Thread: EV general discussion

yes maybe to both of you, but we , Australia will not be given any choices.

there is always going to be some form of "nasty" footprint , no matter what form of energy is finally chosen to replace the ICE we have been fond of for over 100yrs.

Speaking of energy.

Today on site a 30kva genset was observed running a Ctek25 to charge 4x Optima Yellow tops.
Excellent application

slight bit of overkill.......

I see similar all the time. We currently have 2 x 200KVA’s with a customer who said they needed “at least 180KVA” - they are running 7 amps - about once a day an 11KW motor starts as well - ideal application for the 30 you have at work running the charger. 👍

Had to chuckle at this. A billionaire brought one. Assume its too pricey for me. its so ugly its cute It ain’t pretty, but SCG 010 Zero version of Baja 1000-winning ute takes 5min to refuel and offers 1600km range

Set to be powered by a development of the race truck’s hydrogen fuel-cell, the headline news is SCG hydrogen tanks take just five minutes to fill from empty and provide an incredible 1600km range.

Two non 4wd FCEV cars arriving here is sort of news. "Toyota Mirai and Hyundai Nexo are in a neck-and-neck race to launch Australia’s first fleet of hydrogen-powered cars."Like others have pointed out BEV seems more logical for 90% of cars still.

Discussion on local radio yesterday - an Orange firm is moving into a new factory to start on 2,000 conversions of Landcruisers and Hiluxes to EVs over the next five years.

Interestingly, the company supplying them with kits for the work is Tempo in Germany. I assume this is the same company that was building 80" Landrovers under licence with their own steel body in the early 1950s.
