How would that work in a Swiss car? No matter how hard you try, you can’t get the darn thing out of neutral.

If they have achieved four times the energy density, that is a really big F’n deal, as Joe Biden would say.

That would make all sorts of things possible, like electric aircraft, or cars with four times the range. That kind of an advance might actually make electrics competitive.

600 miles is about as far as I would usually drive in a day. If they achieve that kind of range, with an overnight recharge, such a vehicle would meet all of my needs.

I recently went to a hardware store to buy a smoke alarm with the standard 9v battery and they only had new ones with 10 year warranty and totally sealed. Then I read the box and it said something about “nuclear” substance inside and that was why it was sealed and 10 year warranty. Can cars use a similar technique?

“Also included free are a bottle of pills that will make your di*k grow a foot.”

I’ll pass on the battery breakthrough, but I’ll take the pills!

We have former friends who have a daughter living in Bend, Or., and they now live west of Sacraemento.

They helped her to buy her current home with the stipulation, they come up and live in their own bedroom during the hot summers/early falls in Sac.

The distance each way is about 420 miles or 849 round trip.

He was going to buy an electric car to drive up and back. I told his daughter to do the math re a range of less than 300 miles. Math like for most greenies, math is not there for him.

After she did the math, he bought a Chevy pickup with a diesil.

He dosen’t fill up here. He fills up in Oregon at a lot less in Cali/gal. On his return trip, he fills up at the Oregon border.

He and his wife kept her Pious to drive around town and to blend in with other greenies.

Good energy density, keep going. We need at least as much investment in battery technology as we’ve had in gender disphoria.

For a second there I thought it would shrink it to a foot.

Yes, but no one would buy one!........... 😲 Actually, the nuclear part is in the detection device part, not the power supply...... 😉

[Red Badger]

We’ve had the technology to make a nuclear powered vehicle for decades, but until you guarantee that no accidents will cause A disaster, then no sales!.......

why would i want another foot, when shoes only come in pairs.

The 2019 version of the 150 miles per gallon carburettor.

Unless you work at IHOP.

I see the name Fisker mentioned. Wasn’t it Fisker that took investment money from the US, for development of an electric car, then moved production to Finland until the company ran out of money and went buns up?

[Red Badger]

But there was a 100 mpg carb!!!!!!!!!!!! My cousin's best friend's hairdresser's uncle saw it!..................😝

[Red Badger]

Yep, then the Superstorm Sandy destroyed their inventory.......

[gunsequalfreedom]

Hydrogen has had this range for a decade.

Also included free are a bottle of pills that will make your di*k grow a foot.

Well, he uses one weird trick that Big Pharma doesn't want you to know about.

[Army Air Corps]

It really shouldn’t have any feet...

[mad_as_he$$]

lol...I had a guy that worked for me that tried every one of the mileage improvement devices. In the end he caught his truck on fire and burned it to the ground.

As far as the 100 mpg carb goes it cant’ work unless you have a Messerschmidt KR200.
