The EVs are working through early problems. The next generation is sure to have the problems solved. The EV Firebird and EV Phoenix projects are funded by SBF to solve all of the problems.

Those names remind me of the 18650 batteries I got via eBay, brand name “Ultra Fire”...

“The EVs are working through early problems.”

The LI batteries are high in energy density, meaning if the energy of a modest-sized battery is discharged suddenly you’ll get a nasty fire or explosion. There’s no escaping that.

The LI batteries need intelligence built into them to prevent conditions that can cause explosive discharge. Kinda scary with big batteries.

I have a few tools with LI batteries. No problems. I like them. If I wanted to waste some money I’d short one out and see what happens. Actually, the intelligence within the battery would probably recognize that and shut it off.

Try again. There have been battery-only EVs since the 1830s. That's more than 190 years. How long you reckon before they'll have them sorted?

Yeah no worries everything will be fine. The Prius was introduced in 1997. So sure you’re right it’s only been 25 years and the problems get worse not better but hey it’s “early problems”.
