Good for urban use where noise and fumes are a concern - and power is close at hand [emoji41]Quote:

They are used underground and in enclosed areas for fume reduction. They are twice the price of a diesel offering so a specialised bit of kit - they charge off a 32 amp 3 phase supply so you need decent power on hand to recharge them. 'A full days work per charge' is based on going through 3 battery packs supplied with the unit, but they fit the market they are designed for very well.Quote:

Love a round up that inserted a 2021 WOW FCEV Landrover I missed. Only a test so I guess not that much of a surprise
FCEV future: Every brand working on hydrogen fuel cell tech - EV Central
"The most capable and rugged of the Land Rover family could soon have the lightest footprint. Land Rover has announced it will begin a trial of FCEV tech in the Defender from late in 2021. Using some government money and a wide range of partners, the British brand wants to learn more about hydrogen and how it can work in an off-road application and for towing. Land Rover already has various plug-in hybrid models available and will soon start offering the Defender P400e PHEV.
"
Nice :) noting getting a Hydrogen refuel is a Altona only option here in Vic and Sydney I hear. A single Toyota Mirai at a EV charge point in Torquay was the first and only one I have actually seen live to date. I'll be waiting for refueling options before I could change my tow tug. [bighmmm]
So that is why China needs all those new Coal Fired power stations to produce electricity to charge those clean electric cars.!!!!

The Miria or what ever it is called has been in the US for around 12 yrs,so they should be way ahead of the rest.

RACV Q NRMA likley to add a 20km quick charge to help IF you stuff up in a EV[biggrin] Happily a nifty Australian venture as well
Melbourne start-up launches charging units for stranded electric cars
Add 50-100km range as a option might be interesting as well for long weekends "Those modules will provide 50 to 100 kms of range – with the intention for the service to be cheaper than petrol. For EV owners without home charging – they see with one or two session a week, the service can work to provide for an EV that is always charged and/or ready to make it to a DC charger and get away for a long weekend."
A little range anxiety soother perhaps Linked IN suggest 'Start" is "Renewable Energy Semiconductor Manufacturing" and Canberra based?
I wonder if it is a Supercapacitor or bog standard Lithuim DC to DC CCS plug type charge?
