Why does NMC fall off a cliff at high temperatures/high SOC compared to other battery technologies ?

I put Tesla in the vehicle selection and nothing came up...Tesla was also not on the list

The Pirellis don’t seem to be for Teslas

I empathize....because I have also experienced the endless wait by the side of the road for a tow .....but many many years before there were electric cars. And I also miss the days when there was a spare in the trunk along with a jack and tire iron instead of some cheap plastic pump and a...

Summer is coming....and now I am starting to worry...because time and heat are killing our batteries...as shown in AAKEE’s graph.. Especially as I have the NMC 😳😱......they are the most susceptible to heat. But this is my question.....the graph was made using battery cells kept at a...

Never refer to the Holocaust you anti-Semitic bastard

Everyone is making comments on how to conduct a war...but the experts on the local situation are the Israelis....they are not fighting a foreign expeditionary war with insurgents on distant shores...these are their neighbors...extremely close neighbors. Everyone forgets one important...

Ad hominems are acceptable when arguing with idiots and bigots

The definition of anti-Semitism is as follows....all those protesters on the streets caterwauling over every Israeli action...would they go out on the streets to protest against the actions of an Islamic country ?....of course not...but let’s pretend they did....would they then verbally assault...

I’d gladly give blood for a new Cybertruck

I have had my car for three years and it has never worked.....the button on the app does not light up

True...but it has never worked on my car

Since age and heat seem to be the enemy of battery longevity....this last three days my car has been parked outside...(M3LR, white inside and out and a shade for the glass roof)....the outside temperature was only 26c or 27....but inside the car was 60c !!! It only took two minutes of aircon...

When you said it was parked at the airport…was it under the flight path of KLM ?

The irony of deniers using a survivor to further their cause is tragic

If Starmer doesn’t get a clean sweep and has to do a deal with the Greens.....they don’t like electric cars anymore than diesels

The left seem particularly against all cars regardless of what it’s propelled by or who drives....the only positive thing they can say about cars is that they are a cash cow to fund all their other policies

Because of the sudden call for a General Election, Parliament is rushing through legislation.....anyone know if there is movement on the Self Driving legislation ?

And suddenly this most important of legislation becomes the least important

Perhaps he wrote it tongue in cheek 🤷‍♂️

Is there a way to find out if your individual car is affected ?

Sad.... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c88z0p33413o

A battery isn’t a single item...it has thousands of components (well, maybe hundreds)...so if only a few components fail it does seem strange to replace everything....especially from a company that is trying to save the environment

At the moment progress isn’t just limited in the RHD market.....it’s no different on the continent....except we can’t do FSD (supervised) in a Model S

I have FSD....but in the new update of the app...it’s supposed to mention that at the bottom of the opening page...and it doesn’t. I haven’t had a chance to try any improvements on the motorway yet

Guaranteed.....like remembering to take your umbrella

Now we are on 2024.14.6.....despite having the Intel Atom processor and everything saying we have to temper our expectations....I am quite impressed with how much more the car ‘sees’

It’s typical of lawyers who can’t differentiate between their own political beliefs, religious prejudices, ambition and the law.....I believe America is going through such a process as we speak

Is it the good sort of glass that you can go through head first in a collision ?

That’s the great thing about being best friends with China....they are always ready to step in and replace your entire industrial base

As far as I know the only mass failures of batteries were very early Model S….and their replacements have a good reputation. There are millions of EVs on the road ….are these manufacturers inundated with warranty replacements ? Third party companies specialising in battery replacement are but...

Originally I think most thought that technology would do away with the fighting man and robot vs robot future would emerge....and while that has been witnessed a few times...the reality appears that because machines are no longer safe or effective....it’s now returned to man against man....and...

Do you have that option where the brakes are applied to mimic regen ?

Here is a run of the mill analysis of the situation and it’s ramifications ... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-69013520 Nothing new....except....one throw away line from Putin’s speech....(my) ‘family is learning Mandarin’ Perhaps an exit strategy ?

Why don’t you admit the truth ?....your ski season never ends...it’s year round. Keeping your car parked permanently above the tree line is the only way to preserve the battery 🤔🤣😂

Here in France I am getting 2024.14.6 at this moment......but the release notes don’t contain much of interest

Keep us informed please

If UNECE has a unique way of indicating before changing lanes...it won’t be long before other drivers recognize when the system is employed (just like you always know if the car in front is using adaptive cruise control)...so other drivers will start ignoring the lane changing manœuvre knowing...

Russian military personnel serve in many regions.....and there is always a high accident rate with military equipment....add together disease and suicide (usually a high toll amongst young men)

I realize that and some are giving him the third degree....but there are 300 million Russians...so it’s possible to speak to a real one

I know I’m not going to be the first person to print this article... https://electrek.co/2024/05/10/elon-musk-tesla-spending-500-million-superchargers-after-firing-entire-team/ But if it gets another set of nervous eyeballs on it then that’s good

I am not sure why everyone is attacking AlekseiNovikov....he is offering you a unique view that isn’t from the mainstream media or YouTube....treat what he is saying as a resource....trying to convert him seems the wrong thing to do...he is already following this thread with interest

I have to agree about the overall benefits of sanctions...for example if China refused to send us anymore manufactured goods....would we be upset or grateful ?

I think the experience of citizens far the front leading reasonably normal lives probably holds true for many war in history

I would say the opposite....they would be extremely jealous of how easy he did it....compared to all the labor and union strife they get whenever they want to desize

I’m not so sure it’s that dramatic....all of these car companies have a long history of retrenchment, layoffs, shutdowns, closures, divisions sold cheaply, bailouts etc......laying off 500 people won’t phase them a bit

The bbc has made it world famous...and more important it has shone a light on the tiny minority of activists....just like the Eurovision, the media and those who dwell in it are creating a narrative that doesn’t match the real world....but it won’t stop them.

I knew why he left....just the direction of travel

Did you ask your Bosnian friend why he sought refuge west and not east ?

The story is one of their main headlines on their website…..there is starvation and ethnic cleansing around the world…
