  1. You are correct, serviceability is now a lower priority. One reason is the disposable, planned obsolesence nature of consumer goods. (Why vehicles that used to be capital goods became disposable consumer goods is another conversation.) The second reason is that the reliability of the motor/regulator has improved so much that it outlasts the rest of the car. But everything breaks down eventually, so some serviceability should still be considered.

  3. Here is an idea: A range limited, geofenced EV as first car for teenagers, or senior citizens.

  4. If this checks out, they will meet the FAR reserve range requirements for small aircraft. It will be huge

  5. It happens in many industries. There was a time when Motorola ruled the cellphones, then Nokia...both gone! There was IBM, and then it was no more. Once there was Sony, once there was Kodak, once there was Xerox.

  6. Recycling is not high on the design goals of this battery pack. Maybe it will improve later?

  7. Ā @oof_DadĀ  yes I did. And the key line is "as found in a mine". Why would you spend the extra energy to freeze and process this "ore" to then have to spend the same energy as with new materials?

  8. Ā @oof_DadĀ  Sandy's comment makes me say it. It takes energy to process the battery with liqN2 And then it is "the same" as "found on the ground" I care not for your report

  9. Ā @ericrichards7884Ā  please take it up with Sandy, not me. He is the one that said it.

  10. Ā @ericrichards7884Ā  did you come to talk about ME or about the batteries? YOur attempt to personalize the discussion failed. Please do not talk about me, or what you believe are my motivations. I care not for your delusions and mind reading. And if you ALSO pretend to know what Sandy said... there is no hope for you.

  11. That casting on the underside looks like the string model Gaudi did for the "Sagrada Familia" cathedral. (guugle "maqueta funicular gaudi" ...... most results will be in spanish)

  12. After this teardown can we drop the pretense that these packs are "recyclable"? Much less "easy" to recycle.

  13. 1:10 Ford knows how to make pickups. What is notable is how much knowledge they ported over to the LIghting Sandy is comparing this to the CyberTruck. Yes the cybertruck has a high "cool factor", but it is not (yet) a work truck The EV trucks is where the race is ON.

  15. 9:10 is this fluid shaping of the shock towers the output of AI generative design? https://youtu.be/aR5N2Jl8k14?t=183
