This video was brought to you by AED Ro Planner Camp power Marcus be storb and B Componente wa this is interesting wait Vehicle shutting down pull over sa what Already it's fairly safe Right huh that's it oh we have a slight problem here This is not Staged the trunk won't open It seems like they're probably 12 volt okay this is bad the screens are Dead the 12vt might be low but can I at Least open the chge boort please please Please please Please I need to open the charge Boort if I can't open the chard I have Big problems Now yo what's up we're now in front of The house and behind me here you see Mill falcon or Tesla ball SP 85 and uh This car is almost 10 years old now and It has done uh well over 360,000 km on The r we're going to check but um the Battery is 9 years old it was replaced Uh in 2014 because of some early issues But the ever since then the battery has Been running fine no problem 9 years Around 285,000 km and I just want to Know uh when we drive this car down to Zero and until it stops which is below Zero uh the car claims 4 KW hour buffer Uh the BMS has been programmed to try to Maintain that 4 kwatt Hour buffer even Though the battery has degraded so in

This test we're going to check can we Actually get 4 KW hour or is it less Than that so yeah it now belongs to Marcus Beal he has done a few Modifications and uh yeah but let me Show you now this got my Tesla wait no what the heck why is it Doing that Chinese thing when it starts Playing music even though I muted it Okay Anyway you see here we have uh discharg It down to 30% I would like to take it Even lower but whatever um and okay so If you go to this tab let me show you Here the alt Tab and then scroll down a Bit you will see some uh some values Here no okay nominal full pack this is Supposedly what you can get if you Charge it 100% And then drive it down to Complete the zero until it stops uh this Is the one we're looking for energy Buffer 4 KW hour below zero H yeah okay Uh let's uh drive a little bit okay one Other thing I didn't show you no no Not is that the battery is at Um 15.7 de C so yeah I might want to Heat it up a little bit if I can so I Will drive over to cleavage now and then We try to run out the juice over there It's nicer there yeah nicer background The Windows XP background over There all right we've been driving for a While and we are almost at 0% you see Here 3% left and then here we have uh

Typical range of 1.6 km and then 2 KW Hour left but still supposedly 4 KW Buffer so this is the one before we Completed stop supposed yeah so now I'm On the smaller side roads yeah this is Usually where I end up try to always Place myself here so that um I get a Nice clickbait the thumbnail yeah we Need to feed the sun you know let's not Forget the sun they need some more Content from my channel they can steal All right so yeah okay almost almost Z It says 0% the display but um on the car Display but you see that is not absolute Zero yet so a little bit more and let me See All right we hit zero actually a little Bit is minus uh .1 yeah a little bit Past it but close enough okay so I reset The trip meter here I also reset the Trip in the what the huh man in uh scam Tesla which stands to bug so I need to Do this and then this and then restart It and then hopefully it's okay yeah so Now we drive and then as I always do With other cars also we uh turn off HB And then we draw around and we see uh When it stops and also you see one Indication that the the BMS is in good Health now it's not Uncalibrated don't mix up uh calibration And balance because the battery should Be very well balanced but uh if it's not Calibrated it might not know where the

Bottom is but it should know now because We have over 100 yeah over 100 kilowatt Power limit you can see it here on the Dotted dashed line here we can see that We have 134 kilow power limit so this Seems normal uh as long as you have more Than 100 KW power limit then you can Actually drive quite a while so if you Guys are wondering what the heck how did You get this display here this is the Classic display you get in the old cars You don't get that in newer cars anymore So um Yeah uh they it seems like they stopped Developing the uh this this software or Or at least some of it so you know at One point they stopped displaying um Decimals in the distance just like in This screen right you see 83 km but you Can see here that it's actually 82.7 km Actually when this one is 82.5 km it Turns 83 km here so it makes me wonder Why the heck did Tesla remove decimals Because it's very useful and most cars I'd say at least 95% of the cars I test Nowadays they actually show decimals in Trip meter that's how I can do 999 you Know when I do 1,000 km challenge so but If the if you get the classic cars you Still get Decimals whoa this is interesting wait Vehicle shutting down pull over what Already what I felt like you know it's Supposed to have uh 50 60 Kow power

Limit but apparently it Didn't uh I did not prepare for this we Only pull 1.3 KW hour from the battery not 4 Kow hour Okay Uh uh do I just pull over here it's Fairly safe Right huh that's it okay the battery is dead DED well Actually we can extrapolate this one Four 1.4 Kow hours since I reset a Little bit late but uh that is not uh 4 KW Hour oh we are stuck okay we are Stuck oh No the agony I did not get what I'm Supposed to get man electric cars are so yeah I'm I'm just giving some uh You know giving some content to the Sun So they can have some more fud they can Make okay well what do I do now what do You do now I have to call my mama In Thailand yeah battery too low a uh look at this I cannot open the Front I'm trying to Stage The Click ba Thumbnail I cannot open the front it's Weird but at least the other 12 Vol Systems are working but uh I better Hurry until the whole car Dies and here's a stage clickbait we Were I can't block marus be my sponsor I Have to stand here no it shut down Before it expected it I sh yeah okay are

We good now let's uh let's Recover oh we have I have a slight Problem here this is not Staged the trunk w't Open it seems like there prob with 12 Volt what what the ecoflow is in here I Need to access the Ecoflow I have to go VI the wa okay not This side this side is not safe I have To go on this Side wait Okay Okay this is bad the screens are Dead which could indicate that the 12 Volt is being oh maybe I should Discharge disconnect this one disconnect Maybe 12 Volt the 12 volt might be low but can I At least open the chge port please Please please please Please I need to open the chge Port if I can't open the chard I have Big problems Now Um I think we actually stuck yeah the The Cher won't Open I might need to try to boost the 12 Volt but uh let me See oh man look in the trunk here there's A lid cover and some high voltage stuff And then um I don't know if you see that Red thing there there's like an arrow or

Something Arc saying it says release so What you're supposed to do is Do this to try to release the CH board I Push it really hard um the chge board is Still stuck and then I also try to open The back door done I don't know what's Up with this but you can usually use the Key fob to open the charge port I should Open the CH it is in this Weird State now where the lid is half Open this I never experienced this Before I spent so much time with Mill Falcon um And also when I ran out the juice with Him before it took a while before the 12 Volt died now we have some serious Problems because I actually did not Prepare I didn't have proper tools to uh Boost the 12vt so I think we need to Call in the Cavalry come on open wait I just forgot you can remove It by Hand yeah oh I haven't done this in a While so this is a nose cone you have to Detou The uh the park sensors and then you Should find the 12 volt somewhere or It's it's here there and then okay let's See if my booster works what can you Just hang here a little bit okay I have This be T thing it's been laying here For years and when I press the battery

Icon it lights up well two only uh I wonder if I could use uh ecoflow to Boost it up So I'm not sure it Blinks I mean it Peeps huh what does it Mean Uh huh as long as it's connected it Beeps if I disconnect it it stops Beeping what is wrong here okay I tried Everything I cannot revive the 12vt the 12vt is a problem here so I open the app and I try to open the Charge port from the app and this is not A spot I would run out of juice is right By the motorway it's quite noisy look Okay I tried to open the charge for from The app but it seems like the uh the car Is is offline it says L SE an hour ago When I had 4% battery left so um if I knew this the first thing I would do Is to open the chart Port um but the 12v needs to also be Alive otherwise we can't can't charge The car so I have no choice but to uh Call in for support the only thing I Need actually help is to get the 12vt Going if the 12 volt wasn't that bad we Would have been charging now it would be Almost on our way back again so Man this is kind of silly because the Lift gate is in a an open semiopen State

Now then the three lights they're also On so um yeah I could try to pop them Open and then pull out the plug but it Means that the 12vt is slowly being Discharge and there's no way to turn Them off fortunately the rest of the car Is out the the OBD also died I also pull Out the OBD adapter so it won't pull Extra but I already okay so I call a Support a beaking Viking they're coming So uh I have Dale Costco here um um Insurance and which includes some uh Rescue and then I Al I only have to pay 500 N50 for they call it EG deductible so I Will show you that note the S so this is the rescue pack I have plus This one right um which involves the BMR Booster thing um maybe I just I haven't Used this for a longest time it's quite Compact it's just a a 10,000 Milah hour Battery and which supposed to do the Trick right and I have Tire well this is Just a portable Compressor I have this one well actually No no I don't need this one this one is For 12 volt no no this is connecting to The solar panel or no was this huh Wait can I charge up the the car's Battery if I hook this one in the 12 Vol How does that Work let's Try Okay and then uh this one is for It's it creates a type two Ian it takes

Type two and then creat a shoe it's for Charging up this one on the type two um Some USB cable yeah also this one is Also for charging the the ecoflow I have Actually toll strap with me I have Lights Here but apparently that's not enough The most important thing is actually the 12vt booster so I I need to get a Proper booster not this little toy here Uh okay but let's try wait what is the Purpose of this thing because this one Hooks into the Ecoflow here it you know this is it's an Input what is this input I know but no No I forgot it's for outut it is for Charging Ecoflow from this yeah this is only for Charging for charging the in flow from The cigarette lighter so I have to wait For uh Viking to arrive then we are Stuck here we are actually stuck here Right now I'm trying to charge up this Thing but it goes dog slow yeah it takes Uh 10 wat so it would take forever to Charge trip this I don't know I tried to Hook it up but it didn't seem to do the Trick so Yeah I've been waiting here for almost An hour now for the rescue Truck yeah um but okay I remember Something okay the screen is dead Everything is dead but um you see here Uh which one again this one this one

This one so this one is uh a USB USBC usba a thing that we plug into 12 volt if I do that it will show me That the voltage is low well actually 11.9 is not that low but it's apparently Low enough for um for the car to shut Down Communications I cannot open the Charge port from the App or the main screen that it's Probably doing this to conserve the Battery so um yeah because cuz I can Still open and close the doors so we Just need to boost it up so behind me uh Well I can't show you I don't want to Open the close the doors too much but um I'm just charging up my tiny 12vt Booster on the ecoflow but it's not Helping I tried to Connected it's not Doing anything so I need to buy a proper Booster I think finally Cavalry has Arrived oh and it's a girl it's a woman I'm going to be rescued by a Lady okay cool let's check it Out okay that's a proper 12vt booster But um uh she knows that there's a Problem with the getting the the ground Here so open it oh it doesn't work oh Okay let's Try what at all Nope so um okay let me see we can check If we can check if the 12vt is getting CH if there's something going on then we Should see it here so now I don't dare To plug it in but if I plug it in now

And if I see oh oh it it seems to be Going up 12 12.2 now it was 12 maybe if You disconnect we can see if it drops it Will Drops but it's not Uh Okay no okay let me see let me see if it Works you might have to it's com oh the Screen is alive open okay okay if the Screen is alive we can try this finally Yeah okay we have to wait for the main Screen yes is very uh slow yeah there Okay okay let's try oh man I it just I Just needed that Booster oh Click Hallelujah you see not to self I Need to buy a proper booster next time Let's see did okay so this thing here From Bea that's junk that's junk Okay let me see it should start charging Now let me check that uh yeah this one Is alive it's ramping up now Finally 1.8 KW yeah so now the 12vt should be Charging now that we are charging the Battery we can see it here uh 2 KW I can Finally fire up this one uh and then I Can hook up OBD Yeah you know the ladyo here is probably Wondering who the heck is this Dude wa let me just I need two Hands yeah now I dare to plug in Everything because I know that now the 12 volts should be charged we can check

Here as in oh 13.6 volt now that's a lot Better that's a lot better absolutely is It disconnected now or no okay still There okay should we try to disconnect It and see what's happen yeah you can Just disconnect now because now I know That the DC DC convert Is then charging up the 12 Vol oh Oops okay let me see so I want to get The OBD live also so I can I can pack This myself um once this this is this This is exactly the problem is that my My booster has two low and two short Cables I need to get some of these yes This is very good yeah yes just it does Oh wow It's wait are the bluey that battery uh Not sure this is well used well oh wow This sounds okay but you see the problem Is that you need to connect to that one And this one and my shitty thing didn't Reach I tried this one which didn't work Just so okay I need to invest in one of These yes You abely she needed only 5 minutes to Do this and that's it and now I can Recover myself that's because you done The job before with taking off the front Yeah I did I did all the pre-work here You did the heavy job yeah okay so um Now we just have to do a little bit of Uh paperwork and we could just let the Millen Falcon charge yeah okay the nice Rescue lady left now uh she had to go to

The next uh person but the troubles are Not over yet first of all the front Won't open and the Trunk I don't know man it it just Suddenly occurred Now I don't know why but I cannot open And close the trunk so it appears to be Open state but there's something wrong With that latch or some like that So uh I have to drive with open trunk But the main problem is That um all my cables charum adapter and CCS adapter is in the front hm we hav Seen this problem before with Optimus Prime I I should have learned from my Mistake never ever put your critical Cables in the Front um yeah it happened many years ago I couldn't open the front in the in the Optimus Prime my mod x and I had to Drive like slow poke over to the next Superer yeah so here I have to clean up Or I get the stuff outside from outside Ins whatever okay the problem is that Here we have supercharger all right That's fine but it's V3 Supercharger And I need the CCS Adapter um now fortunately I know that Um as long as you have a retrofited the Car with the CCS adapter right uh you Know when you have a you need some you Need some Hardware so you can Communicate and whatever then you can

Use any CCS adapter out there so I have To just get over to CL cleavage and then Try to Bor ask someone like hey sorry I'm in a like an emergency here uh can Can I borrow your CCS adapter for 10 Minutes or I don't know how long it Takes um because since I don't have any Cables at all I can't access this I have To get this car over to um uh to elmech And get it fixed but at least at home I Have cables and uh so yeah that That's the problem now and another Problem another concern is that okay so You see we pull 1.4 KW hour below zero And one you start charging you see here Oh okay okay we are getting 2 KW Yeah um and then we get 1.6 Kow into the Battery but we've been charging for a While now and normally this usable rain Will start going up it doesn't go up now the battery must have degraded a Lot when it was sitting still with 0% You know when They yeah during New Year Um so the BMS has been thrown off Uh it thought it know the BMS thought it Knew the the bottom it did not know knew The don't know the bottom so um I just Have to see now what the heck happened Normal remaining us Huh I hope I have enough juice in The Eco flow now good thing I charge it 100% we have to charge it up now as long

As we can we have to empty out the Ecoflow and then try to go for it uh Here um well maybe I shouldn't navigate There because I might it might preheat The Battery we had to drive 5 kilm to cleage No no actually no no it's it's shorter Around 4 km you want to take the Motorway we have to drive around 4 km But we need to charge up the thing so it Will start driving again holy

Electric City Vehicles Cars Power

What You Need to Know About Electric City Vehicles

About Electric City Vehicles

EVs are powered by electricity rather than fuel and have a higher efficiency than traditional gas-powered vehicles. They can also go much further on a charge and are easier to maintain, which reduces long-term ownership costs.

Some EVs are as affordable as an economy car, while others can easily match the range of a crossover SUV. Whether you want to save money on fuel or get a car that has the latest technology and comfort features, there’s an EV for you.

The Renault ZOE is small enough to navigate tight city streets and parking lots with ease, yet it packs in a bunch of smart technology for modern living. Its battery-powered motor delivers instant, punchy acceleration and can recharge at rapid speed. Plus, its regenerative brakes help to put energy back into the electric grid.

If you’re looking for an EV with all the bells and whistles, consider a luxury model. These models offer plenty of room for passengers and cargo, face-flattening acceleration and plenty of miles per charge.

While most automakers offer a wide variety of hybrids, some are now introducing all-electric cars. These are built from the ground up to be an electric-only vehicle, and include the latest features like autonomous driving capabilities. They also offer usable real-world range and charging speeds that rival those of traditional ICE vehicles.
