I like how you just glossed over how you built an electric car, now I want to hear more about that

[willgilliam]

8-Bit Guy: I built my own electric car, and purchased serveral more, lets talk about that!


Me: No no no!!! Talk about the homebrew one!!!

Fun fact about chademo:
The name is derived from the Japanese phrase O cha demo ikaga desuka, translating to English as "How about a cup of tea?", referring to the time it would take to charge a car.

9:55 "Since there are RV parks literally everywhere" - now that's a very Texan thing to say, lol

[andydoane]

From being related to Dimebag Darrell to being on the news for building his own electric car, the 8-Bit Guy is full of surprises.

I wanted to hear more about the Eagle Talon!

Super Charging stations A and B parking spots - reminds me of urinals the men's bathroom. :-)

I just noticed the number plate on your homemade EV starts with BYD, which is now one of the largest EV manufacturers.

[ValdVincent]

I did not know you converted a car, this now needs to explained.

[NethTech]

You shouldn't shy away from videos on EV's. Id love to hear more about the Eagle Talon

[RabbeSandelin]

Please let us have a one hour "The Eagle Talon Story" video.

Loved this vid, thanks! Miss your "is it obsolete?" series, where you tested 10 years old or older stuff for daily use. And need more 8bit keys! Thanks!

Just as a note: 14-50 only exists if the RV park has 50 amp hook-ups. Some have it and some don't. So check before hand :)

I'm live in Thailand and my country didn't have lot of charger (For now). But I'm going to buy my first car (Electric Car) for sure

[boemioofworld]

"I started with electric car back in 2007..."
me: wow, what electric car could work back in these days
"when I build my own..."
me: 0_0

13:14 - Today I learned that Tesla Superchargers have the same etiquette as urinals. 🤣

[florianthesnow]

I never would have imagined charging speed being measured in mph, but it actually makes sense!

[javierortiz]

So, the Tesla charges better with DC?, his ghost must be swearing somewhere in the afterlife lmao.
