That is a big NMC battery, right?

Thanks @Pib. As is now a familiar pattern within the EV industry, the Tesla sales guy served me some porky pies 🥧 during the recent test drive, as he said the batteries was made by Tesla. From memory I also recall Elmo was saying the batteries 🔋 were flying off the assembly line like bullets, when Tesla was building the first mega factor in the US. In the Tesla guys defense, Tesla might not make the little round battery cell, but they do manufacture the battery pack, so maybe a language thing.

The EV propaganda machine is getting increasingly desperate. In the above from the cherry 🍒 farmer we have two different vehicle definitions, happily mixed together as misinformation; EV's and electric cars. In Thailand 🇹🇭 we define an EV as an 100% battery vehicle, so BEV = EV. An electric car in the above charts are BEV + PHEV, hence fake and misleading information. This is the true numbers for 2023: Fully electric or battery electric vehicles (BEVs) accounted for 9.5 million out of the 13.6 million electric cars sold around the world in 2023, with PHEVs accounting for the rest.

Lamb chop with mustard crust.

Tesla makes their own batteries, right? How come they are not in ur list?

All thanks to frac'ing. The Permian basin is producing nearly 6 million bbls/day alone.

Electric busses is actually a good idea, especially since the alternative is this.... An9P1C3yn_SMSbfj7h5shbWKrj-8Xka0KIkGo0iDMv6oo4-NT7VSRw88F2mqfAZOxVFcipWL_5axBpwriPXcL8E.mp4

Thanks Gman. The Lisbon fires 🔥 is more relevant to Thailand than most people realize. The Korean underground parking and Lisbon Airport fire is already being closely monitored by fire authorities in Thailand 🇹🇭. As EVs become more prevalent, it is just a matter of time before we also have a possible fatal multistorey parking fire in Thailand. There are 1,000s of condos, offices and shopping centers with hundreds of cars parked. The deads will quickly be forgotten, but who will pay for the hundreds of burned 🔥 out cars? The insurance? The car owner? The EV manufacturer? The charging station?

Ups.... 🔥 A major fire broke out on Thursday evening in a long-term car park in the industrial area of Prior Velho, near Lisbon International Airport. Initial reports suggest that a parked electric car may have caused the fire. No injuries have been reported so far. The fire, which was discovered at around 18:00 p.m. local time, required the deployment of around 140 firefighters and 48 vehicles, who tried to bring the fire under control until late in the evening. Their main focus is to prevent the fire from spreading to the adjacent industrial area. Despite the smoke, air traffic at Lisbon Airport has so far remained unaffected. https://aviation.direct/en/major-fire-in-parking-garage-near-Lisbon-airport ssstwitter.com_1724071982874.mp4

Please show your numbers, including what EV Mr. Y-tail should have bought to replace the Fortuner 8 years ago?

Since I was playing around with the Cybertruck at CTW, Tesla has been calling, practically begging me to take a test drive and Model 3 was what they had available at Paragon. Please share your single pedal wisdom since turning it off is not an option on Teslas. It was easy to get the one foot motor memory, but it does make you slightly dizzy and you mentally don't expect this dragging break feeling.

We have a really friendly, good looking and intelligent Lazada delivery guy in the building we live in 😉 😜.

The future belongs to the young, so I took the gang for a test drive 🚗 in a Tesla 3. Admittedly, the technology is impressive. I can see how the voice controlled information system can become a source of entertainment and chaos in the cabin for the kids. The long charging stops might be a welcoming break for daddy 👨 the driver. The single pedal drive control feels like you are driving in deep sand and will take some time to get use to. The indicator control on the steering wheel is just dumb and impossible to use while turning. All in all a nice car. The little one signed the test drive off with a bucket 🪣 of vomit 🤢, except we didn't have a bucket, but the Tesla guy played it cool.

But still way closer to the truth than the fake insurance and lawyer fire 🔥 data that spurious minds were sharing here earlier and that is what matters. The truth will eventually shine through the haze of propaganda.

This is what I send to scammers 😊 😃.

I asked the building manager and maintenance team. Their answer was that it is thread tamadar, aka normal thread 😊 😃. Nope, I don't have a thread gauge and it is also hard to measure before I cut. Worst case, I will be out of water for a day or two.

Fact avoidance again. Another way of saying it, is that Thai EVs are 84% more likely to catch fire 🔥 than the global Tesla average. Can u help my small brain 🧠 to calculate if the circumference of a pie is pi or that rule does not apply for raspberry pies? 😊 😊 😊 😊

Reduce that to 6 times in Thailand 🇹🇭. Thai EV fire 🔥 risk: 9.2 fire/billion miles Tesla global: 5 fire/billion miles ICE (USA): 55 fire/billion miles 1. Tesla 3 - September 20th, 2021, power pole collision Rama 2, Bangkok. 2. BYD Atto 3 - January 21st, 2023, house fire, Songkran. Traction battery did not burn. 3. BYD Seal - March 14th, 2024, Ratchaburi roll-over. 4. Porsche Taycan - May 24th, 2024, battery explosion, Paradise Car Showroom, Bangkok. 5. Neta-V - June 11th, 2024, median accident and fire, Saraburi. 6. Neta-V - June 12th, 2024, accident and fire at towing area, Tha Phra, Khon Kaen. 7. MG ES - June 22nd, 2024, hit axle part on the road, Chonburi motorway.

I am trying to connect to this and I am 99.9% sure it is BSP, but would be nice to be 100% sure.

Some Bimmers like to look like EVs.....🔥 🕯 🔥. FDownloader.Net_An-CztwplbB_6D226QGmsAudMeQY2KcgvYztIUOT-ENBWb4blJ4EMtGfxxmg19jlA2xSV0Tf4M0hpdslRvFGs5Q_720p_(HD).mp4

Is repetition your new thing or just the result of yesterday's wine 🍷?

Both BSP and NPT are Slightly tapered, the thread angle is just 5 degrees different. A lot of bathroom fittings come in NPT, but I think most water piping is done in BSP.

Is that a bald-headed version of the ginger viking? Little Elliot should learn to count to two ✌️. At 11:40 he mention two problems. 1. Brand recognition 2. Elliot never made it past one and forgot this one. Amateur. EV fans are as usual struggling with numbers.

Is Thaialnd mostly using NPT or BSP pipe thread, or a mix of both? With enough teflon tape an a bit of brute force they will of course make up, but which thread is most common here?

I don't think there are numbers in the known Universe that can count the times we have seen SeñorLA's MG battery life cycle projection spreadsheet or heard about and seen YouTube videos of the Cherry 🍒 farms solar setup and lack of PEA meter, not to mention a broken down Porsche or someone who bought 5 EVs and still didn't learn from his mistakes. Repetition seem to be EV owners favorite activity, I am just trying to blend in. In this case, the post was not for you, but it never hurts to repeat humor, especially if you didn't understood the joke first time around 😉.
