This video was brought to you by AED Ro Planner Camp power Marcus be stormberg And B componente okay I fire up the live Stream might as well now that I have Some time to I have to kill some time But uh great news if you look here um Max discharge rate is slowly going up And then here finally normal remaining Is slowly going up it claims minus 5 Point um so we were quite below zero the The battery was uh disc cated Uncalibrated so it had to relearn the New bottom which was uh shallower than I Thought so this is going to be Interesting for the degradation test Because it should mean uh a more accur Actually a more correct and actually Lower kilowatt hour um number and that Means actually even more degradation Than we thought so um yeah now finally This one is going up but uh I don't dare To start driving now I should stay here For I'm not sure uh long enough for yeah Or actually what what it should mean is That we should have now 400 wat hour we Can use but that is simply not enough so Quick MTH if you're going to drive from Here over to supercharger 4 km if you Drive a little bit slow yeah you see we Did manage to average 144 so let's say Um yeah there's a bit uphill also yeah Let's say worst case 150 wat up kilm Then we need at least 600 W hour well Actually that's it uh but okay maybe I

Should get get around 1 KW hour or 1.5 Just to be 110% sure yeah but it is Going up now so that's good um let me Check by the way uh ecoflow uh we have Some energy fortunately this is okay Good for me is that uh I charged both Ecoflow to 100% this one is at 67% this one is at 45% I I don't know why they are so Unbalanced they're not discharging at The same uh level but that should mean That we have uh these two together okay We have roughly 2 KW hour left so it Already Pull I don't know let's say at least 1 And 1/2 Kow hour below below zero or Below the absolute zero or whatever so Yeah uh hopefully we have enough now Otherwise I'll be in deep [ __ ] okay great news I got some tip from Cool silver in the live stream he told Me that there's a manual release lever Here I actually never used it before Even though I I used M Falon a lot you See here you just You just do this one oh sorry sorry I Pull this and now it could seem like I Can open the front I see there is a Little Gap there now you see is there Like a secondary latch I need to wait wa How do I it's half open Now wait how do I yeah yeah I remember I Remember there was a button you have to Press there there there there there you

See um you press this one which is a Secondary latch or you pull it or Something I don't remember um how we do This to open it oh [ __ ] let me see you Can see there's like a safety latch There oh sorry There um but how did I do it Again Hallelujah I have access to the Cables I have type two cable wait I have Type two cable I have CCS adapter Char Adapter UMC I'm going to move all this [ __ ] to the back now and then close the Front again I don't know what the heck Happened to the front suddenly like Every problem that could occur suddenly Just occur now at the same time of Course okay if you see here this is the Manual release button whatever for the Trunk so you're supposed to just pop This open and then there's a wellc thing Here that holds it and then you see here You have a cable a wire you're supposed To pull I tried to pull this But I'm not sure how hard I'm supposed To pull this I feel like I'm going to Break the cable the wire so what there You just put it back we can just drive With a trunk o Open is and then Hopefully get it fixed at the workshop Put back the cover Here see uh this this like this Yeah okay at least we try that One okay this is it the main ecoflow Batteries are down to 1 % but the like

What the heck man the secondary battery Is still at 32% so now it's outputting a Lot from the secondary battery U this is Really weird logic from the ecoflow System but okay uh I think what I should Do now is um you see here um these Numbers uh we should be able to trust Them now it seems like the BMS has been Recalibrated so it claims 40 Kow power Limit it sounds plausible once you go Below zero this is usually what you can Expect uh in then yeah I know from from Experience when I drove model X to Zero When the DMS was not messed up that Usually when you have 40 KW power limit You might have around 10 km of range Left which is plausible but then also Here 1.3 KW hour yeah I think you should Be able to do use this one if we run out Of juice again uh on the way to cleavage Then I'm [ __ ] but okay what I should do either Way is to this discharge the ecoflow What what I okay I should discharge the Eof flow all the way until the sleigh Battery is also dead and then we go for It uh oh charging Stopped yeah that's it Eco flows are Dead DED let me check here we need to Pack and leave but they can't open the Trunk so I have to take everything via The side door try yeah so okay let me Check here oh they actually power off Completely okay let's pack and leave and

See we need to y all it now [ __ ] okay let me see we have supposedly 42.6 KW power limit 1.7 KW hour left uh Can we see cell voltage Here Battery BMS 3.3 Volt I don't know if you can see that I Think it should be fine right the car Should be able to start and then we are Uh supposedly five no no no we around Four kilometers away okay come on oh it Fires up trunk open okay that's Fine okay so first we need to do a Little uh turn Here so I mean it it works for now just The question is just how far can I Drive before it dies Again so you see that we have a little Bit over 40 Kow power limit there And the beeping is just because the Trunk is open so we can't fix that right Now okay so now we just have to hope That the car doesn't die again but I Mean think about this we put In let's say at least 3 KW hour into the Battery after Losses so it shouldn't just die now Otherwise I'm mean deep [ __ ] come on come on slow and steady now Heat are off We have 307 people watching now as I Go okay I don't want to okay now stop Bugging me about the trunk I actually

Remember this in the old days when I did Nimber task why is a car parked over There when we did nimber task there was One time I had to drive with a trunk not Fully closed and it would stop bugging After a while okay come on we have 40 Kow power limit come on come on come on [ __ ] okay so we go downhill now so what I need to do is not not have too high Power output or you know not demand for Too much but this is the problem you see Now I'm driving the opposite direction I Went uphill and I demanded some some Power which probably caused some cells To drop below uh a certain Threshold and then the car just said I Mean the BMS said okay no no no you're Not getting more you know we're shutting Down so you're here I want to be Careful [ __ ] I don't know [ __ ] man I Don't know how much power I can pull Here come on you're not going to die on Me again are you uh just going to go Super slow now okay fortunately this This road here is not that much Traffic I don't dare to take to pull too Much power in case the voltage drops too Much um everything seems normal here Except for that the freaking numbers are Wacky again okay come on come on on Oh so I just um I pull very little power Maybe just Five 5 10 Kow to avoid too much voltage Drop okay go go go go yeah you see uh

When we Go downhill you can slowly build up some Momentum so at least for Tesla they yeah They are like this uh if you try to pull Too much that's probably why I died with A trailer uh also because I was trying To pull too much power going uphill I'm Trying to restart SC Tesla but it's Being buggy now [ __ ] come On go go go go go okay but at least now I see that the the the power limit Doesn't drop that rapidly so hopefully We can make it There if not then I have to try to Charge up the one Plan B if I die again With if the battery dies again I have to Try to get some juice from nearby here And charge up the ecoflow and then come Back here and try to charge it I don't Know and then what the heck happened to Scan my Tesla suddenly like everything That can go wrong today goes wrong Freaking unbelievable man come on come On come on come on okay 50 km hour now Now there's a little uphill towards the End I have to be careful and also at the Main road there might be slightly more Traffic so I also have to be Careful see okay okay try to build up The momentum now see I want to know Exact numbers but the freaking oh Man SC Tesla just died or it's buggy I'll try to bring it alive again but I Just have to focus now you see go go go

Go okay build up build up speed build up Speed get up the hill Here get the hill yeah I'm using around Five 5 10 kilow Only Okay oh oh it's crawling it's dropping a Little bit but but you see now this is How it should be it should drop Gently like slowly slowly slowly towards The end uh what happened before was like It went from 90 Kow yeah actually it didn't that the Thing is that that line didn't even drop It was showing around at the 80 Mark Roughly and then the battery and then The car dried died and was like car Shutting Down oh come on come On Yeah yeah okay okay it seems to be fine Right as long as we can get over here we Are just 1 km away Now [ __ ] come on you're not going to die Over here are you no come On come on come on me the Falcon this is the this is the this the Scary Uphill [ __ ] I'm pulling over 10 kilowatt Now fortunately I had no one behind me Come on come on On I could pull over on this side Because we have uh uh oh I want to we Have also charger there but okay I just

Want to go for the supercharger right I Feel like we can make it there I'm going To take this route here because it's Slightly Safer uh in case the car would die here And then I'll personally carry the e Fall over to the gas station or some [ __ ] Man oh [ __ ] I Need I need to stop and wait for traffic And Yield oh man we're almost there come On what what's up with this traffic Suddenly okay okay okay come on gently Now gently Gently all Right okay come on come On even if it would die around here I Could probably roll over the superchar Supercharger right down there at Cleavage oh man so much heavy action Going on at cleavage Tonight okay go go go Go go Go okay okay okay I think I think we're Safe where where are we um come On Man Man this must be the worst ending Ever even the es8 had a little bit of Problem I could crawl it here yeah I Think we I think we made it here oh [ __ ] Let me find A find an empty slot here somewhere okay

Okay okay there I see one wait is that Is that Legacy automaker plug in the Wrong I was going to use this one no he Using the wrong St oh [ __ ] okay whatever Let let me find a spot okay Okay Here oh [ __ ] I made it here I made it Here oh Man I'm not glad to see this One let's plug it In Oh yeah we're charging getting 54 kilow I don't care that's still way better Than 2 kilowatt at the ecoflow right now Holy macaroni oh [ __ ] come on come on on Let me see Oh and I can finally fire up the heater And oh yeah okay I just noticed now the Consumption Was 149 wat K it's 4.5 km okay I know That from for next time then and it Seems like U maybe the elevation at that Spot I stranded at and over here they Are similar we went a little bit Downhill and Uphill again okay yeah it's Still taking only 72 KW um maybe because I'm sharing charger with someone I'm not Sure but okay Whatever well anyway we're done with the Test so yes we recovered but you see not To self I need to get well actually First I was thinking about getting a 12vt booster with the battery but Actually it's not necessary because I

Have a freaking huge uh eold battery I Will be bringing anyway when I do these Test so what I need to do is buy those Uh Chargers that connects to shuku uh 5 Amp charger and [ __ ] like that uh we Don't need that surge power that those Boosters usually offer that's for Spinning some start motor to start some Fossil car they need 500 amp or 1,000 Amp searge power we just need three amp Like 50 watt or some [ __ ] plug it into The 12 volt let it sit there for five Minutes and then boom so yeah that was My mistake you know so we ended up like This we had to be rescued by uh the Viking lady yeah but all she needed to Do I already popped out the the nose Cone and everything so she just came There took out the cables plug it in Done you know that's like the man's job You just plug it in done yeah it funny It's ironic that um it was a woman who Saved the man Stranded by the Road but yeah so um yeah this is also um Very important lesson if you guys own a Tesla or even if you own an old EV I Know when I do do this zero mile test I Test fairly new cars but once the Battery Ages they might change the buffer many Many new cars I test that have a zal Buffer but I should actually start Testing old cars and see how how they Perform versus actually it's even better

If I retest an old car that I already Tested before a while ago right and then We see do we actually get the same Kilowatt hour buffer below zero that's Actually some ways for some car Manufacturers to high degradation so so When some people say oh you know we Didn't lose any kilometer or after after 2 years and and 50,000 kilom of driving Uh the battery has not degraded at all That is I mean it's not a lie but it's Just an incorrect claim because Everything degrades people also degrades Over time or after some use so um yeah But my advice to you guys is that if you Have old cars don't trust that you can Drive below zero even Teslas also you Know people say ah you can drive 20 km Below zero no no you can't like here I Drove 5 K 10 km or not not even 10 km Below C it's somewhat random um and then What what can you do can you uh can you At least uh deep discharge it and then Charge it up again even that doesn't Help because you know a couple of days Ago I drove this car down to 1% I didn't Dare to go that low right and then I Actually charg it back again to well it Stopped at 98.5% so I already did the whole deep Discharge but it was apparently not Enough you have to go the extreme you Have to go until the car stops then the BMS learns what the bottom is

So yeah um I did this test and I wasted My time wasted my time spend the time so You guys don't have to be stuck by the Road so anyway I think that's going to Be it for now I hope you guys enjoy this Video as always thank you watching and Talk to you Later

EVs have a range of benefits beyond fuel economy. They can be silent and smooth, have a quicker zero-to-60 time than gas-powered cars, and require less maintenance than the traditional engines in conventional vehicles. They also generate fewer emissions, reducing air pollution.

Some governments offer incentives to encourage the adoption of EVs, such as lower purchase taxes or exemption from tolls and parking fees. Others offer charging infrastructure subsidies to make it more convenient for consumers to buy EVs.

While the EV market is still small, manufacturers are making new models rapidly. Tesla, for example, recently announced a big jump in production of the Model 3 to meet demand and help drive down prices. The company also plans to introduce an SUV with a longer range and a lower starting price this year.

Ford and GM are taking different approaches to their transitions to electric cars. Ford gives dealers the option to opt in or out, which could help them avoid a large upfront investment. On the other hand, GM’s approach may be seen as more rigid and risky for some dealers.

Regardless of which model you choose, it’s important to think about how and where you’ll charge your new car. You’ll also need to plan for long trips and find a reliable service network for any needed routine maintenance. Fortunately, a growing number of automakers have robust networks, including both brick-and-mortar authorized dealerships and mobile service trucks.
