I'll believe it when I plug the thing in and it works as advertised

There is nothing to plug in: it's a chemical non-rechargeable battery, like your average AA or D cell. When it's flat - you throw it away and buy a new one.

Don't hold your breath. Why complicate matters and try to power a car with them.........power a few dozen houses first......should be a lot easier......no size or weight restrictions..

Yah powering a house with this would be at cross purposes. You want a rechargeable battery for that. This would be best for mobile applications like drones or aircraft or automobiles.

How about just to see that it works? Why complicate things.....See how long it lasts..

You don't have much faith in engineers, models, or predictions do you?

Most people are not thinking ahead. Specifically, I refer to what will happen if Trump wins re-election.

To fair, the tech writers of 8 years ago were certain of self driving cars and air taxis in common use by now.

Oh, that's marketing. Predicting the future is hard. Predicting the energy capacity of a battery, that's just chemistry and a lookup table.

Why not run your microwave at home off a bank of Duracell D batteries? Or a table lamp off a dry cell? It’s a one-use sort of thing.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/10/22/then-now-how-republicans-downplay-subpoenas-when-they-target-trump/

There have been no subpoenas. Congress has no judicial authority (that should be pretty obvious) without having to vote on an impeachment inquiry. Pelosi refuses to do that knowing that it will fail, which is why Trump asked her to do it on Twitter. Once the inquiry fails, it ends this impeachment circus.

These "subpoenas" have no legal authority, all of congress knows this being filled with fuckbag lawyers and they just think you're too ignorant to understand their bullshit made up profession of dumb fucking rules and they also know the media will just lie to you.

Now, if these were subpoenas, the people that ignored them can be arrested. Notice they haven't been arrested. I'm tired of having all these people try to make the entire country believe we live in the land of make believe. All this impeachment "hearing" is, is distraction.

Let's all take a deep breath here. Without the tv makeup her face could be mistaken for a waxing gibbious moon.

Shes mine, dick

It's not an official impeachment, there is zero legitimacy to anything the Democrats are doing.

Unapproved entry of this building is a guaranteed 10 years in federal prison for any normal citizen.

Dude, our last president bombed 7 nations over 8 years, brought back slavery to Libya and created the entire refugee crisis you see in Europe today.

The president before that violated the Geneva conventions the US forced the Axis powers to sign after WWII, and murdered between 100,000 and 1,000,000 Iraqis blatantly lying about why as you can see in the Downing Street Memos.

But NOW you're MAD. Haha. Way to take a moral stance, you courageous American you! Let's uphold this bullshit regime of fucking criminals and stick with decorum!!!

Yah I’m super over it. As is the grand majority of the country.

if dry cell batteries were a new invention, Yes I'd test them out in a controlled situation such as a lamp...instead of waiting to install them in a motorized car where there are too many variables...But that's just me and I'm not highly educated. Today, I'd prove how good my new batteries were by comparison testing them against the best battery that exists now (of equal size) WITH A SIMPLE LAMP and prove that they lasted 5X longer.....But again, That's just how I think. I'm sure it makes no sense...

Those dudes got my vote!

I support Direct Action Alinsky Tactics to put pressure on and Question Authority.

George Will and Mitt Romney are weaksauce. Slap back! Love these guys.

Let the House try to Censure them, they're mostly in safe seats - but many Dems voting on it aren't.

What the hell is wrong with you Jazz?

komputodo says

I’m not hating on you. Makes fine sense to someone who has to prove tech to themselves.

If it was Code Pink breaking into SCIF in the W years, he'd be saying any prosecution of them would be Fascist Evil Bushhitler Chimp behavior.

But a bunch of Congressmen angered at the way Schifty set up the Inquiry and is holding the "Evidence" hostage and demonstrating, is very Orange Man Bad.

That's a loaded question lol.

Glad they are finally showing some courage.

Every battery story that gives as its reason for why the technology isn’t adopted yet the excuse of “big auto manufacturers are blocking it” is automatically bullshit.

I’d love to be proven wrong one day but if this battery is as wonderful as claimed, there’s plenty of investors that would gladly give him billions of dollars to develop it and bring it to market.

jazz_music says

These 30 House Republicans blatantly violated House rules and Federal law. By breaking into a closed-door hearing, they should be Censured for their actions.

Bringing recording equipment (cellphones) into a secured (SCIF) room was a direct violation of security protocols and displayed such a gross misconduct that Every. Single. One. should be expelled from Congress following their Censure."

Gaetz is a repeat offender and should DEFINITELY be expelled from Congress

YOU JUST CAN'T MAKE THIS UP!!! Some dimwits actually protect the "Closed Door Meeting"! You know, the partisan type, in which one party decides how to impeach and "not let him tailor his testimony", and to which the other (or the public) is not invited!

Hey, Jazz. You didn't bother to specify: What House rules did House republicans violate by "breaking"? Did you just not bother (possible), or did you make it up (more likely)?

At this point, I would imagine that 'Ukranian Witnesses' are available en masse for the right price to deliver the right message. After all, it is just another profit center.

Seeing is believing does not apply to tech according to quigley...When a claim is made about a new invention, It should be believed without question. All the stories we have heard about magical inventions that never panned out were anomalies...this one is unquestionably true....and besides, it's not cool to question the narrative...At the very least, it's rude.

richwicks says

I'd usually agree, but this one is pure boneheaded politics by the democrats thinking it will tarnish Trump's run for 2020. "Well, well it got so bad that we 'inquired' about impeaching the President, so don't vote for him." So sure, I guess it's distraction to some extent, based on the fact they have no viable candidate or quality platform to beat a philandering NYC real estate and casino developer. Either way, it's stupidity at the highest level.

WaltertheoFlanders says

Congress has no judicial authority (that should be pretty obvious) without having to vote on an impeachment inquiry.

Who ever claimed Congress had judicial authority? Congress is a co-equal branch of the government and by the constitution has been given sole authority to impeach the President. How it chooses to do so is up to Congress, neither the judicial nor the executive branch have any say in this process. The house rules were changed ( by republicans) to give the committee chairs the authority to issue suppeanas. No vote by the House is required. This is just noise to distract from the facts and evidence that everyday look worse and worse for Trump.

But since Trump claims, as his lawyer did yesterday, he has absolute immunity while in office, including if committing mass murder in public the police have no authority to stop him, why bother. In otherwords he is King and infallable. You like King Donald?

Chiromancer says

Remind me of the high crime or misdemeanor Trump committed?

Chiromancer says

You like King Donald?

No. But I do like the way our president triggers some people.

Lol if any of this amounted to a hill of beans, President Trump would already have been impeached.

This is all silly noise at this point. Yet one more in the stream of leftist hysteria’s that have been ongoing since President Trump was elected.
