There was someone at crannage a couple of years ago that was trying to do that with a string quartet. He was very enthusiastic (that’s probably another way of saying mad as a box of frogs). He seemed to not be aware that other forms of music existed.

Unless I am missing something, that circuit wont work without a choke. I think ed means use a different mosfet as the power device.

Cant you ask it for more detail on its fault codes? My BMW had a record of when the MOT was due and would nag if the date was passed. May just be that.

I guess the action of that depends on the values of R's and C's used.

Strange about the Tesla batteries.. that was the reason I was given for the 100% price hike.

AFAIK, Tesla have never leased batteries. And what 100% price hike?

although, to be honest I had always assumed pin1 of an XLR to be ground Pin 1 is connected to the shield of the cable, but the pin inside the equipment is connected to ground, chassis, signal ground or nothing varies. Also don't assume that ground is voltage wise between the hot and cold pin, consi...

why the batteries are now leased, same as all the other major car manufacturers. AFAIK, Tesla don't lease batteries. Next generation will drive with 4 motors one in each corner, which cuts out transmission losses and allows for regenerative breaking. And for interesting torque vectoring, looking to...

"Battery run out? We'll tow you to a charging point or your destination – whichever's nearer."

so I know, whatever happens, we can't run out of fuel. No, but lots of other things can go wrong, but as you are used to them you don't worry about them. I am not suggesting that EV's are perfect and wont improve, they will, just arguing the other side. The BMW has gone to the part heap in the sky ...

but if you factor in road closures/diversions, winter conditions with heater, lights,radio,heated seats etc etc I'd be scared (literally) Yep, I get that, but I don't know how long a EV will run the heating on its own, Would have thought it would be a long time assuming you keep the windows closed....

I think I'd like an electric car, and for 90% of my needs,

If you are anything like me now, how many miles can you drive between piss breaks?

The infrastructure is woefully inadequate in the UK, and as Nick says, for anyone who can't (for whatever reason) easily access a charging point at the vehicles overnight parking spot makes an EV a no go choice. I don't know how good or bad it is at the moment, I suspect though its better than you ...

I read recently of a new development, using a wonder material, which enabled hydrogen to be stored at a lower pressure, and (somehow) to store more in a tank of any given size. Petrol does just that perfectly well. But, also, the battery inventor who claims to have developed a battery that gives a ...
