anyone got a 30 mile extension cord ...

Guessing even a cs100 probably needed the electric equivalent of 7kw 3 phase to cope with loading.

 

Anything larger will need a Tesla style battery, but none of them like heavy draws, sipping yes as they discharge but not like a starter motor setup.

 

Unless you went shaft shredder for example to remove the flywheel requirement in favour of a gearbox.

The CS100 was mains driven but the application was wrong from the outset, the rep didn't know what he was doing and wouldn't listen to experience - we converted it back to petrol!

Same with the vehicles.  Elctric cars everywhere, superb charging network and there “used” to be concessions for el car owners.  Such as zero vat, use of buss and taxi lanes etc.  they have slowly relinquished those now.

 

My own thought on this…. In order to compensate for the huge amount of fossil fuels the Norwegian Industries (Oil/gas) require to refine they have such green initiatives to reduce the Carbon Footprint.

 

It's more akin to the Gestapo getting let off providing they learn Hebrew.
