I often wonder?!?!?!?!?!?! Just how much did Nickoli take to his grave with him?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? His tower of power, electricity from the air just like radio, his thoughts on electrical generation and transmission, his pump/compressor mechanical design, and on and on!!!!!! The man was quite simply way beyond his time!!!!!!!! It's too damned bad he was such a reclusive type and even worse that ol' moneybags T. Edison just despised him even though Edison stole all of his very best publically known ideas and inventions!!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing, zero!!!!!!!!! I had forgotten about the Tesla entry!!!!!!!

Thanks sycho, I've been watching these guys for some time, they had this idea for awhile but hasn't been able to get a battery design down..... I guess they have it now. Yes they are 100 grand but they are also being hand built, once they get a full production line going the price should drop.
I read that they came out the roadster to get some attention from the car mags but they are also planning a sedan in the future. I would imagine Honda and Toyota have their own that they will disassemble and use the better ideas. This is the year it really gets started, who knows what will be out by next year or 5 years from now.
No matter where I've traveled or how great the trip was, it's always wonderful to return to my country, The United States of America......... me
