I see a real potential here....
Lmfao...excellent, but totally true. A gas can has how much energy potential for the size and weight? How much bigger and heavier does a battery need to be at -30 to just equal the energy in a regular old 5 gallon gerry can eh? You won't be dragging one of those back to the charging station for a top up lol, be lookin for that guy with the diesel pick up, slip tank, and 10 kw genset haha

Last I checked Quebec still gets extremely cold temps during the winter months.
Lots of power outages due to running their Air Conditioners.
