Has anybody tried something silly like carrying 5 fully charged batteries in their trunk, and every time your about to run out of energy, you stop, switch to a new battery, and keep going till you’ve gone through all 5?(Then you stop somewhere and recharge them all).

Last time I checked on EVs, it was 2010, when they could only do 10 to 30 miles per battery, and I remember somebody did this with their own EV converted from a gas car to travel long distance, lol.

Right now, I’m carless, and depend on myself using a bicycle to travel anywhere(I have a 50 mile a day range, lol.) I’m injured right now so I can’t ride, so probably why I started thinking about EVs after all these years.

    I’m still living in the past(2010) when people made their own EVs out of gas cars and batteries could be picked up by a single human. What a plot twist that batteries increased in size to increase battery life instead of increasing in capacity while staying a small size.

    I’m wondering what other “advancements” have been made in the EV field since then.

    Well, as revealed in this very thread, somebody did in fact make their own DIY workaround to this problem. lol
