A car should be able to charge another car. There needs to be some kind of standard here.
Or else small portable batteries need to become more common.
Or I could envision a service where, if you run out of electrons, you tap a button and a drone is dispatched with a portable battery to your location. Or maybe the car itself could place the call automatically.
- twothamendment 9y agoHow big would a battery have to be to get a dead EV off the side of the road and 25 miles to a charging station? Can a drone fly a 25 or 50 pound battery? What would the range on the drone be? I'm guessing a tow truck with the ability to charge a car is more likely.
- Florin_Andrei 9y agoWhat if the battery shipped by drone is what powers the drone itself? (I'm just trying to imagine some extreme scenarios, I'm not saying this is The Solution.)
- tkxxx7 9y agoI was going to say, flying, huge capacity battery == drone. It doesn't need to replace the car's battery, just charge it.
