    Maybe this video can get a part2

    What were the state of charge and the temperature the batteries were stored at? These variables have a huge impact for shelf life.

    Can u make an update video ….3 years have passed

    In pretty sure true shelf life in the literal sense only applies to batteries that are not being charged. Somewhere along the way someone misinterpreted that and came up with the Hokus Pocus that degradation happens passively – which appears to be a load of BS when you actually go and test old batteries that have been maintained in use. Shelf life is definitely a thing, I've seen many power tool batteries brick themselves when they've been left to self-discharge in cold environments, but for a car that is being regularly topped up (or being left plugged in to 120v), that just won't be a possibility.

    I need to see the cobalt contents of these versus modern ones. 2009 was a different world in sourcing the material components and you could use way more cobalt to stabilize it. Before people realized what was going on with the mining and using as little as possible became a priority. It helps everything though from longer battery lifespan to greater discharge.

    Thank you

    I got some 2005 lithium-ion cells from Dell 1100 2004 laptops and they still hold a charge pretty good.

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Shawn King says:

    I have cells from the 1990's still in use. Sure they are 50% and failing but 30 years what other batteries work that long?

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Thomas Hopkins says:

    Im hunting for the video of where you tested it three years later!!!!! where it at doe!!!! lol keep up the videos!!!

  10. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars John Paul Brotherton says:

    You talk too much !!

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Carlo De Giorgi says:

    ask to Tesla original specs 😉

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Eu* Nu* says:

    Hello!
    Its a good idea to replace The factor batteries în The Smart Fortwo ED3 with some Tesla 18650s to benefit from more kw?

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Steven Harbauer says:

    That's because they use liquid cooling thermal management, right? Because other packs (say Nissan Leaf?) was uncooled, no thermal management….

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars TYPE xxi - WOLF says:

    In Austria is a model S from 2015 with 350.000 km and a range of 402 km in the beginning and 382 km currently.

    Just 900 cycles caused 5% degradiation …
    That car needed other fixes but no new battery.
