What an insanely poorly made vehicle

@LilahTovMoon That's why it's not gonna make it here in Germany. We're running on 230V.

@LilahTovMoon oh my god…. Find myself wondering: Is this a design, erm, feature or a defect of that particular vehicle?
-
@Wifiwits @LilahTovMoon It's probably a defect; but the fact that that defect can happen and not be found and rejected during manufacturing... is the design flaw.

@laprice @Wifiwits @LilahTovMoon The whole system should immediately cut power if there current where it doesn't belong, ESPECIALLY with such obvious parts like the chassis. The fact there is no security feature that prevents stuff like this… hard to find any word describing it better than "third-world design / engineering". It's a garbage product you'd only expect off of AliExpress, simply garbage.

I have wondered if he's trying to pull some sort of "innovators dilemma" start crappy and toylike abd then create a new category thing.It is tempting to think that he's managing to get all of the worst people to pay for his R&D so he can get the process refined to the point where it's a plausible chassis for replacing the HMMV.
But given it's complexity and the number of untested technologies stuffed into it (the whole drive by wire schtick) I'm leaning more towards the theory that he gets high before meeting the design team and wants to see shiny cool shit added to it.

@laprice @Wifiwits @LilahTovMoon Given all the things I heard about Musk I believe there simply ain't enough people that prevent him from doing nonsense at Tesla, like there are at SpaceX. "Drive-by-wire" also sounds like he saw some documentary about how Fly-by-wire made fighting jets more cool and suddenly wanted that for cars.
I don't think there's some bigger plan aside from what his strategists and lawyers come up with after the fact. After all we all know he's the opposite of a genius. -

It will not happen here, since wallboxes here have to contain RCD ("FI"). And it has to have detection for ground faults too.
in other words: Even if it's not an issue with the electric system of the house (e.g. N and L reversed), even if it's a fault inside the the car, the wallbox should detect the issue and shut down... the very latest at the point of human contact to the chassis. -
@adorfer @cgudrian @LilahTovMoon where’s here, and what’s RCD (“FI”)?
-
@rhymerepartee @cgudrian @LilahTovMoon RCD/GFCI/RCCB... every country uses a different acronym.
a cybertruck certainly is a very stupid car on so many levels. Nevertheless, the shown charging issue is most certain a fault of the wallbox or the installation at this home.

@adorfer @rhymerepartee @cgudrian @LilahTovMoon Ah, GFCI. Yeah, it's not required everywhere here (in the US). The main places where it is are outlets for kitchen appliances and hair dryers, but it is getting more common for them to be in other places of the house.

@Natanox @laprice @Wifiwits @LilahTovMoon Hey, don't put aliexpress down here with this garbage, they sell perfectly good drone parts that have done well for me. Can't say the same about the incel camino

@TeflonTrout @laprice @Wifiwits @LilahTovMoon AliExpress is like qualitative anarchy. You can find anything on it, but there's nothing to convey whether you're receiving a proper product or plastic garbage.
(Tech parts are usually working though)
