A charge of 60 miles in an hour is slow but without people like them, innovation would never happen.

Its more for an emergency situation like your in the middle of the desert or on a stretch of road far away from a charging station. Its a AAA for electric cars

[@sh0cktim3]

60 miles in a hour is actually not bad at all and you can stack them to reduce time they said. I really want some a EV offroad/ kinda truck and this would totally remove my anxiety of being in the middle of no where with one.

[@abtdrums]

Sure, but its better than having nothing when the next charging station is miles away.

[@mk_735]

It is but in the long run they have the patent, and they can license the product out when they become even bigger which I believe it'll happen, and they'll also improve the capability of it. I believe Mark invested more because electric cars are the future, kind of like when the internet first came out, now people can't breathe without it. Everyone is gambling on the future.

I think creating a portable battery bank that you can put either in the front trunk or in the back trunk of the vehicle would be great. this way no one will be without juice for their vehicle. I'm just surprised that no one has developed a foldable solar panel that you can put on the roof of your vehicle so you're vehicle can charge wirelessly while you're working or at home. Then whenever you're ready to go somewhere you can just fold it and put it in your trunk and go.

This is awesome. I want one to keep in my trunk. The lack of this technology has kept us from upgrading our vehicles to EVs.

[@thatguy1494]

I think it’s a great idea with the lease model. They make the money back in a year. They just need more money to scale out bigger. But it also depends on how often cars really run out of battery on the road. Depends how much triple aaa and other towing companies are willing to pay vs just towing the car themselves to an electric charging station. The consumer product is what can bring this company to the moon.

Yeah it’s totally not the fact he’s a billionaire lol

[@tabi4563]

The best advice ever is in the last 5 seconds of this video. When you raise money you raise an obligation but our media celebrates it as profitability. That is the lesson for all entrepreneurs out there.

[@hobospe2854]

You have a million left.....Mark said that like you say a dollar left

[@rfonline568267]

This is actually a smart idea. Maybe. Not for the us market but internationally. Tesla and other electric vehicles are being imported as of this moment to various countries and so far there is only a limited amount of charging areas outside of houses. This could play a major role for those areas/countries.

Whats stopping Tesla from coming out with their own portable charger ?

[@Tradetek1]

A patent is.

[@XxMeatShakexX]

Its a stupid idea. Its just a battery extension you need to get off your ass, plug in, and wait for. Just make the battery bigger and its the same exact thing but no hassle.

It's not just the media that celebrates raising money. I've many times seen the Sharks say congratulations for raising a lot of money.

They will face stiff competition with Tesla. There may be a lithium shortage-- there are conflicting reports. I think hybrids are a better option than fully electric vehicles.

[@juanh6099]

They found the biggest lithium deposit of around 244 million tons in Mexico last year and they are developing a mine right now. I’m not sure if that’s a lot when added to the rest of the worlds in Bolivia and Chile and the US. China and Russia are very interested in it so I’m guessing it’s a lot.

[@rmtmiller]

Lithium was vital in Z Nation.

[@jpriley100]

There isn't a lithium shortage. Their is a lithium mining shortage. Earth has tons of Lithium. Its just that the mining companies aren't growing as fast as the battery industry needs them to grow. This is why Tesla signed a huge deal with a Lithium mine in NC to majorly expand their operation and Tesla is starting their own mine in Utah. If the mining industry isn't doing it, Tesla will just do it themselves.

[@juanh6099]

@@jpriley100 I mean I’m not very informed on the subject. I know China makes Tesla batteries and China is helping Mexico with the mine development. I know the US has the second biggest deposit in Nevada. I also know mining lithium is very bad for the environment.

New battery tech is using graphene now.

[@thomasaquinas2600]

I have to think the industry, which has had a decade to observe with the Prius, etc., has had something to do this same task. One software solution is to change the range of the EV. Instead of stating the remaining range, state say 90% with a 10% residual only to be used to get home. The early VW Beetles had this, a secondary fuel tank.

ultra fast 1 mile per second so like 5 hours don't the normal ones give a full charge in about an hour

[@jonahpwns]

@@joejacko1587 you aren't using this to get a full charge you're using it because you ran out or are about to and need it to get to a charging station

That is betting that tech won't come in which is better...a huge gamble.

[@corporatehousing5452]

Highly doubt it but anything is possible. Battery technology is advancing so rapidly and big players like Tesla, Porsche, then the rest of the EV market will offer increasing range, better access, etc. Research “towing and regenerative braking”. You can tow an EV for 15 minutes and up the regen braking…since the vehicle is being towed it will charge its battery and give you the supply of a supercharger. People are going to move faster than these guys. Their concept will work for the next few years then become obsolete. I’m guessing there will be 1000 mile range and charging that’s faster than today’s superchargers in the next 5-10 years. Once Tesla releases that info (always ahead of time) it will change the market for these things.
