Ah, I see - I was thinking along the lines of "Well just dump 20kW into the thing and make it toasty within a minute" - but I guess the battery can't take such a rapid temperature rise, which makes perfect sense.

Hi, I have a very dumb question about battery preconditioning. Is there no way for those DC fast chargers to route some of the crazy high current into a heater to heat up the battery real fast and solve this issue? Or is that too dangerous?

Just makes that impossible practically, considering average poverty levels, and most investment goes to rich people stuff (metros, office buses, etc.)
I already typed way too much, but I know you and your followers are super interested in stuff like this, so hope it wasn't completely useless! (end)

transport isn't all that bad; especially since autorickshaws act as mini-shuttles here rather than taxis like they do in other Indian cities. We do also have local trains, but those are _legendarily_ crowded all the time. Of course you'd think we can just improve the whole system, but budget(4/n)

And while a lot of people do end up relying on taxis/Ubers/etc rather than own a car, there's the usual issues (refusals, delays, etc) with taxis all over the world, with the added bonus they'll often refuse to turn on the AC so you're back to square one! Tho despite all this, IMO our public (3/n)

Apart from that, public transport is crappy if you have any sort of health issues. You basically expect to stand on buses/metros if you're traveling outside absolute dead times. Autorickshaws are very cramped and uncomfortable, especially if you have to sit in the front with the driver. (2/n)

Hi! I live in one of the densest cities in the world (Kolkata) and own a car despite disliking car dependency. So mostly, it's the comfort factor. Only the metro(subway) and a few buses/office shuttles here have AC. That alone makes public transport unviable for many in our normal weather. (1/n)

Long time reader since your LOP days - hope you'll be doing all right very soon man, migraines are some of the absolute worst and it's scary to hear you spent half a day in hospital for it.

Heya, just using this opportunity to ask you if you can recommend some resources on ways large apartment complexes can easily implement EV charging? Or if you're considering making a video on it - that would be amazing

Man idk about this. He's the TNA World Champ and not in a chickenshit heel way or something. Having the world champ of a promotion get clowned by someone who, technically, doesn't even have a title right now, I can see how some might think the optics could be better.
