Nice.

Is there a shorter vid with less hype and more details?

Robert Rapier is my favorite energy/alt energy blogger. Very smart guy who keeps it simple for us common folk. Look up his stuff. This was his comment in Curly's link:

The level of science education in this country is atrocious. I especially liked the link to the car that supposedly only runs on water ("to catch the attention of the oil industry") and the totally uncritical comments afterward. As others have pointed out, the car in this article is not running on salt water, it is running on a battery with metallic salts as the electrolytes. That's a big difference, as it requires energy inputs to produce the specific salts that can then gradually transfer electrons and end up at a lower energy state. There is no free lunch. the laws of thermodynamics ensure that. There are no cars that "just" run on water as a fuel either. There's always a catch (i.e., another energy substantial energy input to break down the water).

The Quant is pretty much just like a Tesla, just ten times more expensive and twice as powerful.

He's probably a great guy but dang that's a horrible name.
