Can't wait for the power to turn off because there's a full moon in view of my Tesla AutoPower contraption

    I mean, there is the old saying "it's hard to beat the bandwidth of a ute full of hard drives going 100kph down a freeway". I wonder if the same applies to power. Probably not.

      It would take 118 Toyota Highluxes full of Tesla batteries per hour to match a typical high voltage transmission line.

      (Math: 13,800 volts * 1144 amps = 15,787 kW in a transmission line. Highlux capacity of 1400lbs / 55lbs battery = 25 batteries, * 5.3kWh per = 134 kWh. Divide 15787 kw / 134 kWh = 118 per-hours.)
