Yeah sometimes I leave it on the news channels or CNBC for hours but every channel has them!
If you changed the TV channel and don't know what channel you changed it to you can always hit the info button or channel guide!
I just see no use for them! The networks can all put identifier info hidden in the picture that is not always in the corner and always on top!
Even the news scroll or stock scroll can cause burn in! The early OLED sets were really bad and even though the new sets have better burn in tech you can still get it! Even in certain games! I have seen shots of it even in this group!

Yeah but until they make channel bugs illegal I won't buy one! Burn-in sucks!

I look at this at solving a big problem in multiple ways! It would eliminate you having to drop 20 grand plus to replace battery car batteries!
It may help the power storage issues with solar and wind! And it may keep millions of lithium batteries out of the landfills!
Seems like scalability may not be a big issue because it could mesh right in with the way we make the millions of batteries that are currently being made!
It also help save some rain forest destruction for Lithium mining!

Great post and very informative! I think that states like Texas will need longer range batteries! People who live in some parts of Texas will drive hours just to go to the grocery store!
We all know Texas is big right. It is really brought home when you drive out there! I drove out there for a job I was working on and you think you are maybe a few hours away after you hit the eastern border but you are days away! Now this was before gps was invented but Texas is frigging huge!
More dually Crew Cab Trucks are sold there than anywhere else because of need to have plenty of room to put all the groceries and other needs when they go to town!
They will need longer range batteries and bigger motors to haul the whole famdamnly and weeks or months worse of groceries! Which is possible now that battery Tractor Trailers are out!
But for once I am getting excited about electric vehicles! I was always saying that they will never be popular until battery technology got better! That time is coming now! And nobody wants to have to drop 25,000 for new batteries! That is why so many early adopters of battery cars sell them early!
