I’m not sure how he did this, but I doubt it is good for the health of the battery. I was hoping he would share his install process, what voltage the generator outputted, and how he interfaced it with the car.

Well. Well well well well.

Ah yes, good point. Maybe they would have to do it in more than 5 pieces.

If they do make one, I wonder how they would handle the under-bed storage compartment

It’s not that thick, no. The sides are thin rigid plastic, and the rubber mat is maybe 1/4-1/2 of an inch thick.

https://www.dualliner.com/ I wonder if these guys will make a liner for the Cybertruck. People are concerned about stuff sliding around in the vault. I have one of these in my truck and it keeps everything where I put it, unless I take corners and curves at higher speeds.

I watched the Munro video on Lightship. If I stumble upon a windfall, I will definitely get it. Unfortunately I will probably have to wait for a cheaper model.

no, not proven wrong. Destination chargers and other companies worthless, usually broken chargers are not viable solutions for a road trip. Your proof is laughable as is your attempts to find a supercharger gap. Try traveling due north in this area with a trailer. Do you really want to bet...

Not a viable solution for traveling to or from. You’d have to add hours or a day to your trip just to charge. Be reasonable here.

A cursory look at the supercharger map and there are plenty of places you can go that are out of towing range from a supercharger. Too many to list. “The sky is blue” “Prove it. Show me.” “Step outside on a sunny day” “I didn’t see blue skies” “Did you look at the sky? “No, I want you to...

Lol you aren’t looking hard enough. Big 259 mile gap between the interstates.

I likely will not be able to afford their product so I’m not even bothering to reserve. I was burned pretty bad by some other crowdfunding ventures, and usually wait until the product comes to market now.

That us exactly what this trailer would need to be. It would need to communicate directly with the truck in order to coordinate motor operation, and by having its own drive motor (with regen) would be far more efficient than just towing a battery. Meaning an RV of this type would serve you...

[ I agree, my hobby tends to take me to remote places with no nearby chargers. I usually do not spend much time near my car, but it would be nice to sleep the night of arrival in the camper and the night before the day of departure, perhaps. I hope I can charge an EV with it, because that may...

The map looks pretty, but towing a large trailer means you can’t cross the gap between rural superchargers without running out of charge. There are some remote areas that are not covered either. I’m not sharing my location, so I’m not sharing where my family goes. However, I will say that I...
