Current Electric Cars

That liquid energy stuff isn't Whisky is it????

OK, the big fella may be about to rant....

...when a concentrated liquid containing the nano-molecules is made, the amount

of energy it can store increases tenfold ...

uhm, what?
The amount of energy the liquid can store is increased tenfold when it is "made"???
Do they mean that the nano-particles can hold 10 times more energy once in the liquid?
or that the liquid itself can hold 10 times more energy once it has been nano-fied???
How much energy can they hold????
arrrggh!

OK, on a practical level... you top up your battery-tank with fresh new nano-particle energy liquid... What happens to the old energy liquid? (I only see one pipe on the filler hose.) Is it toxic? (Bet your a$$ it is!!)
How do they collect it? Can it be re-energised? Can it be safely disposed of?
How do they actually electrically charge up the liquid? (Plug it into the mains?? LOL)

I think I smell Bovine Excrement (at least in the reporting).

OK, I have a suggestion.
IF they are MAD enough to push ahead with this Electric car crap...

CHARGING STATIONS WONT WORK!
On a practical level, it takes far too long to re-charge current battery tech.

So, I propose that:

ALL ELECTRIC VEHICLE MANUFACTURERS are FORCED to adopt a SINGLE, UNIFORM, STANDARD BATTERY CELL DESIGN.

ALL VEHICLE BATTERIES to be made with THE SAME SIZE & SHAPE & CONNECTIONS etc.

Then, when your battery becomes low/flat you pull into a "filling station" (Gas station) and EXCHANGE your FLAT CELLS for FRESHLY CHARGED ONES. (Which are kept at the Garage / Gas Station / Petrol Station)

The stations would be responsible for charging the old cells and for replacing any that didn't hold an appropriate amount of charge.

Small City Cars might only need one or two battery cells,
Family cars maybe 4 - 6 cells?
Sports cars and delivery vans maybe 8 - 12 cells?
Larger trucks & commercial vehicles maybe 18 or 20???

BUT the point is.... ALL THE CELLS ARE THE SAME and can be exchanged in seconds (think Plug'n'Play).
It would work like how Calor Gas / Patio Gas / Propane Tanks are exchanged & re-filled.

NO NEW INFRASTRUCTURE required! Just add charging stations to existing petrol/gas/service stations.
Hell, we might even be able to go back to a time when an ATTENDANT actually CHANGES OUT our battery cells for us!!

Old cells which are beyond their useful shelf-life get sent off for recycling.
No long queues at garage forecourts or charging points.
No need for MILLIONS of new roadside charging points.
AND...
In theory, people could still re-charge their own cells at home/work if they wanted to!!

As the technology advances - they could introduce NEW IMPROVED BATTERY CELLS with better Power or Efficiency.
That's fine! They just colour them differently and charge slightly more for the "upgrades".
The system is adaptable, flexible and easy to upgrade/change.



World, You're welcome. (But DON'T DO IT!!! - Use HYDROGEN!!!!!)
