Yeah, try being in an electric car when you’re sitting in traffic to escape the coming hurricane.

Or going to get groceries when the power’s out in your area after a hurricane.

You know what the solution to these is?? An electric generator...powered by...gasoline.

Guys, what happened was 2 developments.

1) Neodynium magnets — that made electric motors stronger for the same amount of current.

2) Lithium batteries, that were an improvement over NiCad.

The problem is that is english, not math. The improvements were not X10. They were X3. That’s not enough to change society.

So gov’t got involved.

You’ll need at least two generators. One
for the house, one for the car. Can’t
rely on your solar panels, they’ve been
blown off the roof and your battery banks
have been under water.
