Any safety concerns with a 1kV automobile electric system. Sounds like a FAFO situation waiting to happen.

Ten bucks says this won’t work, or the battery won’t accept a charge rate like that below about 45° F.

I predict a lot of explosive results.

Don’t leave your family and pets in the car while it’s attached to 50,000 amps. Sitting on top of a potential lightning bolt while driving is no bargain either.

It seems to me since they are made in China, there may be some yet unexplored hazards. With the kind of voltage they are using, you would need the appropriate home charger, especially here where I live. I think we might have one charger in the whole town as we have a couple Teslas running around & that’s about all. With thee higher voltage, I wonder if that doesn’t increase the fire hazrd possibility also. I will pass;someone else can take the chances. I would be happy if there were no more EVs until somebobody can solve ALL the inherent problems.
