16 hour daytime layover - any suggestions?

I will be travelling to Incheon with a layover starting 4.30am and my next flight at 8pm the same day. Any advice on what I must do during this time? I would like to do some shopping at the very least and would also like to squeeze in something else with that.

Got a new Level 2 charger with adjustable Amps upto max of 40V. Wall outlet is 50A-240V. What should I set my charger Amps to for a balance of longevity and fast chargong?

I own a 2025 PP XSE. A new level 2 charger has options from 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36 and 40A. What should I set the amperage to while charging to preserve longevity of my car battery + charge in 4ish hours?

Looking for a level 2 EV charger that comes with a 6-50 plug, no-wifi access needed.

As mentioned in the title - my power outlet is rated at 240V, 50A and has a NEMA 6-50 plug. I don't have access to wifi as my parking is 3 levels underground and there is no signal. Any recommendations for Canada?

Looking for a no-nonsense "dumb" Level 2 J1772 charger

Hi all, i recently purchased a Grizzl-E mini charger through their club membership program and learnt after it's arrival that the charger requires continuous wifi connection which my underground parking has no access to and cannot fit a wifi router as I am renting the unit in my condo.

I am now looking for anything that needs none of those extra BS to get through charging - just want a plain old level 2 charger. My wall outlet is a NEMA 6-50 R with a 50A-250V output. Would love some recommendations.

I am even good with 2nd hand options at this point as long as they are reliable.

Grizzle Mini - first time setup without wifi?

Hello, i recently got a Grizzle E Mini after doing some research on what best suited my needs for charging my car. However, my parking lot is in the underground parking and there is no access to wifi in the area, making it impossible to set it up for the first time. My condo unit also does not come with any of the high voltage plug points to connect my charger and set it up.

Is there anyone who has had a similar experience? When I plugged in my charger, it flashes yellow (which on the user manual says that it means "Charging is restricted by smart features").

Looking for players - Japan, Tokyo

Hello,

My partner and I are beginner/intermediate badminton players playing for about 1.5 years. We are visiting Japan in October for about 2 weeks. We have heard so much about how Badminton as a sport is very different because of cultural influences in Japan. We would love to meet up and play with folks in Tokyo if anyone is of the same level. We would be happy to pay for the court rental during our visit :).

Please DM me if interested.

How do I fix my drops?

Hi, I'm an amateur badminton player. I did a drill for drops recently and I was disappointed to see how my drops dont look deceptive at all - both the back swing and my slicing makes it really obvious a drop is coming. How do I fix this?

Not sure what charger to get - looking for a portable one as I can't modify the socket (I am renting in a Condo)

Looks like my current charger wont fit into this NEMA 6-50 socket and also the voltage rating of the socket seems higher than my charger's - i'm afraid it might fry the charger.

I can't really get a permanent charger like a FLO charger installed because I am renting in a condo. Is there a good charger out there (level 1 or 2) that I can get? My car uses a J1772 port (Prius Plug in 2025).

Anyone tried programming homelink to their condo garage gate?

Hello,

I'm having trouble setting up HomeLink for my building condo's garage gate. We use an ICT fob and I live in Canada. I've tried following the instructions on the rear view mirror screen and when I get to the part where it says "Hold press the button on the fob while keeping it 2 inches away from the mirror", nothing happens even though ive held the gate opening button on my fob. I wonder if homelink is incompatible with my fob.

Anyone have experience using a similar fob from ICT and try to program HomeLink?

Joined the club this weekend. Used '25 XSE Premium in Canada, 16k km, 41k all in.

Anyone got tips on things I should know on my PP?

Also a few questions:

  1. I am unable to remove the previous owners from the Toyota profile of my car and make myself the primary driver even after linking via the Toyota app.

Edit: I found another reddit thread suggestion which worked for me. You just have to email backoffice@toyotaconnected.com with the VIN no. of the car in the subject line. In the email, also add that you would like to reset the profile along with 1. Driver's full name, 2. Address, 3. Phone number 4. Attached copy of Ownership or Purchase agreement, 5. Attached copy of driving license of the primary driver. I got a response in under an hour with an email stating that the profile was refreshed and I could register again.

  1. Toyota homelink does not seem to be getting setup using my apartment building's key fob.

Anyone got tips for how to get this fixed + anything related to the "must know" things as a PP owner is appreciated!

Looking for advice on how to best maximize efficiency while driving?

Hello,

I've a 2025 Prius Plugin XSE Premium getting delivered tomorrow. I've test driven the vehicle a lot but id still love some inputs from experienced drivers of the new XSE premium on how to maximize my efficiency. Here's what my week looks like normally:

  1. Drive to work 27km one way (mix of highway + city) and return for a total of 54km --- 3 days a week

  2. Drive to my sports club about 20km one way and return for a total of 40km (mostly highway driving) --- 2 days a week

From the above I am anticipating an average of under 250km per week.

What mode should I drive in ? Should I just leave it on Auto and let the car do it's thing? Need advice as I've never owned a Plug in hybrid before.

First car purchase - car dealer says 9.99% car loan APR via RBC?

Hi, i recently purchased a used Toyota from a Volkswagon dealership. They normally go via RBC and I got approved with a 820+ credit score but the interest rate is quite high (9.99%).

Is this because this is my first car purchase ?

Are there alternative ways for me to borrow money at a lower interest rate? I would love some advice. Thanks

Edit: Called the dealer and "threatened" to buy the car off with Cash and they replied saying "We can make you a special offer and work out if we can come down to 6%. Let's talk in person".

Freaking car dealers are crooks these days.
