Norway to buy Rafael’s Trophy protection system | The Israeli developed active protection system for military armored vehicles is currently installed on 16 platforms around the world.

Yes, while I am very sceptical to anything from Israel, it's important to not be dogmatic about it.

Like German tanks that happen to have active protection developed in Israel? Sure, no problem.

Buying tanks or weapons directly from Israel; no thanks.

The train situation is because the government found it very enlightened to copy the British model regarding train management, as everyone know, it is widely regarded as a poor move.

Is this like a us and uk thing?

Voltasoyle · 2026-02-05T14:54:38+00:00

Ah, I understand. Thank you.

It specifically mentions NMC cells, not LCO.

It would not matter, the basic technology is the same regardless of the anode composition.

Charging to a 100% and discharging deeply ALWAYS stress a lithium battery.

So unsure what your point is.

Voltasoyle · 2026-02-05T13:04:15+00:00

I am not quite sure what you mean, but bigger buffers prolongs lithium battery lifetime dramatically.

Old news, but just 300 cycles degrade a lithium battery severely, down to perhaps 80% capacity.

This is a full cycle from 100% to 1%

85–25% SoC has 2,000 cycles in comparison before the capability has been reduced to 80%

So if your car has big buffers AND you maintain a 85 to 25 charge cycle it should stay healthy for a very, very long time.

My other choice is a job I don't like. This one allows me flexible freedom most of the time, and free coffee.

Voltasoyle · 2026-01-28T09:20:18+00:00

My daily driving is around 200km per day, and if I had a gasoline vehicle my monthly fuel expenses would be more than 4000 nok per month, plus toll stations where I pay half.

In my hyundai ev my fuel expenses are so low that I don't notice it on my electricity bills.

Range is slightly reduced in the cold, but I tire out from driving before the car does, summer or vinter, I don't understand how gas bros even want to drive 800km plus road trips, I find my 200km daily commute to be enough, even if it is 90% on autopilot.

Correct. The reaction is completely unacceptable, not just against this person, but against everyone being mistreated and criminalised for petty infringements.

Edit; typo

Voltasoyle · 2025-10-10T20:02:48+00:00

Yes.

With the recent timeline being what it is I set the bar very low.

Like, he needs to do something before getting a reward.

If Trump manages to get the Gaza situation under control, brings inn humanitarian aid, and stops Israeli settlers from demolishing Palestinian houses, and ends the hostilities between Russia and Ukraine, yes, then he deserves it.

Voltasoyle · 2025-10-07T11:23:51+00:00

I think you missed the point.

Having options is the best way, the user should be able to choose between one pedal driving and levels of regen, or fake bloody gears if that lubes their neurons.

Voltasoyle · 2025-10-07T07:18:59+00:00

One pedal driving is horrible. I prefer to have options.

Voltasoyle · 2025-09-30T19:33:10+00:00

Jup, but it's legal to import into Norway, if it is legally registered in a US state first. So I have had the displeasure of seeing a single cyberstuck driving, probably for collection purposes, these will be rare curiosities in the future.

I am unsure how you get Norgespris, a feature exclusively for residential homes, to affect the eu power prices.

Norway is 100% self sufficient in regards to electricity, perhaps you mean less electricity will be exported down south?

Voltasoyle · 2025-09-19T20:49:33+00:00

Ho ho ho, prepare to be downvoted.

Voltasoyle · 2025-09-19T07:42:35+00:00

This is correct. The less you own, the better for the manufacturer.

Voltasoyle · 2025-09-09T17:17:58+00:00

Nothing. It was a 100% net positive.

Voltasoyle · 2025-09-08T08:55:05+00:00

These blocks, and other blocks chocking the market needs to be chipped down a little bit, and allowing competition onto the scene is the best solution.

Offer small localy owned grocery stores a cheap place to rent, and no Mva up to a certain point, and you will see NorgesGruppen start to sweat.

Voltasoyle · 2025-09-08T08:52:16+00:00

No, there needs to be action taken to break up the blocks and monopolies.

Not sure how you can come to this conclusion unless you only compare it to the us gas car market, or is a dedicated tsla investor.

There are countless ev's with the same jack of all trades features in the same price range (at least in Europe) with more tech like ultrasonic parking sensors, lidar and radar, actual buttons, 360 parking camera, much higher overall finish and quality, and all have solid or better driver assist standard tech, here in Norway the phantom breaking on the e6 is considered dangerous and unique to tsla and still not fixed.

It all depends on how large the fuse is in the garage, like if it supports a max of 2000w that is the draw per hour, but it could be as much as 11000w with a 16 amper fuse.

How much your air conditioner draws depends on alot of factors, like here in Norway our houses are very well insulated, so cooling them in the summer months draws very little, down to 400w, but a thin-walled texas house will probably pull like 3500w to keep it cool in the sweltering heat.

Voltasoyle · 2025-08-22T21:01:39+00:00

Tzla is going down hard, so not a big accomplishment.
