What is the end goal now? Are we building an EV that regularly gets driven (in which case extra batteries definitely wins) or a RV/van that stays parked for extended times?

^What Mike said^
"Only 180 pounds" is a lot of baggage. It's like an extra passenger. Per hour. Also consider that ice cubes stack up to about 1/3 water, 2/3 air. I dare you to go to a hotel and try to get 15 pounds of ice cubes into the 2 gallon bucket they give you. Who in their right mind would freeze up a solid block of ice and then wrangle it into a vehicle? Why not add 100 pounds of equipment and generate twice the weight per hour in cold? I'm done with this argument. Last edited by jeff5may; 07-31-20 at 04:09 PM.. |
