I think that depends on where in Europe you’re located. That’s about 80 sqm if I’m not mistaken and it’s definitely on the lower end for a family of four in Germany, though clearly not outrageously small. (+) Our friends from my wife’s part

That really depends on the complexity of the app/environment in question and on the definition of “up to speed”. If you consider it sufficient that the hire can contribute code changes, then a few weeks is probably enough. If having a

Me, my father and my son are making the trip Berlin - Baltic Sea this year (we‘ve made the return three years ago). It‘s about 360 km, so roundabout 200 miles. We‘ll have electric cargo bikes, granted, but the small one is just 5, so he can

The power doesn’t change, but you get 12 systems that each need to dissipate 600Wh instead of a single system that needs to dissipate 7200Wh. You can for example partially buffer the heat if you know that you only need to handle that load f

You math it a little confusing when it come to the cooling required. You scale up the power draw to an hour, but then take your cooling based on that. But each individual battery still only needs to dissipate the heat produced during its ch

It’s still not the case that Snapple started off with something kosher to grab the market share. It just happens that they had a product that is easy to certify. The effort was likely small compared to the advertising benefit.
