Dispatch to Tesla hybridisation

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Let me present you...

(it is what it is! fairly funcional 10.3" tablet display adoption Beta)

Alpha mounting in a vent broke and broke the vent (it's glued in place now).. power supply turns out need be specific [12V 3A USB-C] didn't work, hence 20Va (20 000 MVAH) power brick- battery "back up option", that's good for about 100hrs usage ... either way simple 16mm Velcro self adhesive buttons ~ x20 in total should keep me on a straight and narrow for a foreseeable future

Bi-Directional (obviously)

That Waze? I have been using iGO Primo in a tablet off and on for quite a while now. I have no need for live traffic to never bothered using Waze. They work better than the average sat nav in the fact that the processors tend to be faster and they have more RAM. Obvious other gains is holding music/films for when away and bluetooth to car stereo. If no Bluetooth you could use headphone socket into the AUX. Back to a 9" sat nav just now as i find the mounts to fit a tablet are quite weak. I keep meaning to make a fixed one but never get round to it. I got the idea a few years back heading through Holland as every 2nd car had a tablet/laptop on the dash. Im thinking nutters are checking emails or whatever. Passed one and no, it was a sat nav. Should have gone to Specsavers mate big_smile

This time it is Waze, down to experience of about 10 years testing every single one there was/is. Data?- it has become a tad more consuming, but in general with data monitor it's proven to be ~ 100mb an hour of traffic congested driving in SE, I can't be bothered with none other these days, although I got installed 3-5 others on the go.
If anything, I should've bought 15-16mm velcro strips for mouthing all contraption on-off ... but hey-learning curve
Bluetooth?- kinda not needed, as I use 2D maps, glance over (more like looking at it all the time), not the road, even locally... taught me to NEVER argue with "her", no human can possibly be that much aware of all that's happening traffic ways, regardless how knowledgeable you are in the area. Not sure if the "Slab-Tab" can transmit VHF in to radio, thinking along the lines to have it interconnected with nav apps??? dunno, but not necessarily needed after-all, might see what's what at some stage.
ANW, as I (and you) say- don't bother with mounting thingies, natural contours of dash make it all perfect to velcro-it, concur!
Particular Slab-Tab has a SIM slot, so not necessary to tether from the phone, I've set-it up so only new email (and number) accounts are trying to communicate, almost nobody knows the number to call me... so far no disruptions.

Once done driving/navigating, I use it for my in-bed sleep-aid, with all the TV streaming etc, as it was doing my head in, when "watching" telly, falling asleep, getting awaken by something or the other, whilst this one, once folded up in a duvet - can't hear it wink
