Brilliant!

Only two burned in last year flood, not a great risk considering that the cars are already submerged in water.

From the Herald Tribune: There were 21 electric vehicle-related fires after Hurricane Ian in 2022 and two EV battery fires due to the floodwaters that followed Hurricane Idalia in 2023.

Even ice cars are write-offs after being submerged in salty water.

This is a quote from the report: The product may contain an unsuitable fuse. You may say that is extreme but imagine for a moment what can happen if the charger's mains lead does not have a fuse. The tracks on the charger's PCB become the fuse. If there is not enough separation between the...

I know you invite critical thinking but even Fox News' own poll shows Harris leading Trump by 3 points in Georgia. Harris also leads in NV, PA and WI and even may win Florida.

for me, the reason why the British economy stagnates is the over reliance on the banks. We bet our house on the big four banks, litterally, since MT was in power. When the crisis of 2008 arrived, Gordon Brown has little choice than supporting the banks. The consequence of that is the...

Nobody complains about charging your phone with USB-C port standardisation for example. My experience is standardisation brings costs down.

I remember professor John Curtis told bbc1 a few days before the brexit vote that brexit has edged ahead in the last week or two.

Rasmussen poll the same people, about 6% more republicans than Democrats. The vast majority of pollsters give Harris 4% lead over Trump who seems now more bizarre than ever before. He's claimed at his last rally that women have always loved him and he is now their protector.

Trump is less likely to win in 6 weeks. Harris is leading by 6 points in overall votes and leads Trump in popularity. Trump and Vance may even be arrested before the election if the Haitians of Springfield Ohio win in Court. Haitian nonprofit files longshot charges against Trump, Vance over...

You worry too much that our government is going to shut down gas power stations. Nobody is going to build new gas fired power stations. The old ones will close when their running costs becomes unprofitable and that will happen within a decade or two at most. At the moment, molten salt reactors...

None of these things is going to happen for a decade or two. Renewables will replace gradually gas power stations like gas replaced coal in the past. I watch what the Chinese are doing. They have already done more for renewables than any other country in the world, and not just by producing...

They describe it as a 750W bike, clearly not street legal without number plate.

Can you post a link to the Engwe bike that has been seized? As far as I know, if the bike is described as EN15194 compliant, it must not have twist and go throttle.

EV's batteries are cheaper year after year. If the Chinese can make and sell a family car for $7,000 in China (medium sized family saloon, 500km range), how much do you think the car's battery costs?

rich people have forceful lawyers. Their lawyers go in with all the means to push back public prosecutors and buy whatever extra facilities they can get. I am pretty sure if Trump goes to jail some time in the future, he won't lose any of his creature comfort except perhaps his private jets.

I thought it's clear enough. Tongsheng makes the motors, they label them anyway they like.

they could ask Tongheng to label their motor as 250W like I do. BTW, the price that PSW is selling does not include VAT and duty.

If all the cars were electric, you'd have on average 20 millions * 50kWH = 1,000GWH storage capacity available to put back to the grid. If you look at the cost of griod level storage batteries, it's about $200/kwh or $200 millions per GWH.
