Sounds like a pretty shitty EV if it dies in 3 hours sitting in a garage.
I mean, Tesla is only one of those two things. And it’s not pretty.
Anon still can’t get out of the car and is trapped tho.
Wasn’t there a problem with Teslas, that you cannot open the doors when the battery is drained?
In that case… mission accomplished (somewhat, but slower and more painful)?!
Every Tesla has an emergency unlock system on all doors. You can always open doors even if the battery is flat.
Yes, every door has a system similar to a trunk release cord. AFAIK It’s hidden, so if you don’t know it exists, you’re screwed. Good luck getting your children out in an emergency.
At least in the model 3 the two front door releases aren’t hidden, in my experience quite often the first time people try to open the door from the inside they actually go for the manual release before they notice the button. The back two doors on the other hand yeah that shits hidden. (Disclaimer I got one before Elon went full mask off I have no love for him or Tesla, just happens to be the car I own at the moment)
The battery is a globe.
Don’t catalytic converters make even ICE cars take forever for this now too? Well, depending on how sealed the garage is
Cats convert CO to CO2, and NOx to N2 (mostly irrelevant for this conversation). In closed space, the exhaust is still deadly, but you are correct in that CO would cause quicker death than CO2 displacing the oxygen.
Relatively low concentrations of CO will cause severe drops in red blood cell’s ability to transport oxygen, then follows unconsciousness and death. CO2 in contrast would require higher concentrations to be effective, as it would only reduce the efficiency of gas transfer in the lungs and lead to slow and painful decreasing blood pH - and a strong panic reflex and the ‘I can’t breathe’ feeling - until eventual unconsciousness and death.
Ah okay, my understanding is that the new way is it literally needs to replace the oxygen in the garage with exhaust fumes so you suffocate instead of the nice “going to sleep” that CO caused. I didn’t know the science behind it though.
CO2 poisoning is very unpleasant while CO poisoning is unnoticed, as is oxygen depletion. That uncomfortable feeling you get when you hold your breath is due to the buildup of CO2, breathing in an atmosphere with too much CO2 for your body to get rid of what you’re producing would feel the same.
Oh hey, the venture brothers did this joke.
teslas are always on… so he’s like full stupid.
Servers with corporate versions of System32 are always on and sometimes crashing, too.
And that is the kind of intellect running things there.
No, that was the higher paid intellect that was cut. The remainder are dumber than that.
