Why don't we let Better Place follow their current timetable? They are still a small, new company that has to learn the business. After they learn how, they will be able to scale larger and faster. A problem this size needs manageable timetables and capability development.

He is right though. That is VERY basic robotics. I work with robots and if a robot can place a 3 gram part with in a few thousandths of a millimeter of where you want it, it sure as hell can place a big battery in the bay under your car.

Regarding the "Agassi's Electric Car Grid" interview you should do one with ThyseenKrupp engineers that developed the battery pack recharge & exchange station for EVs. Its faster than filling up 10 gallons or more of traditional fuel.

Lets do something about it and start OSWH: Operation Spam the White HouseTell everyone you know to send a message to the White House because you can indeed contact them on their website and contact them without emailing them. The title should be uniform: Electric Infrastructure Now.I can't do much, but I can tell someone who can do something about it to do a lot. Spread the word of this project around. It needs to happen.Or tell the Republicans that its the way to save their image...

its UNWISE to stop the "massive disruption" of the carbon economy.

vandalism at the charging spots would be at LEAST handled the same way as vandalism at a gas station. At MOST it will be handled the same way that vandalism/tampering cell phone towers is handled (shooting on sight).

It's refreshing to see Shai still at it and making progress with Project Better Place. It would be tragic if none of our American car companies see the future and go electric. Oh well, if they don't someone else will. Let's just hope it's not just the Chinese or some other country who takes advantage of this amazing and world changing opportunity.

its a good idea but I'm pretty sure that they thought of the easiest way and thought that was it

Talk about complicating things needlessly, this 'problem' is trivially easier to solve than these guys think:1). Since power plants just 'idle away' from midnight to seven a.m, if people recharge their cars then, it will vastly increase the efficiency of EXISTING infrastructure, and overall, lower people's rates.2). The HUGE TECHNOLOGY required to accomplish this great feat is a $8 timer at K-mart to recharge when rates are cheap. People will do this if u give them a 20% discount @night.

To get everyone to see this we will need everyone to post it to their facebooks/myspace pages so that word will spread! If it reaches the ears and eyes of our political leaders idk how much they can help, but its a great idea to get the idea out there!
