Breathe.

The option which I never thought I’d use… is saving my life and the lives of my passengers …. one breath at a time.

This time last year the sky was orange. We were living with the Lake Christine Fire.

Lake Christine Fire: July 3, 2019 to October 6, 2019

I just had the bio-weapon defense filter changed. Here’s a picture of the new filter.


Here’s a picture of the old filter… a picture of what I would have been breathing in every day of that wildfire if it hadn’t been for the bio-weapon defense mode on the Tesla Model S.


Thank you Tesla.

Bioweapon Defense Mode

I never thought I’d use the Hepa filter in the Tesla. It came bundled with the interior package on the Model S and I thought “Okay, that’s a bit ridiculous, but if I need that for the all black interior with the touchy feely black suede dash and ceiling and the comfier seats okay then…”

Then last summer this happened. The Lake Christine Fire.

Burning over 12,000 acres
Turning the sky orange as far away as Denver

The Lake Christine Fire started July 3, 2019 burned over 12,000 acres and continued through October. That’s roughly equivalent to a wildfire the size of Manhattan.

I was driving to Denver a lot because commercial flights are not allowed to fly over active wildfire operations and if you wanted to fly in or out of Aspen your closest airport was DIA 200 miles away. The helicopters and slurry planes were busy dumping 30,000 to 50,000 gallons of water a day on the fire.

We love our firefighters

I used the Bioweapon mode every day. Thank you Tesla.
