A WHAT?? Do you KNOW much about electricity, batteries and electric vehicles? I DO! TONS!!!

What you show concern with when you say "but I suppose that's a lot better than getting incinerated in a white hot electrochemical explosion"! What chemicals in a Leaf are likely to explode? Do you KNOW what chemicals are in a Leaf? I DO

As far as I know, the batteries in electric cars are electrochemical storage devices. My guess is that, in a few years, we'll be using solid state batteries. At least that's the direction researchers are scrambling for. This probably does not bode well for Musk/Tesla and his Gigafactory.

Lithium batteries ARE SOLID STATE you MORAN!! Every BIT SOLID STATE! Lithium melts at 357F and nothing IN a Leaf burns at that temp!! And if something DID melt the lithium, so what? The FIRE would be more of a problem than the melted lithium!

Moran!

You must have been smoking weed when they introduced the subject in class. Feel free to believe that cars run on solid state batteries. It's not my job to educate you in the things you should already know.

Namaste!

Of the three common states of matter (or 4 of you count plasma!) are solid, liquid and gaseous. At STP lithium is solid.

What part of "solid state" do you not understand? Remember you are replying to a Computer Engineer!

I'm surprised that you seem unaware that lithium have to potential to explode in a furious white hot ball of flame. You must be smoking too much of that happy weed. Repent before it's too late!

When people say "solid state" batteries, they mean that it doesn't use a liquid electrolyte to facilitate ionic movement in the cell. You know how there are two kind of capacitors? Solid state capacitors and electrolytic capacitors? Same thing. The only difference is that most lithium batteries use a liquid electrolyte.

"Do you KNOW what chemicals are in a Leaf? I DO"

Here's the part where you get to answer your own question and prove your education didn't go up completely in smoke.

Namaste!

Hey, I was a software engineer once. Does that mean I'm a genius too?

Software is candy, it must rin on hardware to get anything done.

Ever hear of the book Programming Pearls? Required reading for one of my Computer Engineering classes. We had no classes in programming languages but as we went through the Computer Engineering program at WashU 1989 to 1995 we learned to expect in certain classes we'd be programming in certain specific languages. Pascal, C, LISP, ADA, PROLOG, etc. Assembler too! Nothing in BASIC that I remember.

i thought you were an electrical engineer. Two totally different
educations and professions.

FWIW, most of us don't think you're anything except an unemployed and
mentally unstable nurse.

There's that 1960's college "electrical engineering degree" showing
it's age. Batteries are not considered solid state, only
semiconductors when compared to vacuum tubes. Lithium (and all
batteries for the last 2,300 years) batteries are electromechanical.
They rely on chemical reactions to store energy and convert it to
electricity. Atoms and other shit is moving in those batteries, you
just can't see it.

Even I know that and I don't have a useless electrical engineering
degree.

This is the first time dsi1 actually got something right. but then he
follows it up with this "I guess... " bullshit, as usual.

ObFood: According to nutritional information, there's less than half a
spear of asparagus in a can of Campbell's Cream of Asparagus Soup, yet
it costs twice as much as Cream of Celery Soup. this means they're
paying $28/pound for asparagus. Or that they're just greedy assholes
preying on gullible consumers.

My recommendation is that you stay away from high-stakes poker games.

I don't play no games!

Games are an artificial human construct of rules and restrictions!!

I say NO RESTRICTIONS!! Mother Nature puts enough on us.

You forgot the one where you pretend to be a engineer/scientist/guru/jokester and then try to bluff your way through life. I love games but only if it involves the knowledge and consent of the players. Don't involve me in your games and we'll get along just fine.
