  1. You're right, 18650 cells were already mass-produced in enormous quantities because so many notebook computers and other gadgets use them. But, as Tesla production increases, it's worthwhile for them to develop their own cells, and they will make them in cell sizes that allow lower cost and better performance.

  2. Any company that has its shit together will design their power electronics so that they NEVER fail. There are gasoline-powered cars over 30 years old that still have their original engine management systems (ECU) and they work just fine. No excuse for common electronics failures!

  3. I rarely read a post or watch a video where the reporter/narrator has the foggiest idea about energy vs. power, let alone knows jack about the units!

  4.  @Resist4  Apparently a lot of the northern-most States are like living in Canada, here we have long, awful winters and the humidity in the summer sucks. Summers can be nice, but are much too short to be worth the aggravation of waiting all winter for them.

  5. Distance per standard unit of energy makes sense, so don't expect it to become mainstream any time soon. :) Miles per gallon Kilometers per liter Miles or kilometers per kilowatt-hour All of these units are straightforward and usable. Marketing departments like to fuck things up to try and relate to dudebro consumers :)

  6.  @klisurski  It should still be possible to build power electronics that last practically forever. Large electric motors used in industry have electronic controllers that handle a lot more power than you'll ever find in a car, and regular failures in business are unacceptable. Just like they are in cars.
