As employee number seven at Tesla, Gene Berdichevsky was instrumental in solving one of its earliest challenges: the thousands of lithium-ion batteries the company planned to pack into its electric sports car caught fire far more often than manufacturers claimed. … Continue reading →

chlorpheniramine ARIPiprazole Using chlorpheniramine together with ARIPiprazole may increase side effects such as drowsiness, blurred vision, dry mouth, heat intolerance, flushing, decreased sweating, difficulty urinating, abdominal cramping, constipation, irregular heartbeat, confusion, and memory problems. What can you not take with … Continue reading →

Hydrogen Fuel Vehicles cannot succeed. Fuel stations are bleeding money, so there is no incentive to privately purchase infrastructure. To make them on par with ICE, you would need 120,000 in the US… will never happen from the government. Therefore, … Continue reading →

Simply explained in geographical terms, D4 (short for ‘ Dublin 4’) is a postal district in the Southside of Dublin encompassing Ballsbridge, Donnybrook and Sandymount (and less affluent Ringsend and Irishtown). More complex are the socioeconomics. The name itself has … Continue reading →

The short answer is no, you cannot simply parallel your 12-volt battery with the new 6-volt batteries (in series). You can only parallel batteries that are exactly the same brand and chemistry, including age. Otherwise it will result in unbalanced … Continue reading →

Lithium batteries smell of Bubble Gum, when they leak. That’s a warning secconds before they burst into an explosive like fire… Lithium batteries are like small handgranades. What do lithium battery fumes smell like? When a battery is charged, some … Continue reading →

Piercings don’t pose problems; it’s the metals they’re made from that could cause trouble during surgery. If a piercing is made of implant-grade titanium, the likelihood of its conducting electricity is minute. However, you can’t know for certain the quality … Continue reading →

That’s because the button-sized devices, if swallowed, could become lodged in the esophagus and cause a potentially dangerous injury due to a chemical reaction between the esophagus lining and the battery’s remaining current. Is it dangerous to swallow a small … Continue reading →

Primary manufacturing The first step in making alkaline batteries is to manufacture cathode which involves granulation of manganese dioxide, black carbon (graphite) and electrolyte(potassium hydroxide in solution) and then the mixture is pressed into hollow cylinders called preforms. What makes … Continue reading →

Some of the major materials used in making a most of the Tesla vehicles are: Aluminum (body and chassis) Boron steel (reinforcing the above aluminum) Titanium (underbody) Are Tesla made of plastic? The raw materials that go into the interior … Continue reading →

Nitric acid is a poisonous clear-to-yellow poisonous liquid. It is a chemical known as a caustic. If it contacts tissues, it can cause severe damage, such as burning, on contact. This article discusses poisoning from swallowing or breathing in nitric … Continue reading →

The circles of recycling. Pyrometallurgy burns spent batteries into a slag, and hydrometallurgy dissolves them in acids. Both aim to extract cathode materials. The ideal is direct recycling, which would recover the cathode intact. What is done with lithium batteries … Continue reading →
