There are no capacitors in RC cars, just the battery rate.drcarlos wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2019 6:24 pmNot up on the tech but for burst power they probably have some beefy capacitors that will buffer any delay in production. In fact as BEVs are effectively scaled up rc tech they probably also have some beefy buffer capacitors too like their smaller cousins too as generally over stressing lithium batteries is not a good thing.NotoriousREV wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2019 5:44 pmFCEVs don’t use batteries, they generate power on demand by burning hydrogen.Barry wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2019 5:22 pm
I think you're giving them a little too much credit there tbh. Even if hydrogen is the next big thing they'll still rely on private investment to take the plunge first.
And folk are talking like FCEV will replace BEV when in effect they'll just become the same thing, fuel cell cars will still need a battery to act as the storage buffer, only a smaller one needed. Same rare materials needed though.
Mito is correct, the larger hydrogen cars will need a PHEV sized battery to even out the peak demands but unlike a PHEV you won’t need to plug the car in to charge the battery.
