Edison is revolutionizing the trucking industry by going old school with new technology
No they are not... Try being reserved for a bit. Fan boi's do no good. Their advertising burn rate is 3x higher than it should be for not having a product.
They have a product?@@ShainAndrews
Bobby should consider becoming an installer of Edison Motors kits!!
Who want to buy a 150k truck the. Put another 150k or more into the truck for more the. Likely less reliability and more headache
@@dill5500 I guess this isn't for you.
How long have you been following Edison Motors? 🤔
@@dill5500 Your stupid
I like the tag line, "Stealing Tesla's Idea". Keeping the memory alive of Edison stealing ideas from his inventors and claiming them for himself. That guy was a piece of work.
Thanks for sharing Ms.Nikki. Hope things are progressing w/ repairs on BD1 aka Silver Bullet. Happy day to U all!
❤ how cool you could visit with Edison...been following them for a while....great idea, hope it works out for them ...
Thx Dominique ❤
This is close to how locomotives work. The biggest difference is that locomotives don't use battery packs.
Diesel-electric propulsion is nothing new. It was used already in the 1930's. Almost all big cruise ships - and even smaller ships today use the system and here we talk about really big power. Some big earthmoving machines also use it. Like on locomotives - a lot more practical than mechanical drive and more fuel efficient than hydrostatic drive.
But without batteries you don't have a hybrid.
i love fallowing him building his trucks, thanks
damn didnt expect this collab 👍👍👌
Edison has put alot of thought into the daily operation needs of their product
Thanks for sharing Dauminique! I’ve been following Edison for a while, and they’re developing a very strong alternative for operators to consider in the future!
It was good listening to experienced trucker to experienced trucker compare notes about what is needed for a useful truck.
Great interview , Hopefully Silver Bullet rolls again soon. 😀
As long time Tesla fanboi/investor--this gave me big smiles.
Tesla semi charging only needed half as often for half as long.
Awesome!¡!! You go girl!!
Welcome to Canada Great video Thanks
Im not gonna lie to anyone. I was not thinking i would like Edison motors, but i love his concept. Modern tech in an old school rig. You even get the diesel sound with the “on board generator”. Thats cool tesla should take notes
Awesome rig ,❤❤❤❤❤
Welcome back after a while ❤, good job
Thanks that's some real good News Love It
Thanks!!! for the video
You bet!
and youre with Carl.... the 1st truck
Two of my favorite channels!!!
Excellent content! Even if it is uncertain what the future will be regarding drivelines, it is always good to check out the alternatives.
Ps. When in Canada, it would be fun to see you check out a cabover so we get your view on the different options.
Wow you made it to Canada !!
Welcome to Canadian, cool video, pun intended.
Realizing this is a testbed truck, trying out ideas, experiencing concepts to see what unforeseen problems and solutions. Its part of problem solving and progress.
Like your video and your Truck
My boss is buying me a new Peterbilt Simple 16
With an allison automatic, I've been driving Truck for 40 years , My left hip is about wore out.
Excellent video!
Down to earth!
Very good job shooting and editing!
I wish I had your creator skills! Anything I produce takes tons of effort on my part. 😢
They might not let you out of Canada.😅
They need someone for my truck in Vancity and she can still commute👍🇨🇦🇺🇸
They're working on a hybrid pick up too. We've enjoyed watching the process of converting to a hybrid and whats truly amazing no involvement from Canadian Government who have been throwing money around to anyone except proper Canadian innovaters. An FSC Trucking is making progress on the big Ford. Lots of great content.
Wow you in Canada 🇨🇦 I live in Canada Toronto
I drove one of the last LWs made by Canadian Kenworth it had an 8V92 T/A with a 13 speed and a 4 speed "A" box
The whole idea around an Electric Truck is to Eliminate conventional Transmissions and differntials .. Put an electric Motor on each wheel Eliminate all of the drive shafts Just like Oshkosh Military Trucks and Letourneau off road trucks and Diesel Locomotives do .
They had diesel electric trucks in open pit mines years ago. I ran a 120 ton Lectra-Haul in Port Hardy, Island Copper, in 73.
I think he was meaning over the road.
How much battery is involved in Lectra-Haul? Are they not just a variation of modern locomotives with a generator driving a motor? Even if this unit was was operated three shifts/day there would be a little fuel saved with regenerative braking.
@@wssides The diesel engine drove a generator that supplied power to electric motors in each set of wheels. Thus 4 electric motors.
Exactly. So quite different than this one which can run a shift on battery power and be recharged from plug-in, solar panel, wind charger or the on board diesel powered generator. @@wallytimmins356
Please do a follow up video. This was a great video.
Like a big mine dumptruck
The all electric trucks would make since in shipping yards where they only work 8 hr shifts and able to switch trucks to charged ones when needed
Thanks Dauminique. That was very interesting. Hope it works out for them . Hope you also find out something on your own truck.Good Luck.
I hope so too
Well that worked out well 🤔
I need a truck that will run 24/7 ,but great video that guy is very smart on his part
Thanks for taking us on this trip. Get's my head spinning. What about putting a manual transmission behind an electric motor? Would you have an amp meter instead of a tachometer? Pipe in some noises like we are familiar with to have an audio feedback of what is going on under the hood?
Seems like a torque sensor connected to a limiting feedback circuit would save from snapping drivelines in the first Edison truck?
Nice presentation Daum. Found out I live only 100 KMS away in Kamloops from this place. I am looking forward to watching your test drive on Y-Tube.
Way cooler then a tesla semi though
so how was your trip to canada was your first time here 🥰🥰🚚
Looks promising!
You do not lose torque with an extension as a rule, yes it does affect an impact gun because of how an impact makes it’s torque, but a vehicle does not have an impact as an engine so they do not suffer the same loss with a driveshaft.
You are saying that it is safe to use a 36" extension to stand back from your work when torquing cylinder head bolts?
@@wssides Never said anything about it being safe, but the torque is not reduced at the end of the extension if it is used with a torque wrench, now you will have flex in that extension which will cause you to have to turn the torque wrench more degrees to attain the torque setting.
Wow theve updated the truck it was silver and they changed out the hood grill. It really looks so much more like a truck now
There was an diesel electric Peterbilt truck a the MATS in Louisville around 10 years ago. It had a John Deere genset powering the electric drive. It was way ahead of its time.
Any batteries? 🤔
@@dans_Learning_Curve I don't recall if there were any batteries. The truck was converted by a small company try to sell the idea of diesel electric drives. I never saw the truck again.
Hell Yeah
Hey how do you like Canada? Very pretty eh!
So Dominic, so where in the sea? Where are you? I've been up that way many times soh your first time being snowy a lot. I'm doing a lot. I know I'm not snowing so I don't like it I'm from Winnipeg. I love snow. And I love your videos in a very old railroad on the contact and it's perfect. I'm very happy all freaking track fixed
Great company I wish Edison well
Same
Case & point 👉☝️
wished you could have see the actual prototype that is going to be the based version. maybe next time you could bring your husband and have a look at the real deal! maybe even convert a truck yourself in 1 or 2 years
haha I have zero plans to convert my truck
@@DauminiqueTheDumpTruckDriver he said something like... when you try electric, its hard to go back... ;p anyway its not ready yet!
What is it up here, she asked? Music - have to love this
Never will it be zero emissions. Just scrapping it out causes huge pollution
who cares
0@@timb4569
True Tim
People complain about the oil sands, but they need to peek at a lithium mine.
Mining lithium for battery is more harmful than any fuel operating vehicle ever, but of course, all you liberal sheep's wouldn't have the education to know true facts
Let’s run one in a commercial environment for one year get back to us.
Did you see any Jamie Davis Towing wreckers working the Coquihalla on your way to Merritt?
No I didn’t. Chase did invite me to come along later that evening to help pull people out but I had to get home.
Ok the gloves are off lol “I’m not a school bus driver, I’ve got real work to do” until you’ve experienced a full bus load of children and the ignorant driving public, you haven’t experienced anything 😂❤ love your vids. Cheers from the West Coast of Canada 🇨🇦
haha I was talking about the split shift. I give a lot of respect to people who do that job, I couldn’t.
27:05 here we go again
Hard for me to imagine a log truck with no transmission
My grandma's motor scooter gets low emissions too! But it runs.
I am not sure what your point us.
That's something that will work. Is waiting for the rest of the world to catch up. One of the best, most feasible set ups to come down the pike.
Maybe a Edison motors truck ?
John Deere is introducing a diesel-electric tractor this summer. Like railroad locomotives. Should be more efficient than hydrostatic transmissions.
Hydrogen fueled engines look a far better alternate power solution for vehicles and equipment that have to do long shifts. Check out what JCB are doing in regards to this, they're putting a massive amount of development in to it with some really interesting results.
I've been saying for years. That I could go from Pa. to Ca. for $20 in gas. For a car that is. 1000W generator to keep the batteries charged when they need it only. Auto start for the generator. You wouldn't need as many batteries. And no charging stations.
I would like to have some of those solar panels on the roof of my house
What's stopping you?
Pick up an oldish vintage, truck to convert over to your next fleet truck? Make it a habit to come up to grab the odd Diesel or hybrid... have to call it Mad Beaver disease [the official animal of Canada being the Beaver]. :-)
interesting 4 sure ...but huge concern might be compensating for the loss of compression brake (Jake) that a log truck driver needs when rolling down mountain roads ..but this is a prototype so sure it will be addressed
Tons of braking Regen.
Regenerative braking is far better than Jake brake.
Who can work on them in the NW if they break down ?
Anyone, it’s a generator.
What a disaster. Couldn’t even make sure it worked beforehand.
About like a train Engine.
I don't care what the video is about as long as it has Dauminique in it ❤❤❤❤❤❤ great video though not gonna lie😊
Dauminique does this mean you’re going to buy an edison motors truck??? If you do will you keep the dump bed off your old truck and pup or get a new dump bed and pup???
No, I just like equipment. I thought I would share it with all of you.
Hey dude bro girl your grey dump truck it needs a to be painted it black with American flag racing flames on the whole thing and then you need to put spinners on your dumb truck and then you need to throw on spitting flame thrower flaming exhaust system onto your dump truck and then throw onto your dump truck the whole worldest loudest train horns onto your dump truck and then throw on your dumb truck rock lights under the truck and then throw on your dump truck under Glowing lights on the thing and then throw on your dump truck LED lights of the headlights and taillights.
topsy passes a cop in reverse doing 140mph that cop would crap his pants so fast
with ted nuggent behind the wheel
How much torque?
The 2 models they offer are 68,400 (670hp) and 102,600 (1005hp) triaxle
Interesting 😊😊😊 12:38
So where were you in Canada, Dominic, dominic? So so what is your first time being in canada
Merritt BC
Dauminique, would you ever consider a hybrid truck? Idk it seems just not worth it.
That guy was way ahead of his time so he deserves a lot of credit. But you both agree that all electric doesn't work in trucks, plus as he said, it's not any "greener" than his hybrid rig. I'm old and have no desire to own any electric vehicle. I'll be waiting for your video of you trying out his rig when it's ready. Yeah, and it sucks your insurance company is still dicking you around. Quick to take your money and slow to pay your claim. Typical insurance company bs though. Hope you hear something soon so you can get your baby back and ready for the upcoming season !!
You finally meet willie coyote genuis. The one the down hill logger canadian i think, single center seat made is alot better than this one 😊😊😊
That truck charged going down hill with load, might auctually work
I think I heard him say that regenerative braking is part of the set-up.
I love the 'ironic' name. Edison Motors. And the perfect tag-line, "Stealing Tesla's Ideas" Just like the actual Edison stole the actual Tesla's ideas, and we all pay for electricity ever since. 🤣
How much net weight are we loseing for this idea
Like he said in the video the truck lost weight.
What bring you to Canada 🇨🇦
Answer in the video. 🤔
🤔🤔🤔
Will they work for dump trucks
Yes
@@DauminiqueTheDumpTruckDriver awesome. That will be interesting to see. I have heard it’s tricky bringing vehicles/ trucks from Canada into the U.S ? Never done it that’s just what heard ? It’s easier with a broker than without.
@@nathanmacdonald6696 I don’t know how it works
to bad he didnt jump start the truck. You drove all that way. Hybrid is the only way to go for the trucking industry.
Looks bad. When truck wont work or headlights. 😮😮 Try telling them ahead of time. A liitle prep would be good. This reminds me of tje song CLASSIFIED by cw mc call😅😅😅😅😅
This is just the test bed, parked till another refinement needs tested.
What I am seeing is that you are going to have reduced hauling weight also.
Why? less truck weight after the retrofit + EV extra load capacity, Chase says that in multiple videos, it has now a bigger capacity
Just remember children a little older than Remi are digging the precious metals to make the batteries. I’m sorry we are not there yet. Maybe fifty years. An electric car catches fire. It takes 8 hours to put the fire out. I can’t imagine how long it would take to put that truck fire out. Sorry I’ll say it again we are not their yet.
While I agree with you on pretty much everything you said, this is a hybrid. Don’t you want innovation that is done by the people and not big government funded mega corporations? The government is pushing electric vehicles don’t you want an alternative?
@@DauminiqueTheDumpTruckDriver Yes but there is more weight and less power in that truck now with all the batteries. As I said we are not in a position to put these on the road. Why would anyone except a liberal mind that 5 year olds are digging for the precious metals. The batteries are only good for 5 years at best. What do we do with the old batteries. Just run with what we have.
@@user-hb4ed8ej1r There aren't enough 5 year olds in the world to supply us with the quantity of Cobalt that we are currently using, so NO, 5 year olds are not mining Cobalt. Every major company in the world is sourcing their Cobalt from Responsible sources that do not use Child Labor. Interestingly, there is more Cobalt used in the refining industry than is used in all the worlds Electric Vehicles. Additionally, the Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries, like will be used in future Edison trucks, do not contain any Cobalt, so any concerns about child labor are moot if the batteries are Lithium Iron Phosphate.
Another note: Cobalt is being used less, and less, in Electric Vehicle batteries, as a matter of fact, 50% of Tesla's EVs are using Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries.
@@bbcooter388 really we are watching two different news sources then. It is not just kobalt being mined. Again after the battery dies what happens to it? We do not need electric cars in America. The infrastructure cannot handle it. Electric cars and trucks belong on train platforms! Not on our roads. America is the cleanest country in the world because of the emission standards.
@@user-hb4ed8ej1r The batteries in EVs are 90% to 95% recyclable. There are several companies that are currently recycling EV and other Lithium batteries, Redwood Materials and Li-cycle are two that come to mind. Additionally, many EV batteries have a second life in Grid Power battery systems as well as Off-Grid Solar systems. Many off-grid Solar systems are using the Tesla battery modules to store energy. I even have two Tesla batteries in my RV to store Solar energy and to power my Inverter.
By-the-way, I drive an EV and my wife and I thoroughly enjoy driving it. I recommend you at least take a test drive in one before you completely discount their validity.
What part of Canada are you in ?
Merrit BC
Canada 🇨🇦 ehhh
Why Why Why would you ever not have this thing ready to run? He knew you were going to be there?
It's a train on wheels.
It could be used that way BUT it can also be on charge during down time if it is a single operator truck. Like the hybrid cars and pickups.
So you are not getting a electric truck because it's powered by a cat diesel engine 😂 where's the benefit just turn up the fuel and hammer down. Cat's forever.roll the coal.💯🎯👍😁😂🤣
I agree
What is the benefit? Just stick with diesel.
The engine only runs about 1/3 of the time. Much more torque with electric motors driving it.
Zero emissions is a fantasy.
And I don’t think I know of a truck that is used 4 or 5 years and thrown it away. Causes me to wonder where the old trucks we love came from……
