183 fires for about 100,000 ebikes is much too much when you consider how much collateral damage versus the cost of preventative measures.

Bms needs to be specified to meet standard norms. It's the weakest link atm. Loads of quality batteries will stop charging when the bms detects a dangerous condition. Why shouldn't all bmses be forced to have that feature?

None of these things add to the current costs or a couple of £ at most. It's just legislation. Doing nothing is not progress. Bad products will continue getting into our homes. PS: Data logging in the bms will enable predictive replacement and stop overcharging old or damaged batteries.

What would you like to propose to make battery safer? Require that all cells must have anti explosion device? Standardise charging port? Data logging?

what is not fair that billionaires pay on average less than the estimated 6% in tax over the fortune they amassed. The simple reason is they can channel their profit to trusts, often in tax havens, rather than themselves. They then use that tax free money to buy nice big houses here. When they...

you could look at a period into the future by extrapolating the past. Climate change is usually understood by the damage it does to food producing land. Large aeras become too hot or too dry to grow crops. You can of course discard those conclusions based on cherry picking. There are still...

Have you heard of NFCGate? There is a malware that uses NFCGate to clone your card. Features On-device capture: Captures NFC traffic sent and received by other applications running on the device. Relay: Relays NFC traffic between two devices using a server. One device operates as a "reader"...

I am not surprised. For years, Chinese rewrapped cells found their way into our homes. Now we may have to sit out for perhaps 10 years to see them gone out of business.

Grievances like asylum seekers are given priority for council houses.

not suppress, just hold accountable. If you and I sow division, whip up grievances, push people to riot, we'll be hauled up in Court.

If you post the same things that he says on TV, Starmer's prosecutors may read your posts. If he says it on GBNews then it's political debates. Some may think that they pay him to say things than you and I can't say.

you may have to install latest windows update right away. Google up CVE-2024-38063. Microsoft has released its August 2024 Patch Tuesday update to address 90 security vulnerabilities. The update includes fixes for six zero-day flaws actively exploited across various products and services, such...

cars are parked too close to one another. I don't think which fuel the first car has is a big factor. Battery technology has matured a lot in the last few years, they are a lot safer than petrol cars.

count yourselves lucky. One time, they lost my shipment in their warehouse for two weeks. I got charged about £1,000 in bonded warehouse rentals.

It's not the founders who created the wealth but those who worked in their businesses. The latter got their education from the state etc. If they pay their taxes properly, I would not mind that they are very rich. A lot of them do no more than buy and sell shares.

The main issue with using LFP instead of Li-ion for ebikes is weight. Li-ion 21700 5000mAH 3.6V 18WH, weighs 68g LFP 32700 6000mAH 3.2V 19.2WH weighs 141g Let's say you want to build a small 36V pack. You can do 10S1P with 10 x Li-ion 21700 cells, 680g. You'll need 11S1P with x LFP 32700...

AI is still in development. Smaller models are trained with synthetic data. About Tony Heller position on CO2, I think he picks and chooses his data. I live in a small town in France and a big town in the UK, I can easily compare the two locations, the air, the water etc. Real climate is very...

Try yourself to make AI hallucinate, especially with claude.ai. It's not easy at all.

If certification is introduced, you'll see ebike batteries be switched over to LFP. It's cheaper and safer than Lithium-ion.

All I want is common standards of decency and respects for moderation in the exchanges. When you remove all rules to debate, the bullies win.
