Hmm, five superchargers to charge one truck. I wonder how many it would take to charge a fleet of 50 or 100 in a window of just 10 hours. Or how much energy will be needed. Or what will happen to these batteries after five to seven years(bigger EV batteries don't last as long) since it is currently not economically feasible to recycle Li-on without subsidies and there would be too many out there to re-use with the projected market share. I guess we can bury them somewhere in California.
And there will be heavy rains in your area tomorrow brought by the dark clouds over your head, lol.
Let me update you with the discussion, just a few post below: it's now mega chargers (hopefully the new pick up launch can use too).
And batteries are now being recycled. That's why you get a credit of $20 (or get charged $20) for your dead ones even for your old fashioned traditional batteries.
