My cabin runs on LiPo4 batteries or Lithium Iron Phosphate so I'm a huge fan of battery powered things. I'm just not excited about any of the Electric cars. Lucid is pretty cool though but still no desire to have one. I'm planning on going this direction. My buddy in Louisiana converts  electric golf carts to solar. This one buggy of his has 10,000 Wh  LiPo4 batteries at 36v which also runs his cabin when needed in Summer months to run the A/C or the entire cabin. 

Unless I can charge one of these cars using the Sun at my home.. I'll not ever want one. Plus we need more carbon in our atmosphere so plants can grow. All this Climate Change war on carbon shit is pure BULL FUCKING SHIT. I'm on solar for the independence not having to pay anyone a bill or taxes. I burn my trash to offset the carbon I'm not producing.

My Cabin I built is running  on 11.5 Wh LiPo4 from BigBattery.com. No bills minus my phone and car insurance for 3 years and going. Not bad for a stupid idiot huh?

This is a Solar generator Off Grid Gary built. Just an example of portable power to do whatever is needed from Welding , power tools to cooking. 

If anyone plans on going off grid... it's easier today then ever. So many advancements you can live free from bills like I and you can do it all yourself.  

As for an electric car... needs to be something 48v not 400v like a Tesla. But you can modify a Tesla battery into a 48v system then you can charge it using Solar. I'll find the video that a congressman from Kentucky runs his  house on one he setup all himself.

Not your average Golf Cart. Never needs gas. Never needs to be plugged in but he did just make a power station to plug 3 more 300W panels to speed up charging two days ago. Otherwise it will charge on it's own  and it has ran for 2 years just on one panel.

He's working on a Chevy Volt battery for a friend of his. It caught fire and he put it out with Baking Soda... 

Not sure how to get the word out but you can put Lithium fires out with Baking Soda. Dyslexic's figure this kind of shit out because we try everything that seem to make sense. Naturalize the Ph with Baking Soda that neutralized the Ph. 

After meeting Gary I realized us Dyslexics make for great Engineers.

Trying to find the one where cooks dinner using the Golf carts power. It can run a 120V Welder so it can cook too. 

To show how much power this thing has.. here you go. Can your Gas  or Lead Acid cart do this. hahahaha Hell no it cant.

If I could do Hydroelectric I'd be on that in a flash. Having constant running water blows away Solar hands down. 

For I we get 275 days of Sunshine or so a year so Solar is doable. I have only seen it super cloudy here the entire day maybe 15 times in 4 years. But I do get bad solar days and I then have to turn stuff off. Keeping my Refrigerator going has not once been a problem and I always have one laptop running for entertainment and communications. 

Gosh I could not even imagine living in a place with 275 days of no Sun. You'd have to put me on suicide watch if I lived there.

I bet them days working at GM has many memories. Yes I can see admiration for the other teams product. 

I don't even remember the EXP. If I had seen one I probably thought it was a Mustang I guess. Going to watch this. Maybe from the back end I will remember it.

If I had seen this I would've thought it was a Mercury. Not bad millage on highway. 0-60 9 seconds. The Tires turn to dust when braking hard. hahhaa Firestone my guess They are a hazarded even in a landfill. jk

I have a year long prescription of vitamin D.

I think its because we live north of the lakes  and Hudson bay is sending this shitty weather.

last summer (june to end of august only 22 days of sun) and we had a lot of smoky days due to wood fires in upper north.

That is rough, 22 days is so little. Yea you need that supplement or a ton of Cod. I bet everyone goes outside like it's Christmas or a huge party when the Sun's out. I would. I bet a beautiful area when you can see it. hahaha jk

I think Mexico is doing controlled burns because we have been covered in smoke for two days. Yesterday it was so think it rained in the valley but the rain was evaporating before it hit the ground. It looks cool when it does that.
