Tesla Saves the world - again - Page 2 - GoFuckYourself.com

videobunch · 05-04-2015, 07:56 PM

Odd it is making news now. I have solar panels on my house from Solar City and had them add a battery with it 2 yrs ago which ended up being a Tesla battery. It is designed to only runs our first floor when the power goes out but I have left if off and it will run en-defiantly as the solar panels are able to charge the battery while I am running off of it even if there is no sun for 5 days. Being in San Diego, 5 days of no sun is not heard of. I am not sure if this is a solution everywhere, but in San Diego where we get alot of sun it was a no brainier for us.

When they first installed it I asked if I could get 3 more batteries but at the time they said it was not a solution to run off. Guess that changed.

FYI Elon Musk's is on the board or something of Solar City is how they were able to use the battery.

Elon Musk is a snake oil salesman. He didn't save the world before and he hasn't saved it this time either.

mark prince claims powerwall saved the world- the only way that would happen is if people buy it. but even then its limitations keep it from being a panacea to the energy issue, most adults know that, as shown in this thread.

but mark prince ain't buying one, he's not even buying the lean & mean rig i planned out for him. he's saving up for gold HDMi cables and inefficient refridgerators.

2MuchMark · 05-06-2015, 08:45 AM

Dynamo, I've had enough of you.

The new Tesla battery is important because it is significantly cheaper than other batteries, and can be mass produced. It's general goal is to speed up the transition to home made solar and wind power, and to power your house at night from stored solar power instead of relying on GRID power which is generated by coal in many locations around the world.

And don't forget, this is the first generation of the product too, and its being made BEFORE the new Gigafactory goes online.

This is also before other competitors have entered the market, which they will. And, Tesla as open-sourced the technology too, just like they did with their cars, so anyone can make batteries like the Tesla battery without being sued for it.

Each Tesla battery is also connected to the Internet, and knows the energy costs of your utility company. That means it can charge itself when your rates are the lowest, then let you use that energy instead of the utility company when the rates are the highest. You can even sell your unused energy back to the utility company and make a profit.

There are plenty of problems in the world, and plenty of innovation that can help put a dent in those problems.

But instead of considering the facts, or even the basic ideas, you rip open your asshole and take a giant shit on the idea, on everyone involved, and everything those people may have done.

I'm no psychologist, but you strike me as someone who is very depressed. You are so depressed that the only way you can make yourself feel better is to try to drag everyone down to your level. You don't see any good or beauty in the world, and you certainly do not acknowledge anyone at all, including Nasa Scientists or Entrepreneurs like Elon Musk, who are doing something good. You hate absolutely everyone and everything. I assume, you hate yourself too.

Pretty sad.

I'd wish you good luck, but I know you'll ignore it. So instead, I'll just say Go Fuck Yourself.

dyna mo · 05-06-2015, 08:56 AM

you're an idiot fan boy mark prince. it's not a cheaper battery than batteries on the market.

and there are plenty of competitors in the solar energy and storage market, i've bought plenty of equipment from many of them.

it's unfortunate you equate living in the real world and dealing with and solving real world problems as being depressed, but that just proves yet again you live in a unicorns and rainbows fan boy fantasy world. you spin up excuses for why you can't embrace alt energy while pointing your finger at others and tell them they should, all while thinking the answer is arguing about whether or not the science is settled.

you're part of the problem.

and again, stop trying to cast yourself as a science guy when you can't even spell NASA.

dumbfuck.

False - this may have been true a couple years ago but you can store energy cheaper than this now. Their numbers are at industry standard and they are just one of many not exactly breaking new ground here.

False - the only real people it helps is the people that own their cars. Cost of power to charge the cars battery is higher at peak times etc. The battery pack helps keep this cost low.
Also helps you charge your car should your power go out etc. Basically it helps them solve some issues with ownership of their cars. Selling/Marketing it to everyone helps increase their production volume.
It also helps reduce the demand on the grid for when more people start charging their cars, much like the issue in the summer when everyone turns on their AC if enough people plug their cars in this demand will have its own down sides that the batteries help reduce.

True - Even with all the somewhat false statements above; just having the marketing/brand/etc.. power that Tesla brings to the table may help increase the number of people considering EV's now that they see a solution to some ownership problems. This can also be said for bringing more people around to the idea of solar power. And TBH the more money Telsa makes the more it can put back into the company, R&D, new car models, increas production and possibly lower their price points. They do after all make a nice EV that is usable as a daily driver for most, but most can not afford it.

Ok, good - nice find... but it doesn't exactly contradict what I said. It's good that Tesla is doing this, but they are not the first company to offer batteries, and of course there will be competitors like Samsung as the article says.

The message is : Cheap batteries that capture cheap energy is a good idea, regardless of who makes it. Am I wrong?

But isn't helping their production volume a good thing? More volume could mean reduced costs, no?

But I would disagree and say that it's not just for people who drive EV's. Since everything in your house is electric (except maybe for the a gas furnace), why not power it from batteries where possible too? And why not charge those batteries from clean sources where possible?

That's right. It helps reduce the demand. It helps shift customers from requiring electricity during those high demand times.

Of course! Agreed. This is actually brilliant marketing and business. The battery brings with it a "coolness" factor, and I even heard someone describe it as a "lifestyle choice". This will of course help Tesla sell more cars.

Agreed. Makes total sense to me.

EonBlue · 05-06-2015, 10:35 AM

Mother nature already perfected the art of capturing solar energy and storing it hundreds of millions of years ago. It's called photosynthesis and the food chain. Ultimately natural gas, oil, coal and any other biomass are a part of that system. Wood, fossil fuels and every living organism on the planet is effectively a battery for stored solar energy.

But the greentards don't want us to use any of that stored solar energy because it releases the life giving and essential gas CO2 which they have classified as a pollutant so they can make money off of regulating it.

Elon Musk doesn't want you to use fossil fuels so he can guilt and trick you into buying his overpriced and ineffective "technology".

TheSquealer · 05-06-2015, 10:46 AM

I've read this thread and articles about the batteries. Seems Tesla didn't save the world at all... or anything close to it. But it made one Canadian happy... though you rarely see an angry Canadian, so i'm not even sure thats useful.

Goddam you're stupid.

Since I switch driving EV, I now use clean energy instead of dirty energy for my commute. Clean energy is so cheap in Quebec that Solar isn't quiet viable, yet. I said this earlier. I do plan to get solar in the future when it becomes more affordable.

And also, you fucking moron, I already said in this thread, that I JUST MOVED HERE. So stop trying to lie to everyone else in this thread in a stupid attempt to make yourself look better. You just make yourself look even more stupid than you already are.

But since you are bringing it up, I have a challenge for you, tough guy.

I don't believe you have solar panels. Please go outside, take a picture of yourself, in front of your house, with your solar panels in the shot. Post it here on GFY with a second picture of you from any trade show so we know you're not just posting a picture of some random person, and then finally, post your address and zip code so we can see your house and panels from Google Earth.

I did the trip to Radisson/La Grande/etc.. last summer was a great road trip. (I'd suggest you rent an SUV it's a long rough road) But I'd say the impact the dams had were not exactly small.
Hydro power still produces GHG such as CO2.
Gross GHG emissions of reservoirs in the James Bay area fluctuate around 30,000 tonnes of CO2 equivalent per TWh of generated power.

I'd say the current best long term solution would be a mix of solar and Thorium Molten Salt Reactor pods.

Thats true and actually this is something I only learned about a year ago. I forget the reasons - something about the plant life at the bottom?

There are always trade offs when it comes to energy production. The best we can hope for is to get the most energy for the smallest carbon footprint, or least amount of damage, etc.

And when that can't happen, at least, to clean up the damage left behind. This is something I wish big oil would be better at. They have accidents like oil spills and train derailments, but the clean up seems to be piss-poor. The golf of Mexico is a good example.

what you are actually looking at is the solar charger for one of the recent solar energy collections systems i've drawn up and installed. Is is the WIndyNation 30L, I am comparing it to other solar chargers I am experienced with to rate its efficiency.

As you can see by the reading, I've already collected 5400 Ah through this system. ANd I am currently (get it - currently) sending full charge to the battery storage bank via the PV.

Yup, read that too. That's too bad! But then again, its brand new, so maybe in 5 years it will get more interesting. The regulations and pricing here in Quebec also create weird roadblocks to Solar and batteries.

All I did was ask you to prove you owned one, that's all. You didn't post your pictures or your house or your coordinates as I asked, but thats ok, I'll take your word for it that you own one.

Congrats on your purchase.

For me, for the record, I would like to go solar one day. For now though I will wait until it becomes more economical feasible. (Power in Quebec is clean, renewable, cheap etc already, blah blah blah).

Hi Jel,

Sure, ok I see your point.. but then again the guy attacks me non-stop. I figured it was time to get him to prove a little of what he claims, that's all.

TheSquealer · 05-06-2015, 02:55 PM

Personally, I've been around for a while. Traditionally he's done little more than spam his shit, post cam girls and make chit chat in hopes of garnering sig views.

In the last few years he seems to have taken a turn and became bitter and angry and he acts out constantly, is a little more vicious/hostile and insulting towards others and a little more erratic in his behavior. More than anything, he seems to be becoming increasingly irrational - it suggests manic depression or bipolar disorder or maybe just stress from something.

As a passive observer, I'd say something is going on in his life that is affecting his mental health and has been for some time now.

Robbie · 05-06-2015, 02:57 PM

I really like what the Tesla company has done with their technology on cars. I was amazed that a relatively small company could do what Detroit auto makers STILL can't seem to do right.

And I'm also thinking that "yeah"...they probably are going to change the game on home solar as well.

But then...Mark Prince comes in here and starts up...and it almost turns me AGAINST the whole damn thing.

That's the part you aren't getting Mark.
Have you ever encountered one of those fervent religious nuts? They are so damn obsessed with "saving" you that they come on too strong and exaggerate everything.

And in the end it makes you NOT want to hear what they have to say.

That's kind of what you're doing on GFY with some of your posts.

How about this...chill a bit. And maybe post a business thread. You are still in this industry right?

Well if you are...how about a thread that explains what you do, what new stuff you have done for what you're selling, etc., etc.

Hell, you might get some nice business out of it...and you wouldn't have to keep arguing with everyone.

1 week and Tesla's Powerwall battery already sold out till mid-2016

It's barely been a week since Tesla unveiled its Powerwall energy system, which scales from residential houses to massive gigawatt-hour utility scale. Not enough time for much to happen, right? Well, apparently people have been waiting for something like this and there's a lot of pent up demand. On its earnings conference call, Elon Musk mentioned that they already received 38,000 reservations (the Powerwall will start shipping this summer) for the home system and 2,500 reservations for the much bigger, commercial-scale battery systems. That's a lot in less than a week (more reservations have no doubt come in since the Tesla call on May 6)!

Barely a week after Tesla's Powerwall battery was announced, it's sold-out to mid-2016 : TreeHugger

I have solar panels on my house from Solar City and had them add a battery with it 2 yrs ago which ended up being a Tesla battery. It is designed to only runs our first floor when the power goes out but I have left if off and it will run en-defiantly as the solar panels are able to charge the battery while I am running off of it even if there is no sun for 5 days. Being in San Diego, 5 days of no sun is not heard of. I am not sure if this is a solution everywhere, but in San Diego where we get alot of sun it was a no brainier for us. When they first installed it I asked if I could get 3 more batteries but at the time they said it was not a solution to run off. Guess that changed. FYI Elon Musk's is on the board or something of Solar City is how they were able to use the battery. __________________ Kevin www.VideoBunch.com Email - Kevin @@ Aned .com or Team - videobunch

The new Tesla battery is important because it is significantly cheaper than other batteries, and can be mass produced. It's general goal is to speed up the transition to home made solar and wind power, and to power your house at night from stored solar power instead of relying on GRID power which is generated by coal in many locations around the world. And don't forget, this is the first generation of the product too, and its being made BEFORE the new Gigafactory goes online. This is also before other competitors have entered the market, which they will. And, Tesla as open-sourced the technology too, just like they did with their cars, so anyone can make batteries like the Tesla battery without being sued for it. Each Tesla battery is also connected to the Internet, and knows the energy costs of your utility company. That means it can charge itself when your rates are the lowest, then let you use that energy instead of the utility company when the rates are the highest. You can even sell your unused energy back to the utility company and make a profit. There are plenty of problems in the world, and plenty of innovation that can help put a dent in those problems. But instead of considering the facts, or even the basic ideas, you rip open your asshole and take a giant shit on the idea, on everyone involved, and everything those people may have done. I'm no psychologist, but you strike me as someone who is very depressed. You are so depressed that the only way you can make yourself feel better is to try to drag everyone down to your level. You don't see any good or beauty in the world, and you certainly do not acknowledge anyone at all, including Nasa Scientists or Entrepreneurs like Elon Musk, who are doing something good. You hate absolutely everyone and everything. I assume, you hate yourself too. Pretty sad. I'd wish you good luck, but I know you'll ignore it. So instead, I'll just say Go Fuck Yourself. __________________ Custom Software \| Server Management \| Integration and Technology Solutions https://www.2much.net

Seems Tesla didn't save the world at all... or anything close to it. But it made one Canadian happy... though you rarely see an angry Canadian, so i'm not even sure thats useful. __________________ .

It's called photosynthesis and the food chain. Ultimately natural gas, oil, coal and any other biomass are a part of that system. Wood, fossil fuels and every living organism on the planet is effectively a battery for stored solar energy. But the greentards don't want us to use any of that stored solar energy because it releases the life giving and essential gas CO2 which they have classified as a pollutant so they can make money off of regulating it. Elon Musk doesn't want you to use fossil fuels so he can guilt and trick you into buying his overpriced and ineffective "technology". .

Also I didn't ask you to climb onto your roof. Just a picture of you in front of your house with the solar panels in view is fine. I ask for a photo of you with anyone from any trade show so that I can match your photos to you. Otherwise you could post a picture of anybody in front of any house. __________________ Custom Software \| Server Management \| Integration and Technology Solutions https://www.2much.net

Traditionally he's done little more than spam his shit, post cam girls and make chit chat in hopes of garnering sig views. In the last few years he seems to have taken a turn and became bitter and angry and he acts out constantly, is a little more vicious/hostile and insulting towards others and a little more erratic in his behavior. More than anything, he seems to be becoming increasingly irrational - it suggests manic depression or bipolar disorder or maybe just stress from something. As a passive observer, I'd say something is going on in his life that is affecting his mental health and has been for some time now.

Robbie Leaner, Meaner, Faster Industry Role: Join Date: Aug 2002 Location: Vegas Posts: 20,959	I really like what the Tesla company has done with their technology on cars. I was amazed that a relatively small company could do what Detroit auto makers STILL can't seem to do right. And I'm also thinking that "yeah"...they probably are going to change the game on home solar as well. But then...Mark Prince comes in here and starts up...and it almost turns me AGAINST the whole damn thing. That's the part you aren't getting Mark. Have you ever encountered one of those fervent religious nuts? They are so damn obsessed with "saving" you that they come on too strong and exaggerate everything. And in the end it makes you NOT want to hear what they have to say. That's kind of what you're doing on GFY with some of your posts. How about this...chill a bit. And maybe post a business thread. You are still in this industry right? Well if you are...how about a thread that explains what you do, what new stuff you have done for what you're selling, etc., etc. Hell, you might get some nice business out of it...and you wouldn't have to keep arguing with everyone. __________________ -Robbie ClaudiaMarie.Com

Not enough time for much to happen, right? Well, apparently people have been waiting for something like this and there's a lot of pent up demand. On its earnings conference call, Elon Musk mentioned that they already received 38,000 reservations (the Powerwall will start shipping this summer) for the home system and 2,500 reservations for the much bigger, commercial-scale battery systems.
