batteries & rainbows any time soon. All mines have rehabilitation plans - so demob has been planned & approved long ago. Even if Australia jumps on alternative energy sources, developing countries will still rely on coal in which we will continue to supply to. http://littleblackrock.com.au/the-role-of-coal/
  7. The tesla batteries have a payback period of 25yrs & only a 10yr warranty. Wont be killing the coal industry any time soon. http://www.businessinsider.com.au/this-is-what-teslas-home-battery-powerwall-will-cost-to-run-in-australia-2015-6 Until the energy storage breakthrough happens on an industrial scale, which then unleashes potential of solar - there is no cost-effective solution at the moment.

  16. Ric roll'd
  17. yeah that's what they want you to do. Fight the system!
  18. I hired a car for 1 night - from airport to hotel to airport. Only drove it 20km if that. Didn't do the excess waiver. Dropped off car early next day when no hire-car person available to inspect. Two weeks later, received letter saying they've found damage on the car & will be starting claim. Googled the company, turns out they are known for pulling this trick, got out of the claim in the end. Make sure you take photos of the car before/after.
  19. get a payrise yet or what?

  22. I'd recommend traction tyres but they in south-east suburbs.
