Better place battery switch demonstration in Yokohama, Japan

Demonstration of the worlds first automated battery switch technology for electric vehicles. Why it matters. check out "the Davos Questian film" How it works goto how it works film.

what happens when someone runs their car in the pit.? A line forms at the rear for 3 days.One bank of solar cells will not do the job of charging the battery.Tell us how many AMPS is required to run the battery chargers.Dream on ! Where is the new coal fired generating plant going to be located.

Nothing will happen if the car runs into the pit. It will be covered and guide rail will stop the car falling in the pit. Check out the other films. Check out your nearest car wash.

Betterplace is generating green energy to power all the energy needed to run all the cars without oil.

Again check the other films.

On the issue of power from coal, even if you only used coal to power the cars it will be cleaner than petrol.

Israel the power will come from solar,

Denmark wind, Australia sun, Hawaii sun wind sea and geothermal.

It must really piss you off when capitalists solutions come to save the world and science triumphs.

what love about this, at the start and end, you hear the car traffic, but not the betterpleace car

@12september1683 , the noiseless car can be a little scary for a cyclist, but we will have to get those little rear view mirror things for our helmets. Electric cars are well worth it.

@z0ZzZ0z Try looking over your shouder. Electic cars can have speakers playing engin noise or any sound. Think of ringtones

So does this mean that soon we will not see politicians gay-kissing(Bush) or bowing down to(Obama) the Saudi Royal Crime Family and their ilk? I certainly hope so!

Yeah, I know. California and Hawaii will get them in 2010 or 2011. We will have the Tesla Model S.

It is Better Place that came up with the idea, not Japan. And Better Place is HQed in California. America will finally become more energy independent again.

you had better look at stupid drivers on youtube.The car would destroy the whole works if it fell or was driven on wrong. AMP's and lots of them are required to charge those batteries. That means heat steam coal and coal hauling trucks not mention the big ass smoke stacks.You had better look into volts, amps,and watts.Alot of California's power plants are in other states.That is where their smog has gone.

check out my film on the myths of electic batteries it is a video responce above marked part 2
