autonomy

Filling a Tesla Cybertruck with solar panels only costs $ 10,000. Its owners now have 7.5 kilometers extra of autonomy

by

We said when the Cybertruck tesla was presented than the larger and more disruptive electric car of Elon Musk’s company arrived with a Important overpricing and with less autonomy of the fiancee. Since then, sales have grown at an irregular pace. For a time it earned him to become The best -selling luxury vehicle In the United States but a few months later he found that they were not going to be able to continue selling the electric pick-up above $ 100,000 for an indefinite time. What is clear is that Tesla Cybertruck has become something like an “image vehicle.” It is not a purchase based on rationality Well, it is not the most comfortable car and, Not much less, the most capable outside the asphalt. It is a purchase that aligns the driver with the most outgoing facet of Elon Musk’s products. Part of the interest raised by Tesla Cybertruck is in its ability to adapt, supposedly, to any circumstance. His facet has been highlighted to spend a few days in the field (although his finishes to camperize the model Leave much to be desired) and has unleashed the imagination of the owners to the point of transforming it into A tower with wheels and metrallet. And with that last purpose, that of carrying out something unexpected, a company has proposed to increase the autonomy of electric car based on putting solar panels distributed throughout the body. It doesn’t seem the best idea. An extra ridiculous at a very high price The transformation of this tesla cybertruck It could be seen live During the past Ces of Las Vegas. There, the company Sunflare Solar presented the electric pick-up wrapped in flexible solar panels that aim to expand the completely electric autonomy of this electric car. Or, rather, we should say that the case may be free of charge for a few kilometers. Few, if we take into account the price of the transformation and the results that are presented in the best conditions. According to the company’s accounts, collected by Electreck, Sunflare aloner promises to be able to travel a few extra kilometers daily for the modest price of $ 10,000. They believe that with their flexible panels distributed throughout the body can be obtained up to 1.5 kW extra daily. Assuming a consumption of 20 kWh/100 km, we would be talking about just 7.5 kilometers. The figure is far from what Elon Musk who before launching his Tesla Cybertruck mentioned that it would be offered with the option of adding solar panels on the roof that would deliver up to 25 kilometers of extra autonomy. Something that, obviously, has not occurred. Who could make sense for? Well, we could imagine that if we want to camp using the Tesla Cybertruck for our trip we can always use the vehicle to feed different devices. In that case, 1.5 kWh of extra power will always be of great help since we will not be draining the battery at all. In fact, to the company that has presented this option specialized in the use of solar panels in the roofs of the homes but, also, On the ceiling of camperized vehiclesFor example. Of course, we must bear in mind that we are talking about an “improvement” that costs $ 10,000. And, to this we must add that the electric car was sold as a kind of vehicle to the proof of any damage. Its body, of steel, is designed to not suffer with the blows and cover the entire body of solar panels is to buy all the ballots to leave us good money if someone brushes our vehicle. The effectiveness of solar panels in vehicles is a pending task. At the moment, no one has managed to get a good enough performance for it to deserve to invest in technology. Manufacturers like Mercedes continues to study their possibilities But, until now, everything has remained in an auxiliary element for feed electrical devices of the vehicle without increasing consumption so the profit is minimal.

There is a mobile with six months of autonomy and incorporated projector. Indeed, it is a mamotreto of almost a kilo

There is something beautiful, in its own way, in the most beast phones. The sector is accustomed to the mobiles being more and more thin, beautiful, elegant, Premium and lightbut where are those brown beasts with projector, flashlights, with battery to endure several days? Because yes, these mobiles have their audience and see them in action, but above all, have them in hand, it is always spectacular. That is what happens with the Oukitel WP100 Titana mobile that to the question of how much weighs can only be answered with: yes. Oukitel WP100 Titan Technical Card Oukitel WP100 Titan dimensions and weight 178.3 x 84.3 x 35.6 mm 876.6 grams screen 6.8 inches FullHD+ resolution (2,460 x 1,080 pixels) Refresco rate: 120 Hz processor MEDATEK DIMENSITY 7300 RAM 16 GB Internal storage 512 GB rear camera Angular: 200 MP Macro Chamber: 2 MP Night vision: 20 MP Front camera 32 MP battery 33,000 mAh 66W fast charge Inverse loading of 18W Operating system Android 14 connectivity 5g NFC Bluetooth GPS others Lateral footprint reader Camping lamp Project SOS button PTT button Water resistance Resistance to extreme temperatures price $ 899 So heavy that has a handle Oukitel WP100 Titan | Image: Xataka Yes, it’s a mobile. The Oukitel WP100 Titan is a terminal financed in Kickstarter and developed by Oukitel, an old man known in this rugerized mobiles and out of the ordinary. The format must have convinced, because the company has managed to raise about 450,000 euros by users. Apart money, the striking thing about this device is that it is the first mobile in history to incorporate a 33,000 mAh battery. It is said soon. The size matters. Obviously, that has not been achieved to maximize thickness and weight, but rather the opposite. If we see it in front it seems nothing out of the ordinary. It is a mobile of 178 per 84 millimeters with a 6.8 -inch screen, quite standard. The thing is that if we put it as a song we will see that its thickness is 35.6 millimeters. And how much is that? The equivalent of 17 cords of one stacked euro. Oukitel WP100 Titan | Image: Xataka Another thing we will notice when holding it is your weight. Because in a world where more 200 grams are already noticed in hand, this terminal weighs the whopping of 876.6 grams. It is the same as holding five iPhone 16. This is a practically literal statement, millimeter and gram above, millimeter and gram below. That is why it has all the meaning of the world that the terminal has an handle in the left song. And what do you have? On the one hand, the battery. 33,000 mAh Dan for, according to Oukitel, 4,459 hours of autonomy in Standby. That is, the equivalent of (the throat is clarified) six months of autonomy. If that is not enough to justify its thickness, perhaps the fact that you have an camping light with 1,500 LEDs and 1,200 bright lumens. Or maybe the projector. Oukitel WP100 Titan | Image: Xataka Projector? Yes, at the top this device has a 100 lumens projector. It is not a high -end projector, much less. It has a resolution of 854 x 480 pixels, so it can use us to see a movie in certain contexts, such as when we go from camping, but little else. Well, a movie is not. According to Oukitel, up to six films with a single load. And if having a mobile with battery for six months and with a campsite light that in the promotional video they use to nail a tent on the floor, open a beer bottle (it seems to have a built -in opener), explore a cave and see a movie in the middle of the desert was not enough, we can always use it as an external battery. One with 18W of power, to be exact. It also seems valid as a throwing weapon. Oukitel WP100 Titan | Image: Xataka The rest of the components. The truth is that, on paper, the device does not look bad. Mounted a mediaTak Dimensity 7300 processor, 16 Gigas RAM, 512 GB of internal storage and a main camera of 200 megapixels. The operating system is Android 14 update a Android 15 And it has, of course, GPS, water resistance and extreme temperatures, night vision chamber and NFC. Taking out this mobile to pay for the purchase in the Super must be an experience. Versions and price of Oukitel WP100 Titan This device can be bought, for now, in Kickstarter in its Early Bird version for $ 599. The final price will be $ 899. The first units will begin to be sent in April 2025. Images | Xataka In Xataka | Ultra -resistant mobile purchase guide: certifications and standards, special functions and 11 roaring phones

break with Castilla and become autonomy

by

Thousands of people, 13,000, according to Police calculationsthey left yesterday to the streets of León to demand a better future for their province. So far not surprising. The funny thing is that at least a significant part of the attendees imagines that future in a different administrative scenario: in a lion separated from Castilla, which has ceased to be province to become the 18th autonomy of Spain and no longer looks at Valladolid as its de facto regional capital. That there is one Autonomist drive In the province it is not a novelty. Years ago that their defenders cry because the region courts its administrative ties with Castilla. Yesterday’s march served however for something else: show to what extent that feeling has become strong and lets hear in the province. It was about showing muscle. And he did. A figure: 13,000. That is the number of people who mobilized yesterday in León to demand a better future for the province: 13,000. At least According to the accounts Police officers, because there are those who speak of several tens of thousands And the organizers of the march point to many more, around 50,000. It is good for one or another figure, the undeniable thing is that thousands of lions took the streets of their capital between flags, banners and songs to wrap a march called by The main unions and backed by 60 groups to defend the future of the region. Your motto: “More solutions and less stories.” Click on the image to go to Tweet. What did they claim? “Definitive Solutions” For León at the economic and sociodemographic level. But not just that. Like the march held just a five years, The 16-F of 2020yesterday’s demonstration served to show the discontent of the Leon with the situation in their province; But also for something else: to make clear to what extent the idea has gained strength that the future of León must go through conquering greater administrative autonomy against Castile. León News covered the act and He recounts that during the manifestation, shouts of “Autonomy of the country” were heard and banners were shown in favor of autonomy. Also flags that cried out for “autonomy 18” or “Lexit”label that (in a wink to Brexit) has made fortune thanks to the combination of “León” and “Exit”. The idea of ​​autonomy was so present during the march that today They are not few The media regional ones that dedicate its headlines. Why is it important? Because yesterday’s march acts in a certain way of thermometer, one that helps to understand the discomfort in the province with its current situation and the interest raised by the lexit as an exit. Both when it comes to figures (between 13,000 and 50,000 attendees in a city of 122,200 neighbors) as social support. Although over the last months it has been clear that Not all Come with good eyes with Castilla, yesterday’s day shows, at least, that León believes that he must fight for “The future that deserves”. “More solutions, less stories”. In the head From the demonstration at his exit from San Marcos lucia a banner that prayed “León + Solutions – Tales”, a message focused on the struggle for better infrastructure, reindustrialization, employment and public services. And it is undeniable that the message fell. The appointment attended representatives of most parties with weight in the province, The mayor of Leónthe president of the Diputación and members of social groups. Click on the image to go to Tweet. Beyond the streets. Yesterday was not the first sample to what extent the Lexit has penetrated in the region. TO late 2019 Several parties joined their votes to claim the autonomy of the Leonese region and become the 18 Spanish community. The idea: separate from Castilla with Salamanca and Zamora. After the pandemic the drivers of that measure organized An act To remember that they did not give up and last year, in a new step in that same direction, PSOE and UPL added their votes to claim autonomy in the Diputación de León. Not everyone thinks the same, of course. In 2024 the PP already marked distances with the autonomist motion and advocated looking for a “Useful Leonism”. “The community has been failed”. Proof of how living the claim is that the mayor of León, the socialist José Antonio Diez, recently presented a legal report to guarantee the Lexit. “We are clear about the mandate and will of the Leon, who have opted for their own community, and the Constitution supports us through the article,” José Antonio Diez claimsof the PSOE, who defends that “the current community has been failed.” “We never wanted to be part of Castilla.” One question: Why? Because the province of León lidia with worrying data at the demographic and economic level. Four years ago I added 451,700 inhabitants, 13% less than in the mid -90s and 2024 data They suggest that it would be below 448,000. In a scenario marked by the urban exodus and the bleeding of the Mining municipalitiesLeón has also become one of the territories that More population loses from all over the country. And his business balance is not especially good either. The latest data released over 2024 show that it lost 144 contributing businesses In just one year, which is equivalent to the more or less 50% of closures In autonomy. Interesting yes, new no. The discomfort of the Leon is not new. A five years ago, the 18F of 2020, already encouraged Another mass march During which shouts of “autonomy, Leonese country” could already be heard, in tune with those who launched yesterday. “The Leonese go out to demonstrate, basically to change the territorial framework that impoverishes us,” He explained yesterday A UPL attorney. If something showed the day is that it is not the only one who thinks so. Image | CCOO CASTILLA Y LEÓN In Xataka | Castilla-La Mancha is about to shrink 2,000 hectares in favor of Aragon.
