    New Solid State Battery shown at CES - Game Changer??

    If they made a single cell that meets all their claimed specs it would be a game changer and every battery company in the world would be banging on their door. Production at scale will likely not be an issue if they've done what they claim. While we are all skeptical about this announcement...

    New Solid State Battery shown at CES - Game Changer??

    Electric Viking is guilty of spreading more battery hype than anyone. I guess he got enough push back on this one to make another video.

    Amprius. They've been there before and won the CES Innovation award this year. They've progressed to 520Wh/kg cells which are used in high end drones, and they have a range 300-450Wh/kg cells as well...

    Important to note that range is at city speeds, so basically irrelevant. The other figure they list is at 56mph, which is 196 miles of range.

    Are you sure? They have 3 stores in the US: https://www.vergemotorcycles.com/stores/ Anyone in CA can go test drive one I suppose.

    New Solid State Battery shown at CES - Game Changer??

    Except Donut says they don't use lithium. Donut is also partnered with a capacitor company so that seems a more likely technology considering claimed cycle life and charge rates. Would be a massive breakthrough in capacitor energy density though. Ziroth comes to that conclusion:

    Trump Tax Bill Passes in House: Major changes for EVs

    Things are escalating quickly, (sometimes I hate being so right). I wonder if any of those who were so happy about this "partnership" are able to see what a disaster this is, and it's just getting started.

    Trump Tax Bill Passes in House: Major changes for EVs

    Won't work if it is, he's just pissing off even more people, and those he's already pissed off aren't going to suddenly forgive him. This was always destined to fail as a "strategy".

    Trump Tax Bill Passes in House: Major changes for EVs

    Again. EV's that weigh the same as ICE counterparts factually cannot do more damage. Model 3 = BMW 3 Series, depending on the configuration the minor weight differences can go either way. Same with Model S and comparable BMW or Mercedes offerings. Carrying heavy passengers vs being solo can...

    Trump Tax Bill Passes in House: Major changes for EVs

    Non EV counterparts to Model 3 and Model S from BMW weigh the same. Your premise is flawed at best. Plus the fact that passenger vehicles do proportionally little damage, a few hundred pounds either way won't matter. Paying twice what an average ICE does is not "paying our way", it's...
