Reply to "1:1 Scale battery-powered electric engines"

OK, here is my take/example on battery powered vehicles:

From our house to Orlando, FL it is about 1142 miles, and takes about 17 hours of driving, i.e. 2 days with an overnight stay.

For a future electric vehicle, at about 300 miles, then requiring about 8 to 12 hours of recharge, the following should apply:

1) We can't get out of Illinois the first day, then find a charging station for 8 to 12 hours.

2) The second day would be to Chattanooga, TN, then find a charging station for 8 to 12 hours.

3) The third day would be to Valdosta, GA, then find a charging station for 8 to 12 hours.

4) The fourth day would be into Orlando, and another 8 to 12 hours of recharge.

So,,,,,,,,,if my math is correct, our "week long vacation in Orlando"  would be only about 2 days! The rest of the time is driving & recharging. Just my opinion but, being an old guy, I think I'll stick with our internal combustion powered automobiles.
