2022 refresh of the 2013 clip. I am still driving this car - no problems at all. Very astonishing for a 2013 beta model. See two all electric Tesla Model S Performance 85 and 85 race against Porsche, BMW, Audi on the French racetrack Anneau du Rhin. At 1:35 you can see a Tesla flying off the racetrack - gladly, nothing happened to the car nor to the driver ,-)

    Are there any solid capacitors from a premium brand that would change also the quality of sound? I'm about to get a Powernode 2 for a few pounds that has the red light problem and I want to know if it can be brought to life but also to get the improved experience. Thanks

    • @MarcsHobbies
      @MarcsHobbies 12 дней назад

      I don't think so - these caps are not in the signal path. Since they are getting warm or hot I would choose some 105 degree ones. Make sure capacity and voltage are correct and have an eye on polarity.

    • @masterat0r
      @masterat0r 12 дней назад

      Then changing all the caps will do. Just kidding. If ai aint broken, dont fix it. Thanks Marc

    I think I have a similar power supply but with less options upstairs. An inheritance from my father. I have yet to try it out but with all these switched power supplies that I have here it is getting no use for the moment. Also with that transformer it weighs a ton! Just also saw your repair on that Nad, wow that was a cool find. Those were really expensive in the days compared to other brands. Can I ask what that blowdryer is? Seems to work great!

      The tesla has great potential for oversteer. with its very low center of gravity and huge instantaneous torque, getting the rear wheels to slide on you isn't hard at all. unfortunately being electric, there is no gearbox let alone a clutch but this is quickly becoming the case with all cars. the last car to be offered only with a manual gearbox (the SRT Viper) has stopped production because of lack of sales. the art of shifting is dying but you can still have fun in a car whether its electric or gas. I'm actually very excited about the upcoming hybrid sports cars like the BMW i8 which get much better fuel economy than a Toyota Prius yet still perform quite well.
