Hi, everyone. I started rolling some of my higher strike / shorter expiry calls. So the stock is free to break out now
Ack, we're both wrong (I think, my brain hurts).Wouldn't that be a 14060?
Thanks Karen.

If they're no use... then why did Tesla buy Maxwell? Automotive performance for increased roadster 0-60 or something?Right. As a primer, the largest Maxwell capacitor is 3V 3,400 Farad. That is 4.25 Wh. A Tesla 2170 is ~3.75V @ 6 Ah, or 22.5 Wh, five times the energy.
Maxwell 's cap is 138x60mm or a 1460 cell, so it is a little smaller, but not 5 times. 2170s also have significantly less droop that fully discharging a capacitor.
They can take/ source large currents, but not for very long. Where these could be handy is in power filtering/ short term backup. They can handle 225 Amps of ripple at 40 degrees C and have a rated 10 year lifespan at 100 Amps. With an oversized inverter, they could potentially get one through their home AC startup transient.

I think we are on the same page. I definitely agree that legacy makers are confused about it. There is 1 car market, not 2.i think you slightly missed my point ... i was saying their share of the EV market is NOT eroding, because the "EV market" really is just the entire automobile market, and therefore their market share is expanding by leaps and bounds.
I was half joking, but at the same time i think it's a huge mistake (the same one major manufacturers have been making for years) to cleave the automobile market into arbitrary EV and non-EV segments. Cars are cars.
Did anyone catch the falling knife ?
Oh yeah, I guess the H vs L dimensions were reversed there...Ack, we're both wrong (I think, my brain hurts).
18650 -> 18 mm diameter x 650 mm long, 164 cm^3
2170 -> 21 mm diameter x 700 mm long, 242 cm^3
60138 (6014) - > 60 mm diameter x 138 mm long, 390 cm^3
So 1/5 the energy and 1.6x the volume = 1/8 the volumetric energy density?
Edit: Wrong thread, I meant GREEN.
Better check your math on that one.Particles in thermal equilibrium follow a Maxwellian distribution; for a high-temperature Maxwellian plasma, the high-energy long tails can undergo fusion via quantum tunneling past the Coulomb barrier. Lanthanum (La) is the 57th element, so the fusion of two TSLa would be TSFl (the latter being element 114, flerovium)
Okay, maybe that was too nerdy...
It wouldn't surprise me if other EV companies license access to the Supercharger network. Tesla could then collect a license fee per car and/or a fee for charging. At the rate the SC network is growing, it will be prohibitively expensive and time consuming for another car company to try and match that, and they probably wouldn't even want to.
Once there are enough cars using SC, I could see Tesla licensing the rights to own/operate a SC to third parties.
Please, people: anyone who's not done the math on how adding ultracapacitors actually affects EVs (vs. the same mass/volume of batteries), please stop commenting until you've actually done so.
Oh yeah, I guess the H vs L dimensions were reversed there...
To add even more wrongerness, the 650 dimension is 65mm not 650 (dunno why they had that trailing "0" in the early nomenclature)
That also means the 70 dimension is 70, not 700mm.
That would also imply that, with the newest naming scheme, something that was 140mm long would be a "140", not a "14"
meh....well maybe...but although he is just the sorry delivery boy for the big money aligned against Tesla ...I will let the stronger stomached among us look at his drivel.“Know your enemy”

Elon’s G650 is descending for Seattle. I wonder what he’s up to now.

Agreed. This is the best way to lock down the IP. The only reason to purchase the company rather than just licencing the tech is to stop other from using it.So have I---about 5 years. I'll lose a point or so. but will be adding about another 400 TSLA. Thank you very much.
Edit: MXWL has recently talked about getting potential design wins with major OEMs. I believe this merger is a pre-emptive move on TSLA's part.
