PG I own a Tesla and have shares in BMN but I know there is only one winner in grid storage.
If it ever gets out that Tesla batteries are being replaced readily in only a few years or catch fire then I can see a big drop in the share price even though I want them to do well. all IMO
Maybe he meant to say he turns tricks for ponies?
Exactly that Alfa, they have a Shlt load of lithium as well as tin and tantalite. So win win win and win!
no you prat everyone who is a real investor in Bushveld Minerals also has a stake in Afritin Mining dontcha know.
PG filtered.
PG.. If you're invested in BMN you have obviously done the research and your own risk assessment and concluded it is worth the investment for whatever timescale you feel is appropriate for whatever returns on your investment you are comfortable with knowing there are absolutely no guarantees...so why the negativity?
If you are not invested because you feel the risk v returns are not right for you...why on earth are you wasting so much of your precious life on here because you're missing other possibly much more suitable investment buy ins elsewhere.
One day you may wish you hadn't wasted that time...
They wouldn't even let me take my VRFB on as cabin baggage.
Gherkin,
The last time I was on an aeroplane I was forbidden from charging my mobile phone Because of the fire risk from lithium ion batteries.

They use Li ion batteries in satellites don't they?

Today's SP in BMN would be where it is today irrespective of anyone on the BB posting every day.
Incorrect!! The immense amount of research posted on here backed up by facts has kept many PI's from selling over the last few months especially when confidence was at a low.
Myself included is thankful to the regular posters here!
As others have said, I feel like you are making my augments for me PG, so ill just leave you to it
Then why are you here on bb?
He says whilst clearly 'wasting' his time on a BB.
Yes indeed my good man, and you are here educating us! And yet, strangely enough, not on the Tesla boards ameliorating their knowledge!
I guess some people just get lucky.
Oh and if we want to talk insecurity, your 'serious investor' self actually made an account here just to set us all straight regarding lithium batteries. Despite the fact that you 'dont do BBs'.
Have some confidence in your Li, PG!
We truly are blessed!
So, you haven't answered my question, aside from supercilious put downs. Why don't you go onto Tesla forums to promote the V side of batteries? Because from experience, most Tesla people only see Tesla.
We have seen it all before here.
Ps a great way for the board to start a weekend Alfa that is a great read
PG your argument about lithium batteries being left on charge overnight is a good point. Most tesla fires have occurred while on rapid charge. The quicker the charge transfer seems to increase the risk. I also believe barring a bath with now have a limited use for candles until we have a fire at a lithium storage battery?????
A classic case of " you don't know your doing"
As I said earlier with the UK having no experience of extinguishing lithium-ion on the planned scale.
It will take a disaster and stable door legislation to sort it it out,and someone could be facing a Culpable manslaughter charge if the worse case scenario happens.
PG.. The market is enormous and there will be plenty of room for many different energy storage methods and it will probable settle down to proximity and availability of resources.
We will be in a sorry state if the World's energy storage is beholding to one company/technology like Tesla.
As I posted a couple of days ago, light weight solar panels are now coming to market and these can be installed on existing commercial buildings where the roof wasn't strong enough to support the heavier glass panels... The adds a huge new retro fit market for both solar and battery storage.
In France all new commercial building must generate a certain percentage of their energy usage.
Safety will be a big factor in decision making but so will risk assessment together with costs, ease of installation, maintenance, life span, expansion, end of life replacement/recycling and in some of these areas VRFBs will be a better choice.
We have a 4x4 and a sports car... I rest my case!!!
Right well thanks for gracing us with your knowledge. Must have taken some time out of your 'serious' investing..
If you want to see how far a cloud of toxic HF gas would spread look at the last image here:- https://www.favershameye.co.uk/post/cleve-hill-batteries-included
Haha... Just thought I'd stir it up a bit...
And this post from a forum in 2017 and the reference is to Richard Hammond super car crash after Swiss hill climb challenge where battery kept reigniting over a 3 day period.
'Firefighter here. I attended a Tesla training in which they actually rolled over one of their $100,000+ cars and showed us what's what. They build in battery and electrical disconnect points for us to use during the extrication (read: destruction) process, but when a car is as badly damaged as Hammond's, they may not be accessible. The best bet is to enter a defensive mode, let it burn and just focus on keeping the fire from spreading to exposures (vegetation, structures, etc.). This is one of the many aspects of modernity that's making us rethink the "smash and spray" mentality of the past. I wouldn't say we hate electric cars because a good fireman likes a good challenge, but the amount of resources and time they consume (5 days?!?) make them expensive. If you want to talk about scary for firefighters, let's talk hydrogen fuel cells...'
So the question is how man tow trucks would be happy to remove an EV with badly damaged battery pack which had caught fire from the accident site...
cont...
So the amount of HF gas produced by a single car fire, whilst clearly deadly in an enclosed space and also potentially deadly in a not so enclosed space such as a breezy above-ground car park, is perhaps something that can be dealt with. However put the equivalent of 13,000 electric cars in the same system (100MWh) and you have a potential cloud of deadly gas that would rival the Bhopal disaster in which 20,000 people died (https://www.bhopal.net/what-happened/that-night-december-3-1984/the-death-toll/)
