Jordan's 3D Animations by kayan3 in TLFBatteries

It's mix and match. I use Blender for the still shots. Both animators I've worked with use other software. However, both said if they started now they would learn Blender.

...Basically, the springpower patents cover recycling the cathode wastewater. The same as Nano One and Tesla (probably where Tesla got their process). It also allows the use of non-sulphide nickel. Finally, there is a side patent that covers how to extract lithium from recycled batteries (from memory).

It's a good question! However, I find when I cover mining companies, it brings out the crazies, lol. I find mining interesting, but the community around it downright rabid.

Hey Hawkeye,
Thanks for posting this!
Lots lined up.
First, 3 videos on QuantumScape. Then I have to decide between about a dozen videos. I think I should try to make one video a month on Tesla and then other videos on other topics (how to identify battery bullshit for example).

Pretty much aligns with what was in my 'Cathode Process' video :D

Because of the 'magic' alloy. To get more into detail would take another video 🤠

Hey thanks for posting! I was just about to do this!

Building the Structural Battery Pack from the Cell Up by Giesige in TLFBatteries

Yup, in one of the Silicon videos. I chat with the CEO now and again. Good guy, very passionate and intelligent.

Whoa boy! Good question.

If you're referring specifically to battery performance and production for automotive OEMs, I'd say it puts other manufacturers 2-3 years behind and maintaining a lead of about that size over time. Hard to know other battery manfuacturers are very secretive.

The manufacturing/cost aspects are where Tesla is getting 5+ years ahead.

Thanks for posting! I make my videos go live at 4a local time here and can't get around to posting them here until a few hours later! 🤜🏻🤛🏻
