What in the world would reduce the number of unique connectors with 48 volts that is different about 12 volts? And how in the world would ethernet...
Are we talking about 48v batteries still or is this thread just a puff piece for the cybertruck now too?
This was just kind of a goofy puff piece, to be honest. Lot of stuff in here doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Car-wide network rings? Been...
I think generally they are because it's rare to burn to death in your car, whereas your house is full of flammable stuff. AFCIs first came about...
It would, but we are talking a few pounds per car at the most. It's not that it's a bad idea, it's that the infrastructure change to accomplish it...
Does 48v DC really need to be shielded from DC any more than 12v currently is? It's still DC just lower amps, seems like it would require less...
Copper wires are definitely not anywhere close to the most expensive materials in the car. Probably not even in the top ten. Compared with...
Have you worked around electricity very much before? I don't mean building a PC, I mean voltages that can hurt you.
That only applies to a couple of small motors on the car though - steering, HVAC, the battery fan, etc. Maybe the brake booster, I imagine that is...
You said "the benefits are extensive" but what are the benefits other than making power wires slightly smaller gauge? The article didn't have any...
AGM batteries typically last longer than normal lead acid batteries. Deep discharges are what wears out all lead acid batteries, and AGM versions...
I thought it was weird there was a vent valve at all on a front engine car. Typically you only see them when the engine is in the back and...
Take the time you need. It is much better to be a couple days late getting it running, than getting it running on time and then having to open it...
Mean Well HLG-240H-C1050A I haven't quite figured it out yet but yes, charging at a higher rate I will watch the temperature and voltage closely,...
I should mention it can only be turned down to 525mA with the built in potentiometer. In case you wanted to charge at a lower amperage.
Spark plugs are simple. Need a 10mm to remove the coils, and then a deep 14mm to remove the plugs. DON'T do what I did and try to use a normal...
You open the bleed valve up when you begin filling the coolant. You will hear air coming out of the valve until the coolant level reaches the...
1,050 mA at up to 241 volts. It has a built in potentiometer to dial it back too. But no display
I logged a couple of trips this afternoon and will plot out the CSVs later and report back. Tried to gun it a couple times and other times drive...
So by 59%, is it saying the watt-hour capacity of the battery is only 59% of what it was new? Or is it saying the battery still holds the rated...
