Comments by "Zrips" (@Zripas) on "Electric " channel.

  1.  @bigbadt  Just go and check battery prices over the years... Its going down. Then look at battery capacity and its performance, that one is going up. Aka there is steady progress with battery technology without any actual limitation in sight. We have multiple battery technologies even today which would be a huge deal if scaling of its production was solved. Electric is the future, its only question how long it will take to reach the point where even considering any other alternative looks foolish.

  2. Yes, you could, but maintaining it will cost you arm and leg, not even talking about you needing expensive compressor to actually push that hydrogen into your cars tanks
    2
  3.  @darkhorseman8263  Exactly, quite believable, but not possible. You can't just magically separate hydrogen from oxygen with some magical membranes... You have to put in crap tone of energy to get that result.
    2
  4. Market already spoken, BEV's is the clear winner here. Tho hydrogen never stood a chance here at the moment BEV's came into market.
    2
  5. Yea, there have been few scams about water powered cars floating around.
    2
  6. Put away your tin foil hat. Just because someone made a claim to have magical engine which breaks laws of physics will not mean that he had technology which breaks laws of physics... And that guy you are talking died 13 years after his claim, duno how its in your country, but our government isn't even that slow to off someone for their technology which breaks laws of physics. By the way, did I mentioned that it would break laws of physics?
    2
  7.  @amillio1612  If its patented then it should be publically available, right? As this is how patents work, so which patent involved magical engines or magical technology which was patented by government?
    2
  8.  @TyTy-gm8yb  You do know that those tanks are connected with fuel lines which can quite easily be broken and release highly pressurized hydrogen which in that state is highly flammable? And you have like 3 tanks in one car with 3 supply lines...
    2
  9. Its scam video, what did you expected?
    2
  10. Not safe
    2
  11. You mean some scammers claimed it and then died multiple years after it?
    1
  12. @dcampean Magical switch in electrical cars?... What the hell are you people even talking about? First of all, these hydrogen cars are electric ones. Second, no idea how is power source in the car relevant here... You can charge your BEV from your own solar panel if you wish... You can disconnect it from internet if you wish... So what the hell is this magical switch you are talking about and scared of?
    1
  13. Hydrogen engine was invented in 1806, you can get blueprints online after 10 second search... put away your tin foil hat
    1
  14. Its true because he said so? By the way, he died 8 years after his scam claims, I know that government is slow, but are they so slow to assassinate someone with magical technology after 8 years?
    1
  15. Maybe because government doesn't do it in general?...
    1
  16. @St.Miina. Cool story, can you provide name of that wizard who created a thing which breaks laws of physics so that we could fact check your claim?
    1
  17. If you want to pay 2x for fuel and like 10X for maintenance costs, then yea, go for it.
    1
  18.  @garry69696  10 times less? You can buy Tesla for 40k, are you saying that you could buy new car for 4k with same features Tesla offers?... And while BEV battery fires are dangerous, those are generally slow, so if we would talk about car crashes then you will have plenty of time to get out of your car, with hydrogen cars, well, if that tank raptures and you get a spark, well... It will vaporize you in few milliseconds, so i guess its a better way to die... And you will be paying crap ton more for everything, this is why currently some car companies selling hydrogen cars gives 15k on fuel as a bonus. Why do you think this is the case? Because it will cost you crap ton of money... Mirai, hydrogen car, has like 400 mile range, has 5kg tank, while one kg can be around 20-35 bucks, so you are looking at 100-160 bucks per 400 miles. Now check it with BEV's... That price will go down to like 30 bucks if you used superchargers, less if you charged at home. Do you see potential long term issue here?... Then add exponentially higher maintenance costs... And just FYI Toyota Mirai starts at 50k, so its initial price is higher than BEV's, its fuel more expensive, its maintenance is higher... So stop dreaming about something what isint real.
    1
  19. Its a scam.
    1
  20. How did you resolved hydrogen embrittlement?
    1
  21. Why not?
    1
  22.  @saswatsarangi6669  I guess his talking about solid hydrogen, my best guess here...
    1
  23. Or its one big scam because you can't bent basic laws of physics?...
    1
  24. Och no, hindenburg burned down, with hydrogen tanks pressured up to 10k psi it would simply result in vaporizing of entire car in instant
    1
  25.  @orlando9510  It doesn't take expert, but it does take basic google search to realize that what this video explains is bollony... You can't get hydrogen from water without putting in more energy than you will get back from water... If this was possible then we would have water/electrical power plants.
    1
  26. Then buy one.
    1
  27. Do they now? What would be actual benefits of that paste? What would be reasonable cost of it? What's the energy density? What's the by product of it?... List of questions is loooooooong and what you only have is "someone made a hydrogen paste"
    1
  28. Why not?
    1
  29.  @dee1089  Your own comment has that basic key word "currently". Batteries are improving every single year, especially now when more companies start investing more money into R&D. We have multiple promising battery technologies which have been shown to work, issue is just scalability of its production. Batteries are the future.
    1
  30.  @bigbadt  How the hell would hybrids be more environmentally friendly? Tiny battery which is basically the same thing as pure BEV and then you have ICE engine on top of that?... From which big oil web site did you got this silly idea? And battery technologies are getting improved every single year, check battery capacities per kg over the years, or its price. And we have multiple battery technologies in the works which could make HUGE difference, like carbon nanotube ones, its only question if that one can be used on scale, aka issue with scalability, aka needs more R&D, aka no real limit in sight yet. And batteries are not getting bigger, cars getting bigger ranges while having same/similar battery capacities.
    1
  31. That's fine and dandy, but there is limited amount of sun you could ever get from a footprint of a car, which amounts to not that much, I mean, you could maybe get 10-20km of range over entire day if your car was sitting during really sunny day, but its not really worth the effort to cover entire car with solar panels.
    1
  32.  @MrTiltmealot  Most efficient solar panels at the moment extracts around 25% of sun's energy, so at best you could go 4x that, but realistically it would be extremely hard to even double current efficiency, as even now major breakthroughs in solar panels are measured basically in fractions of single percentage. There are some new ones which tries to grab wider range of solar radiation, but its not that much more and cost of those panels is huge due to them being multi layered. We will get better batteries sooner than we will get solar panels worth placing on your car.
    1
  33. From where did you got that 90% number?
    1
  34. Paranoid much? How the hell does BEV's enslave you? Those are the most freeing type transportations... You can disconnect from the grid 100% and still use your car... People like you are so weird...
    1
  35. How is (assuming that its true) manufacturer having good quality parts would be relevant to anything here?
    1
  36. And Harry Potter books are history record...
    1
  37. "Environmentally ICE is the only way to go" Did you read this on big oil web page or something?... This is the most ridiculous statement you can ever say. "Electric is just too energy inefficient" In which reality?... "destructive to the environment to last" But its not. Most of electric cars can be recycled and reused, this is not the same story with ICE cars which spits out pollution as long as it runs "especially when people learn the truth rather than the current propaganda" Its ironic to head word "propaganda" from someone who thinks that ICE cars are the way to go... C'mon...
    1
  38. Little search will indicate that your dude died 8 years after his initial scam claim and he never actually proved his technology to actually work... It was a scam, because water isint fuel, it simply can't be due to basic laws of physics.
    1
  39. Because its just a scam?
    1
  40. How exactly will you make hydrogen to bind with CO2? It would be all sunshine and rainbows if you only looked at the fact that you are capturing CO2 and then releasing same one, but you are ignoring entire production process of making that fuel in general which will generate more CO2 than you will capture back, aka its not carbon-neutral
    1
  41. Or we could use BEV's
    1
  42. List of concept cars which never been realized is loooooooooooong, or you get a model which has like 10 cars built in total. They could come up with V12 hydrogen combustion engine, but if they build 5 of those and sell each for 5million, well, its a maybe cool toy for the rich, but nothing more than that.
    1
  43. Snake oil salesmen.
    1
  44. Funny enough hydrogen fuel cell engines are twice the efficiency than your sound making ones, so if you want to save the world you should go with the one which doesn't make a sound, right? RIGHT?!
    1
  45.  @DLP_Racing_505  If you cared you would have researched any of this and realized that hydrogen isn't better than BEV's, yes, they are not, even if you took fuel cell type, its still polluting slightly more than BEV's. Live and learn.
    1
  46. Or you could just plug your car into any wall socket and that's that... To produce hydrogen is really easy, to store it and to actually push it into car tanks, well, that's the challenge.
    1
  47.  @darkhorseman8263  Cool, tell me then, how much energy will you be inputting into system and how much you will get back? Because for this to be a thing you need to get more energy out than you put in. Is this possible with those magical membranes?
    1
  48. Your comment makes no sense.
    1
  49. Having engine which can run on hydrogen is really easy, we had one since 1806. Issue is with how corrosive hydrogen is, not in how you could use it in an engine.
    1
  50. Allow what? Engine which doesn't exist and can't exist?
    1
  51. It's not real engine...
    1
  52. Oil companies would love hydrogen cars as its yet another way to produce something people will have to buy from them. What oil companies doesn't want is BEV's
    1
  53. Because it doesn't solve anything?...
    1
  54.  @AlexNesh  Then why are you not using it?
    1
  55.  @AlexNesh  Doesn't answer my question tho...
    1
  56.  @AlexNesh  Well that explains it then.
    1
  57. Yea, in Narnia...
    1
  58. Hydrogen combustion engine was invented in 1806, you can download blueprints from internet... This is 218 year old technology... No one is going around and taking out people who claims to have magical technology... Some people simply lie about having magical technology...
    1
  59. Because hybrids are not practical, maintenance costs are quite high on those and you need extra space for all that extra stuff. You can't just combine multiple cars and expect it to be the same as pure ones.
    1
  60. And you think that hydrogen is ready?... C'mon...
    1
  61. Or... This might be a wild idea, but just listen... Or he lied?... Its physically impossible to use water as fuel... This is not how physics work. What you actually heard is someone using water, then performing electrolysis to extract hydrogen from water and then using that hydrogen as a fuel for a car. So it wasn't running on water, it was running on hydrogen... On top of this, you have to put in a lot more energy into all this process than you will get back from it, so you can't have electrolysis on board of your car. Its 2023, if something like that ever existed it would have been shared on internet straight away... Yet people like you think that there is some sort of lizard people government who tries to control something what was already published to be a thing?... Why the hell all these people with this magical technology never releases blueprints or even explains who all it works? Why its only a empty claim?
    1
  62. Water powered generators don't exist...
    1
  63. EV scam?... Well clearly someone never researched about BEV's or hydrogen cars.
    1
  64. People said same thing about smartphones without physical buttons, just look where we are now... Or same thing about cars replacing horses, and just look where we are now... You can't stop progress just because you like the old "feeling" of something.
    1
  65.  @Bengiatare4real  It's fine to have personal hobbies, you can keep those, just like people can still ride a horse or own old school blackberry phone with physical buttons, but those are exceptions and not the rule, same thing will happen with cars, i don't need to hear your car 10 blocks away, keep that to yourself, play a video game if you really want to hear that special sound of yours and be the rainbow man or something.
    1
  66. Just that you will be paying 10x for fuel and 50x for maintenance. Good luck doing that just to get that sound you want.
    1
  67. You do know that you can charge your car at home over night while you sleep?... And usually to charge BEV from 20 to 80% is like 20-30 minutes, not hours. Please do basic research next time.
    1
  68. And this technology you are talking about, what is it exactly? As you would need some sort of median to store that hydrogen, if it low pressure then you will need something lime metal lattice, which is heavy. Otherwise you would need to chill it down to -252C
    1
  69.  @o00scorpion00o  Isn't that easy as it looks... It's not like you will buy 20k worth equipment to refuel your car at home.
    1
  70. Because there is no pure hydrogen on earth... 100% of it needs to be produced, ironically most of it is being produced from natural gas currently.
    1
  71. Or maybe... Just hear me out here... Or maybe tech like this doesn't exist and people simply scamming others by claiming that it does?...
    1
  72. Congrats, you have been scammed! By the way, I have a bridge for sale!
    1
  73. I mean, cars replaced horses and we still have horses...
    1
  74. So many people in here actually believing this nonsense... Sad times to be alive.
    1
  75. I mean, you are not wrong, lithium is history as we had it for quite some time and it looks like new battery technologies are being created which lowers lithium usage or removes it entirely for better solutions.
    1
  76.  @philliplopez8745  At this point we have like a dozen really cool battery technologies, issues is that most of them ends up only being viable on tiny scales or have some huge drawback somewhere, like tiny amount of life cycles. And yea, I have seen that video from Munro you are talking about, if it does what they promise it to do, then it could be huge game changer for entire EV industry.
    1
  77. I have a bridge to sell here...
    1
  78. First of all, update your memo, at the moment BEV's can be recharged in like a half an hour, or like 15 minutes if you are doing that from 20 to 80% or like... You know.... Charged at your house over night while you sleep... There are even batteries in the works which should be able to recharge from 0% to 100% in like 15 minutes.
    1
  79.  @701983  Honestly, both of you are wrong. First of all, there is so much water on earth that it would require few million years if not more to have any noticeable impact. Secondly, it would actually "drain" earth from water. When you convert water into oxygen and hydrogen, well, you only need accident which releases that oxygen or simply realize that due to how small hydrogen molecule is it will tend to naturally leak from any form of container. So any hydrogen which escapes container will rise up and way into space which will be picked up and "blown" away by solar winds, so no hydrogen, no water going back into circulation. But that would take long long long time to do any serious damage, redirect few water asteroids and you basically replenished any lost hydrogen for next few thousands of years.
    1
  80.  @701983  I haven't even dived into actual numbers here, just stated random numbers, but I'm glad that i got it more or less correctly! Wait, does that mean that we could solve rising sea levels by producing hydrogen and releasing it into space?! {It's a joke} So to sum up, we will not drain earth or flood it, change will be more or less unnoticeable and irrelevant either way.
    1
  81.  @701983  That would only tiny bit slow down water "loss". Not much to consider here honestly. I think it's cheaper and more economically viable to just make hydrogen on the site than to try dig some from underground.
    1
  82. Have you asked if owner is actually happy with that car? Because I could bet that he isn't thrilled about it. Even better, ask if next car will be hydrogen.
    1
  83. Its weird to have video about most secret tech in the world without it being taken down... Which is more likely "One person creating scam video about magical technology" or "There is magical secret society of lizardmen who steals secret technology AFTER it gets mentioned on social media"? Isn't it weird that all those videos claiming to have world changing technology NEVER actually explains how it works for everyone to reproduce it?
    1
  84. Its a scam video...
    1
  85. Because you said so? Have you seen actual BEV's sale numbers?... Its at the beginning of S curve... Please just double check facts with reality before you speak.

  90. "need a baterie that is still made by children in africa and china and have to be changed every year or so" What do you smoke? Because it sounds good from all this fantasy you are writing here. "still doesnt have a good enought autonomy to replace conbustion in all field" Does it need to replace in all fields tho? "require to have a CLEAN source of power to be deemed zero Co2 emition" That's not how reality works... There is no such thing as zero CO2, everything creates it. But at the end of the day BEV's creates least of that, even with partial renewable sources. "OR just use a bike and walk when you have the option, just be reasonable with your travels will help" Or not? Car provides quite a bit more convenience than a bike, and this is not a solution to current problem, its just suggestion to use your car less.. Doesn't really impact that fact that car needs to be cleaner than it is now anyways.
    1
  91. They are more eco friendly than alternatives. There is no such thing as eco friendly, there are just less polluting
    1
  92. Why do you think there are zero mass produced hydrogen cars with combustion engines? Because those are half the efficiency in comparison to hydrogen fuel cells, which are already expensive to fill up.
    1
  93.  @piero17sb  Burning hydrogen will ALWAYS remain less efficient than hydrogen fuel cells, this is just how physics work, so there wont be a moment when going with combustion engine is a good deal for anyone who doesn't want to pay arm and leg for their fuel and for maintenance.
    1
  94.  @piero17sb  Much lower in infrastructure? Are you sure about that?... Because it's the most expensive infrastructure for any type of fuel out there... No cheapest, but most expensive one. Maintenance cost will be high too, as for example every single hydrogen tank has expiration dates printed on them, yes, not by mile driver, but by time. And due to how corrosive hydrogen can be in general you will be paying big bucks to keep that car running. Main waste from hydrogen cars is production of hydrogen and it needs crap ton of energy. This "real" car will be as popular as Blackberry was with its physical keyboard. Hardly anyone even remembers that company anymore... Times change, we don't need cars which can be heard from 10 blocks away just because YOU want to hear that sound. If you do want that sound, then buy a video game, put on headset, turn volume to 150% and enjoy it. Hydrogen cars will not be a thing, and I'm not even talking about combustion ones, I'm talking about the more practical fuel cell ones which are the only ones being produces, and for good reason. Hydrogen is already extra expensive and going with 2x (at minimum) the cost is just insanity even if you like the sound.

  95. Its auto generated bot content, what do you expect?

  96. Its not

  102.  @charleschristian7806  Because its random scam video generated by AI. here are hundreds of videos like that all over the place, none of them actually showing anything real besides random unrelated clips.
    1
  103. Your scammer Mayer's was a scammer... he died like 8 years after his initial scam. There is no such thing as water engine, it simply can't be due to basic laws of physics... Please verify basic reality before you spread lies around.

  104. But its not real.

  105. And pair with that fellow who says he can make perpetual motor... You will have trifecta of scams here!
    1
  106. @bearieroblox6451 making more money from cars which are one time pay and then owner spends little amount on electricity to charge it independently of big oil and basically never does any real maintenance on the car... While hydrogen combustion car is basically same as gasoline ones due to the fact that most hydrogen comes from natural gas and you will have to invest even more money into maintenance... So like... How the hell is your comment makes any sense here?
    1
  107. Then why there are zero hydrogen based energy storages out there?
    1
  108.  @chadpunte1731  I'm talking about actual energy storage plant, not a car with hydrogen tank in it... Hydrogen is quite bad when it comes to energy storage, this is why no one actually uses this method, anywhere... You have few hydrogen cars, but that's it.
    1
  109.  @chadpunte1731  I'm guessing you tried to make a joke here.
    1
  110.  @chadpunte1731  Producing your own hydrogen for your car is on same level as to producing your own gasoline from crude oil... While you could do it, that entire process will be expensive and tedious and impractical and so on.

  111. Why? And no idea what FSD has todo with anything in here.

  113. Bunch of cars which needs water to produce fuel in a place where water is extremely scarce so that by product of those engines could water land? Not a good plan.

  114. Yes yes yes and government is being ruled by lizard people...
    1
  115. Put away your tin foil hat and read basic physics book or something... Water isn't fuel, electrolysis requires shit ton of electricity, aka you will be wasting electricity to produce hydrogen which would be used to produce electricity to power motors... Aka most dumb idea ever. Will simplify things here, you need around 2kg of hydrogen to produce 1kg of hydrogen. Those numbers are not backwards. Do you see potential issue here?
    1
  116. More carbon than gas cars?... Tell me you parroting generic big oil propaganda without telling me you just parroting big oil talking points.

  117. Good luck to them, that's how you bankrupt entire company in just few years.
    1
  118. Or... He lied... Water isn't fuel, its basic fact. You would need to literally break laws of physics to make water a fuel...
    1
  119. Put away your tin foil hat... Water engine is a scam, unless someone figured out how to break first law of thermodynamics...
    1
  120.  @701983  But don't they carry balloons with them? In some cars you have like 3 of those, highly pressurized one, for extra umpfs during collision!
    1
  121.  @701983  I wasn't saying that your carbon tank is a balloon in literal sense, but both of those share quite few things. And it really doesn't matter how strong that tank is, after all you still have bunch of connections which can easily snap off. On danger scale I would oder things like BEV > ICE > Hydrogen going from safest to most dangerous ones. BEV's while being hard to extinguish takes quite some time to actually burst in flames, so you have quite a bit of time to get away. With ICE cars, will those can engulf entire car quite quickly, but still, its better than Hydrogen which would just explode and vaporize you on the spot.

  122. Con artist? What about him?

  123. Would suggest to actually double check about hydrogen cars in general before you waste your money on one.

  124. How do you know that it was done? Youtube video said so?

  125. 2 cars in one, can you see potential issue here? Mixing multiple engine types isn't really a good idea, maintenance increases, reliability goes down. Why not simply go with full electric?

  127.  @bijan426  How do you know that technology was lost?
    1
  128.  @amillio1612  Cool beans, so why exactly can't someone just accidentally leak that magical tech online? It seems that no one is stopping people who wants to claim that they have magical technology, so who stopping those with actual technology? And are you seriously saying that government prevents magical technology by having secret patents?... If i had cure from cancer and government said "You can publish it because we have secret patent on it", what do you think my next action would be?... I would have released all the schematics/blueprints on it accidentally/anonymously and that's that. What is more likely to be true: Government which is made of people who gets replaced every few years hiding magical technology or one single person lying about having magical technology?

  136. Combustion engines reached their peak few decades back. You might have got few tiny improvements here and there, but that's it, it wont go any higher than it is already. You might still squeeze out few extra miles by making cars more aerodynamic or making those lighter, but its not related to actual combustion engine anymore.

  142.  @packedandready5693  Now go and find statistics on how many % wise BEV's freeze and fail and burn in comparison to any other car. You will be surprised... But you never fact checked, didn't you?

  144. There isn't much of R&D to be done anymore, there are basic limitations of hydrogen which can't really be solved, like the fact that hydrogen is really bad when it comes to energy density per volume, or that thing where hydrogen will corrode metals. Hydrogen barely improved from the first car models, while BEV's keeps improving every single year with quite few battery technologies which could make any other transportation method obsolete.

  145. Yes yes yes, just like GM is leading BEV adoption, Biden said so, so it must be true...

  146. friendly advice, actually research how much pollution each technology creates from END TO END and realize that BEV's are the cleanest option. Old batteries can be recycled to lie 97%+ of its contents and then reused to make new ones. There is no issue currently with old BEV's in landfills, because there are non of those to talk about.

  147.  @Obelixlxxvi  You can just try googling it or simply ask ChatGPT, tho that one can be... Well... Bias... Point is that hydrogen isint that magical when you actually dive into it. For example, did you know that each hydrogen tank in hydrogen cars have expiration dates printed on them? And hydrogen has that thing called "hydrogen embrittlement" which will, well, embritel metals it gets in contact with. So hydrogen cars are by its nature high maintenance and you can't escape that. Another thing, there is ZERO pure hydrogen on earth, 100% of hydrogen needs to be produced and currently most of it is being sourced from natural gas. It simply doesn't work as much as you (and me) would like it to work.

  148. And yet every single time this magical technology being "invented" no one ever shares it while knowing that inventor will be killed? Why? Why are those lizard people allowing videos like this even exist if they are ready to kill inventors of magical technology? Could it be that this technology is just a scam?

  154. Not really, if it was low cost then most of currently produced hydrogen would not come from natural gas. Sea water is salty, duh, and for electrolysis you generally want as clean water as possible to avoid damaging your equipment with all that stuff which remains after it. Is it doable? Yea, kind of, but not really. Its like desalination could be a thing to provide fresh water, but by product of that is brine, which is, well, quite damaging to environment.

  155. Its because gasoline cars efficiency basically didn't change in last few decades, its at its peak.

  156. Really weird comment. Yes, you could produce hydrogen, but like, to produce hydrogen you need electricity and you need more of that than you would need to simply charge your car.

  157.  @Resomius  "But it´s more enteresting WHEN you produce it." But its not. It maybe could be more interesting as some middle school science experiment, but its not interesting for general use case. "If you want to charge an EV at night you need the energy at that moment." Usually there is plenty of that, this is why electricity prices are lowest at night. "With hydrogen you can produce it whenever you want and store it." Then why we have ZERO energy storage plants based on hydrogen? Because its not a good option for that. "But since at day the energy usage is less and also there is SO much renewable coverage in germany especially the wind turbines are often stopped and switched of to not overload the electric system." So like, more demand during day when you have solar panels to offset that? "But since at day the energy usage is less" But its not less... Peak hours are during the day... "Produce your fuel when energy is cheap and redily available and then store it when you actually need it." Or... Charge your car at off peak hours, like, during night, while you sleep...

  158.  @Resomius  I would be more than happy if hydrogen worked as viable option, sadly more you read about it less viable it becomes in your eyes. It's just surrounded by soooooo many issues that it's ridiculous. Like for example one of the biggest issues is hydrogen embrittlement, basically metals in contact with hydrogen will lose their structural integrity over time, this is why all hydrogen tanks in cars have expiration date printed on them, which is like 5-7 years. Powering your car with fuel produced from water sounds extremely good, this is why news papers usually put titles like "car powered by water" or something nonsensical like that. But it just doesn't work. Best case would be to use it for bigger equipments, like ships, planes, trains, semi, which would have their own dedicated refueling stations with production plants near them and have their own in house repair to lower costs of maintenance, but its non starter for regular passenger cars.

  159. Is it actually a claim from Toyota? Like, have you fact checked?
    1
  160. Because laws of physics... Will simplify it here, you need around 2kg of hydrogen to make 1kg of hydrogen, and no, these numbers are not backwards. You would literally need double the battery size to travel half the distance of what it actually could do if you simply used its power directly. EVERYONE who claims to have water powered car is lying.

  161. Why not?
    1
  162. BEV's start from like 35k, from which magical place you got that 100k number? By the way, from which magical place do you get hydrogen? Because there is 0% of hydrogen in its pure form on earth, so that means 100% of it is being produced and any production requires power and power requires power production plant of some sorts, so like, how?
    1
  163. Regular gas tank gets to like 3000psi, hydrogen one goes to 10000. Do you see tiny difference here? And hydrogen is extremely flammable and explosive in certain conditions, one of those is the pressure... So no, it is more dangerous... 10 is more than 3... By more than 3 times...
    1
  164. Toyota will go bankrupt in few years if they keep that "All into Hydrogen" nonsense... Hydrogen could be used in areas where energy density is more important, but that excludes regular cars, aka biggest market.

  165.  @Nisowyd  People forget that you need to produce 100% of hydrogen as there is 0% of it in pure form on earth. Actual smart people did the actual research and calculate pollution done from END TO END and BEV's still came first as the lowest polluting, not by much in comparison to hydrogen, but still a cleaner solution. What you people keep forgetting is that most of the battery you can recycle, so once you mined the materials you can reuse those over and over again.

  166.  @notsaying543  Now go and google actual pollution by BEV and Hydrogen car, END TO END. Avoid picking one single thing and scream "Look, its polluting!!!" but actually look at entire thing...
    1
  167.  @notsaying543  Once again, forget about your personal experience which is limited to your own personal views, actually google actual research which have been done to calculate ACTUAL pollution done by each car from END TO END Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs): Approximately 30-40 metric tons CO2e Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles: Approximately 120-150 metric tons CO2e Hydrogen Combustion Vehicles: Approximately 140-160 metric tons CO2e Diesel Vehicles: Approximately 200-250 metric tons CO2e Petroleum (Gasoline) Vehicles: Approximately 220-260 metric tons CO2e Asked ChatGPT for quick summary. Where do you get your idea what diesel is cleaner than BEV's?
    1
  168.  @notsaying543  Again, you just pointing out specific issues and not looking into entirety of it. So please, provide a citation from a research which indicated that diesel cars are less polluting from END TO END than BEV's, because every single one I can find indicates opposite of what you are claiming. Its like just parroting some weird facebook post you seen once and never fact checked... If diesel cars have been actually more cleaner than BEV's or hydrogen cars, hell, how the hell would any activist survive this blow? Why doesn't big oil companies spread this enormous news with rest of the world?... We were (apparently) doing it all wrong, we don't need alternative fuels, we have cleanest of them all: diesel!!!...
