Hey,

Does anybody now where to find a good calculator for plug in hybrids?

 

where you can do the math to figure out stuff that applies to PHEV.

How much it cost to fill up the battery.(with my KWh rate.)

How much gas savings.

etc..

 

It would be fun to be able to compare since mpge does do it for me.

I don't get to see how much I'm paying in electricity.

 

Thanks

Are you using the supplied 120 volt charger or a 240 volt charger?

 

If the 120 volt charger, buy a Kill-A-Watt and you can measure the power supplied to the car.

If a 240 volt charger there is a hard wired kWh meter available for about $100.

You may also want to use the http://phev.myfordmobile.com site, where you can look at cool stuff like this;

In this case I selected my old Altima 2003 that used to get around 26-27 MPG.
