You heard about clouds?
Not to mention the length of day and the angle of the sun in winter.Quote:

Some of those solar arrays, like the windmills, are harmful to wildlife. But hey, that doesn't matter if you are going green, right?

Do solar panels work in cloudy weather?
Yes, solar panels do work on cloudy days — but not as effectively as they would on a sunny day. Expect them to produce 10-25% of their normal power output, depending on how thick the cloud cover is. But there’s an interesting twist: although they work better on sunny versus cloudy days, solar panels don't work best in particularly hot climates. In fact, solar panel output begins to fall if the temperature rises above 77 degrees Fahrenheit (25 degrees Celsius).
Because of this, solar panels work better in certain areas than others. For example, even though Las Vegas has sunnier and hotter days, solar panels tend to generate more power than in San Francisco. SF’s cooler weather keeps the device at an optimum temperature for energy output when the sun is shining.
You might also be surprised to know that solar systems are popular in many famously overcast places, such as in the city with the most cloudy days in America, Seattle. The second cloudiest city, Portland, Oregon actually ranks among the top cities for solar power in the US. Both cities benefit from long summer days with mild temperatures — ideal conditions for maximum solar production — which helps balance out lower production in the cloudy winter months.
In summary: on cloudy days solar panels do work; just less effectively. But solar panel performance also drops when it is too hot. That being said, solar panels can work and be worth it across a range of different climates.
When they staged this boat before the run, it was pulled and positioned by a pontoon. I heard that it was already on deceleration at the end of the course due to charge being drained so hard. I would love to see a 3 mile dash at the lake (turns separate the boat designs for sure).

What they should do is spoon out those battery's and install 2 of these fuel cells
These are heavy at 170 kilogram but small and robuust for off road use
Call Toyota for some carbon wrapped tanks and you probably have a 400 kilogram 200kw Package that can run all Day and fill up in 10 minutes
It is going to cost a arm and a leg but this was a proof of concept anyway
The best part the boat can be stored without fire hazard
I've got a novel idea .. :rolleyes:
Lets look the other way while politicians sell our country out to china as they smell and grope tender age children ... :mad:
Maybe we can find a savvy land baron whom is beholding to .. NO ONE , to make America Great Again .. :thumbsup:
Take the yoke off of the gas and oil company's necks .. let them do what they are good at . I could see .50c gasoline in our future.
Send AOC back to slinging beers, and smell testing cow flatulence .. Who's cookin burgers this weekend ..:smiletest:
Honestly .. what kind of idiot threatens you to buy an electric car .. in the middle of brown out season .. :rolleyes:
So the great white dope has to be towed to the staging area .. and fall's on it's face in less than 3/4's of a mile .... :o :o :o
Noli .. you picked out a color yet .... :eek:
:nonod: I didn't think so ... :icon_bs:

They require a minimum charge but should be stored to 80% charged

News is showing in the uk it has gone up 4 x for many
currently it is more expensive than filling your car with petrolQuote:

but if we want to isolate putin we are going to have these prices for the next years
so start building those hydrogen generators dammit :mad:
My bad, I was thinking you were saying storing batteries wouldn't be a fire hazard.
Just imagine all these boats on trickle charge!
Don't know if they remove the fuel when in long term storage
Im still waiting on Waynetech…Quote:
