  1. 5:1 Tesla stock split

    That depends on how you define "being in". If you want to experience seeing your account showing 1 share of Tesla stock tomorrow morning and 5 shares of stock on Monday morning then you will have to buy 1 share tomorrow for $2001 - no, that is not a typo. OTOH you can wait until Monday and buy 5...
  2. Nikola is going to crush Tesla with its new technology!

    I am just so intrigued by this process that I am going to bore you all again with what is actually happening here. Oxygen loves electrons. In photosynthesis the energy from a photon tears electrons away from the oxygen atoms is water and CO2 and transfers them to the hydrogen and carbon atoms of...
  3. Nikola is going to crush Tesla with its new technology!

    The bottom line here is that an H2 FUDster has implied that we ought not consider hydrogen as a fuel because a hydrogen plant blew up. Following that line of reasoning we ought not to fertilize our fields with ammonium nitrate because fertilizer plants/storage facilities have blown up nor heat...
  4. 5:1 Tesla stock split

    The problem is that any ignoramus (and I am sure you are not one) can open an eTrade account and buy as much of it as he wants to throw money at without anyone warning him that it's a bubble, that it's over priced at $375 for one or $1835 for 5 ($1890 at the moment) or reminding him of what...
  5. Nikola is going to crush Tesla with its new technology!

    Good old ammonium nitrate. Grows crops in the desert and clears the rocks out of the way so I can build my garage but also did a pretty good job flattening Corpus Christie and, more recently, Beirut. And I think perhaps the biggest non nuclear explosion to date, if not Beirut, was when the...
  6. 5:1 Tesla stock split

    There must be something fundamental I don't understand here. If you offer to sell me eggs at $60 a dozen I will tell you that's way over priced. If you then offer to sell them to me for $5 each that doesn't change my perception of the situation one bit.
  7. Lucid Air EV Has a Projected 517 Miles of Range, and We Saw 458 Miles on a Real-World Ride-Along

    Why do we think Tesla is less efficient than Lucid? They are both subject to the same laws of physics.
  8. Nikola is going to crush Tesla with its new technology!

    And I surely wish I had done so just before the warrants hit! Now I'm wondering if I shouldn't buy some (long). You wouldn't but most people take their cars on a trip at least occasionally. But I suspect that perhaps you may be missing the point that you don't have to take the Badger elsewhere...
  9. FreeWire Deploys Next Generation Ultrafast Electric Vehicle Charging at Convenience Stores

    That doesn't answer my question. What happens when a vehicle arrives wanting more charge than remains in the battery? Does it fall back to Level 2? Throughout rural Quebec mnay villages have an information center with at most a 50 kW DC charger. This scheme could work very well at such...
  10. FreeWire Deploys Next Generation Ultrafast Electric Vehicle Charging at Convenience Stores

    While it isn't at all clear what this thing does the implication is that it has a large battery that can be charged at a slaw rate from a modest grid connection. Say its a 100 kW battery and the biggest circuit the store owner can supply is 27 kW (the maximum input this unit can accept). In 3...
  11. Lucid Air EV Has a Projected 517 Miles of Range, and We Saw 458 Miles on a Real-World Ride-Along

    Well it is vapor when it enters the fuel cell but it is liquid when stored in the tank. The vaporware would be the evaporator (liquid enters and flases to vapor - Voila! - gas) but that's only a tiny part of the vehicle.
  12. Lucid Air EV Has a Projected 517 Miles of Range, and We Saw 458 Miles on a Real-World Ride-Along

    The breakpoint comes when the electric and ice vehicles have comparable range and the BEV is less expensive. We are pretty close to that in cars. It's a tall order in trucks and there is diminishing returns with respect to added weight vs added range with electric. Interestingly enough I got...
  13. Lucid Air EV Has a Projected 517 Miles of Range, and We Saw 458 Miles on a Real-World Ride-Along

    Barring snow, rain or fierce winds, shouldn't be a problem. Would very likely present challenges. If moving the trailer requires as much energy as the truck (which doesn't seem unreasonable for load that weighs as much as the truck) your range will be cut in half. If it it takes twice as much...
  14. Lucid Air EV Has a Projected 517 Miles of Range, and We Saw 458 Miles on a Real-World Ride-Along

    Not a bad guess at all! It evidently has a 135 kWh battery. If you assume 150 Wh/kg that gives 2.2*135/.150 = 1980 lbs - just shy of a ton. It's all in the physics, folks. If the S had a 135 kWh battery its range would be 403*135/100 = 544.05. Note that the CT will require 185 kWh to get that...
  15. Ground-Breaking Method To Make Graphene From Garbage Is Modern-Day Alchemy

    Actually, it is. If you take that slide and lightly press a piece of scotch tape onto the carbon smudge and then onto a piece of paper you will leave a layer of graphene, one atom thick, on the paper. Note that it was at Rice that Buckminsterfullerene (the spherical equivalent) was discovered...
  16. Nikola is going to crush Tesla with its new technology!

    Cars, no but trucks, probably yes with the difference being that hydrogen is expensive to generate, transport and store in a non industrial setting. There are already businesses in existence that fuel industrial trucks in an industrial setting. Every Amazon and Whole Foods warehouse uses them...
  17. Nikola is going to crush Tesla with its new technology!

    Folks need to be reminded from time to time that Nikola's business plan is based on selling hydrogen - not trucks. The central idea is that they will buy electricity for 4¢/kWh (a penny over wholesale) and use it to produce H2 by hydrolysis. Hydrogen in the trucking industry has a tremendous...
  18. Infinite Range with Ecat SKL "Cold Fusion" Cell

    The USPO does not accept patent applications for perpetual motion machines. This patent has nothing to do with Ecat. As noted in my previous post this "publication" is in a pay me and I'll publish you journal. If you click the link it even lists the content as "advertisement" and says that it...
  19. Infinite Range with Ecat SKL "Cold Fusion" Cell

    Actually, these "Journals" are getting to be a problem in the scientific community. "Publish or Perish" as he saying goes in academia. Can't get one of the real, respected, peer reviewed journals to accept your paper? No problem. We have a little journal right here just for you! I used to get...
