The purpose of this forum is to discuss Electric Vehicles, not games.

I was watching something about that on Discovery or NatGeo one and it was one of those things that I thought would have been picked up or paid off before it hit development. I hope by the release that it will make it mainstream. One more benefit that it was saying on the special that I didn’t see in the memo was that with the nano wires, the mechanical breakdown of the silicon would be virtually nonexistent as the wires are too small to really wear down like the current ones do. Either way, it’s great news all around for the EV population.
