"... as... noted previously, #Volvo says this car will have the lowest carbon footprint of any car it has sold, at below 30 metric tons after 124,274 miles (200,000 km)."

Because of leasing and dealer promotions — and lots of advertising — many people don't realize that cars ARE MEANT TO LAST for > 200k miles — and they do! https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=36914

"I love electric vehicles – and was an early adopter. But increasingly I feel duped (Sadly, keeping your old petrol car may be better than buying an EV. There are sound environmental reasons not to jump just yet)" — Rowan Atkinson (a.k.a. Mr. Bean)

#Goodnews New #battery with 4 times energy density of lithium-ion. We’re moving forward… #solidstatebatteries https://thedriven.io/2023/04/03/scientists-hail-new-battery-with-4-times-energy-density-of-lithium-ion/

Have a #generac #wholehouse #generator and have a question about its internal #battery
Last annual test/servicing, the tech suggested that I run the generator for 1 hour once every 3 months to keep the internal battery fully charged. Additionally test the automatic fail over during those runs.
Seems like an expensive way to keep the battery charged. Anyone doing this? Alternatives? TIA

Not only ARE lithium batteries being commercially recycled, the process is improving. Due in part to research by @IllinoisStateU alum at Argonne national laboratory #Lithium #battery #recycling https://news.illinoisstate.edu/2023/03/reuse-and-recharge-alum-discusses-the-power-of-lithium-ion-battery-recycling/
How not to lose it all - two-thirds of Europe's 1.8 TWh of #battery gigafactory projects are claimed to be at risk of delay or cancellation.

Haters gonna hate, and the graphics won’t let us lie about ir. The reality is that renewables pollute the least during their life cycle, and yes, yes the use of #minerals is being contemplated 😉.
We need to shutdown all the myths behind #renewable and #clean energy.

I've published a new version of BatterGuesstimate app, it now also works with the Garmin Instict Crossover watch: https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/572b8232-7fb6-4e4f-a938-2395d0df3c7c#0
The app
1. shows the battery charge over time (including charge from solar)
2. estimates how long the battery would last (better than the build-in estimation)
3. notifies the phone when a set threshold is reached during charging (to extend the battery lifetime)
code and details: https://github.com/individual-it/BatteryGuesstimate/

After 5 years of heavy use my battery banks aren't holding a charge like they used to. So, today I'm testing out Anker's 737 86Wh charger. I've been running my M1 Max MBP off it for the past 6 hours and it's still going strong. With that said, it helps the M1 chips are insanely efficient. Without the losses from AC to DC conversion, browsing, slack, and Ulysses only pulls ~10W.
Idle, with the display at 50% brightness it pulls about 5W
