I hate reading headlines that are just pure foolishness, like it "runs on salt water" or "Electric Car Generates 680,000 WATTS!!!"   The bloody car doesn't "generate" anything.  It just has a novel type of battery that provides power.

Are we so stupid these days that we can't distinguish between "provide" and "generate?"

Are we so stupid these days that we can't distinguish between salt water and what chemicals are dissolved in the salt water?

What a BS web site to twist the meaning of the truth like that.

Instead of doing the Googling, I just read the comments.

Here is the bloody answer courtesy of Carl Kemp:

<<< Why don't we try a little honesty here for a change, hmmm? First, it wasn't oil cartels that ruined Tesla. It was the combination of a disaster in his showcase lab, plus the constant undercutting of his work by his old boss, Thomas Edison and his company, General Electric. Next, the power is NOT provided by the salt water, but by chemical changes in the metals or metallic salts placed in the water. Long story short: whatever you use to create the current will change chemically, and it will take more energy to undo that change than you got out of it. So it does not run on sea water. It runs on the metals (which have to be refined) that you have to put into the sea water.This is not the free lunch they make it out to be.  >>>

FatBird - WAKE UP.

running a 920 HP motor ,I didn't read anything but the above posts here.


from my perspective ANYTHING that can feed a 920 hp ELECTRIC PONY needs a bit more attention ,especially if its cleared for use on public roads .


Thanks to the Portly Pigeon for this one....
