Electric Cars

Just develop a cheap, lightweight, lifetime battery that uses no exotic materials, is the size of a six pack of your favorite brew and can be re-charged in 10 minutes.

Oh, and make it so that it has at least a 500 mile range when installed in the vehicle.

That's all that's holding it up.

I had an answer similar to yours and got called away on business.

I also included the $$$ being charged today is a big handicap. Not too many of the average citizenry has that kind of money for a car, electric or otherwise.

That's why I want a $50.00 battery pack, 6-pack size. Think of all the room left over for a cooler for the beer.

You let business interfere with CR4????

When my boss walks by my office door he sees me slaving away at my computer. Sometimes it's business..........................

Really, I work enough nights and weekends to more than make up for this recreational time.
