Unsafe Tesla pile of junk BLOWS UP!!!
Apr 23rd, 2019 at 12:22pm
 
Dangerous Tesla fire bomb car goes skywards in Shanghai!!!!!!

Much to the shock and dismay of the dumb Tesla Fan Girls Tweedledumb and Tweedledee!!!

Do you have a death wish ? Then climb into an unsafe Tesla and wait for a wheel to fall off or for it to EXPLODE!!!!





Surveillance Video of Tesla Exploding in Shanghai Parking Lot Goes Viral

VIDEO: Up she goes!!! BOOM!!!


Tesla is adamant that its cars are significantly less likely to catch fire than your average car, as Reuters reports, but that still hasn’t kept a surveillance video from spreading worldwide, showing a Tesla Model S bursting into flame and all but disappearing, Spinal Tap-style, in a parking garage reportedly in Shanghai.

That location is a funny one, as Tesla is gearing up to start making its own cars outside the city, with Gigafactory 3 under construction at the moment.

Elon Musk broke ground on a third Tesla Gigafactory in Shanghai earlier today, announcing that the…



In any case, all of this blew up on Weibo, China’s other big social media platform that’s not WeChat. Thankfully, a local Tesla owner, Jay in Shanghai, put this all up on Twitter with some translations to make things easier for us.

Looks like an internal combustion Tesla

Baron,

that's brilliant. You can almost see those Tesla Fan Girls, the Twin Tweedle Twits, squirming.

But then most of the unsafe Teslas are pumping out pollution running on coal from the coal power stations for their quick recharge.

And Bulldust Billy CANNOT say how much his NBN Mark 2, an electric car in every garage, will cost.

The analysis below excludes the benefits from recovery of energy from regenerative electric braking which is often applied in urban traffic.

If Bulldust was a valuable commodity, conservatives on Ozpolitic would be billionaires:

https://cleantechnica.com/2018/03/10/electric-car-myth-buster-efficiency/

Quote:
...One of the other common assertions we hear all the time from the anti-EV crowd is that electric cars are no more efficient than cars powered by internal combustion engines. Let’s take a closer look at that claim. According to the US Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, “EVs convert about 59%–62% of the electrical energy from the grid to power at the wheels. Conventional gasoline vehicles only convert about 17%–21% of the energy stored in gasoline to power at the wheels.”

An electric motor typically is between 85% and 90% efficient. That means it converts that percentage of the electricity provided to it into useful work. The difference between the efficiency of the motor and the overall efficiency of an electric car is accounted for losses attributed to charging and discharging the battery and, for some charging (for some cars), converting AC to DC current and back again.

In a recent post for Quora, Brian Feldman, a robotics expert and entrepreneur, offered this explanation: “Consider the Tesla Model S, which has an available 85 kWh battery and a 265 mile range. Consider a similar gas-powered car, which gets 35 mpg. Gasoline contains about 33 kWh of energy per gallon. The Tesla uses 320 Wh/mile of energy (85 kWh/265 miles). The gas powered car uses 940 Wh/mile of energy (33 kWh/35 miles). Once the energy is on board (not counting the efficiency of the power generation, oil refining, or charging), the Tesla is using only about a third as much energy as the comparable gasoline-powered car.”

Electric car opponents like to point out that the source of the electricity has to be considered when determining overall efficiency, and of course they are right. Figures lie and liars figure, as we all know. And it is true that charging and EV with electricity made from burning coal is not as environmentally friendly as powering it with electricity made from wind turbines or solar panels. But that argument sets up a false premise — that we shouldn’t drive electric cars because they could use electricity from coal-powered generating plants.

The real point, however, is that electric car drivers tend to be more environmentally aware than drivers of Super Stupid Duty pickup trucks powered by enormous diesel engines. They are also more likely to demand their local utility company incorporate more renewable energy in their energy mix. The result is that electric cars are pushing the transition to a more sustainable energy grid forward.

And notice that fossil fuel advocates never include the emissions associated with exploring for oil and gas, getting it out of the ground, transporting it to refineries, converting it into gasoline or diesel fuel, transporting it to local distributors, and then trucking it to neighborhood gas stations. It’s easy to criticize the other guys when you ignore your own liabilities.

Lastly, EV bashers warn that charging an electric car will cause your electric bill to skyrocket. Well, yeah. Using more electricity will cost you more money than using less electricity. D’uh. But here’s the thing. In terms of how far you can drive on electricity versus on gasoline, electricity wins hands down. Here’s how the Sierra Club explains it:

“While you’ll spend more on electricity, the savings on gas will more than cover it. If you drive a pure battery electric vehicle 15,000 miles a year at current electricity rates (assuming $.12 per kilowatt hour though rates vary throughout the country), you’ll pay about $500 per year for the electricity to charge your battery, but you’ll save about $1900 in gas (assuming $3.54 per gallon, a 28 miles per gallon vehicle, and 15,000 miles driven). So $1900 minus $500 equals $1400 in savings — a 74% reduction in fueling costs. Some utilities are offering EV owners lower off-peak/nighttime rates. The more we successfully advocate for these off-peak incentives, the lower your electricity payments will go.” ...

Please don't thank me. Effusive fawning and obeisance of disciples, mendicants, and foot-kissers embarrass me.

ok Lee what do you find wrong about that ?

Do your find their estimates wrong ?

As expected the Tesla Fan Girl Tweedledee rushes out of the swamp of delusion to spout more lies and ignorance from her Tesla Fan Girl cesspool of lies.

LarfTillUDie comes up with some silly Greeny Tesla Fan Girl nonsense.

Strewth these unsafe Tesla fire balls are going up all over the place. Is Global Warming causing this ?

Who would want a terrorist fire bomb like this in their garage ????



Tesla Vehicle Bursts Into Flames, Burns For Hours In Monroeville
April 17, 2019 at 11:26  Monroeville, Pittsburgh

MONROEVILLE (KDKA) — A Tesla vehicle was on fire for hours Wednesday night in Monroeville.

It happened at Smeltz Auto Service on Monroeville Road.


Firefighters say the vehicle caught fire in February in a garage in Fox Chapel.

The vehicle was towed to the shop in Monroeville on Wednesday and somehow caught fire again.

Forensic engineers say electric car batteries are unstable.


“We removed the car from the garage. A Tesla engineer removed the fuse from the battery pack prior to transport, indicating that would make the car safe for transport. We brought it here to Monroeville, arrived around 3:30 in the afternoon, and about 6:20, the car spontaneously caught fire,” forensic engineer David Bizzak said.


The car burned for about four hours before firefighters were finally able to put out the flames.

Maybe instead of individual anecdotes juliar, could you propduce overall statistics?

or mention that in the USA there are 840 car fires a DAY and 540 deaths  a year from them...…
Yes the Tesla S and X seem to have issue's about fire, still less than normal ICE vehicle's, the new battery and casing in the New Tesla 3 have never caught on fire however. Tesla do a lot to address problems and with a make over for their 2 flagship models happening now, id say they will include better battery management and even less chance of thermal runaways  Wink

BH is trying to change the subject as he always does. He hasn't a clue about the topic but wants to sound intelligent.

And the super dumb Tweedledee tries the same thing as she tries to depart from the TOPIC which is EXPLODING UNSAFE TESLA PILES OF JUNK.

But as always what the silly Tweedledee coot wants to see is another unsafe Tesla crash.

Another Tesla S goes up in smoke.

And inevitable response. I am aware Teslas are catching on firte, but posting individual anecdotes doesn't show any actual issues, thats why I want you to produce the overall statistics


And cue inevitable response about changing subject, even though my point about stats is very much on topic.

Lee,

These dangerous unsafe Tesla heaps of junk have been known to explode while being charged and the cause is apparently the battery overheating and then bursting into a flaming inferno as lithium burns like crazy.

One went up in freezing Norway a few years ago while being connected to a Tesla Super Charger and burnt to the ground.

Here it is:-

...



Would you want to risk having one of these terrorist fire bombs in your garage ?

Would your home insurance cover the loss of your house and home to an exploding Tesla fire bomb ?

No wonder Tesla insurance is extremely expensive!!!! You need a fire policy!!!!


BH unless you are chained to a wheelchair and helpless then there is NOTHING stopping you from doing what you desire - only your indolence.

Think how you could run the discussion off onto an irrelevant tangent.

Perhaps you can start a TOPIC on unsafe dangerous Tesla statistics ?
