Specifically thinking of stuff that make your life better in the long run but all kinds of answers are welcome!

I’ve recently learnt about lifetraps and it’s made a huge positive impact on how I view myself and my relationships

    To be clear, a car that uses either gasoline or diesel will have a lead acid battery and not a lithium battery. Electric cars have lithium. Just to clear up any confusion.

      Quite a lot of electric cars will still have a lead acid battery for the low charge things like wipers, electric windows and electric mirrors. It’s simpler to do that than to have a complicated system to step down the voltage to something they can accept from a lithium ion battery.

      So essentially electric cars have two independent electrical systems that have nothing to do with each other. Interestingly this means that you can use an electric car to jump start an ICE car, even though a lot of people claim you cannot.

      That said some electric cars do go the route of a step down transformer so check your car.

      Yes, correct! I will update my post to reflect this. Working with EVs can give me EV blinders.
