- Brock Archer partners with Tesla to teach a class on how to properly and safely extinguish a high voltage vehicle fire. New electrical vehicles are the future and are being produced in the thousands which is why we should be competent in the approach, extinguish and clean up of an electrical vehicle fire.
What about the Email the dude got while screen recording this video😂 Some kid named Tyson goo needa pay his Hawaii Community College debt🤣
I guess he was waiting for Joe Biden to do it.
@@armadilllo Lol cope harder, Trump a walking L, so is Joe but he’s at-least less of a fuck up.
@@DannyPellham 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪 That's hilarious and you're insane
I'm sure firemen just love responding to crispy Teslas.
the ad 😂
Have you seen what happens when you put water on lithium. Co² can cool it way more efficiently
But CO2 is very limited in quantity. In an urban setting, water from a fire hydrant is basically unlimited, so you can cool down the car and surroundings as long as it is required.
Yes, lithium solid reacts explosively with water, however when lithium is ionized in a substance, such as that found in a battery, the lithium ion is unreactive. This is similar to how sodium reacts explosively with water, but the sodium ion in sodium chloride (table salt) doesn't react with the water when dissolved.
I have a premium account with RUclips and couldn't figure out why I was getting advertisements. I tried clicking "skip video" several times. lol. Then, I saw the pop-ups, etc.
How about CO2, ABC dry chemical, powder graphite, copper powder or sodium carbonate fire extinguishers? Check also the Bridgehill fire blanket and the F-500 foam agent.
Useless cos they don’t cool the battery is wot he said.
GODBLESS CAN't you use FOAM to put OUT EV FIRES
In lithium ion packs it’s a chemical fire. Smothering it won’t put it out. Doesn’t hurt but isn’t going to change things, your focus is cooling it down below the runaway point.
Foam does nothing, in particular it doesn't cool the fire down. Same with ABC powder.
Water will ignite lithium. Why does he suggests using water?
The NVFC course I took said to use water as well to cool the batteries on EV fires.
There is only little elemental lithium in a battery (for example, in a Tesla there is about 5kg lithium), and the cooling down you get from water easily outweighs the undesirable effects from some of the water getting converted to hydrogen and participating in the fire.
What about the danger of electrocution due to water?
There is no potential against earth, so any currents are localized to the car. It is only dangerous if you are directly working at the car, for example if you want to disconnect the battery. This is different to normal power distribution, for example when an overhead line comes down after an accident, where potential against earth is present.
Yes definitely a good chance of electrocution. You have water and a positive and a negative charge with water with high voltage and high amps.
