    Original Article

    As one of the EV Club of Connecticut Leaders, I've been helping out with the arrangements for this event. I'm very much looking forward to having a chance to speak this year again too.

    All the details are in this EV Club of Connecticut article by leader Barry Kresch, with the registration form right here for folks wishing to attend either or both days, and/or test drive one of the many EVs we'll have on-hand.

    I'll be doing some informal "Sage on a Sage" presentations on Sunday:

    Differences in the ownership experience between Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) and EV. Presenter – Paul Braren, EV Club CT

    and on Monday, and I have the honor of introducing Matt Ferrell to the audience for the panel discussion:

    Matt Ferrell of YouTube channel Undecided and discussants talking about their experiences in installing chargers and/or solar or batteries and wrangling incentives and utilities.

    Looking forward to meeting so many EV enthusiasts, EV-curious, and EV policy makers at this bigger-than-ever event. I also hear Connecticut local Out of Spec Dave will be joining us too, a Connecticut/Florida snowbird widely known for his wealth of experience road tripping in impressively wide variety of EVs he and his wife have owned.
