Great to see Sandy Munro on here.👏👏
🙋♂️ THANKS BRIAN 🤗 GREAT INTERVIEW 🧐💚💚💚
PATREON of FutureAZA & Munro, I am. I hoped Sandy’s recent championing of the Sakuu battery would come up in this interview, but it’s still pretty hot news, and, as such will be an upcoming recurrent topic.
For manufacturing technology, Sandy is an important leader and guiding light for me, and Brian, you educate me and keep me on my toes too. However, to the extent Sandy is championing the Sakuu Battery, I have a terrible stumble trying to understand how the Sakuu Battery handles HEAT!
HEAT - I really need to understand how the Sakuu Metal Free Battery can handle HEAT! Generally metals conduct heat much faster and better than plastics. Is what’s not explained so far got to do with thermo-conductive plastics or ceramics? Moving heat around efficiently is something that has to be reckoned with. I hope it's not a show stopper for this new Sakuu battery technology. High rates of charge (short recharge times), and bat-out-of-hell FUN acceleration both bump up against battery heat issues. And just plain old keeping the battery temp happy regardless of what the weather's doing outside is important too.
The lithium battery’s internal resistance (regardless of form factor) increases during both discharge and charge, and internal resistance & temperature increases faster with faster rates of charge or discharge. As battery internal resistance goes up its power handling capability (charge or discharge) is decreased. Controlling battery temperature is very important for battery power handling performance, and battery life. In general the lower a battery’s innate internal resistance characteristics the better its power handling capability. I’m not aware of any electric cars that don’t have an active battery thermal management system; most use liquid cooling, and - outside of the battery itself, regardless of liquid or air cooling, use aluminum material somewhere in the heat exchanger system. (Please educate me of any exceptions and facts.)
The lithium 4680 form factor with very thin metal foils and tabless electrodes wrapped completely through the jellyroll, or even flat batteries with thin metal foil seem to have an advantage rapidly moving heat for thermal management. If you don’t have heat exchange material right up through the core or a battery cell, won’t you have the weight of heat exchanger material added back somewhere else adding back pack weight, or excepting lower power handling capability? Is there a way for Sakuu to get out of the lab?
Some technologies will get out of the lab, Sakuu clearly looks promising to Sandy; I want to be able to see what Sandy sees? Please help me up from falling on my face - so far!
It was discussed in part one a few days ago, wasn't it?
Sakuu showed prismatic form factor similar size to 4680 cell.
Will likely compete well with LG version of 4680 for heat dissipation.
Good job to you both.
It’s always hard to ask different questions as Sandy gets interviewed often.
I watch all of them, so I know where there's new ground to cover.
Great interview Brian. Hope to see you in Vancouver in the fall. 🇨🇦
I won't be there this year. Had an event in Oregon the same weekend I couldn't miss, so I didn't get on the roster with Fully Charged.
It's been pushed back a week, but I didn't find out until it was too late.
I remember that Sunday in June when you were folding up that little shield and putting it in the baggie look like a really nice item Brian the Highlander😊
Yes it was!
I started off being TOTALLY UNIMPRESSED with Sandy in 2018. "Old" gearhead with a hatred for EVs and progress that wasn't ICE.
And I was VERY wrong ...
Really hoping Brian will get a chance to give a trustworthy opinion on the BYD Seagull when he is in Mexico. That looks to be the car the average "Gen Z" American needs.
The VW $1 Billion will keep Rivian afloat for 10 to 12 weeks, depending on how much they tightening their belts. I just hope it’s not too little too late for Rivian.
Brilliant, thanks Brian😊 Great interview,
My pleasure!
Cheers guys
This must be the most click-baity title I've ever seen.
We A/B test them. We have to use what people will watch or we go out of business. It sucks, but it's how UA-cam works.
@@FutureAZAMaybe what’s worse is the continual pimping of Sandy Munro’s absolute bullshit. The CT is trash, my model 3 was a lemon, I wouldn’t listen to Sandy for ANY reason. The man has clearly sold out his ethics to pump Tesla stick the past 7 years. I’ve watched him every step of the way and he should be held accountable for his part in the most egregious pump n’ dump in history. Thanks Sandy.
@@FutureAZA F that, I'm unsubscribing. I don't like when channels don't respect their viewers.
I am used to click baiting titles... But they shouldn't be misleading. Respect your viewers time!
@@FutureAZA, find a business that doesn’t force you to sell your integrity - just to merely stay afloat.
in another galaxy munro and the associates might be called ‘the boutique’… 🎉
Am I the only one that say welcome to "my tesla weekend" during the intro
I've slipped a few times. Mostly at the end of long days.
Plus jim has to deal with the UWA and its corruption as well. Not a great mix for anyone.
Good job 🙏🏻
"Jaw Dropping"? Not really.
Audio is all over the place! Gotta balance the levels, please
Thanks!
You bet! Thank you so much!
Only because you can’t get BYD’s
What is Jim Farley interesting above all others?
PS Brian remember, kindness is always free. The Highlander.😊
What happened to the volume on this video?
FYI: your aza10 discount code isn’t working.
Sent them a message.
Youre getting ai spam investment comments. You made it Brian!

Back just been for a fat green
hey editor, that slow zoom-in is kinda distracting me from paying attention on what is said :))), other than that, great interview
I'm not a truck guy, but in the youtubes I've seen, the Silverado beats the pants off of the F150L and the Cybertruck.
Haven't had the time to check out enough Silverado coverage. I've been trying to get GM to take my calls, but they are incredibly slow and either don't like me, or are dreadfully bad at their job.
In what metrics?
@@raymondschembri5042 Towing range. Search for a UA-cam titled "Why does the Chevy EV tow TWICE as far as the Cybertruck?!" I've seen other head-to-head comparisons of the Silverado with the Cybertruck and F150L, and the Silverado goes much further when towing a trailer.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✌🏻
If only...Aptera had Sandy! So much to do, so little money.
Munro has worked with Aptera. I don't know the extent of the involvement, but they got him.
Ever notice Sandy does not mention Aptera in any prediction on any channel for up and coming EVs. He is a paid consultant only and unless they pay he does not play. Plus he dropped a bomb in August 2023 when he stated Aptera gave up on hub motors and Aptera recently took Elaphe off their supplier list and now refuses, YES REFUSES, to tell prospective owners even how many wheels are powered let alone what powers them
@andromedach
Aptera is under an NDA until final agreements are inked. Powertrain is 100% locked down for mass production and announcements are forthcoming. Delete your assumptions and let Aptera show you how it's actually done.
What about repairs? Is there any chance to cut out damaged chunk of casting and splice / weld a replacement in? Right now EV's are getting the reputation of being "1-crash, throw it away". Part of the problem is simply mechanics are not familiar with them, so they refuse to work on them. Part of the problem is insurance company risk aversion, fear of the unknown when it comes to repairing EV's.
Sandy made a whole video debunking the notion. The castings are stronger than the stamped pieces they replaced. Any accident with sufficient force to damage a casting would have already totaled any other car on the road, regardless of the method of construction.
With that said, you can absolutely weld a casting. If it's 50 years from now and your antique car is badly wrecked, yes, you can weld it.
Take it to India, they can weld & re-machine anything including cast iron engine blocks, diff gears on trucks.
Better yet, stop breaking stuff.
Now, if only someone can weld up my scapula or the AC joint. ;-(
What is AZA?
Recommends Ford Lightning and Kia/Hyundai and Chinese EV's?!? Get a checkup, Sandy.
Over what? He already says Tesla is the best, and Ford's serious generation won't be out for another year or two. Who do you think are the up and comers?
Sandy was based on what is avaliable in the US market, look like so easy to misunderstood his meaning.
What does it do to repair costs? How is that affecting insurance cost?
Dear Brian. Please leave out the annoying muzak, that ruins the speech, for all of us having English as our second language. It doesnt sound as a serious video with important technical info, but more like a cheap commercial or russian porn. 🤪 Love from Per in Denmark 🇩🇰😎
Yawn, this is the same thing Sandy has been saying for over two years!
Understandable, but only if you slept through the whole thing.
@@FutureAZA Whatever fanboy
I disagree with his assessment of GM. They made sure to have their battery game in place before diving in deep which is Ford's mistake. They also have delivery vans under Brightdrop.
LG jvs using mostly outdated pouch nmc cells isn't having a battery game in place smh.
The most ev recalls so far have all been for pouch nmc cells! 🙂
@@4literv6 In 2024 that does not hold water with GM using LG.
Chevy Bolt was GM and had the most and worst battery problems.
@@stevennelson7518 No longer on sale
@@kelviskelvis7140 of course it does as I said pouch nmc cells have had the most recalls both in cars&home storage genius!
And it's not just lg pouch cells either, catl and byd plus others have had many more recalls than either cylindrical or prismatic cells! 😀
Hi, very love your vedio. Can I get your email for collaboration? Thanks in advance
