every week where you can learn what's really going on from electric vehicles to renewable energy from electric tunnels to humanoid robots from rockets to internet satellites to brain interfaces thank you for inviting us into your lives and joining this amazing community it's time to start the show let episode 420 begin but we don't we don't smoke we don't actually smoke you know that right okay hey i'm Zach and i'm just you're watching Tesla Time News episode 420 on now you know Neuralink received approval last week from the Food and Drug Administration or the FDA for what Neuralink is calling blindsight so this is FDA's breakthrough device designation approval which allows Neuralink to start human patient trials and Neuralink says join us in our quest to bring back sight to those who have lost it apply to our patient registry and openings on our career page at Neuralink.com wait so what is this well Elon explained the blindsight device from Neuralink will enable even those who have lost both eyes and their optic nerve to see provided the visual cortex is intact it will even enable those who have been blind from birth to see for the first time to set expectations correctly the vision will be at first low resolution like Atari graphics but eventually it has the potential to be better than natural vision and enable you to see in infrared ultraviolet or even radar wavelengths like Jordy LaForge much appreciated us FDA engage and then Neuralink's first patient noland our boss said this is huge so grateful to be part of such a humanity driven company yeah this is huge and i just really hate it when people say that you know Elon just is crazy billionaire well uh that's why we love him because he's working on things like this that are making humanity great because hypothetically he could help someone somewhere where there wasn't any internet and that person could not have any use of their legs and not be able to see and Neuralink could take care of the walking and moving their arms and seeing and then Starlink could enable them to have access to the internet yeah that's all from the companies started by one guy well i'll go even further you could have a humanoid robot pick them up put them into a robo taxi bring them to a starship that would bring them to mars uh that's true that's a good example Tesla's semi-program manager Dan Priestley showed off the Tesla semi truck with test drives at the iaa transportation summit in Hanover Germany last week Elon posted looks like we can get kilowatt hours per mile down around 1.2 with the median semi-load Priestley talked about how Tesla semis have driven more than 7.5 million kilometers they even have one semi that is less than a year and a half old that has driven 400 000 kilometers they have semis in the Tesla fleet and they drive them one for one with diesel trucks he said so no compromise in schedule and no compromise in payload so our merit says PepsiCo said today that they're drivers who operate the company's Tesla semi-trucks have reported that after driving the electric truck they don't want to go back to driving a diesel truck and Elon said compared to diesel Tesla semi-trucks have a lot more acceleration uphill power and computer controlled safety features like jack knifing protection so both more fun and safer to drive he didn't mention regen breaking you get regen breaking you don't have to use the jake break Alex says PepsiCo says it currently has 89 Tesla semis in its fleet so far Bill Gates said this would never happen and Elon said progress if any how the mainstream media doesn't tell you about this stuff about Tesla semis or Neuralink they just want to talk about crazy billionaire Elon talking his politics every week but you know it's you know it's because he doesn't come out and have a big showy event except that when he does have a big showy event they go well he had a big showy event with a jerk the Ford F-150 has been the undisputed best-selling vehicle in the United States for 46 consecutive years from now you said years i think you meant quarters uh no years from 1977 until today what yeah according to data from experience and wolfstreet.com new vehicle share of registrations by model from January 1st through the end of June of this year reveals that the F-150 may be losing its crown to the Toyota Rav4 and the Tesla model Y through Q2 the model Y has a 2.8 market share that's the highest ever up from 2.6 in Q1 but wait you must be talking about the EV version of the F-150 the lightning nope the model Y is outselling both the electric and ice versions of the F-150 what about the EV market share overall in the US in Q2 the market share of battery electric vehicles has grown to 9% up from 8.1% year over year this does not include hybrids and plug-in hybrids this is data for just pure electric cars wait so you're saying that almost one in 10 new vehicle purchases in the US are now electric i cannot wait for that to hit double digits by the way fun personal fact our family's first pickup truck back in the 1970s was a Ford F-150 there i am in the Red Sox hat so one of the arguments that you hear from like the average man on the street they say this about e-piece what are you doing you have to replace the battery pack that's going to be expensive so let's go to the data data a new study from the Canadian telematics company geotab shows that the vast majority of EV batteries will likely outlast the electric cars they're in in 2019 geotab published a similar report and at the time that data showed that the average EV pack was degrading at an average of 2.3% per year now using new data from fleet usage their latest report shows a dramatic improvement battery packs are degrading at a lower rate of only 1.8% per year doing the math that means that batteries on average would still have 80% of their health after 12 years geotab estimates that batteries could last 20 years or more at their current average degradation geotab says according to our data the simple answer is that the vast majority of batteries will outlast the usable life of the vehicle and will never need to be replaced if an average EV battery degrades at 1.8% per year it will still have over 80% state of health after 12 years generally beyond the usual life of a fleet vehicle another interesting tidbit from their study shows that EVs that are used heavily don't seem to have any more battery degradation than low use ones that's interesting so batteries don't really care if they're used it's just time yeah I wasn't really expecting that I would have thought the more you use it the more worn out it would be but I also noticed this little tidbit a geotab did notice that there was quote observable difference in battery health between cars that routinely charge on level two compared to those that charge on level one level one is obviously 120 volts and level two is 240 volts and usually at a higher amperage is right so this is interesting and it's something you can do even if you don't have 120 volts at home like if you're normally plugging into your 240 volt charger you can lower the amperate of charging in your car on some electric vehicles Tesla's you can most electric vehicles I should say because most electric vehicles are Tesla's so but yeah I think that that's that's an interesting point because we usually talk about like oh fast charging is bad but it's interesting to think that there's a difference between level one and level two yeah so I mean this taught me a couple things that I kind of already knew but just reinforced it which is yeah it doesn't really matter if your car sits a lot or you don't drive a lot and if you charge at the lowest possible rate that helps it's battery as well so I think that if you like pull in at home and you have a fairly high state of charging you know that you would be able to charge up overnight at a lower rate you might want to do that yeah that's kind of interesting I mean leaves a lot of room for you to accidentally leave it at charging at four amps and then you come back the next day and you're like oh I only got 10 miles oh no all right side of the cyber truck roundup yeah the cyber truck roundup Elon Musk reposted this from Tesla an apocalypse of cyber trucks performs epic synchronized light show in Las Vegas now we can't play the music unfortunately but if you're wondering what a group of cyber trucks is called it's an apocalypse I was driving around the other day and I saw another cyber truck and I was in my cyber truck is a pair of cyber trucks and apocalypse or does it have to be more than two more than three comment down below how many is it before you get an apocalypse what's what's less than an apocalypse a cataclysm is that what three is and it's just a crisis when there's two next to each other so remember back in August reported on Chechen leader Ramzan Kaderov who posted that Elon gave him a cyber truck yeah Elon denied that he gave it to him and then he said that he can't believe that anyone would believe that right because Elon didn't give him a cyber truck well now Kaderov is probably wishing he didn't post that because Elon has disabled his cyber truck Politico is reporting that Kaderov now says quote Elon Musk behave badly he gives expensive gifts from the bottom of his heart and then remotely disconnects them that's not manly how could you do that Elon and it appears that Kaderov got his hands on a couple more cyber trucks maybe Elon will shut those off as well yeah pretty easy to locate I just wonder if Tesla can send an over there update without the owner's consent I bet they can and they will so what do you guys think do you think that Elon will shut these two cyber trucks down as well yeah let us know in the comments I mean I think in general they're not going to send an over the air update to your car unless you allow it but I feel like when Tesla wants to do it there's probably a secret little button in the code that they can enact well uh yeah so you have a guy not very good guy um who I love the double speak he gets to do and is he gives me an expensive gift from the bottom of his heart which he denied giving me and then he disables it which would go along with him not actually giving it to you wow Russian propaganda man that's a that's a trip rapper debavy just released his new album with cyber truck on the cover he has 35 million monthly listeners and his most viewed video on YouTube has over a half billion views also rapper meek mill just released his new song over the weekend called cyber truck and Elon posted the double fire much I listened to the song by the way does he talk about cyber truck he does mention it yes in the middle of the song okay but it's not like it didn't seem like it was about cyber truck but I don't know riding around town in my cyber truck Tesla experience mexico posted the deliveries of the cyber truck in mexico are approaching images taken in Guadalajara mexico on Tuesday September 10th now this is unconfirmed but it could be true which would be awesome and set out a was the Tesla's cyber truck vehicle program manager responded to Sawyer merit when he posted he said news cyber truck deliveries in Canada likely to start in late October and sit on said late october likely so that kind of confirms it so we don't know exactly if that's true about mexico but it does sound like Canada for sure so that's exciting all of north america could have cyber truck soon well not all of north america there's more countries in north america than just Canada and mexico is Zach what am I missing Guatemala Panama I thought those are in central america whatever and it appears the Tesla's building a cyber bear statue at their Palo Alto California facility this is a rendering from the Palo Alto department of planning and development according to the filing Tesla's proposing installing a new sculpture at 3000 Hanover along the page mill and Hanover intersection the proposed sculpture design was developed in house and is a product of multi-disciplinary collaboration with in tesla the concept is a stylized low-poly california grizzly bear meant to combine tesla's design language with california's grizzly bear and highlight the common message of strength and unyielding resistance and we should mention this has not been approved yet want to go to that planning board meeting and give them your input but look it's gonna have led lighting and uh wow gonna look pretty cool it's so you have the the bull statue on wall street and then you have the bear statue over in california yeah is that a dig at california the bear i don't know i mean it's their i mean it is their state uh creature which state has the owl because then we could do the cyber owl for them oh let us know in the comments i'm sure you guys know i'm sure there's plenty of states where the state bird is the owl but i wonder if there's like a state that is like especially owl like it's always fun to learn like what a state sandwiches and stuff yeah hey and if you want to learn this and more head on over to the cyber truck owners club they help sponsor our show thank you so much guys and there's so much cool information about cyber truck there along with their reservation tracker so you can find out when you're getting your cyber truck all right so what is the main problem with a bicycle bicycle uh it's got two wheels and that means that it's inherently unstable yeah and as you get older the last thing you want to worry about is falling over right and that is why we're excited to review the moon cool tk1 e-trite on now let's review this week try meaning three wheels which means that it's way more stable than a two-wheeled e-bike now to be honest i got excited about e-trikes a couple years ago as a potential solution for friends and family of ours that wanted to go biking but either didn't have the muscles or the reflexes to ride an e-bike reliably and safely because one accident can put you in the hospital but the first e-trike we reviewed wasn't very stable which was surprising because i thought how could it not be stable but it turns out with physics the devil is in the details if the center of gravity is too high or the motor is in the wrong place or if you don't have a differential you can still tip a trike but the moon cool tk1 addressed all these design issues and we think they got it right so what makes the moon cool so stable is first off it's low center of gravity they achieved this by using 20 inch wheels instead of the typical 24 or 26 inch wheels they're perfect because they're three inch fat tires for awesome grip but not that four inch fat tire which kind of looks scary when it's on the road and the lowered seating position and step through frame makes it much easier to get in and out of which i really appreciate then moon cool moved the motor to between the crank and the wheels and added a differential which is way better than the typical e-trike with a motor on the front wheel those e-trikes can pull you into a tip and that is not what you want yeah so many of these lower-end e-trikes they seem to just slap on a third wheel onto the e-bike that they make and then they call it a day with moon cools differential if either one of the rear wheels loses contact with the ground which would happen if you're starting to flip then the power transfers only to the wheel that's in the air which prevents you from powering into the tip so many other cool features on the moon cool so go check them out on our full review of the moon cool tk1 e-trike and this could be the answer that you've been looking for if you've been looking for some kind of stable e-bike to go for rides with your family i think this is it and thank you to moon cool for sponsoring today's show so illon must tweeted shang-hy just experienced the most powerful typhoon in 75 years best wishes for the resilient and resourceful people of shang-hy i have asked our tessel shang-hy team to help anyone in distress to the best of our ability and shang-hy was brought to a standstill for four days last week when typhoon babinka hit on september 16th with peak winds of 80 miles an hour which is equivalent to like a category one atlantic hurricane 400 000 people were evacuated from the shang-hy metro district hundreds of flights were canceled and shang-hy's 25 million residents were advised to stay at home and so we're probably gonna see a little blip in tessel shang-hy numbers in next month's data just because they probably were not able to get to work for a few days all illons fault and demand is lower now the department of energy is so far awarded 14 grants totaling 1.82 billion dollars to companies to build out manufacturing projects in the u.s. companies like albomara is getting 67 million for a project in north carolina to produce anode materials for lithium-ion batteries honey will got 126 million to build a factory in louisiana that makes electrolyte salts for lithium-ion batteries dow is getting a hundred million dollars to produce battery-grade carbonate solvents for its electrolytes used in yagestet lithium-ion batteries and clarios circular solutions in partnership with korea's sk on and cosmo chemical will get 150 million for a project in south carolina now the department of energy just announced they are increasing the program to three billion for 25 projects and they claim it will generate 16 billion dollars in total investment and create 12 000 production and construction jobs energy secretary jennifer grand home said these investments are going to help battery manufacturers meet the growing demand for u.s. made electric vehicles and to help our grid store the record new amounts of wind and solar that are coming online and i don't know i'm not sure how to feel about this we did a patreon poll this week so we'll see our patrons feel i just feel like these companies that they mentioned uh dow honey well i don't recall them being big battery manufacturing companies it feels like a money grab to me right nor do they really ring as like small startup companies that need help right uh starting their companies so yeah it's kind of like hey i'm a big fat cat down at dow chemical and i i know how we're gonna get a hundred million dollars get the great department working on that i'm friends with jenny grand home well then we make the goes into battery i know electrolytes that crap that we have when we're producing all of our other chemicals you mean they want that crap i don't know that's just what it feels like to me but um i mean i know i should be happy because it it's sounds like good news you know when they say 12 000 production and construction jobs construction jobs are great but they are temporary so it's kind of i don't know incorrect to lump together production which is going to be like the people that work there for the next 25 years and construction jobs which are there for two years they're going to be there for two maybe three maybe four years as they're building the buildings yeah i don't know yeah we'll see how the patrons feel about it later all right it's time for some space x news let's go to our buddy eli welcome back to the star man report id eli burn your hosts and let's dive in our first story this week lit up the skies off the floor to coast as the crude dragon resilience carrying the astronauts of the Polaris dawn mission made a spectacular splashdown returning in the early morning of sunday september 15th this mission not only reached the highest altitude by a crude spacecraft since 1972 but also marked the first commercial spacewalk in history after landing the recovery ship shannon was right there in the gulf to greet them ensuring a safe return the Polaris dawn mission wasn't all just about floating in space the crew also completed 40 different science experiments while up in orbit these experiments range from studying space adaption syndrome to streaming a violin performance via star link yes you heard that right commercial astronaut gillis treated the cosmos to raise theme from star wars the force awakens and isek vin's glimpse outside the spacewalk summed it up perfectly back at home we all have a lot of work to do but from here work sure looks like a perfect world and indeed for a moment it must have been next up we're turning our eyes to the moon or more precisely the far side of the moon chinese ching-e six mission has brought back fascinating insights from this uncharted territory the samples reveal a richer variety of materials like feldspar and glass possibly flung from distant impacts on the moon's surface notably these samples have less creep and no i don't mean creepy i mean k-r-e-e-p this is a lunar rock type enriched with potassium rare earth elements and phosphorus these discoveries are important because they shed light on the moon's volcanic activity and its historic evolution both of which offer a deeper insight into the solar system's impact history and speaking of moon mysteries the NASA Artemis program is not just about putting astronauts back on the moon for the first time since Apollo it is also about innovating how we explore the lunar navigation challenge is now ongoing and open for your brilliant ideas on how to help Artemis astronauts traverse the lunar south poles tricky terrain the challenge asks that you imagine and create the design for a device that works in extreme conditions without power of electronics helping astronauts navigate steep cliffs and boulders in the permanently shadowed regions like the shackleton crater this is your chance to contribute directly to the next era of lunar exploration and you can find the full details at freelancer.com well guys that's all for this time thank you so much for watching this week's episode of the star man report and i look forward to having you back for more of the most exciting news in space thanks Eli and you know what next week Eli is going to be reporting from florida nice that's gonna be awesome but there's more space x news let's go to starlink in poland alex says starlink systems are being deployed by the polish government to restore critical connectivity for emergency services as southern poland faces devastating floods okay so those first two pictures wow i mean the water went up but where's that third picture from it's the same place oh it just it's showing over time all the water came and just covered everything oh god yeah so we don't have exact numbers for the number of starlink users in poland but the worldwide growth is astounding okay so get this december 2022 there was one million users worldwide and by may of 24 there are three million users it's even higher now wow elan says starlink in nairobi this is nairobi city hall now with starlink the ceo of air ball tech posted we are on track to deliver high speed internet for free together with starlink as the first airline in europe soon stay tuned and elan said cool cool elan then posted starlink available in yemen well then i guess i'm going to yemen i'm going to yemen regent seven seas cruises which i didn't know this but it's the world's leading ultra luxury cruise line has installed starlink on all six of its ships offering its gas high speed unlimited Wi-Fi elan says you can play real-time video games on starlink whereas that is impossible with geostationary satellites that are roughly 50 times farther away speed of light is the law for now it is um i don't know who's going on a cruise and it's gonna be like i'm gonna be in my cabin playing video games i don't want to look outside Alex posted starlink's doppler only positioning can provide accurate positioning navigation and timing information and serve as viable alternative to the gps system researchers at virginia polytech institute not only showed that on average at least five satellites are in view from virtually anywhere on earth but also that the spatial diversity achieved with four satellites is compared to what can be achieved with eight so so what so starlink is is gps now uh can be used that way i guess in that cool whoa yeah that's kind of just a little news tidbit just whatever wow so the faa announced last week that they're proposing six hundred and thirty three thousand dollars in civil penalties against space x for allegedly failing to follow its license requirements during two launches in 2023 what were the license requirements that space x failed to follow so in may of 23 space x submitted a request to revise its communications plan at the cape chronabral space force station including adding a new launch control room at hanger x and removing the t minus two hour readiness poll from its procedures then a month later on june 18th space x used the unapproved launch control room and did not conduct the required t minus two poll so the faa is proposing a hundred and seventy five thousand dollar civil penalty for each alleged violation then in july of 23 space x submitted a request to revise its explosive site plan at the kennedy space center which included a newly constructed rocket propellant farm later that month space x used the unapproved rocket propellant farm for the echo star 24 jupiter mission the faa is proposing a two hundred eighty three thousand and nine dollar civil penalty for that okay so six hundred and thirty three thousand and nine dollars in several fines proposed by the faa um what's the next step the faa says that space x has 30 days to respond so space x has 30 days to respond but the faa didn't have to respond before when space x proposed something and then they got to take all the time in the world to not approve it right i mean like i'm a building contractor right in a previous life and when you when you apply for a permit you have a certain number of days that the town has to give you that permit they can't just hold on forever and then you just basically start work if they haven't issued the permit interesting because i mean most towns do it that way because they don't want to stop you and it gives the town the incentive to get the job done right because otherwise you could just be like oh that guy's on vacation so nothing gets built right so i guess they were just like oh put that on Larry's desk he's on vacation and uh we won't have to fulfill it and then that will prevent space x from launching great so did space x respond yelan did he said more law fair space x will be filing suit against the faa for regulatory overreach he went on saying nasa puts their faith in space x for all astronaut transport to and from the space station but somehow faa leadership thinks they know better i'm highly confident that discovery will show improper politically motivated behavior by the faa amazingly no starliner fines for bowing the faa space division is harassing space x about nonsense that doesn't affect safety while giving a free pass to bowing even after nasa concluded that the spacecraft was not safe enough to bring back the astronauts marcus house says reading the details it's pretty clear that space x wishes to upgrade and move faster than the faa can improve it causes constant tension this fine is almost a rounding error but that isn't the point what do you think and what's the solution yelan said the fundamental problem is that humanity will forever be confined to earth unless there is radical reform at the faa so when you're like why does yelan take this stuff so seriously it's because he's not just running a company he at least he believes and i also believe him that he is uh saving humanity from global extinction space x has responded by the way in a four-page letter and i'm not going to read it all but space x claims that they quote provided the office of commercial space transportation with sufficient notice of these relatively minor license updates which had no bearing on public safety and if you read space x's letter which i urge you to do you get the real sense that the faa was just looking for things to complain about this wasn't anything that affected safety nothing went wrong no one got hurt this was just like hmm i can be found that we'll get space x in trouble why is yoda yoda something works with faa i don't get you i can get back to the boys not fly you will grounded you are paper work holds you up and will eric burger posted just want to point out that it's wild the european union just launched some of its most valuable satellites to galayo spacecraft on a falcon nine rocket making its 20 second flight unimaginable even two or three years ago yelan said if the rest of the year goes well space x will deliver roughly 90 percent of all earth's payload to orbit china will do six percent the rest of the world combined will do roughly four percent and i just want to point out that part about the rocket being its 20 second flight this is the reusability part that rocket has been in orbit 22 times the first stage has flown 22 times space x then posted the falcon nine launches our 90th mission of the year and then yelan said flight five is built and ready to fly he's talking about starship here flight six will be ready to fly before flight five even gets approved by the faa and then space x posted the six engine static fire of flight six starship so i guess instead of saying hey guys come on it's not that complicated it's not rocket science we should say hey guys it's not that complicated it's not filing bureaucracy with the faa and then space x posted liftoff not long before the starlink direct-to-cell communication constellation is active so there are now more than 200 direct-to-cell starlink satellites in low earth orbit there should be 300 very very soon and if you're wondering how the newer starlink antennas work since they don't turn to follow the satellites anymore um those on the left are the old dishy mcflat faces the round ones that move on the on the right those are the thin new ones and so yelan explains we now have enough satellites that exact orientation is less important as the probability that a satellite is directly overhead is very high that's cool you get to make the things on the ground less complicated because you launch so many satellites and in the more law fair against elan news the securities and exchange commission announced last friday that they are seeking sanctions against elan musk after he failed to appear for testimony and their probe of his acquisition of twitter elan responded saying this was our highest risk astronaut mission ever and i have responsibility for their safety the weather constraints on this mission are also extremely high and only cleared that night i had to make a go versus no go decision their lives came first so the sec has issued a subpoena for elan to testify again into questions about elan's tweets before during and after the twitter acquisition process because the sec is contending that elan misled investors about his involvement with twitter elan's attorneys are arguing that the subpoenas are not valid the sec is also examining whether elan complied with securities laws regarding the disclosure of his twitter stock purchases so elan then posted while actual crimes go unpunished and here's how elan explains the sec in sixty seconds not once that the sec go after any of the hedge funds uh who were non-stop shorting and distorting tesla not once they would lie flat the hedge funds would lie flat out on tv for their own gain at the expense of retail investors not once literally a thousand times not once did the sec pursue them how do you explain this failure and the incentive structure is is messed up because the the lawyers the sec are not paid well they it's a fairly low paying job but they're what they're looking for is a trophy from from the sec that they're looking for something they put on basically they're linked in yeah um from that they can get a job at a high paying wolf them it's exactly what the lawyer here did and there and the reason they don't attack the hedge funds is because those hedge funds employ those low funds and they know if they attack the hedge funds they're affecting their pure their future career prospects so they sell small investors down the river for their own career that's what actually happens regulatory capture regulatory capture yeah not good christberg and posted i like this shot full screen the facilities have grown exponentially but they still have relatively small footprints when you look at this view kind of makes a mockery of the spacex has decimated the area headlines elan said yeah it's absurd and spacex posted that flight five starship moved to the pad at starbase and elan said starships were meant to fly which is a uh katy perry lady gaga song i don't know starships were meant to fly please don't copyright this episode spacex posted starbase tower lifts the super heavy booster for flight five to expected catch height elan said starships super heavy booster held at catch height so just in case you're wondering the first stage of the super heavy rocket that is going to take the starship into orbit is going to come back and not land but be caught by mecha zilla which is the giant tower our gv aerial photography said ship 30 and booster 12 full stack fly over and elan said let's go and elan said starship super heavy booster flight four so this is the one that landed in the ocean looks like the ruins of a futuristic long dead civilization elan said starships will get much bigger in the future oh man and speaking of spacex if you want to read one of the best accounts of how spacex got to where it is today i cannot recommend enough reentry by eric burger we just interviewed eric burger on in-depth and had a really fun discussion about how he researched the book and how some of the stories from his book happened yeah reentry is a wonderful read and it is now available it's right it's out which is as of today which is so go get it today i i'm serious it's also a great gift um so he wrote liftoff which is the beginnings of spacex and now reentry brings us from that point when they almost didn't make it to basically a year ago and there's some just amazing stories in there he got access to so many people at spacex um and just there's stuff you wouldn't have found out about i don't think any other way i would say that this is a great gift for anyone who's interested in space at all they do not have to be spacex fans you don't have to be an engineer yeah it's it's a great read i highly

drive of the whole cyber sexy lineup but also experience full self-driving this is so smart because for the longest time i've talked with people who are like how would you actually experience the vehicle well now having it spelled out on the website where you can actually schedule a time that's convenient for you is huge because i think a lot of people don't want to go down to a store and wait in line and like oh the guy you need isn't here today or the car isn't ready you want to know that when you get there your time is valuable that the car will be ready and the cyber truck can now be test driven which is going to be super powerful for keeping demand up because let's face it you don't understand a tesla until you experience it for yourself if you have not experienced a tesla by the way you're watching the show and you're like i'd like to then go do it you know even if you're on board with tesla but you've never driven one even if you've uh i don't know if you're really young and you can't drive a car this you can get your parents to do it for you um or have fsd do it for you well i do wonder if the uh will the employees drive you around not you probably think so i probably can't book it if you're too young to buy a car i'm sure but i don't know it this would be good for like a birthday party oh yeah i know it's an event don't you think i don't know just an idea and one of the things that many truck drivers have asked about uh with the tesla semi truck is the fact that we haven't seen a sleeper cab yeah when you're doing long range trucking the driver needs a place to sleep but the semi so far doesn't seem to have that feature but as we look to the future tesla semi which was shown off in europe last week as we talked about at the iaa transportation conference they revealed that they've been planning for this so as we can see here from the eevee universe on x i learned a few new things checking out the very first tesla semi in europe today so what are we looking at john reports that tesla engineers told him that they're already designing the tesla semi with the sleeper cab in mind and that they're keeping the space for it within the metal frame as you can see here okay that's interesting yeah i mean because basically so far we've only kind of thought of as a short range truck like a you know daily truck but you need a cab if you're going to do long range travel and now they're revealing that basically they had that in mind the whole time they just haven't played it out and it makes sense i mean they wanted to get it tested first and make sure it all worked why put all the money into the expensive cab part if you're not going to actually be selling those yet hey if you're a trucker who watches this show i know that there are at least a few of you um post in the comments below what kind of features you think that they could offer in the tesla semi that might be a better like an upgrade to what you currently have in your trucks either i mean what i've heard from truckers is normally you if it's cold out for instance you have to keep the truck running if you want to have heat or electricity if you want to watch a movie or do all those kind of things whereas here i mean yes the truck is on technically but it wouldn't be running and the boring company has shown a cameo of their latest tunnel boring machine proof rock five the boring company posted proof rock four lighting test inside boring factory with a subtle cameo by proof rock five all right so proof rock four started testing in august at the boring company's basterock texas factory we have not really seen it before this is one of the first time so proof rock four is 308 feet long as you're seeing here weighs 797 000 pounds and produces up to 4.7 million pounds of thrust so let me get this straight proof rock three is what we've been seeing tunneling lately in las vegas correct okay so to give you some context here proof rock two we've seen a lot of they've done a lot of tunneling in las vegas and other places that tunnels at one mile a week okay proof rock three which we just talked about in las vegas it goes faster than one mile a week it's aspirational goal which they haven't achieved yet is seven miles a day and we don't yet know about proof rock four or proof rock five and their goals so we'll have to wait and see yeah it is exciting it's i think it's hard for people because it's not like you're gonna get the opportunity to drive this this is sort of like um you know i want to drive the zamboni you're not really gonna normally get an opportunity to drive it and even if you did no one's gonna see you doing it because you're underground i mean maybe it'll be driven like above ground at some point like maybe you'll just have a joystick and it's gotta be in pieces you know i think i think that this is like it's a very specialized piece of equipment so it's it's harder for people to get excited about because you don't see it shooting up into space it's gonna be tunneling relatively slowly underground but i think when it's going at seven miles a day i think it's actually gonna get exciting because then projects won't be so glacial i mean what makes it a construction projects bad for most people is that they don't really see it happening fast um you know and that's why it's so exciting when you see like a time lapse of a building going up or something when you see seven miles being tunneled in a day and it's like wait where's it now it's it's over there here's the problem now you don't see it you just look at the ground do you go yeah it just looks like the ground this is what i saw yesterday what i mean is those tunnels are going to open faster and faster and it's gonna go exciting and they'll get cheaper yes yeah all right time for going green so according to the data from singapore's land transport authority the tesla model three was singapore's best-selling sedan in august and that includes ice sedans as well it does here's the data you can see that tesla sold 186 model threes in singapore in august which actually outsold the model y at 122 units sold in august now i know that singapore isn't a huge car market they have only had 972 sedans sold in august but that would mean that one in five sedans sold there in august were tesla model threes yes and a tesla's account for 7.8 percent of the car market in singapore in august and i mean they just entered the market and now they're basically taking over you may remember that we interviewed the co-founder and ceo of climatize will wiseman earlier this

sponsoring our show all right time for sunspots so if you live in maryland listen up i'm listening maryland solar canopy and dual use technology grant program is now accepting applications for 2024 okay so what will this do they give grants up to four hundred thousand dollars to install solar canopies over parking lots and parking garages oh okay so like for schools yes but even more than that they will grant up to five hundred fifty thousand dollars for projects that provide power to microgrids that support more than one critical community business like what like a grocery store or hardware store or pharmacy so if you're a business a public university a nonprofit a local or state government in maryland apply there is 4.8 million dollars available in the fund the application period ends october 23rd and i'm really talking here i think to schools i think a lot of you at schools would love to do solar canopies over your parking lot but you're like i don't know how to begin and i don't have any money uh maryland will pretty much pay for it wow so yeah contact them also contact any solar nonprofits in your state because i'm sure they know about it and they can help you that's awesome yeah really exciting i love the microgrid part that's really smart it really smart and i'd like to talk for a minute about warehouse roofs and incentives warehouse roofs and incentives i think i know where you're going with this yeah i mean we're in the sunspot segment of the show right now so it's pretty obvious right warehouse roofs they generally look like this yeah big empty flatish surfaces and there's a lot of them i mean if we look at the uk for instance a place where sun doesn't immediately jump to mind did you know that as of last year there are approximately 423 000 warehouses in the uk that is up 35 since 2018 we're talking 690 million square feet or 64 million square meters of warehouse roofs yeah big numbers okay how about if i put that in terms of football fields for some of our audience that's almost 12 000 football fields american football fields right or for the rest of the world that's over 10 000 soccer fields or football fields for you non-americans so 10 000 soccer pitches football pitches let me just put this in a different term for you picture that's over half the city of boston in warehouse roofs boston america boston america european so warehouses account for one third of uk commercial roof space and yet currently only 5% of them have solar panels installed on them why is that why do so few of these places that would be easy to install solar panels have solar panels well that gets to the incentive part i believe it's because of incentives or lack of incentives you see who owns the warehouses private companies for the most part right and who provides the electricity power utilities like national grid and that leads to the next set of facts if these warehouses in the uk installed solar panels on their roof they could contribute half of the uk's electricity needs this would not only reduce air pollution emissions by two million tons of co2 per year this would also deliver annual savings on electricity costs for the average person in the uk of up to four billion dollars cash money if you don't mind okay so let's start doing that why why haven't they done that yet incentivize it it goes back to incentives right national grid and the other big six power utilities in the uk they would lose four billion dollars a year so they have no incentive to work with companies that own warehouses to install solar panels and batteries and the companies that own the warehouses they're busy doing whatever warehouses do right they're moving stuff around making stuff selling stuff they aren't in the solar power business and ever since there have been warehouses there have been empty warehouse roofs they don't think there's any incentive to install solar on them each warehouse owner would need to be convinced that it's in their best interest to take on a project like this right what if the solar panels blow off my roof what of its cloudy for two weeks what if this what if that exactly business owners are risk a verse and most of them don't even know that this is a viable option let alone that they could profit from it after just a few years but then why doesn't the government step in and incentivize it because who controls most governments the solar lobby uh no a big oil spends hundreds of millions of dollars on lobby wait what does this say a hundred and thirty three million dollars last year and sixty four percent of oil lobbyists are former government employees yeah why do you think big oil has to spend all that money on lobbyists to slow down the transition of renewable energy exactly every year the big oil can keep you burning their products is another year of profits for them when we finally embrace solar wind and batteries we will no longer need them because again the sun doesn't charge for coming up every day hey and if you'd like to get solar on your roof but you like the warehouse industry don't know much about it talk to our friends at energy pal because they know everything about it and they'll help you go solar for less let him know that can Jesse sent you the link is down below all right we're back from patreon bonus stories this time for the poll so what are your thoughts on the latest department of energy grants overwhelming most people are in favor of it 16 don't care and only 9% of people are not in favor of it i mean i got it i mean they're going to spend you know the government spent a lot of money on all sorts of stuff so i guess it is better to spend it on what's three billion dollars who cares who cares i mean it's for stuff that we actually want okay all right time for elan's x's of the week so elan reposted this from bill acman and this is to bob eiger who's the co of disney which owns abc and he said dear bob i assume that you've been made aware of this afadevid which was made public earlier today in which a whistleblower states that abc worked closely with the kamala harris campaign in sharing the substance of the questions during the debate alix posted news canada's minister of industry france while philip champagne which is the french's name i've ever heard is calling an offer from elan musk to provide canadians with cheap internet access nonsense after elan musk said that he could get the job done with starlink at less than half the cost of the federal government's plan and elan said i'm willing to say firmed fixed price but i think the reality is that they just want their own system france suave elip champagne if i came up with that and made a french canadian character people would say that i was being insensitive you're being sterile typical elan said gigatexis tesla headquarters he's now got the three flags flying former editor of the new york times berry wise posted if the american political scene is divided between the liberal establishment the domain of dick and liz chaney and kamala harris and the renegade rebel alliance which includes donald trump rfk junior system machine etc they are the empire not the rebel alliance and barry says yes the reporting in this piece makes exactly that case speaker mike johnson says congress has an immediate obligation to do two things responsibly fund the federal government and ensure the security of our elections because we owe this to our constituents we will move forward on wednesday with a vote on the six-month cr with the save act attached elan said the fate of america may depend on this vote congressman thomas massy said mike leis sincere but it's a total bait and switch on the part of the republican uni party leadership in the house mike johnson already has a plan to cave leaving us with the bill that doesn't cut one penny of spending i explained it here elan says i hope you were wrong andres stropa says loyal friends are hidden gems and elan said hundred percent asan says remember the world saw zero wars during trump's era and elan said exactly jason debolt says raptor four will be just an hourglass shape with two inverted cones a combustion chamber and a thrust nozzle elan says there is definitely a lot of room for improvement of raptor three but now the fundamental architecture is right elan then said forgiveness is essential to end an infinite cycle of retribution there's great wisdom in turning the other cheek although it must be combined with the strength through enforce and end to retribution mario neffal says bernie wants to make ozempik cheap for everyone and elan says isn't there a generic version that cost much less solving obesity greatly reduces risks of other diseases especially diabetes and improves quality of life we do need to find a way to make appetite inhibitors available to anyone who wants them i don't agree with bernie about many things but i do on this and chamois polyapetea says me too the active ingredient is available and can be manufactured into semi-glutide cheaply in the u.s but you need both federal and state licenses i'm an investor in a california firm that has gotten the federal license but we're still waiting for the california license has taken almost a year shroga moji mario says nasa tracks stadium size asteroid flying relatively close to earth elan says one of these days a large comet will hit earth and destroy almost all life as has happened many times in the past eventually the sun will expand enough to boil the oceans and destroy all life either become a spacefaring civilization or die those are the two choices and he said you're not going to believe this but gavin new some just announced that he signed a law to make parody illegal based on this video elan says the post says parody in all caps so is he going to throw saturday night live in jail or what and this is of course because of the comel harris campaign add parody and elan said the governor of california just made this parody video illegal in violation of the constitution of the united states would be a shame if it went viral in miles chong said oh no he's going to put you in meme prison elan said at least my cell mates in meme prison will have a sense of humor they are actually trying to make posting memes illegal vote them out doge designer says breaking the video that offended california governor gavin new some is now trending on x fate loves irony elan said like the times dry sand sued someone for revealing her super obvious address and malibu that really kept a lid on it lmao cathy wood says unconstitutional elan said very much so but that didn't stop them elan posted this poem atheism left an empty space secular religion took its place but left the people in despair childless hedonism sons care maybe religion is not so bad to keep you from being sad amuse said censorship theory breton the eus anti-free speech enforcer has resigned in disgrace after his outrageous threats against elan musk's ex backfired spectacularly breton who pushed for censorship of figures like trump has now faced the consequent of his own heavy-handed move and elan says bon voyage and theory says merci any tickets left for mars i have a few ideas to regulate over there and elan said in all seriousness spacex hopes to offer travel to mars to anyone who wants to go bearing in mind that it will be like a long c voyage in centuries past dangerous and uncomfortable but great adventure becoming multi-planetary ensures the long-term survival of life home arse catalog says saying that trump needs to be elected or it's the end of the world just elicits eye rolls similarly democrats saying kamala needs to be elected or it's the end of the world also sounds silly not popular but i don't think the world will end either way elan said my prediction is that if kamala wins the democrats will import in legalize enough migrants to ensure a permanent one-party rule that is increasingly socialist to a confiscatory level and repressive everywhere will be california but worse the one thing that gives california pause is that people can move to other states what would happen if all states were ruled like california nowhere to move kamala wins posted breaking new reporting shows that not one fortune 100 ceo supports donald trump or jd vance noa smith says while i don't think corporate ceos are necessarily the people we should listen to when deciding who to vote for i do think it's noteworthy that corporate america thinks donald trump would be bad for business for one i endorse trump and they know it all too well so that statement from kamala wins is deliberately misleading second very few corporate ceos ever endorse a presidential candidate so any implication that the rest of the fortune 100 supports kamala is false overwhelmingly the corporate ceos tell me privately that they support trump not kamala from wikipedia which is very left-leaning here is a partial list of those who have publicly endorsed trump steve shortzman is a de facto top five ceo given that he controls one trillion dollars in assets and he and myles shong says wow 158 democrats voted against deporting migrant rapists and pedophiles all republicans voted in favor of this common sense measure elan said crazy creepy that they would vote against us natalie says as a person living in ohio i can confirm a massive increase in migrants elan said i'm hearing the same thing from people in arizona and wisconsin it's massive he went on to say the dem administrative state is flying millions of future voters directly into swing states they're being sent to cities and towns throughout ohio pennsylvania wisconsin in arizona given that there is a sure path to permanent one party rule it is a very smart strategy it guarantees permanent one-party democrat rule for the whole country just like the 1986 amnesty did in california there will be no more swing states a diabolical bibrilliant strategy before 1986 california was a swing state but after granting amnesty to three million illegals it immediately became super majority democrat and has been so ever since just in election officials in lezern county pennsylvania have banned all mail-in ballot drop boxes from the county over concerns that they facilitate voter fraud elan says they make fraud and possible to prove steven king says elan musk's increasingly loopy not to mention fictional posts have nothing to do with politics it's an attempt to gin up interest in x it's all about business and elan said you said x and he was very happy as a joke so does the coin says breaking people can liken dislike different things and still be friends and elan agreed elan posted just had an excellent conversation with the president of el salvador president nayib buquila we talked a lot about the nature of reality future of humanity and how technology like ai and robotics will affect the world el salvador has an amazing leader and nayib responded he said it was a pleasure to spend several hours talking with one of the great minds of our time elan musk and elan said we should livestream our next conversation i think people would enjoy hearing it elan said grok three is training with 10x soon 20x the compute of grok two and i just want to point out that it just popped onto the leaderboard it is now number three out of nowhere wow now it's next set of a dozen tweets is elan getting into a thing with vanade coleslaw who is a another billionaire so elan was talking about this conversation vavek had had with at a town hall where a woman said that her daughter was harassed by some of the machete and he said how would you feel if someone tried to hurt your daughter with machete vanade says what percentage of the population has had this happen versus percentage dealing with hate bomb threats and bullying by the fictitious Haitian stories and other hate fiction that trump is knowingly lying about and spreading to divide the nation elan said how many unvetted migrants would you like sent to your neighborhood and woodside last time i was there seemed like none you're a hypocrite no problem that some other town has a massive influx so long as it isn't yours vanade says i am totally against illegal immigration and trump is the one who stopped the bipartisan bill to stop illegal immigration even though many conservative republican supported the bill and i don't live in woodside too fancy for me but amplifying nonsense is not responsible and more harm than good i'd think you'd be above that elan says answer my question how many unvetted illegal immigrants can we send to your town let's start small how about a hundred then you want to say how about we send them to that beach that you tried to stop the public from using that was such a move vanade defiant el costla uh you won't even let people use your f*cking beach you f*ckle vanade said name calling in a relevant fictional pictures is the best you can do instead of answering the question did trump stop through his lobbying a strong illegal immigration bill that had strong bipartisan support and elan said i'm sending you that sign is a gift you know you want it and here's the sign wow so crazy that costla put this sign on a public beach and he's joking vanade said the mice in spring field are complaining that there is no reduction in cats because of the Haitians maybe too many cats ladies then elan said vanade says we should send tens of thousands of unvetted migrants to small towns throughout america but he didn't even want the public to walk on his beach then he said i'm throwing a party on vanade's beach for cuisine i'm thinking barbecue and then he went on to say okay so how many migrants can we send you stop dodging the question let the beach party commence party and vanade said and you are not hypocritical on climate and trump and what am i hypocritical on very american defense of property rights or is it something else i'm missing remember i'm an independent not a democrat or republican there are democrats independence republicans and then there are f*ckle maga extremists test election denialism you never answered my previous question on if the election was stolen elan said no i don't think 2020 was stolen as all the independent voters i know myself included leaned towards biden thinking he was a milk toast moderate boring but moderate unfortunately he turned out to be a radical leftist puppet of the machine who loves overreaching bureaucracy just like kamala that's why i and almost all independent voters i know are supporting trump this time around now you stop being a damn hypocrite and have some empathy for small towns throughout america getting swamped by ten thousand plus poorly vetted migrants it's not right vanade said thank you and respect that we'll add to my respect for your entrepreneurial achievements still trying to get a rational answer for which causes more crime illegal immigrant crimes versus hate bomb threats and bullying by the fictitious Haitian stories and other anti-immigrant hate fiction that donald trump is knowingly spreading to divide the nation elan said i am extremely pro-immigrant being one myself however just as when hiring for a company we should confirm that anyone allowed into the country is talented hardworking and ethical de facto open borders is as insane as allowing anyone to join one of your companies without even going through an interview and vanade said agree a hundred percent as a fellow immigrant also agree legal vetted immigration is a huge advantage that america has over many other nations and illegal immigration has to be stopped and elan said great vanade went on to say this marriageocratic and promote individual freedoms over the heavy hand of government i agree with how much government money to space x get could tesla have survived without eevee subsidies unfortunately twitter doesn't get government money i guess which of these would you rather the government didn't spend money on and reduce the deficit elan says do some research before you display your utter ignorance space x gets no subsidies and received half as much as bowing for astronaut transport but did 100 percent of the work as for tesla take a minute to read our public filing and you will see that eevee incentives represent a minor part of our revenue on the other hand oil and gas companies get massive tax breaks that exceed those given to the eevee industry by several orders of magnitude wake up and vanade says i have to agree that biden's treatment of tesla as the eevee leader was unfair so i understand your ire towards them so i mean i guess it was kind of a discussion i mean yes there was name calling elan probably should tone that down but it does also appear that vanade had really no good information about his arguments i mean look you ever have like a really bad day and then someone comes up to you and they just press the wrong button and you're just really mad for no like not really the right reasons i think it's pretty much the same thing here i think the vanade kind of went into this not in the best way uh neither did elan but elan's been kind of in the middle of this for maybe we should say the past 10 years 12 years i don't know um has it gotten worse recently yes has elan put his foot in things by like buying twitter yes you could argue that um well and also we're getting down to the last few weeks of the you know the campaign and it just starts getting crazy this time um when you get to presidential stuff so wiggle says should there be a standalone groccap elan said there will be soon zuby says which countries are going to be global superpowers in the year 2100 and elan said ai and then elan says if this happens i will literally dress like that and have a giant doge sign and that is if he is the head of the department on government efficiency so then elan responded to these articles about the homelessness problem in california he said the more that is spent the worse it gets because the money doesn't go to the homeless it goes to the hundreds of charities that then treat the homeless as a source of revenue the more homeless there are the more money these organizations get so their incentive is to increase not decrease homelessness whatever you incentivize will happen and then mark ruffalo went to a rant about elan elan musk is such a two-faced turncoat trader because he was a climate champion and then elan said bazaar i've done literally a million times more than ruffalo to advance sustainable energy and who have i sold out to anyway how much did they pay me nothing as far as i know god sad says dear elan i'm sorry to report to you that mark ruffalo does not like you i hope that you take this devastating information with some do serenity elan says perhaps one day we can

driving at his local supercharger in los gatos california as they were driving back from the arctic circle on their way to florida tom shared these photos of the cybertruck tour in chiang Mai, Thailand. Miranda spotted this fisker ocean at the costco parking lot in federal way washington maybe we should start leaving sympathy cards on fisker ocean owners with windshields to rub it in i'm not rubbing it in i just mean like i do feel bad i do i meant really oh okay rav spotted this vintage ford while on an elaskan cruise when they stopped in ketchup can alaska wow look at that i don't see where the big battery is it must be like in the back maybe in the trunk that's in so it's a conversion it's a conversion yeah wow that's really cool for a second i thought that was like a lincoln arc welder it's like wow okay ryan shared this story from the daily news in los angeles of tesla turning a vacant 444 000 square foot kmart in north hollywood into a showroom 444 000 square feet that's like 10 acres big well okay let's see let's go to the map so it's located at 13,000 west sherman way according to the article so wow yeah so according to the article it used to not only be a kmart but also a sears auto center has 117 parking spaces 660 charging stations and it also reports in this article that tesla's opening another facility in chatsworth at 9201 north wenakka avenue that was a 118 000 square foot multiplex so looks like tesla's expanding like crazy in california is that going to be one show room i mean they have i think i have five models of vehicles right it's going to be like a giant service center oh it's going to be a giant service center i think wow yeah david attended the rivian pop-up event in portland oregon he said the r3 was there as well but not on official display the funniest thing i saw was a starlink dish set up beside the rivian mobile service truck the salesperson pretended he didn't know what it was i don't know if someone else had just dropped or no what could not be i don't know also kind of a dumb way to place it so that half of its block brian writes in to share the story of a natural gas pipeline exploding in deer park texas so the mayor of deer park said that the intense heat from the explosion get this lasted for more than 12 hours and a lot of the house structures that are adjacent to that are still catching on fire even though we're putting a lot of water on them so a thousand homes and schools had to be evacuated so what caused it a vehicle drove through a chain link fence and hit the pipeline not an electric vehicle mind you an ice vehicle harris county judge lina hidalgo said in a statement that 20 miles that's 32 kilometers of pipeline between the two closed valves had to burn off before the fire would stop brian says good thing oil and gas is super safe and never causes fires like those evil evs and no fines from the texas commission on environmental quality even though they find spacex for dumping potable water a couple weeks ago they could use that potable water they got it though that's why they find them i guess because they knew there'd be this explosion they didn't dan shares photos of these electric street cleaners in prog check republic wait so the second one there is an electric vacuum cleaner that you just like pull along and like in vacuum the street with that is so smart i've never seen that before that's really awesome peter spotted this orange wrapped cyber truck in a wheelie hanalulu hawaii long-time viewer jeff from acron ohio went road tripping recently in his model y long-range quicksilver with bikes charging here at the version four supercharger in kentucky hope you had a good trip that sentence is something that i would not have imagined happening back when we started the show in 2016 matt spot of this fair day future ff-9 one in palos verde's california without a sentence i would have thought of even last week i wouldn't have thought that that would have a sentence i would have said maybe we need to put a so sorry postcard on there we chilled as well sinthia spotted this tesla semi filling up with gas no no that is delivering pepsi products at this 76 station and medera california i thought it was fantastic and daniel shared this evey car show in caustic slavakia at a shopping mall where you could even test drive test loads and they even had a cyber truck wow how do you do that that's awesome that's awesome all right time for supercharger reviews but before we get to that let's look at a beautiful supercharger jesse this is the hundredth supercharger site in australia now i don't think it's installed on the beach i think that was just a photo op um oh let us know australians this is in glenn egg which is right outside of atelade in australia i mean i don't think you have to pull into the beach but maybe do and just the beach ball come with it do you get to play beach ball there you go nice all right so let's see what we got out there for supercharger reviews i'm at the crossovel tennessee supercharger i'm just off of interstate 40 i think exit number was 320 and we are at one of the probably worst amenity having locations that i've seen in my travels to tesla superchargers i mean there's a buckies across the street there's well across the highway there's a windies across the street which is where i had to go to use the bathroom and we're at uh the backup of winery which is not open right now when i came through on my way to Nashville the other day it wasn't opened so and because that was the middle of the night of course so of course it was closed but um there's nothing that you can easily walk to you'd have to go and like i did use the bathroom before you come over here it gets you something to eat before you come over here if you needed to eat and that's pretty much it um the charger obviously there's nobody here and i was rerouted to this one because if i'd have gone all the way to Nashville then um there might have been a wake so i guess people don't stop here let's say absolutely need to um i'm probably should have pushed to Nashville i mean to Knoxville um just to see um what it was like there maybe would have had some better amenities but you know it's a uh version three charger and you know even if you had a trailer well if you had a hitch on the back of your vehicle you'd be able to to charge with no problem because there's plenty of space but if you had a trailer here um you probably have to any hitch so that's another ding on this charging location um if i had to rate it probably a four just because a black of amenities and you know no accommodations for if you're actually towing something so here you have it the Crossville Supercharger off of Interstate 40 Crossville, Tennessee now you know hey Zach and Jesse Joseph our letter here with Smart Charge America coming to you in Beaumont, Texas looks like a new version 3 12 stall 250 kw supercharger not too much with regards to amenities here in the small sharp and shopping mall area on the subway right here which is a too bad hotel but what i wanted to kind of show you all was how this particular station was built and so essentially if you look over here just above those white cars you can see a transformer coming in down from the utility company so construction company went ahead extending that transformer all the way underground to this transformer pad here from that transformer pad utility meter so for what the so on is hooked up and there's conduits underground are being sent to these three cabinets each cabinet is connected to four stalls and so you have 10 stalls in this row here what are the interesting things that I can't even I don't see this too many times with the Tesla supercharging spot is here right underground there's no trench line across the driveway so with the construction company did was they actually bored underground all the way to the other side here for the last two stalls and you can see the actual bore spout that it came out from there that that was actually pretty cool those are your transformers over there overall I give this supercharging spot nine out of ten lots of hard work love the dedicated team over at Tesla their supercharger team are all stars keep up the good work guys now you know hey Zac and Jesse this is Marty Addison coming to you from the first Tesla supercharging station in Oceanside California it's a 20 station V3 supercharger and it's located right in the heart of downtown Oceanside just about three block walk from the to the Oceanside pier and the plenty of amenities in the area including brewery right behind me in that black building there's a tremendous popular restaurant called Swamis Cafe a two block walk and there's a multitude of different fast food restaurants right in this little shopping center it's a delightful place come visit Oceanside this is a great place to do a long charge because there's lots of fun things to do including walking down to the Oceanside pier having a nice meal and enjoying the beautiful sunshine today is august 23rd 2024 look forward to seeing you here in Oceanside hi this is Daniel from Barcelona and I'm here at La Rocadel Vasez to present you guys with a brand new supercharger we have 12 stalls they are all version fours and I think this is a really nice location for a supercharger because we're just a couple minutes off the AP7 highway which is connecting France with Barcelona city and it's also a really nice location because it's inside the parking lot of the Rocadel village outlet that you can see in the back and this outlet is really nice it has a lot of shops quite a few dining options and really nice restrooms especially those nearest to the supercharger however you have to know that this supercharger has an issue and it's the fact that you can only access this supercharger during the opening hours of the outlet so fortunately the outlet is open all year round even on Sundays except for four days which it's closed and the schedule is from 10am to 10pm in summer and from 10am to 9pm in winter so I'd say that for the reason of the limit of the schedule I would have to give this supercharger a 7 out of 10 now you know thank you so much for doing supercharger reviews we have a map on our website we can check them all out go to naynochannel.com and you
