Look at all the hard work that’s been put into making the battery a non repairable item! Very ‘green’!
-
Tom is your new Youtube star. Intelligent, clear, and easily understood. Thanks.
-
Kudos for the editing. Cold openings and out takes make this engineering channel all that more special. Thanks Team Munro!
-
Ifixit score 0/10
-
This Tom person is an excellent presenter. He and Sandy together are more than worth the time. Great work!
-
Battery configuration: likely 192s 7p, which would be about 705V DC nominal. 4 modules of 336 cells each. The 4 modules are 48s 7p each. To be confirmed once they can look under the green foam which may hide a couple of more cells at the ends. There is a switching circuit that can either switch the pack to 192s 7p (all 4 modules in series) or 96s 14p (2s2p of the modules).

I can’t explain why I find watching Munro videos so interesting, I’m in no way an engineer but knowledge is power
-
Only Munro Live can turn a sponsor read into bonus content
-
This is why I watch every Munro live video. Caresoft is a lot of fluff. Sandy is simple and to the point. Great explanation on the venting!
-
19:00 The car/truck has basically one wear item that's worth 30K–40K USD and you can only hope that there isn't any unexpected fault in that part because it cannot be repaired, only replaced!
-
This video is brilliant! I'm not an engineer but I learned so much as a lay person. Simply brilliant and so educational.
-
More of this guy please.. I watched at 2x speed and he's a very smooth talker and easy to absorb
-
Yep…watching Sandy open up these packs is well worth the wait. Does what ever is needed to get the job done.
-
Watched the weigel ad with real interest. Hope he breaks the trend of 3rd generation companies. Seems like it will keep going strong 👍❤️
-
The Munro cold open is the best
-
The ability to pressurize the pack and a pressure sensor should also allow some diagnostics about whether there are breaches in the seals or a stuck open port. Hopefully this will make the packs even safer
-
Also, the batteries last time weren't an outrageously high price. Happy to pay more!
-
0:04 that what we call in the Army, a calibrated long bar.😅
-
So the CyberTruck has a non-repairable battery.
-
So happy when Sandy's on camera! His team is great, but nothing beats Sandy's presentation style.
