Tesla's new motors are revolutionary in their energy efficiency. I wonder if the technology is applicable to generators? Whatever you use to turn the generator shaft, a 2% increase in efficiency means heat dissipation is reduced and the equipment will run longer.

Can you imagine when 50 million of these cars are produced annually and being wrecked and bodies wearing out what can be done with these motors and battery packs to make all kinds of projects?

Gale I think you are right.

Those big KWH packs Are going to find their way into home storage and power back up, tied in with inverter and solar set ups.
They will also be used for all kinds of motorized use for the do it yourselfers. I have been watching the wrecked Chevy Volts at auctions which had ~15-18 KWH packs , but down the road the Tesla's sound really good with their high amp hour packs.

They get a few million cars on the road and it is inevitable, Totaled cars will really start showing up in the wrecking salvage yards at reasonable prices.
