Cheap, light, long lasting storage is a game changer.

Still need to burn/nuke whatever to create the stuff you store!
Not wind and solar, the big problem with both being that they are intermittent ...

85% and greater seems fairly common for lead acid chargers. I'm sure that could be much better for SLA and lithium chargers since those batteries don't need to bubble for complete charging.

Your charging efficiency number is off as well. Flooded lead comes in around 70%, sealed lead AGM types even higher above 90%

wakeupman needs to wake up himself and do some research before posting. His numbers are completely off. EV's are more efficient than gas. Better battery technology is coming down in price and allow ...

10 amps times 12 volts gives you 120 watts of power.
30 amps times 4 volts gives you 120 watts of power.
How does the converter save you any power since the alternator has to put out the same amount ...

Seems to me that the DC/DC converter will introduce further inefficiencies into the mix, the converter will have losses.
The link even shows you lose 30% of the input power, how is that going to he ...

Compressed air is an inefficient use of electricity. Most of the "positive" arguments presented are even more positive for BEV's. The self discharge "issue" for batteries is a non issue. How many v ...

And on a different note, what is your personal opinion as to why the naysayers are so doggoned... pissy!
