If electric was so good in boats why is the navy still using steam or combustion engines the last 100 years
Google "how do submarines work" my dude.

I mean, I already told you, and you still made that post, confirming your ignorance is intentional, but here we are anyway.



Quote from CTRFK8 :
The fact is you think tesla battery tech will change in your life time is pretty funny to say the least
It is given it has changed multiple times just in the last 5 years.

18650s with first gen chemistry, now we're on 18650s with generations newer in the S/X, 2170s several gens in in most 3/Y, and 4680s gen 2 of those coming in Cybertrucks.

Plus all the LFP powered cars out there now.

And the multiple generations of batteries they've introduced in the various stationary storage products.



Quote from CTRFK8 :
So driving a tesla semi truck 300 to 500 miles is comparable to a diesel truck that can do 2k miles

....what?

The Tesla semi is doing over 1000 miles a day- already-

https://electrek.co/2023/09/29/te...i%2Dtrucks.

And doing it [B}vastly cheaper[/B] than a diesel truck can per mile.

If you don't understand how revolutionary that is... well, nevermind, I've read your posts, I'm sure you don't LMAO


Quote from CTRFK8 :
. Let's see it takes 21 hours to charge a tesla truck
Let's see.... you're saying grossly false things again.

Quote :
It takes less than half an hour to top up a Tesla Semi electric rig to 95% battery capacity on the dedicated 750kW Megacharger stations that Pepsi uses for them


Quote from CTRFK8 :
. . So I guess you are saying electric boats will be the future
Dude. Again. They are also the past AND the present on, for example, most submarines in the world.

And have been for over a century.

Thus your hilariously ignorant OMG ELECTRIC BOATS WILL KILL YOU post being so damn funny.

Established in 1899, Electric Boat has established standards of excellence in the design, construction and lifecycle support of submarines for the U.S. Navy.
1899. Still the primary builder of US submarines today.

Not just subs either-


https://www.ge.com/news/reports/u...-destroyer

2016, US navy comissions its largest and most advanced stealth destroyer.

It uses a 78 megawatt onboard power station to power GE induction electric motors to directly turn the propellers and power the sensors, weapons, etc.

As the story notes:
Quote :
GE has been supplying electric propulsion technology to the shipping industry for a century. The Navy's first electrically propelled ship, the aircraft carrier USS Jupiter, was commissioned in 1913.

Question for owners/electricians

I already have a 50A wall outlet on the exterior of my home, but it's used for a portable generator & has a breaker for that in my panel (with an interlock kit).

How much would it cost to either add a second 50A outlet on the exterior for charging, or is it possible to somehow make the existing outlet dual purpose? The panel is in my basement essentially directly below the wall outlet on ground level.

The panel & feed to my home were upgraded as part of the setup for my portable generator.

Thanks!

I pay $1,300 per six months for a 2023 Model Y Dual Motor Long Range - I'm in Houston, mid-40's, 2 no fault accidents within the past 7 years, insurance through Farmers. I got quotes from State Farm which was about the same. Progressive quoted about $100 cheaper, and offered a greater discount if I used their driving app that monitors driving (another $100 or so discount). Houston roads are the worst and lots of uninsured/under-insured motorists on the road.
A Honda is like 120 bucks a month with your driving record. Gotta pay to play with toys i guess. I wonder what a hybrid would have cost or an electric car from another manufacturer would have cost.
That seems very high. But it could also be your city .

Quote from CTRFK8 :
Yeah you might be able to save 39 bucks vs going to a dealer . The whole point why the tesla picks up nails is because its AWD and has alot of torque off the line. instant torque for that matter because its all electric.. So one could easily argue that a tesla is more acceptable to flat tires and picking up nails vs another car made with less torque or traction.
CTRFK8I test drive a model y performance at the tesla dealership. I returned it with a nail in the tire and it was flat and un drivable after a hour of use.

500.00 repair? I wouldn't trust a patch , let alone a plugg on how much torque these thing have.
​I agree that torque and weight can negatively impact tire life. I'm less sure it makes much of a difference in getting a flat from a nail.

Pretty sure he said model Y, but hey if you want to move the goal posts to the model S, I think the Z06 is more fair comparison?

Usually not much if you have a good electrician and you buy the materials at home depot or lowes. I have two 50amp outlets in my garage and one can easily use your entire box rating with two. I am maxed out at 200 kw since I installed two separate 20amp circuits and two 50amp outlets on each side of the garage wall. If you have a jacuzzi or AC & humidifier whole house then you could be maxed out already which would cost a ton of money to install a new or second box. You could run the wires and hook up the outlets, let the electrician work and advise you on the circuit breaker. Should cost less than 200.00 if you ran the wire and bought the materials.
Just my opinion .

We used the 120v on a bolt for months and on a m3 for a few weeks before we got around to a 240v installation. It is inconvenience but it's easy to work around if we kept it in mind
Was that your only car when you were using 120V to charge?

How long to charge from empty, like 20% to full, 100%? In case you need to go somewhere.

I insure a civic and a 23 M3 tesla (2 drivers) for $920 a year at $100k/300k liability with 1k comprehensive and 2.5 collision with Geico, my driving score is 98. Tesla insurance was going to be like $1100-$1200.
I guess this answers my question, you had a civic to use while you were charging with the 120V charger

Z06 would destroy the model s plaid on the second lap.
Besides all tesla's will throw the over heat battery warning after 1 lap so what's the point buy a plaid as a track car when combustion is superior and easy to work on. Until I see a tesla in Nascar then one shouldn't even talk about tesla as a track car. Its only good for 1/4 runs at full battery.

I personally would take a z06 over plaid if a cop was chasing me. besides I keep 5 gallons of gas in my back seat or modify the gas tank to get longer range lol. try doing that in a tesla

Normally it's pretty easy to make it a dual socket with something like this:

https://ev-lectron.com/products/l...j8EALw_wcB

That said I'm unsure how the fact the generator might be feeding power BACK in a blackout would be handled by this thing


Also some discussion on sharing one 50a feed to a shop here:

https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/t...ly.207992/



Adding a second socket if the panel is that close shouldn't be terribly hard though- would at least be worth talking to an electrician or two about.

MEANWHILE BACK IN REALITY

Quote from Someone who has actually driven a car on a track :
the battery pack became red after the third lap, (but) even with this limp mode, we have something like 500hp, so enough for continuing driving around on the track and overtaking 90% of the cars here


Quote from CTRFK8 :
Z0and easy to work on.
Know what's better than "easy to work on"?

"doesn't need to be worked on"

Depends what you mean by based on income.

If you mean because you make too much income- then no, no direct way around it. In theory if you can find a 3rd party leasing company to pass through the credit that'd be the only way (Tesla first party leasing does NOT do this, and also does not offer any option to buy at end of lease)


If you mean because you make too LITTLE income to have $7500 in tax liability then yes- as of Jan 1 2024 the credit becomes point of sale and you no longer need to have any specific amount of liability to get the full $7500.... this does not change the too-much-money income caps though.

You drive around with 5 gallons of gas sitting in your back seat? I'm actually starting to think you have a mental disorder.

If I had the choice to give my daughter a college grad a vehicle after 5 years of ownership and car would be paid off , would be a Subaru, Honda or toyota. Definitely not a tesla.

I for one believe gas prices will be 1.89 again within 2 to 3 years and is only matter of time a republican gets into office. tesla credits will be removed from law. ethanol and oil production will always be a options for at least another 10 to 15 years until we can reliably able to mine the battery materials and make electric cars more efficiently, meaning 600m range minimum . 300m range is just too little for most consumers living in America unless you like staying close to home.

we have more natural gas and oil under our feet than Saudi Arabia. there will never be a tank that is made in my lifetime that will be full electric during a war time use.
so get your electric credits now and hope you can deal with range anxiety in the future. its become next to impossible to publicly charge a tesla in California. car makers like Ford and others are on strike for the very reason they are spending billions to keep up with tesla and auto workers are not getting paid. so not only are you hurting the economy buying a tesla you are ruining the auto workers life . don't get me wrong if you like to drive locally a tesla is a great car to have but don't plan on keeping it after the warranty expires. you almost will need an emergency fund when the cars warranty expires
So you want to give your daughter a less safe car than Tesla which scores the highest safety points ever on Euro NCAP test? Got it.
