Gulf fritillary caterpillars all over passion fruit vines

Gulf fritillary caterpillars all over passion fruit vines

I have well-established passion fruit growing on over an arch trellis. This is the first year I've see it covered by gulf fritillary caterpillars. About a third to a half of the leaves have one chomping away on the undersides, but surprisingly there's not a lot of visible damage to the passion fruit. I've read that gulf fritillaries are good to have around. Correct me if I'm wrong (or mis-identified them).

Battery model / name for the common M10 ebike

Many Chinese-made ebikes use the same or similar battery on the M10 bikes. The bikes are sold under various names including Zefiora, Isinwheel, Qnut...

https://www.isinwheel.com/products/isinwheel-10-ah-battery-for-m10-electric-bike

This listing mentions "XT60" connector, but there's more to compatibility than just the connector (mounting rails, lock, etc).

Are all of their batteries interchangeable? What is the model or style of those batteries? Their descriptions are merely 48v 10/15/17.5 Ah battery.

Rear wheel shifts despite tightening nut

The rear wheel slips under hard pedaling and rubs against the frame. I've tightened the nut which helps temporarily, but it eventually slips under hard pedaling. The wheel is true, no wobbling. Is there a good way to lock the position of the left rear nut? The right one has a more robust system that keeps it in place.

EvGo prices not competitive

Applied the Memorial Days promo codes and charged at EvGo. All in it was 68.5 cents/kWh. The Supercharger down the street is 37.5 c/kWh. I don't see how EvGo stays in business and why people pay so much for it when there are much cheaper options. For reference, residential rates here average 15 c/kWh.

Mods don't allow images in discussion posts. Here's the stats from my screenshot:

Energy Delivered: 27.844 kWh

Transaction Fee: $0.99

Energy Fee: $16.71 ($0.60/kWh)

Tax: $1.38

Total: $19.08

Grub: friend or foe

Grubs almost everywhere I dig in the garden and yard. Size varies, but lately they've been big honkers. This one is about 2" long stretched out. When curled up it's about the size of a quarter. I leave these on the sidewalk as a treat for the birds. but I read that there are some beneficial insects that start their lives as grubs. Should I eliminate these?
