I think the main takeaway from the entire presentation is: 16% increase in range based on battery design alone (read: better cell geometry = more capacity). Also important is this is not vaporware... these are batteries being produced, right now, at a scalable prototype facility. A ~50%...

The two potentially very beneficial use cases I see are 1. places where engine block heaters are considered if not mandatory then highly recommended or 2. cold weather car camping. Background: I have over 15k miles on my year old model3, it is not just the daily driver but has become the...

I have seen several threads on the effects of cold weather on battery dynamics and had an idea: If I were faced with severe cold weather and wanted to maximize both the longevity of the battery and availability of regenerative braking the goal would be to maintain the optimum battery temperature...

Thank you for the input. I could run the ChargePoint off the NEMA 14-50 which would allow for future flexibility, and/or reduced replacement/repair of the charger. This would also provide for the off season option of unpluging the charger and storing upstairs, depending on the mounting...
