A couple of months ago, I learned from David Pogue about a company (Better Place) working to make electric cars a reality. I have been wondering how we were going to refuel our cars for longer distances, and Better Place has a plan in place.
They have charging stations already in place in Israel; these work when you park your car for the day while you’re at work or out for awhile. Yesterday, they unveiled the battery-swaping station they will need to keep you moving on those long-distance trips. Check out the YouTube video at the end to see a sample battery swap.
Major thumbs up for all involved. Make it happen, I will be one of the first to buy an electric car.
