Solo travels coast to coast from Shanghai to western Norway in a long range Tesla Model Y, carrying a wealth of adapters and logs. He demonstrates how he charges in Kazakhstan, Russia, and across Europe, including dealing with GBT to CCS2 interoperability at different charger types. The duo explores the car’s features for camping, heating, and cooking, and they discuss the realities of winter charging, winter tires, and the importance of winter-ready setups. The conversation dives into software updates for adapters, logging processes, and collaboration with adapter manufacturers to improve compatibility. Throughout, Solo emphasizes careful planning, data logging, and learning from every charging session to optimize the journey and cost. He chats about the sleeping setup, food storage, and the practicalities of living in a car for two months, all while highlighting the evolving EV charging landscape across continents.
In this episode of Out Of Spec Roaming, Solo, a Tesla-loving traveler and charging nerd, documents an epic 17 000 km westward journey from Shanghai to Bergen, Norway, driving a Juniper colored Tesla Model Y. The host sits with Solo to unpack not just the scenery but the practicalities of long haul EV travel: from choosing a vehicle and the realities of charging across multiple countries to keeping logs, data, and logs for adapter developers. Solo walks us through his route, including Kazakhstan’s charging deserts, Russia’s difficult networks, and the European leg up to Finland, Sweden, and Norway. He details the gear he carries for charging interoperability, including GBT adapters, multiple AC DC cables, and a suite of back up adapters. The conversation reveals how he camps behind the car in winter, stores food with a compact fridge, and uses an EcoFlow power bank for heating and cooking. Importantly, Solo emphasizes the value of logging every charging session, sharing his data-driven,
