you don’t. get in there

Only physicists, electrical engineers, and computer engineers say stupid shit like "Kardashev scale." It's usually because they've never run into hard analog problems associated with engineering at the bleeding edge of chemistry. Immediate red flag.

its my first summit what do i wear

DIY cation exchange membrane goes fucking hard

🚨 BMW HAS SOLVED ONE OF HYDROGEN’S BIGGEST PACKAGING PROBLEMS. The company has developed a new “Hydrogen Flat Storage” system for the iX5 that uses seven slim hydrogen tanks instead of two large ones. This flat design fits into the same space as the high-voltage battery pack used in the electric iX5. This is significant because it allows BMW to build the hydrogen-powered iX5 on the same production line as petrol, diesel, plug-in hybrid, and fully electric versions without major changes to the factory or vehicle architecture. The system stores 7kg of hydrogen at 700 bar and gives the iX5 an estimated range of 385 miles. BMW plans to start series production of the iX5 Hydrogen in 2028, using a fuel cell developed in partnership with Toyota. Why this matters: • One of the biggest barriers to hydrogen vehicles has been packaging the tanks without sacrificing interior space or requiring completely separate production lines • This modular “flat storage” approach makes hydrogen powertrains much more practical to manufacture at scale • It gives BMW flexibility to produce multiple powertrains on one platform depending on demand and regional infrastructure The deeper implication: While battery electric vehicles currently dominate, BMW is continuing to develop hydrogen as a parallel technology, particularly for larger vehicles and longer-range applications. Being able to build both BEVs and FCEVs on the same line is a pragmatic engineering step that could make hydrogen vehicles more commercially viable in the future if the refuelling infrastructure catches up.

hard, capitally intensive engineering problems are abundant the ability to finance them is a difficult endeavor

i guess questions about hydrogen are off limits

The set of devices for which this is true is very very large

passive cation exchange resin real or nah

my dad built an ISP around here before he died. did not appreciate it enough.

we reverse engineered controls of high voltage power supplies and put the controls on an arduino board in 4 hours.

stop sharing my game

we build tech available no where else on earth, do cutting edge science outside of academic bureacracy, partnerships with cutting edge semiconductor companies the only *hard* part is using plain english to tell investors why we're gonna take over a $200B industry.

i posted this on insta with the song "i hate being sober" by chief keef

how many volts can we push with this transformer bobbin

today we bought a $45,000 oscilloscope for $6,000 at auction please pray i dont get my feelings hurt by this

im coming to OKC just to see and talk hydrogen

there are cathedrals everywhere for those with eyes to see

send 4 emails out for custom transformer laminations today 2 no responses 1 sign and nda and fill out a credit app 1 that only said "send dxf file now" the one was fron oklahoma. we're so back.

does anyone make a bluetooth air compressor? cords and hoses are getting frustrating. cant find anything on amazon, but im sure some startup is working on it???
