My 2011 Volt is in the same situation as ClarksonCote's.
Received it in Jan 2011, it counted by ~4% per month of non usage (100% to 0% in 2 years is ~4% per month) but faster whenever I used the...

My 2011 Volt is in the same situation as ClarksonCote's.
Received it in Jan 2011, it counted by ~4% per month of non usage (100% to 0% in 2 years is ~4% per month) but faster whenever I used the...
Also, I have found that when an outlet I use is a little bit loose, it will cause problems; it will heat up excessively and sometimes will interrupt charging.
I simply replaced the carport outlet at...
For an extension cord, I agree that you don't want to go smaller than a 12 gauge.
My 100' extension cord is a 12 gauge and is rated for 15 amps, yet using the 120v Voltec charger did halfway melt...
I can guess what the electrician was thinking when he said that about the 120v Voltec using twice as much energy.
From my own measurements using a Kill-a-watt meter, my 120v Voltec charger usually...
Trust the green light in the center of the dash. If it is solid green, then it is charging.
If the car has finished charging and the light is blinking green, and then you turn on the car, it will...
Yeah, the night vision of this camera is better than what I've seen on all of my other video cameras.
Yes, I am always up at 3am. That is about the time I usually go home from work.
At 1920x1080, 15 fps, I have found the 16 GB memory to hold 8 hours of footage.
Also, a nice feature, is that if it detects any g-force over your set threshold, it marks the one-minute segment as an...
I have not yet found a good way to wire it to a constantly powered 12v source, but I thought I'd show y'all the quality of my BlackVue camera.
Video that I posted to Youtube.
I recorded it at the...
The one that I ordered from Amazon.com arrived almost a week ago. It was $249.99, no tax no shipping charge. (now it is $259.99) I have been experimenting with g-force trigger thresholds, camera...
I definitely want one. I assume the one sold at Amazon.com for $249.99 has the full warranty. I feel the need to find out if people are messing with my Volt when I am not around, plus it will...
The public charging station industry is still in its infancy. Once it matures a bit, providers will figure out the supply and demand and pick a price is low enough that it will be cheaper for Volt...
It was difficult to find, but I found the link buried deep in the onstar help system while signed into their web page.

See this article from today:

They will suspend production to bring supply into alignment with a lower than...
I got my Volt almost 1 year ago, so my 101 free minutes are about to expire.
What happens if I let them expire?
If I wait 5 years then renew again, will the car still have the same phone number? I...
I'm sorry for the loss of your beautiful Volt. Hopefully the check from the Corvette driver's insurance will allow you to get another Volt.
Must be a coincidence, right after I got my Volt, on a...
I'm sure there's a fuse that you can remove that cuts power to the Onstar. Check the Volt's manual in the section that describes which fuse does what.
Usually when it is humid or cold enough to fog on the inside, it is also humid enough that the outside of the windshield also fogs up so I have to run the heat or keep the wipers running. Running...
Unfortunately my permission to plug in at work has expired, so I will no longer occasionally plug in at work.
I got a call from the head of facilities who informed me of several complaints by...
This is the best explanation of the workings of the Volt's transmission I have ever seen.
Hey sorry to be bringing a old thread back from the dead, but it's relevant to my issue.
I got my Volt on Jan 28 2011, when the remaining oil life was at 99% and the odometer said 85 miles.
I...
