I was thinking about the push for electric cars, and the increasing stories of batteries, exploding and highway fires, that took thousands of gallons of water to put out.
I can’t imagine filling garages full of these electric cars and having inferior batteries explode. (Can you imagine the recall on these batteries when hundreds have exploded in family homes?)
Not only destroying the car and the family home, but the lives inside. And if they burn to such the high temperature, will it lead to neighbors fires as well?
I’ll stick with my gasoline!
Call them battery operated cars. Use battery when talking about them. Also point out that the battery looses 40 to 50 percent power in the cold. Last, their is not enough rare earth's to put cars in houses. This technology tree is a dead end. If they were forever batteries, maybe.but they aren't. It shit. And everyone is trying to switch over. Guess what. It's not working and will never work unless Teslas broadcast power system is used. Batteries are a dead end.
I don’t think so. I’ve been off grid on batteries for over 20 years. Cheaper than mains power. I have an electric bike and it’s great. Petrol is flammable but relatively safe. Car batteries don’t often explode and neither do petrol cars.
Their is not enough material for battery bikes, cars, and homes for millions and millions of people. I have seen and read results of battery power in the cars loosing almost half of the batteries power due to the cold. It's not going to work on a massive commercial level. It's just not. Flooding a battery car causes the battery to short out and burn down. Look it up. Respectfully, it won't work.
