This is the inside of a 123 kwhr or 150 kWh, 816 VDC battery. If I’m not mistaken, this is the start of non rebuildable battery packs? Looks like recycling will be tuff toon. In any case, it’s just a new trend from Tesla and perhaps all EV’s. It has lots of cool features, like drive by wire steering, but to me, it’s very ugly and not very practical for a work truck. They reportedly cost between $82k to $102k so definitely only for well healed buyers. Has anyone purchased one or drove one? https://youtu.be/ipe5A4ZN3Gc?si=7m97yOdOZGebacPJ 2005 2000lb 4 link dragster home brew 582 BBC Dart 355 1.058 2.98 4.629@149 6.094 7.310@185 | ||

I saw one yesterday and it was bad ugly... but I would drive one as long as I didnt have to pay for it J.R.

The unintended concequences are often what the activists miss regarding these new pushes. I suspect in a decade or so we are going to see problems logistically with batteries. China may have a wrap on the market. Recycling will be an environmental nightmare. Expence of ownership will be far higher than anticipated. I dunno. Looks like I am going to work for a peaker plant. So the extra pull on the grid will enable us to cut a fat hog. Foxtrot Juliet Bravo | |||

I’m starting to see lots of 3rd party automotive types taking this truck apart to discover how it’s built and work and sharing. Looks like batter removal is not crazy difficult. Just bolted in. https://youtu.be/khPMITqp91I?si=o2JJC3Ojmt9mwNvP 2005 2000lb 4 link dragster home brew 582 BBC Dart 355 1.058 2.98 4.629@149 6.094 7.310@185 | |||

same thing Polaris told us about their electric Ranger. "Battery is just bolted in". Yes, sure is, accessing those bolts (and the battery) requires almost a complete disassembly of the machine. And then requires specialized EV tooling for the HV side of things. Ain't cheap. | |||

We have done several batteries in Porsche Taycans, the tech does them in under 6 hours.This message has been edited. Last edited by: BD104X, Billy Duhs - BD104X@gmail.com | |||
