Biden: this car will save you $80 per month. Never buy gas again!
Me: who pays for the electricity and the charging build out at my home?
Here's the skinny on Electric Vehicles (EVs):
Starting price is about $55 thousand. The range for a brand new fully charged battery is 300 miles. After the first charge the mileage will lessen with every charge. The frequency of charging the battery along with the amount of time to charge increases as time goes on.
An Electric Vehicle (EV) will lose about 50% of their power in freezing temperatures.
Fast charging an EV ( about 30 to 50 minutes) is BAD for the battery and will shorten its life.
Charging on 120 volt takes THREE DAYS!!!
Charging on 1220 Volt takes all night.
EV manufacturers say to not leave your EV in the sun all day as heat is bad for the battery( yes they are that fragile ).
Well informed people know that the rare earth metals necessary to build EVs come at 90% from China which means China holds the battery industry by the balls.
Lithium is a comparatively rare element, although it is found in many rocks and some brines, but always in very low concentrations. The lithium extraction process uses a lot of water—approximately 500,000 gallons per metric ton of lithium. It takes between 12 and 18 months of an evaporation process, the mixture is filtered sufficiently that lithium carbonate can be extracted. Lithium prices doubled between 2016 and 2018 due to exponentially increasing demand.
Most cobalt or lithium mines are in poor nations where workers are underpaid and mistreated PLUS mining for those uses billions of gallons of water that is then contaminated and rejected in the environment (so much for pollution!).
During the Obama-Biden administration, hydraulic fracturing was accused of causing a number of environmental problems—faucets on fire, contamination of drinking water, etc.—but the administration’s own Environmental Protection Agency could not validate those accusations. Mining and processing of lithium, however, turns out to be far more environmentally harmful than what turned out to be the unfounded issues with fracking.
Lithium-ion batteries can go into a “thermal runaway” due to a production error or damage. It is an irreversible process in which the battery will ignite, resulting in the release of toxic gases, flash flames and some explosions. Due to the increase in the number of incidents involving lithium-ion batteries, insurers are increasing premiums and asking companies to take adequate security measures. In EVs, think of the vehicle accidents and the danger. Know that Lithium battery fires and accidents are on the rise and present risks. Even disposal of Lithium batteries have caused a number of fires and explosions in consumer products and at recycling plants in the U.S.
It's a big con game to end private ownership of automobiles and to force the public to take mass transportation. This will be forced on us just like the face masks and 'COVID' vaxx. Most people will not be able to afford or depend on EVs.
