Believe it when I see it.
I used to sell industrial floor sweepers & floor scrubbers, often through forklift companies.
The bigger electric forklifts had swap out battery packs, big buggers but meant they could work 24/7.
Virtually all the large sweepers we sold for inside use were on LPG or CNG.

It seems that story is not true. It is another example of propaganda from the anti-electric vehicle lobby.

Truth and history are both viewed by the beholder at times[thumbsupbig]
When did you use your first computer, Mobile phone, Internet, tubeless tire, ABS breaking???
Vic 20 computer 1980s - It was a mates not mine. 1999 work phone, ..... Internet for me was pre internet as my work gave me a little link[thumbsupbig]
This story on the BBC is possibly well worth considering on EVs time frame and a very cool S Curve history lesson.
Why electric cars will take over sooner than you think - BBC News
Not suggesting ICE is dead. Just not sure how long its got left. [bighmmm]
Fully agree. My history update on the History of the Silk road ( New history) alchemy of Air- WW1, WW2 besides HaberBosch and now on a Russian history update via RED NOTICE floored me a few times[biggrin] One fact last night blew me away but not for this thread[bigwhistle]
The S curve technology changes even in my little world were more than interesting to see. While testing how may Covid/FLU vaccines we have done yesterday I tossed how many home phone numbers are still in my database. It was almost 100% less than 10 years ago. it is now sub 35% and suspect a lot of them are extinct. S curve in action goes both ways[bigrolf]
Truth and facts via science even are often further refined[biggrin] Lies and conspiracy theories are very much a part of history as well. Opium into China from India by the East India company was a well known one with long term impacts even a 100 years plus on.
Yes, very true about opium.
I was also interested to read recently that, while the ANZAC and others were being slaughtered at Gallipoli, Churchill had already betrayed them by signing a secret deal to hand Turkey over to the Russians.
Why are some people so vehemently anti EV that they need to latch onto fake propaganda and spread it.
The mere fact that it says acid and oil is leeching out - you know right there its fake news , if you cant see that your an imbecile.
The charger in my EV Landy failed early March ( yes clearly they are not 100% reliable) so I parked it up and ordered replacement, I finally got a new charger yesterday , yes its hard getting stuff from China, thanks Morrison, 3 month since it was parked up and each of the 45 cells are 3.25 +/- .005V
Plugged in the charger & all cells charged & balance as per normal. The conversion is 4 years old now & the battery performance is getting better as time goes on.
I just have to move stuff about to fit the new bigger charger .
