    Fastest-accelerating EVs in South Africa

    I don't understand the idea to drain your EV's battery as quickly as possible. How can that be beneficial towards anything? With a broken electrical infrastructure, putting additional strain on the network by recharging again and again ain't helping. The whole idea with ICE vehicles and EV's is...

    Update: Stage 4 power cuts until further notice - 22 November

    Eskom expands plan to control electricity to your home

    Eskom claim the customers are happy. None of those "satisfied" claims ever appeared on social media. So people buying that bs must be close to being brain-dead! Way before this ls bs started, the Matjhabeng municipality installed 1000's of load limiting geyser devices. Suddenly neighborhoods sat...

    IEA rates South Africa's EV charging network among the best in the world

    I haven't seen one charger in Centurion as yet. A recent open road journey by a journalist revealed that when arriving at a charging station, there were no power due to loadshedding. They had to wait an hour before charging could begin. Prices are ridiculous. Also, in SA we pay > than R7 per...

    Cape Town residents are waiting up to five months for permission to install solar panels

    In Canada it takes less than 5 days to get final approval after the panels and auxiliary equipment was installed. Only in sh*thole SA people will be bullied who wants to be self sufficient Eksdom stove noses need to eat and the longer the process can be delayed the more money they pocket!

    Supreme Court hearing Vodacom Please Call Me case today

    I will never forget. When the Nokia 5110 came out, we as a test centre for data transmission already established this so-called "Please Call Me" method created by ourselves in Welkom. A tech calls in and drops the call to our in-house cellphone. This idea was the brainchild of Barend van Bosch...

    Electric vs petrol energy costs under Eskom's proposed tariff changes

    Recently an article pointed out that most South Africans cannot even afford a Suzuki Espresso which is the cheapest vehicle currently. The majority of places of living don't have electrical points in their parking lots. Although the charging costs might be lower for an EV, you must use a "lot"...

    Big increase in electric and hybrid sales in South Africa

    So I will need an unaffordable EV just to drive around in town and an ICE vehicle for long journeys Secondly, you must go to a public charger just to change an EV. With only +- 70 charges available in SA the government will have to go a lot further to lure people over to the EV brigade. Thank...

    MultiChoice is a good investment due to its strong South African operations and corporate involvement from Canal+

    I enjoy DStv. Having a Xplora Ultra provides me with flexible recording options. Yes, I make use of dedicated channels that caters for my personal interests. While following certain only sports it balance out nicely. I don't follow local content since it does not suite my personal persona and...

    How would you rate President Cyril Ramaphosa’s handling of the COVID-19 crisis so far?

    Check the voting statistics. It does NOT look good. How many people actually died from this virus? Read this and ask yourself, why are we still under arrest - https://www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2019-10-21-south-africa-63000-tb-deaths-in-2018/amp/?__twitter_impression=true
