Tesla Asking Owners to Limit Charging During Texas Heatwave Isn’t a Good Sign

It is already madness to rely on extremely sophisticated tech (current petrol engines all need unique, specially made components) not to mention electric cars have all non replaceable parts or you can source them ONLY from the producer.

Electric add a reliance on the electric grid, so, once that is down are we supposed to die ?

Buy solar, 50k system would last 35 years before it reaches ~82% of it's original output, panels are pretty good these days. If you're handy and know your way around construction, install it yourself, learn yourself, check out DIYmobilesolar or whatever on YouTube, micro controllers + Sun Power panels are the best, idk what the best inverters are.

There's a guy that bought $1,000 of used laptop batteries, he took the wrapping off each one, tested each one, put them in order, and created his own 10KWh powerwall.

Well seeing as how the topic is about blackouts, price should be secondary if one is only worried about having electric. A 50k system would handle two Tesla's or whatever EV, and if you do it yourself, the cost would get cut to less than 25k.
