  1. R2 Camp Kitchen Progress

    It's not boiling. It's actual cooking where it is a problem Boiling they are all more/less the same
  2. R2 Camp Kitchen Progress

    The coil is small and the temperature performance is not that great. There are tests of induction cooktops and duxtop usually performs near the bottom
  3. R2 Camp Kitchen Progress

    Duxtop induction cooktops are mediocre at best. They live on brand recognition only at this point
  4. R2 vs Model Y 70-MPH Highway Range Test (by Out of Spec)

    ABRP is wrong because it uses the wrong efficiency Secondly, the navigation on ABRP is wrong. Just simply map phoenix to las vegas It incorrectly routes through Quartzsite instead of going straight through wickenburg. That means the difference is 43 miles and more than 1 hr difference with...
  5. R2 vs Tesla Charging Curve Comparison

    10kWh is a lot. And it's not less than 10kWh. It is pretty much exactly 10kWh That would put model Y EPA at close to 400 miles
  6. R2 vs Model Y 70-MPH Highway Range Test (by Out of Spec)

    The loss from free spinning an induction motor is very small. Tesla crushes the competition in AWD ranges already There is more penalty from using an induction motor (in AWD mode) vs having a permanent magnet motor. The tradeoff is that it is much cheaper to use an induction motor and no...
  7. R2 vs Model Y 70-MPH Highway Range Test (by Out of Spec)

    One thing also not mentioned is the model Y has a top speed of 155mph. That means they are using tires that are rated for those speeds If you use slower tires and do not drive 155mph you can get better efficiency

    he was going to make the videos anyways and he would get worse results with the other wheels
  9. R2 vs Model Y 70-MPH Highway Range Test (by Out of Spec)

    The EPA numbers include charging losses Look for example how it says 35kWh/100 miles That's the amount of energy you put into the car 301 miles with about 15% charging loss works out to be about 255 miles
  10. R2 vs Model Y 70-MPH Highway Range Test (by Out of Spec)

    We are comparing apples to apples where a lot of manufacturers meet or exceed EPA overall range, even at highway speed model Y performance is only 4% better than R2 but has an efficiency that is much better than that

    But then you raise floor height which they don't like already
  12. R2 vs Model Y 70-MPH Highway Range Test (by Out of Spec)

    The whole reason rivian made 2 layer R1 batteries is because they were wrong about battery density. They lied about ranges they thought were possible. Tesla also though cybertruck would have similar ranges and they never delivered. Rivian delivered by building vehicles with improperly cooled...

    The point is you can't put 100kWh in a vehicle of this size without using a non skateboard battery. Rivian won't do that. They also won't build 2 layer battery packs like they did for R1
  14. R2 vs Model Y 70-MPH Highway Range Test (by Out of Spec)

    There are battery density limits. Tesla cannot put any more batteries in a model Y without building a non skateboard battery pack or using 2 layers of batteries R2 is probably already pushing the limit with 10kWh more than tesla
  15. R2 vs Model Y 70-MPH Highway Range Test (by Out of Spec)

    This brings up a point. The cheapest model Y standard ($40K model) has a range close to 340 miles, beating EPA. I wonder how the $45K R2 does with a 75kWh battery. It might test below 200 miles Testing below 200 miles is really bad. 200 mile range EV with 80% battery window used during road...

    I believe premium RWD juniper does not. Supposedly the longest range according to some tests is the standard range with 18" wheels Highland exceeds EPA but juniper got a little EPA boost from using the brake by wire system. Juniper matches model 3 EPA which is not the case if we ignore the out...
  17. 2027 R2 Performance vs. 2026 Model Y Performance - highway efficiency test (Out of Spec comparison)

    80% capacity (20% degradation) plus never going below 10% and you are at 180 miles. Now imagine winter driving If you want above 300 miles of range for a good amount of time, I think you need a close to 400 mile range EV
  18. R2 vs Model Y 70-MPH Highway Range Test (by Out of Spec)

    clearly not from the model Y where you predicted 262 miles
  19. 2027 R2 Performance vs. 2026 Model Y Performance - highway efficiency test (Out of Spec comparison)

    If you look at the i90 surge and other out of spec races, Tesla is competitive with cars that have much higher 10% challenge scores. Having a similar 10% challenge score or worse is not ideal. Non tesla have access to only 60% of supercharger stations and around 80% of v3/4 R2 will have some...
