Hydrogen is the real future. But more $$$ and control in disposable batteries.. you can be nearly off the grid with the home Hydrogen system's Honda has been developing. Can't have that!!
All those rare earth metal mines China owns? Who do you think will gain the most from battery tech?
Hydrogen is inefficient with low energy density. It takes way more power to perform electrolysis and then use hydrogen than to just take the electricity you put into the electrolysis and charge a battery. Literally the only thing you gain is the ability to fill your tank faster if you're traveling long distance.
Too bad dems dont give a fuck about the logistics of any of their plans. Its feels good to them so they'll do it even though its blatantly going to fail.
We all look at the Texas incident as a blatant exposure, the globalists look at it as an absolute SUCCESS. They will push harder than ever to make all
Vehicles electric, it was always about control.
Old Lithium Cobalt cells were used in cell phones because they have high energy density but suffered lower cycle life. Cathode technology improved since then and have dramatically improved the amount of cycles you get. This is readily available information off of engineering spec sheets.
If electric cars had grid tie inverters, they would actually do great at mitigating power outages. Most cars won't be driving during these types of snow storms so they could actually be used to feed the needs of the house. EVs actually have a fuck ton of energy, and the power density is excellent to reduce brown outs.
God, I'm finally getting through the rest of his video. Fucking retarded. He talked about converting old cars to EV and showed a picture of a lead acid setup with a fucking brushed series wound motor. Great job, now you have a car with a 30-40 mile range, struggles to get to highway speeds, the cycle life is about 10 times worse than lithium (which he was complaining about cycle life), and the motor needs disassembly and brush replacement at regular intervals.
Some of what he said is true. But the one thing he got wrong is the power draw from electric cars overwhelming the grid. 90% of all EV charging occurs at night when there is virtually no power draw from other electrical loads to compete with. Cold and degradation are issues but not as much as Scotty is making them sound like. Love them or hate them EV's are the future.
It's not like you're home completely stops drawing power at night... You've still got large energy draws running. Fridge, AC, Freezers, Water Heaters, Fans, Alarm Systems, Outdoor Lights.
All you've really turned off are lights, tv and computers. Ovens, Dish Washers and Laundry units aren't a constant pull.
Also... People aren't going to be plugging in at 1 am or something.. it will be between 6-9pm when they GET HOME. Which is prime time for the electrical grid. And it's not 1 car per household... You've got mom, dad, and kids all gotta get their EVs charged.
We're not talking about electrical draw for a single home, it's the whole grid. Yes there are some things running at night, but it's a fraction. EV charging occurs in the wee off peak hours when rates are lowest. Yes you plug in when you get home but the chargers are smart and schedule the charging to actually start in the dead of night when the utility has low rates....cause there's nobody using it.
Love me some Scotty. He probably moved from Houston because it’s slowly turning into another Austin. At least that’s what he hinted at.
I haven't watched him in months. Where did he move to?
Something like Memphis Tennessee, or very similar.
Clarksville, TN I believe.
Gotcha. That's a surprise. He was in Houston for many years.
Scotty is based, although he avoids poilitics mostly
He's very entertaining to watch, too. I audibly chuckled several times.
pops out of a trunk Don't forget to ring that bell!
EV supporters always talk about how the batteries have heaters that run off "the cord", so no problem in the cold.
EXCEPT WHEN THERE IS NO POWER TO THE GODDAMNED CORD.
My cell phone is 2 years old and doesn't hold a charge for shit compared to when it was new.
Batteries naturally suffer degradation over time. its the Law of Entropy at work.
Plus China controls nearly all EV battery production, either directly, or indirectly as the main source of rare metals needed for the batteries.
The US putting all its eggs in the EV basket is just plain asinine.
With China Joe in charge, it's not a bug, it's a feature!

We should be building small nuclear power plants as fast as we can. Safe, reliable, scalable, carbon-free, and economical.
Scotty is awesome, true Americana.
Should count days until JToob bans him

That made a lot of sense.
Is Scotty based? As a car guy I can’t stand him but I could have a soft spot for him if he’s MAGA
Do they even know how many lil African children it takes to mine minerals for these batteries? I be not one Democrat has thought of them.
He's saying a lot but he doesn't know shit.

Show me an EV that will work in a Buffalo NY winter when it's 10 below and you need to go plow a foot of fresh lake effect to get out of the driveway.
