So, a cyber truck battery holds around 450,000 watt-hours of energy at full charge. The generator looks on the smallish side, perhaps 2KW max output. (Giving the benefit of the doubt) He is also likely using the "low power" charger to charge the truck. (Usually around 16A for approximately 2KW output, (if that) assuming maximum efficiency of the generator and charger.) A generator at max load will likely only run 4-6 hours with a 1-gallon tank. He's also running the trailer....
How many hours would one have to run to replenish even a half-used battery? (Hint: ~112 hours depending on state of charge and generator demand) How much gas can that little generator hold? How many times would one have to refill that generator, and most important, does it have to run all day and night, annoying all of his neighbors? Not to mention how many sleep cycles will be broken.
But have to say, the truck looks cool.![]()
It was charging for days!
