Company Builds Fast Charging Station For Electric Cars
thecarchik writes "Japanese based JFE Engineering has released its ultra-fast charge station. Designed to comply with the CHAdeMo standard developed by Tokyo Electric Power Company, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Subaru and Toyota, the system is capable of charging a 2011 Mitsubishi i-Miev from empty to 50% full in just three minutes. Even just three minutes plugged into the fast-charge station was enough to enable a standard 2011 Mitsubishi i-Miev to travel a further 50 miles before further charging was required."
I have never owned or even driven one save for a golf cart. My experience with the golf cart leaves me doubt as to whether an electric car can deliver enough torque to climb steep inclines.
Heck, what happens when you are stuck in snow all the while, the spinning of wheels eating away at your juice? Scary, isn't it?
So you can go over 900 miles with your car. Thats over 9000 decimiles.
God spoke to me.
I, for one, refuse to buy an electric vehicle until it has a range of 1000 miles on a single charge, and can be fully recharged in under 30 seconds. Anything less is completely impractical. I also want 12 cup holders. When they achieve this performance level, I will find another rediculous excuse not to buy one.
And I will continue to insist on my god given right to mis-spell rediculous.
Maybe they could use twice as many capacitors at half the size to get 100% efficiency. Assuming they use the good half.
I think you underestimate just how much I just dont care.
You forget, when items of the same functional type interact, they multiply. 50% x 50% = 2500%.
Every mans' island needs an ocean; choose your ocean carefully.
Let me complete your sentence:
Trump's plan to get rid of Mueller appears to be 'be so guilty of so many things that Mueller works himself to death.'
