government regulation to force companies to begin using a modular system

Yeah, that’s fair. But the issue is also similar to cell phones.

Each battery is unique because it needs to fit the unique layout of the vehicle. Not to mention the battery tech is moving so fast, that the chemistry of the battery itself is changing every few years.

I suspect China’s approach to a vehicle where you hot-swap the batteries instead of charging will be the way it goes. Someone will do it, it will be most $$$ efficient and therefore profitable, and then it will force them all to adopt the same approach.

The replacing the battery is simply a supply issue.

There is such a demand and so little supply, that if you want to buy just a battery (and not the entire car) you are out of luck. They’ll put that battery in a new car and sell it before selling it to you as a replacement.

But that’s short term. There are a huge number of battery plants already breaking ground and coming online.

In 2 years or so, the price to replace the battery will be a HELL of a lot lower, and the issue you linked above will be long gone.

I can now finally solder things easier.

Use Push to Talk a lot more while gaming.

yeah, just because you’re not used to it, doesn’t make 24hz good.

That’s like saying modern animation is garbage and we should stick to stop-motion animation.

Motion interpolation is the best thing ever.

Ya know, I wouldn’t mind ads,

If google would just FUCKING LISTEN TO MY CURATING DECISIONS!!

No, I’m never going to buy a car based off an ad. Block em all.

No, I’m never switching insurance companies based on an ad.

No, I’m not interested in mobile games. Ever.

And yet when I tell google, block this content, not interested, I don’t want to see this particular topic.

It just doesn’t fucking listen.

You’d think this would be an absolute GOLD MINE of information that google would want, to better focus their ads,.

But they just ignore it,

It’s not about linking people to stuff they are interested in and taking a percentage… it’s about wasting everyone’s fucking time, and then they wonder why people run ad blockers.

Ask all those that had shit on Megaupload in 2012.

Encrypted or not. Still lost.

Your phone battery is not the same tech as OP is talking about

None of the information you find here or on the internet in general will be correct, because most of information is either older nicad or nickle metal hydride, or when talking about lithiums people are talking LiPoly which is not your Lithium Iron Phosphate.

Your best bet is to ask the LiFeP04 manufacturer

I’m not sure why you say that. They are not.

Nah, you can’t beat the power density of hydraulics and never will unless room temp superconductors become a thing.

Big Dog from Boston Dynamic was hydraulic.

Going that size or bigger, hydraulics is a must.

The reason you don’t see it is hydraulics is a completely different ball game.

Controls researchers stick with small and electronic, because that’s what they know.

It’s very rare to find a controls engineer that understands hydraulics.

And the hydraulics experts out there, don’t have the background for sophisticated control theory.

yes, like 10+ years ago.

Still a joke, not sure why they don’t get a proper hydraulic control person involved in these projects.

Yes. The primary source of power.

It’s not like I’m making shit up out of thin air. This is typical nomenclature for safety systems.

If you have an air system, the prime mover would be an pressurized air tank or accumulator.

Properly recognizing the prime movers of a system and defeating them correctly is part of safety.

Because it’s a main source of active power that can be re-directed.

A battery on an EV can be too, in which case the main contactor should be verified disconnected prior to any software update. But typically people don’t refer to that as the ‘engine’.

So prime mover encompasses engines and main batteries.

It’s a safety issue.

Crazy inexplicable things can happen when modern cars have electrical control access to brakes/steering/throttle.

Firmware doesn’t take right, download message emulates by accident another message, random bit flipping that even CRC checks miss.

There’s no reason to risk any of that. Just shut the engine off.

WTF,

I don’t care if it’s just the infotainment system.

Engine (prime mover) should be off for any update on any vehicle.
