A point I forgot to mention in the video - The car pictured in the thumbnail was La Jamais Contente. All electric, and the first vehicle to go over 100 km/h (62 mph) in 1899!
What happened to "ColdFusion uploaded: Squarespace Integration ColdFusion" video? I got a notification for the upload but it's gone now :(
no probs.
lawrence Moses Agree with you ,Aside- Dgago -Where is the video?
For those interested: "La Jamais Contente" means "The Never Happy" (talking about the car) in French
For non French speaker, "La Jamais Contente" means "The never happy one"
Man I need an sick intro like yours. Really appreciate the quality over quantity vibe on this channel, rare in this day and age on YT.
Can always count on you for great vids.
Mitch Parker
Which software do you need to create such an intro?

there you go. this seems like the original creator of these kind of videos.
Focus on the content m8
This guy
- Creates his own music
- Creates sick animations
- Finds the most interesting topics to talk about
- Explains those topic in his beautiful voice
Seriously you're awesome Dagogo! I don't know when or how I started watching you but I am glad I did! Keep it up!
-Creates his own music: I hear American beauty playing, I'm sure he didn't compose that.
The oil industry doing something to prevent other technologies from competing with them? Nahhhhhh, that would never happen.
it's not really happening now.
john pardon Not anymore that is.
CONTRA and... Apple
hmm, and you think the "electric power industry" is any better?
john pardon - yeah, because the smear campaigns happening in the newspapers and online, some sponsored by the Kochs are just my imagination - www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/koch-electric-vehicles_us_56c4d63ce4b0b40245c8cbf6
I remember 10 years ago I thought that by now we would have flying cars. But after watching this video I realized we haven't gone too far since the first car.
Kristaps Lapsa well we do already have but not legally allowed yet
We have it tho
as others have mentioned we have already achieved flying cars
it's not laws it's not safety it's efficiency or value that is the problem, flying drones that can carry humans with plenty of safety redundancy exist but they are not worth to buy so no one is making them
We could have electric cats but it’s too dangerous. You want your 16 year old daughter flying around the city?
flying a drone with some collision detection (like many automated drones have) will be far easier at first since you wont have that much traffic to deal with or narrow roads, it will get fully automated by the time any significant air traffic appears.
this is based on the fact that collision detection and autonomous driving for cars isn't that far different for flying vehicles.
I've discovered your channel roughly from a month and I've already watched pretty much all of your videos, I'm loving them so much, keep up the good work!
def a quality production you got going on. plus i love the fact you dont cut corners on content. very concise yet very informative. Good job.
I love the clips you are making. Much info, such wow!
Another Great Video Mister:)
Keep Up the good work!
Electric cars will be both the first and last type of cars we use.
Knowledge Headquarters debatable. What about hydrogen cars
Elon Musk will go down in history just on what he is doing to the automative industry.
Eric Allen - Way too inefficient and horrible in production. Will go down as one of the niche prototypes. There are only very few occasions where such an energy supply may be useful.
There is no logical reason to lower the energy coefficient through several extra conversions. The industry knows that - those prototypes where just a filler to discredit electric efforts and sell fossils a bit longer.
yes they were inefficient toyota made one but they were failure.
Eric Allen Hydrogen fuel cells are far more inefficient than batteries, and are more expensive since the hydrogen has to be refined into liquid. Electric power will be dirt cheap and very clean when we move to alternative energies. It makes more sense to draw power from the sun which is infinite and use that energy to power our cars.
I always learn something new. The quality in your channel is amazing! Good work!
Superb video. Amazing research !
You said that Edison's battery factory burned down ? Just like Tesla's work shop ? Coincidence hmmm 💭 . Great clip as always 😊
Paul Boakes insurance since the project failed ? Yes there was insurance back then (but paid a small amount ) and burning the whole company down makes it easy to declare a cheaper version of bank croupy ( assets = debt or close sell assets )
And if you are going to say oil companies guess again since they were as nothing till 1947
Caz it was in 1947 that dollar became oil based instead of gold
0:40 "Avoid the use of gasoline, oil (...) now needed for the government."
What about the military industrial complex?

@@MrLiquidxIce I dont think you Know Standard Oil and Jhon D. Rockefeller. If Oil was Nothing Its strange that he was one of the richest man in the World
This is a historic video Dagogo! To think we started off automobiles in the electric route only to let the Oil companies kill that initiative and billions were instead invested into developing and refining the internal combustion engine over the next 150yrs... almost destroying the planet along the way!!
If the same amount of money were instead spent on developing battery technology (which is still primitive to this day), the world would've been a far safer, greener and cleaner place! Wow! How long it took for humans to realize the folly of our ways. Tsk tsk.
Then we would be talking about how bad power plants and battery s are for the environment. the best thing for the environment would be to live like native Americans. the only true way to save our planet. we should all go back to living off the land. having respect for the environment.
Ford had the money and power to stand up to any oil company!

Just another amazement from you!!! I have used up my words in all your previous videos, no more vocabulary left to praise your efforst and reasearch!!! Thank you for the information and Hats Off!!!
Great video, very informative, and a narrator with a great clear voice. Thanks !
Instant like
lol so that's where that squarespace ad came from 🤔
"Back to the Past".. I never thought i would use this phrase. Welcome back @ColdFusion, missed your videos for a while. Hope you built your home. And, thanks for all the efforts in the video making.
What a brilliant synopsis !
Thanks for enlightening me on such an amazing history!
Great vid!!
Could you maybe do a video on Li-Fi, and if it can replace wifi? I am curious to see your opinion.
Julian Lee-Sursin he already did i think
I saw the video, but it was released two years ago (exactly 2 years!) and since then, I haven't found it to be as popular as it should be considering we are talking cheap internet at much faster rates.
lifi can't pass through walls tho, it's a cool tech suited only for specific scenarios, for everyday use wifi will be much more versatile and thus better than lifi
Thanks!
The idea is you'd replace the bulbs in your house. Every room has one, so pass-through is unnecessary
Elon is finishing just everything that was started
With tax money. We will see how the modern electric green socialist cars stand against the "capitalist egoistic wishes" of the ordinary people ;-)
Musk is nothing more than a con man
@@sandervanderkammen9230 yes u r right... he is the biggest con man ever..... so expensive cars... and the planet earth will be dumped with old vehicle batteries all around.
@@fibboobbif socialism is when electric car
No he is just a puppet. That's why no one like him appeared in 90 years.
Your video's is so well made I'm amazed every time I watch one of your video's.
Keep up the good work
Amazing video and quality. Love all your videos 👍
Edison in 1800s: It'll not be long before everything's electric
Reality: Hold my beer..
singularity_is_unstoppable a. Reality: Wait till 2017 for the explanation video.
Edit;
Edison in 1800s: It'll not be long before everything's electric
Oil companies: Hold my beer...
Greedy oil companies just like today
electric power companies are greedy too.
simhopp they may be greedy but for a penny a charge on tesla cars i don't think we care hah
Lol you should look into how much Australian electrical charge. They are the greedy scum. Worse than oil companies.
*Greedy EV companies... Elon Musk is now worth $21 BILLION... you think he gives a shit about the environment? Only if it makes him another Billion!*
Frederick Röders *EVs are more harmful to the environment... they create more CO2 emissions and waste more energy.*
Brilliant channel. Glad I subbed....Professionally presented and informative...
Great video! Also + points for using American beauty remixed theme at 5:04 !! :) Very nostalgic.
One thing you didn't mention was the failed but fascinating attempt at flywheel-powered vehicles.
edit: Is there even any point in leaving a comment in a channel with this many users? I doubt anyone will even read this.
London transport experimented with spinning up flywheels in a vacuum with a motor generator back in the sixties. It was deemed unsafe due to the extreemly high rpm involved. Busses would extend a pole at certain stops and electricity spin up the flywheel with a motor generator. The motor generator would power the bus motor for several miles. When it slowed down the bus would spend a little extra time at a special stop and spin the flywheel back up again. After a trial period they dropped the program.
I read it.
Outtro song?
It´s always nice to see videos like this.
Amazing video! I’ve learn a lot. I may have been a step ahead of my social studies class.
I get a kick out of people putting down the electric car. The internal combustion engine has been obsolete for well over 30 years. As an example of of internal combustion efficency progression, a 1997 Camry V6A got 19 mpg US, a 2017 camry gets 24 mpg us. Look at what Tesla as done in 8 years
*Well, no one will ever accuse you of being an engineer...*
Looks like we got another gas lover living in the past. Same type of attitude that lots of people in the 90's had when someone suggested that in 10 or 15 years you could video chat, watch movies, GPS navigation and access more information than any library could hold on your cell phone. People said this is real life not startrek.
*Nah, just someone that understands the insurmountable **_Specific Energy_** limitations that will forever plague rechargeable battery technology.*
Yea, thats what they keep saying about all technologies. Dry cells, lead acid, alkaline, nicad, nimh, li-on, now supercapacitors are comin around. They say solar panel are a dead end technology but full spectrum panel, are now being developed, (producing usable energy at night, hehehe, even the sci-fi writers didn't think of that one. You say understand the, hehehe, insurmountable Specific Energy limitations that will forever plague rechargeable battery technology. you probably fell for the 2006 white paper that was written by a lawyer, hired by three oil companie to debunk ethanol. Yea, you better not blink, the world will pass you by.
*No, I just understand the Laws of Electro-Chemistry that regulate the limits of rechargeable battery performance... you might want to read a few books or work on that engineering degree before you continue to make a fool of yourself...*
Only 1880s kids will remember this
This video is put well together, great job!
Hi greatevideo.this is of your best type of videos where you explore history. thank you. question did you gind out what was the range of the old electric car? and how long did it take to charge?
Video starts at 1:15
Thanks
thanq
just want to say, THANK YOU TESLA
The person or the us company?
TAKE US TO MARS, BABY!
Zignas Ihmasmas
The founder and of course ELON!!
Tesla, the scientist, is way more worthy of appreciation than the company named after him
I hate Tesla!
Great video !! The ending came quite surprising this time. You should have went more into detail about what could happen.
I am in love with your videos bud. Initially I’d watch the whole documentary and then like it. Now it’s, open channel-play video-like video-and enjoy the video.
Brava
interesting no mention of Tesla until the end. I read how Nicola made a car run on electricity without batteries, but that seems fantastical though. Nice vid, cheers!
You are right sir but still he is omited from History books and this video ... Wondering why ...
You dont need batteries If you just use cables from the car to a normal electricity source....Its not rocket science
+Mary Juana I think he means wireless
Obviously battery technology wasn't good enough back then to power cars. The technology we have today is still only barely usable for cars.
Walter Black 620 miles, going at over 250 mph with a 0 to 60 of 1.9 seconds, and a cost of only 200k, is much better than gas cars
Lord Lima Bean wait until there are reviews out there that support that claim. So far there is not a glimpse of proof. But yeah batteries today get very good.
Telas overheat very quickly if you actually try to use that torque. Also, due to lack of gearing, they have horrible top end power. As for range, charging time is the real issue, not range. 620 mph is sufficient for an electric car, but only sufficient. Not impressive.
lobsterbark only sufficient? 620 miles is more than most internal combustion cars can do.
Yes, but it takes a few minutes to refuel an ICE. It takes hours to charge a car under ideal conditions, and around a day in some circumstances. 620 miles is sufficient for an electric car because its enough to allow for multiday roadtrips, as long as you stop to charge at night. Multiday roadtrips are common, and the ability to go on them would be missed compared to an ICE, but multiday roadtrips without stopping is not common at all, and won't be missed by most people.
300ish miles even is sufficient for an ICE because most people will never go that far without a gas station, and you would want to take a short break anyways. It doesn't hinder the normal use of a car. A range that short in an electric car would though, because you have to wait so long to charge.
Cheers! Thanks for the awesome vid
Love your videos bro! Keep up the good work!
batteries are still hardly good enough...
You are talking bulshit
Now I know why they say history repeats itself.
Well, according to George Orwell history doesn't repeat but rhymes.
This was a very informative video. Great job!
As Always another amazing video, Thank you! Hope all is well with your house now.
Is the title wrong???
NN
I also think now that you mention it it is more like a review of the development of cars focused on electric
kevin711497 I read it and i thought the same thing, but then I read it again and realized that it was correct. That is weird.
I️ read it wrong until I️ saw this comment and read it again
Read it over like 10 times then it made sense
21'st! (It's my 18th birthday today. I take it this is my present 🤣)
Bro_Flash happy birthday dude. Have a great one.
Happy Birthday man, be sure that you are special and don't forget to contribute for better world . peace
P.s English is not my native :)
Cheers for the very informative video mate. It was excellent. On a side note, nice song at 2.57. Just wondering were you picked it up from?
Nice history lesson very interesting
It's called the free market.....gasoline provided the muscle and cost electric could only dream about. Now electric is catching up, although quite slowly and the free market will decide the winner in the long run. Yes I know about the government rebates but those are only for a limited time when they go away the market will decide.
The market can and did push towards the wrong solutions, like in this case. It's the duty of governments to guide the market with incentives, rebates etc. toward the right solution.

really good video, thanks for sharing it.
Dagogo, you are doing an awesomely great job, been your fan for about 2yrs now.. i share your videos with my frnds in Nigeria. we enjoy all your videos everyday bro. i belive this is your calling.. kip it up
why did Elon Musk's company choose to name their company after Tesla when Edison was such a believer in an electric car.
Nothing 'funny' about it, back then all batteries were *Lead Acid* .. so just imagine all that Lead in this world! Now even the Li-ion batteries are DOA with Solid-state Li-ion or Na-ion or Mg-ion battery technology.
Let's not forget people in the early 1900's used to discard their dry cell batteries in their fireplace to reduce soot buildup in their chimney
Curtis Menzies
Well you should see how much pollution is created by current Li-ion batteries.
@@DJaquithFL that red herring has been debunked time and time again. Not to forget thay are also fully recyclable for use over and over again.
The batteries used in the first electric cars were nickle iron batteries. The plates never wore out. The bakelite cases would only last fifty years or so before they broke down and would start to leak. To this day railroad companies still use nickle iron batteries and often just bury them near the equipment they are operating. They are extremely robust.
Amazing as always!!
thanks , very good quality and information , keep up
Edison did invent (well he claimed he invented but it might have been one of his employees that he took the credit for) the NiFe cell which makes a very good, long lived and durable battery but like the lead acid battery it is very heavy, not really great for electric vehicles. Anyway EVTV has made the claim that an important cause for the abandonment of electric vehicles by the 1930's was the high cost of electricity which at the time was not competitive with the cost of gasoline per mile.
Batteries were shit and the electrical grid was in its infancy. Saved you 10 minutes
as were gasoline engines, oil refineries, and oil drilling methods.
Tesla could do it better than it is now. If they let him do it. But Edison and his greedy capitalist friends made sure the superior technology would not prevail.
Thx bae
Or maybe batteries still suck?
superior technology lol
Wow this is so interesting and cool
Thanks
The most educational channel hands down.
Edison couldn't do it, so Tesla did
Dusty Sprinkles yeah tesla motors
Not true (it takes a lot of muscle to hand crank early engines), my auto shop teacher demonstrated on a properly tuned hand crank car, took only a quarter turn to start. I call bullshit.
If the car was obliged to start on a single turn, but most of them weren't, especially not in the winter.
Yeah, after the engine is primed it fired on up to 1/2 of a turn
Love your videos bro you truly deserve more fan subs than what you have today..how ever keep up the good work mate!🖒🖒
Awesome like always coldfusion 👍👍👌

very informative video..... Thanks for the upload Degogo :)
Isn't it ironic that Edison worked to get electric cars mainstream, but a company named Tesla did it more effectively. Aah history!
electric cars are still not mainstream... they are still a tiny niche market
@@doktorbimmer many countries have given notice that operating new fossil fuel cars will not be licensed or allowed in the near future. That leaves battery electric, hydrogen fuel cell, or hydrogen burning internal combustion engines as the only power choices available in the near future.
+John Livesey *Although several countries have made claims as such, Few if any countries have actually passed legislation... as this would simply be economic suicide.*
Hey man, I was going to make a RUclips video on this much before u , but now no one cares huh...
You're still more than welcome to make the video!
Love your Music Choice ♥♥♥ Deep House
Hats off! Great video
electric cars dont go wroom. making them inferior ;)
Gas cars have a transmission making them inferior. Needing to switch gears.
Do airplanes have gears? Do ships/boats? Do trains? No. Most of them don't.
Wroom equals inefficiency, making combustion cars inferior. In the 19th century the noise was seen as something bad from everyone and so it will be in some decades.
Jay Starr they do though
Jay Starr swiching gears is fun :)
That 'wroom' is the sound of wasted energy.
Great video, I really enjoyed it. Thanks!
Worth watching, thanks to cold fusion
