Terrific job Robert! You've really made a difference getting peoples interested in EVs. Great shows about
renewables. Sensational with creating Fully Charged Live. Congrats to everyone on your team. Keep up the good work.
All this positive movement and energy on FullyCharged for 10 years. Can't wait for the next 10!
I love the show. I cant wait to watch each episode when they are released. Thanks to you Robert and the entire team for the amazing content.
Happy Birthday to you and to your team. Also, Thank you for becoming and remaining a beacon of hope in a world that seem stuck in 19 century. Again, congratulation to Fully Charged !!!
Happy 10th birthday, love the show great content and look forward to every post. Here’s to another 10 years 🥳
Robert and the team can be very proud of the huge amount of knowledge you have shared with so many people over the last 10 years. You inspire us to do more to make the world a cleaner greener place. Since I began watching your channel, I've installed rooftop solar and my next car will be an EV. I'm looking forward to future episodes and all the important information that your channel will share. Thank you.
Nicely cobbled together Robert. All the bother about Green Number plates ! Had um for ever here in Québec and nobody blinks and eye. The ICE vehicles have blue letters and white background, the EV's, green letters and white background. It's especially handy where there is free parking for EV's and no charge on car ferries etc.
thank you Robert, you are a wonderful person, keep up the good work, we need you very much
Thank you 😊 For giving us such a great and informative show. Just love it 😀
Been watching for 2 years. Now have my first ev and love it. Thanks for helping me through making the right decisions. Invaluable and hugely entertaining.
It's very much our pleasure!
Robert, if you get an induction hob (frameless is best I think as the frames can rust from steam & any pots boiling over), you won't regret it. My landlord installed a stove with one (think his missus wanted a wall mounted jobby to counteract her arthritis & just happened to coincide with my needing a new stove) & I'd NEVER EVER want to go back to anything else. Super efficient, super quick to heat up & cool down, super easy to clean - just buy some Hob Brite & wipe down with damp cloth, use ceramic/induction hob specific scraper for occasional tricky to get of stuff. Absolutely wonderful.
10 years folower here❤
Happy Birthday every one!!!
Seeing the cake all I can think about “stop burning stuff”😂
mrfiaskus1 I see someone complaining about a pedantic issue in a RUclips comment thread during a celebration stream, and wonder why they aren’t telling the people causing the real problem much further up the chain instead of trying to piss on a decent guy’s bonfire. 🤷♂️
Thanks Robert & team. Love the show and really looking forward to the FC live show coming to my hometown Amsterdam next year. Hurray and keep it coming.
Thanks Robert! Keep on going 💪😄
I have also been here since for years! and i am very happy about that! congratulations!!
Congratulations on the 10th anniversary :-) - I enjoy following the show and podcast and I have done this for approx. 3 years.
Always great entertainment watching you Robert live broadcasting
Happy birthday.. It has been a while since we've had a Robert rant, it really makes my day, hopefully there will be one soon.
Robert will be 65 next march
Happy birthday! Following from Luxembourg!
Personally, I am not a big fan of the ranting when he gets really loud. I don't want to hear someone shouting on RUclips. I am fine with ranting in general though.
Happy 10 years. I've been a fan of Fully Charged for some time and I didn't realize you were Kryten on Red Dwarf for most of it.
Great 10th Anniversary show Robert.
Here’s to the next ten years! 😊👍🏻
Congratulations Robert and team, We love FC!
It was because of your enthusiasm for the iMiev you had that I took my courage in both hands and bought a second-hand iOn 18 months ago. Never looked back! iOn has now been joined by a 7-seater NIssan ENV200, plus solar and a Zappi. Oh, and an e-bike and an e-trike (I fall off bikes). Next step will be battery storage. Then we'll think about heating .... Then maybe wind power .......... I want our grandchildren to be proud of us.
*_Thanks Robert. Here's to the next ten years. Who can even guess what will have happened by then? Whatever does transpire, it will be exciting, and I hope that we're both still around to share in the experience._*
Thank You Robert!
Started watching this on Twitter. Absolutely hilarious but not because we could all laugh at you Robert, merely with you (commiserations). It's so good to know that we're not the only ones who 'accidently press' the wrong technology button and remain bamboozled for ages as to why we can't get the damn thing to work; except we can swear profusely & threaten to throw the said piece of technology at the wall or complain to Amazon or Argos about wanting a refund because it's 'their' fault that the product 'doesn't' work! 🤪🤣
Congratulations 🎉 👏👌
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO EWE! From a Kiwi. Here's to the next 10 years, thank you Robert and team.
Thanks for the most informative show on the internet related to the emerging electric revolution.
I really appreciate your work coming to the channel a short time ago.
Congratulations to everyone involved with FCS. Your show reminds me of Tomorrows World.
Tremendous to achieve 10 years, the exponential growth in all this is to come! I’ve got a Tesla 3 ordered and I know in 10 years it will seem prehistoric!
Congratulations Great work, well done and Thank You/
I’m here! Thanks for the shout out Rob. Never too busy and successful to be watching fully charged. 🙌🏼😁. Gone from strength to strength, so good to see. Congratulations.
I was a fan of Car Pool and have been watching Fully Charged since episode 1. In those early days it seemed to be a struggle to find EV news but you did it. So thank you. Looking forward to the mountain of EV news in the next 10 years.
I has been awesome watching your Fully Charged shows!
You do great work Robert, please keep it up ... it is working! People are becoming more environmentally conscious despite out governments. Environmentally conscious is also "Big Business" as more and more of the world populations embraces their climate reality ... sadly "big business" is where complete change happens ... we get smarter "big business" provides the products WE want.
I just went back and watched the first episode, you haven't changed a bit Robert hahahaha ok maybe a little but it was a great show non the less!
A fully Happy Birthday to fully charged and hope to see more sparkling electrical present 4 all of Us
Oh, c'mon, not another desk-bound address. Take it on the road, or afield, and let the magic happen!
FC is an interesting program, looking forward to the next 10 years full of discoveries on EV and new electricity.
Great show, thanks for all the hard work!
From Trinidad & Tobago Happy birthday
Zapheap challenge: Now electrifying an excavator! Congratulations on your jubilee!
Happy Birthday, I can’t believe it’s been 10 years!
Simply the best 🙏🏻👍🏻
A lovely battenberg. Happy birthday Fully Charged and well done to you, Robert and the team.
When you speak to Toyota ask them how they have not been taken to task about their latest claim - 'Experience the power of Hybrid Electric. 54% Travel time in electric mode'. Seriously!!! They say that during test drives 54% of the journey is completed in electric mode. I am sure they have improved but my four year old RAV 4 it could manage 2 miles on battery power. So that means their test drive has to be around four miles. However, the petrol engine must be run in between test drives to recharge the battery. Would have been much quicker if they plugged it in!
666K subscribers in 10 years.
Good stuff!! :D
You're a funny fecker Robert. Thanks for the great info, educating me over the past 10 years and the laughs.
watching you blow out candles is both the saddest and happiest thing ive seen this week =P congrats on 10 years.
love your show. keep it up. change is coming Robert....
Congratulations & well done Robert & team! A decade of effort and now the World's largest Electric You Tube community - richly deserved! I am a full 'Carbon neutral ambition' convert!
VERY Happy birthday - keep up the awesome work!!
Need to get a fully electric ice cream van and get a choir to sing for the ices? Not quite the same...)
Congrats! Well done! Robert you are a gem! Keep up the good work all of you and I find it an awesome idea to have correspondents all over the world. Please put on the outfit from Scrapheap and show a clip from there as a little brief on what you used to be up to. Looking forward to the electric version! Just a thought I had today is that it is in countries interest to reduce money flowing out of the country on oil imports to instead spend the money inside the country on locally produced energy.
Congrats from India 🇮🇳!!!!
Happy Birthday fully Charged!
The title of Robert's memoir, "I have had Cameras EVERYWHERE: A Man Revealed"
Amazing! Happy Birthday FC^^
Battenberg cake for the win! And Fully Charged for the win too! Happy Birthday Robert!
Happy Birthday., Watching since Carpool. We have had are conversations on Twitter but without different opinions we would not have change. Keep the show going. x
It's your party and you can cry if you want to. I fully appreciate your show and efforts.
Happy Fully Charged Birthday!!!!!
I don't know why RUclips recommended this to me so late, so I'm rather late to the party, but congratulations and I loved the little chat with everyone you did to celebrate. Brilliant.
Might not get a reply to this being so late. "But Robert" a few years back I remember you saying you had done a poll on what viewers preffered to see, you said the result was more or less 50-50 EVs and Renewable technologys. Since then I'd hazard a guess 85% of FC shows have been about EV's. Since we are now 10 years in, can you now go back and look at how the UK has moved on in terms of grid diversity and the state of green manufacturing in the UK? How well have we done since those early episodes on companys like britwind and what they are doing in the orkneys? How much storage does National Grid have and how much more is coming? Giga Factorys in the UK, Tesla enetering the energy market, what does all this mean for actual grid hardware and future job transistions? Thanks for all the hard work from you and the Fully Charged Team.
Solar panels, home battery or EV? - question in live stream:
* Solar panels will reduce your electricity bill by around £120 pa and pay you around £600 for generated electricity. So financially this takes around 10 years to pay for itself.
* An electric car costs around 1.5p per mile in fuel, if solar panels this becomes 0p per mile, as a good car charger can be set to only charge using solar. Difference of capital cost of BEV battery is offset by fuel savings, how long this takes depends on your annual mileage.
* Home battery cost more than £10k to install with the only savings being your electricity bill, consider this later.
* I also heat hot water using the electric emersion heater in my hot water tank, this has a control on it that only heats water from solar PV.
Congratulations; and thanks for ten years of very inspiring videos!
6% per year for 10 years is Approximately 182% improvement. 😀❤
Robert, you and your fellow presenters are inspiring; keep up the good work. A question for you and the team with potentially huge implications. Why can’t my Tesla EV be my Powerwall? I can charge from Solar, I can charge from cheap night tariffs, but why should I need a 14kWh Powerwall when I have a 100kWh battery sitting in the garage? It’s nuts!
Great show as always, I am trying my hardest to convince people that electric cars are going to be here in Australia in a big way and get different responses all the time . I have twin 5kw solar systems and a LG battery that makes me look forward to getting power bills. Your comment about insulation was great I'm slowly changing my windows to double glazing and installing a new car port with solar to charge my cybertruck when it arrives. Meanwhile I am awaiting the LDV MAXUS EV to get to Australia. Thanks . Wayne
On H2 fuel cells, have you covered the CSIRO (Australian science group) development of an efficient and fast catalysed ammonia cracker? Shipping H2 as ammonia doesn't need to be cryogenic, and carries more H2 for the volume than liquid H2 does because of its density. So, safe(ish) and high capacity shipping and local reforming to H2 for cars.
Sharing my birthday with Fully Charged. Nice way to start the day.
fantastic channel - great job to all
Looking forward to your Electric scooter episode. We have hire e-scooters where I live in Germany from a firm called Tier. They are all connected to the internet so you just need to download the AP, give your payment details and off you go. The Ap puts the available scooters on a google map and how much charge each one has, also the area where you can use them. You start them by scanning a QR code on your phone then following the instructions. They travel at up to 22kph but where the speed limit is below that they automatically limit their speed to whatever that is. When you are finished with them you can just leave them at the side of the street at your destination. The good things about them is they are convenient and there are plenty of them around. They also make up for the terrible bus service here. The downside is the price €1 then 19 cents per minute of use. The breaks are a bit tricky when going down hill also.
That's so funny, I really enjoyed Junkyard Wars as a kid, and always felt Robert looked vaguely familiar but I couldn't quite place where I'd seen him before till now!
What about electric candles? without smoke! 😁
I was expecting exactly the same. Good I am not alone.
Celebrating 10 years of fully charged by burning fossil fuel! I like it.
Happy Birthday 👍👍👍👍👍
A fantastic chat session, congrats for the 10th Fully Charged Show anniversary 😎👍
Happy birthday 🥳. Could you possibly do take 4 ! Using battery candles? Keep up the great work.
I find the honesty of your broadcast very entertaining! More burping and the occasional flabby woof woof please
I got a Mixergy tank after your episode - can't get anyone near me to install it properly. The whole fancy part of it isn't operational. Think twice before going for these new things when there aren't any installers who know how to do it. It's my fault of course - am hoping eventually some day to get it done
:-)
So excited about a new kinda scrapheap! Old scrapheap was great in its day, but that presenter was terrible! I hope you never saw him get excited when someone got hold of a v8 petrol engine. I'm almost embarrassed to remember how warm and fuzzy his impressions of that delicious engine burble made me feel. I'm glad you turned up to teach us a better way forward :)
Happy 11th birthday Robert.
Robert. this channel is amazing. I hope you are still doing this in another 10 years but if you are not I hope the reason is that the EV/Sustainable Energy/Climate issues have improved so much that the channel is no longer needed. I also would like to add that your older episodes are a real treasure trove of the past Ten years. I love going back to older episodes to see what Legacy auto was promising 7yrs ago compared to what they have done currently. I have to say most of their records are shameful. Anyway im pouring a lager in your honour..
Hydrogen - Have another word with Bjorn! Norway had two plants, one blew up, the other was scrapped before IT blew up!
Congrats.
Great show
Hi Robert
Our old gas boiler failed last November and I invested in a electric boiler and it works fine like a gas boiler but quieter. One technology I would like to know more about is thermodynamics ( water heating ) can’t find any definitive results of kWh out compared to kWh in ,
Big trucks in UK and US get an extra couple of tons/tonnes gross weight allowance. This will probably more than offset the additional weight of the batteries.
Looking forward to your next ten, fully charged as a teenager! Rebel, Bobby 🤪
Whatever the technical problems Happy Birthday FC !!
Great show, always enjoy it, Happy 10th Birthday.
You were clearly ahead of your time. If you pitched the show to auntie beeb now I am sure you would get picked up. Loving the show especially the new China content
I've been seeing quite a few Hyundai Nexo(hc) here in SK.
DPD (parcel delivery) have committed to no more diesels. Already have a deal for Nissan vans and some bigger trucks.
Happy birthday 🎂
Happy birthday.
I'd say that the Sono Motors concept of solar-powered vehicles is perhaps targeted at the wrong type of vehicle.
Because I was looking at some large delivery vans and mini-buses the other day, and considering that, you know, there's possibly a good 8 metres squared of roof space on top there for solar.
Like 8 metres squared of solar panels ain't that much shy of what some folks have on their small terraced houses. It's not an insignificant amount of roof space going spare up there on top of these big vans, mini-buses and RVs (as the Americans like to call them).
Granted, it's flat roof space and a solar panel laid down flat ain't as productive as one that's angled towards the Sun - but, as you say, the Sono Motors concept is not really that you're powering the vehicle solely from the solar, but rather the idea that when you've got it parked up on a sunny day, there's a trickle of electricity going back into the batteries.
Or, particularly with RVs, which seems the most obvious vehicle for a solar roof, because it's basically a mobile home and why not have solar on the roof of your mobile home, just as you might have on your not-mobile home? In that case, you could see the solar as not really being about powering the vehicle - though if it's a sunny day and you're parked up for a while, it could certainly help with that - but about powering the "mod cons" on board your RV / caravan / mobile home (and if there's any excess beyond that then it can, indeed, go towards generating some extra miles of range too).
In the same way that it makes sense for delivery vans to be electric - as they do lots of starting and stopping - I think it also makes sense - though perhaps not so obviously so - to have solar on the roofs of these vans. Because a van has quite a lot of roof space, typically. And, like, as the van is parked up, so that it can unload its cargo, the solar can be popping a few more metres into the battery, which if you're doing a lot of stops along a street of houses, might be all you need to go from one home to the next.
And, from a business perspective, there's the idea that a solar van can never get stuck anywhere. If it were to run out of battery in the middle of nowhere - though, yes, it would take a careless driver for that to ever happen - then wait a few hours to build up enough range from the solar to "limp" to the nearest charger.
No, you can't run a vehicle entirely from solar on the roof, but the argument is much the same as with solar at home - what else is all that roof space doing anyway? You might as well get some solar up there, as it's not exactly doing anything else, beyond keeping the rain off your head. And on a van or a truck or a bus, no-one can even see the roof, typically.
I hope that the Sono Motors concept becomes just a standard thing on any and every electric. That there's just always a layer of thin film solar on the roof, because why not?
This could alleviate people's "range anxiety" that, actually, no electric can get permanently stuck anywhere. That, with solar, it can always "limp" along to the nearest charger. Clearly, not ideal - but then you should have made sure not to let the battery go completely flat in the first place - but just that underlying reassurance that if you did ever get stuck in the middle of nowhere, wait a few hours in the sunshine and maybe get back a mile or two of "limp range" to reach somewhere more useful. As a "last resort backup plan".
At the time of watching this video the grid is powered by 45.6% gas, so the emissions have changed that much Robert, just saying!
Thank YOU!
Do you find the interior quality is better and better sound insulated for electric cars? being so silent i wonder if you would hear more road noise/ wheel hum
Happy anniversary!
