My Gosh! PHEW!!! LostSnail is smelling the FEAR coming from his ARMPITS!!!!! LostSnail, try washing.
The Greeny types seem to have run out of arguments and now basically admit the unproven still experimental Tesla is basically a fiery death trap on wheels.
And the Greeny types still have to learn you need about SEVEN Tesla wall units to charge just ONE Tesla!!!!!!!
And how long will it take to charge a flat Tesla battery using just 20 solar panels ? A week ? A month ?
And now what the Greeny types HATE - FACTS to spoil their Greeny fantasies.
How Many Solar Panels Do You Need To Charge An Electric Car?October 5, 2017 by Ronald Brakels 28 Comments
dude charging his car with solar
If you are thinking of buying an electric car and have solar then you need to read this.I recently wrote about how an electric car revolution is coming thanks to declining battery costs and rising environmental concern. I made a promise in that article I would soon write about charging electric cars with rooftop solar and soon is now. Or at least it soon will be.
One concern that came up in the comments was whether people could fit enough panels on their roof to charge an electric car. But the good news is a car that’s driven the average distance for an Australian passenger vehicle is likely to require less than 8 kilowatt-hours a day. This means for most households 2 kilowatts of solar panels will produce more electrical energy over the course of a year than an electric car will consume. Most homes can fit 2 kilowatts of panels on their roof in addition to enough panels to equal or exceed household electricity consumption.
The bad news is 56% of Australian families have 2 or more cars.
Electric Car Kilowatt-Hour ConsumptionThe number of kilometers an electric car can drive per kilowatt-hour of stored electricity varies. Fortunately, it is easy enough to use US Environmental Protection Agency figures to determine range per kilowatt-hour of battery storage1. Some examples are:
Tesla Model 3: 7 kilometers
Chevolet Bolt: 6.4 kilometers
Mitsubishi i-MiEV: 6.3 kilometers
2016 Nissan Leaf: 5.7 kilometers
Tesla S sports car: 5.3 kilometers
Because electric cars won’t allow their battery to go completely flat to protect it from deterioration, the real kilometers per kilowatt-hour are slightly higher, but it should make little difference, as modern electric cars don’t leave much juice in the electric juice pack once they hit zero kilometers of remaining range.
Unlike the range figures that come from Europe or Japan, the US ones are reasonably realistic and it is possible for a normal driver to replicate them or even do better if they’re careful. But if your driving style consists of alternating between stomping on the accelerator and stomping on the brake then I’m afraid you’ll do much worse, while if you someone who drives like you are gently making love, then you’ll probably be arrested and I strongly recommend getting the tinted windows option.
70s Smooth Style. It is possible to now buy electric cars that look even better than they did in the 70s. (It’s impossible to find pants that good though.)

A Tesla Model S electric car caught fire in Washington, after a collision.
It's that ethylene glycol in the radiator at the front used to cool the fire bomb lithium battery.
