Thank you, finally a good explanation. All the other videos I watched looking for the answer were garbage.
Really well explained and illustrated!!!
Correction… A ‘rectifier’ converts AC to DC An ‘inverter’ converts DC to AC

AC to DC ....its not Inverter.....its RECTIFIER
Great info, but what's with the protection glasses 🤣. Do you expect the camera to fall on yoir face or what?
How much do these units cost?
However much they go for at auction; Lightning eMotors went bankrupt and their assets are being sold off.
You're really good about it. And a expert with vehicle e. 😯👍👍
What went wrong?
New Look New Features, WHAT !!!???? the New Look is Lightening E motors is in court, shareholders are angry.
Can you add extra batteries to a 2022 Ford E transit?
Hey, remember when the SEC used to put CEOs away for lying like this?
Great

Is the term Converter used for the device turning AC into DC while Inverter from DC to AC? Or are the two words exactly the same?
I would say rectifier. :)
Ok, Lightning Emotors is essentially bust. Stock is nearly zero at this time of writing and I lost money because of it. Whose fault is that? Mine of course. I hope that the CEO and his admins have a horrible life hereafter...No more EV stocks for me besides Tesla. Rivian is also at a loss for me (I am stuck with this sucker), only Tesla has been giving me gold coins. I am good, I invest in stocks that give me a good return whatever the environmental outcome is. I am no longer investing with my heart, only with my head.
Bought out or bankrupt?
Pretty sure this will get bought out or delisted. Lost money on this stock but you win some and you lose some
stock : -99.99%
RIP Lightning emotors, wish I could have got there to do the tour before the receivers...
I think it is a rectifier not an inverter, converts from AC to DC.
There are inverters for AC-to-DC conversion too. After all, that's what happens in our vehicles when regenerative braking happens: the motor becomes an AC generator, and the traction inverter converts the AC electricity to DC for charging the batteries. A simple rectifier in a DC Fast Charger wouldn't really work because it can't control the DC output voltage. A DC charger needs to be able to adjust the voltage to (a) suit the voltage specs of the vehicle it's charging, and (b) adjust correctly for the batteries' state of charge, so the voltage actually changes during a charging session. An inverter is a complex, CPU-controlled device which can do all of this; a rectifier wouldn't be able to. You're right, though, that the inverters that most people are familiar with convert DC to AC, such as when you've got solar panels on your roof.
@@LightningeMotors Usually we call AC to DC “converter”, and DC to AC “inverter”. And the AC to DC converter circuitry contains rectifiers.
Fun fact: It's a MID-ENGINE type-A school bus!
*promo sm*
One of the worst investments. It has not been that long since the Reverse split - somewhere in the first quarter 20:1. Within 6 months back to square one $8 to (64 cents). As a bonus to the investors got delisted from NYSE.
Your vehicles are far from zero emissions, the emissions used in mining the raw materials for the battery alone far exceed the emissions produced by a well built and engineered internal combustion powered vehicle during its lifespan, and that doesn't take in the "dirty" energy used in producing the rest of the vehicle or charging the EV during its very short (in comparison to IC vehicles) lifespan. EVs are a very big scam.
Fossil fuel lies.
Excellent video, what an incredible amount of work that goes into the conversion! Well Done, and keep up the great work!
No work required to keep up. Company is bankrupt.
Update: On September 18th of 2023, ZEV was delisted from NYSE. CEO may know where there is stackable funding, he just doesn't know how to make his company make the products to sell and collect on the funding by the government. He's good at leaving money on the table.

Those touch screen dashboards are really neat. Your software team is great.
Thanks! The screen on the side of the Lightning Mobile charger is a touch screen. However, the digital dashboard isn't - we don't want the driver reaching through the steering wheel while he or she is driving! :) But yes, software is arguably the most sophisticated piece of our EV engineering, and not just for the dashboard.
Why has the share price plummeted? The SPAC listing has been a total fubar
Even worse... NYSE is delisting ZEV.
They sold investors on the idea that they had major customers like Coca-Cola and the state of California and were scaling up to meet demand. Those were lies. I do think it's a good company with a good product, but it has no business being publicly traded. Their CEO saw an opportunity to grab cash with the SPAC craze and he took it. I'm out a few thousand on $ZEV, but net positive on the 2020 SPACs, so whatever.
💓💓💓💓💔💔💓💔
Great information. Thank you Dan for all the hard work you put in to these videos!!
OMG stay on task, Lightning eMotors.
We have introduced this product due to a very high level of demand from the market. We receive inquiries all the time from all over the world.
THe question is how much
There's a lot of federal money for electric school buses right now: the EPA Clean School Bus program, and the Inflation Reduction Act. Not to mention some states have valuable incentives too, such as Colorado and California. In many cases, these buses can be almost free to school districts!
NACS?
No, it's J1772 CCS-1. The Tesla in the video is being charged via an adapter.
Can you guys explain why Tim Reeser, started blocking his long term shareholders everywhere in social media. Shareholders deserve explanation. The stock tanked 95% from all time high. All promises he made during the spac days are just a myth. Hopefully he regain trust from investors....
Coal power rocks !
Coal is the worst form of electrical generation fuel in terms of CO2 emissions. Natural gas power stations are much better. They emit about half the CO2 for the same electrical energy generated. group.met.com/en/mind-the-fyouture/mindthefyouture/natural-gas-vs-coal
That's so right, except nobody mentions about it , except you , every one has just 2 things in range and capacity, thank you for bringing this up !! 👍👍
If you speed him up to 1.25x or even 1.5x he's so much more bearable to watch.
Great little catch up on the efficiency of evs and electric motors . Just wish every person could see this and the implications it has for the clean renewable conversion of the worlds transport and energy needs . The tide is turning no doubt about it , but it would be helpful if more came on board and we make this change even quicker .
And if you live like me in a small warm island and have a small 64kWh car with more than 300miles range your smile goes from ear to ear.
AND I WILL BUY A FULLY LOADED 2023 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER PHEV SEL PREMIUM ANYWAY!
@@RichardJoashTan because you're a knob
most excellent TH-cam video i have seen for awhile! Since learning Rivian Cargo vans are Amazon Prime fleet$ in the making, it's great to learn Lightning is converting DHL Ford Transits, the way i thought EV West was doing. Indeed, your doing a lot more business in Loveland! My present challenge is to try to rent an electric U-Haul, and to tow cargo cross country, been looking at Ford's Lightning which are sold out now, so thought i would convert a Transit van using Mach-e motors, but that turned out to be a bad idea. I could possibly buy an LS-218 & end up renting a crummy U-Haul... what is the range on the LS, please?
You shorting your own shite stock once you take it back to $5 with your 20:1 RS ???? Thanks for nothing, been here since original GIK days.
I really wanna know how to be a salesman for EVs. From a clerical experienced person. I wanna change careers from Pension Processor to EV sales. I love the topic, I love the movement I wanna change careers. Please please make a podcast about how to work for you guys, how to sell, how to plan out education or college. How at 40years old, is it worth it to become an electrician for EVs.
Please. I'm sure there are many 30 something's that cannot work for Tesla but will be as happy as working for Lightning E motors, or Lion Electric. Please cover that in podcast, of who in your human resource what type of people do you guys need!!!!!! Former ICE mechanics, or are all people in your shop Electrical Engineers, do you want people selling your Package, from Additions to Fleets sales are from ICE Dealers that have bad habits that sell your EV's????
