"Electromagnetic (EM) waves which Tesla declared is a free source of power that is “everywhere present in unlimited quantities”."
"The "energy receiver" (gravitational energy converter) had been built by Tesla himself."

"Tesla would fool with some tuners and tune in the right frequency and got 240 volts delivered through the air"

"Tesla used an antenna (an electrical conductor) and an amplifier to harness and then amplify energy.
An amplifier’s job is to take a weak audio signal and boost it to generate a signal that is powerful enough to drive a speaker, or in the above case, an electric motor."
"So in short – Tesla connected the antenna (an electrical device which converts electric radio waves into current – i.e. an infinitely free power supply) to the center-tap of the ignition coil of the Pierce Arrow. 12 vacuum tubes were then wired (connected) together in parallel and connected to the ignition coil. In this circuit, Tesla amplified the very weak radio wave signal and produced a very high voltage output. Enough to power the 80 HP AC electric motor for a full week, often at speeds of up to 90 mph."
"It is entirely plausible that Tesla made use of the alternator to continually recharge the Pierce Arrow’s single 12 volt automotive battery and help supply sufficient power to the electric motor."

"The alternator charges your battery by creating a voltage that is slightly higher than the voltage in the battery, causing a current to flow into the battery until it reaches the higher voltage."

"Tesla cars run on 300-400 volts, primarily to achieve greater efficiency throughout the whole electric vehicle powertrain. This high level of voltage is perfectly safe though, with all components designed to work well at high voltages."

Tesla Motor the Secret of high Efficiency
"Nikola Tesla invented the induction motor with rotating magnetic field that made unit drives for machines feasible and made AC power transmission an economic necessity."
"Tesla's Electric Motor is one of the ten greatest inventions of all times."

"the vehicle’s drive belt turns the rotor via a pulley on the front of the alternator. As the rotor turns, it causes the stator to create an alternating current. The rectifier bridge converts the alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC) that the car’s electrical system can use."
"The PCM decides how much voltage the charging system needs by looking at data from the body control module (BCM). A data network allows the PCM, BCM, and other modules to communicate with one another. The BCM monitors a battery current sensor, which is located in one of the battery cables, to monitor the current going in and out of the battery."

"a 100A alternator will provide an output of about 1.5kW at 15V, but will dissipate about 750W internally. That's why they have such a big fan on the front of the alternator.
If you then consider the mechanical power required to spin and cool the alternator your overall efficiency drops to about 20-25% including the engine losses.
If you like to deal in HP, then 1.5kW is about 2HP. At an overall efficiency of 20% this means you will need about 10HP from an engine to provide this."
"The amount of power at idle, normal and maximum is alternator dependent. Most alternators need to spin at about 6000 rpm or more to provide maximum output, and in most vehicles you will see max alternator rpm around 8-10000 rpm.
The efficiency (and power output) of an alternator can be improved markedly by moving to synchronous rectification and raising the output voltage using load dump configurations. For example a 48V 100A output may improve to almost 75% or better."

"the average size of an Electric Car Battery ranges from 80 to 100kWh. The Porsche Taycan and the Jaguar I-Pace have the biggest battery packs of 90 kWh. Other EVs with big batteries include the Hyundai Kona and Chevy Bolt, both with 64kWh packs. The average size of an electric car battery continues to increase year after year.
One of the major reasons why electric vehicles are not purchased in large numbers is because they do not have enough driving range. Automakers, such as Tesla are working to produce vehicles with huge battery packs capable of storing as much as 100 kWh. These large battery packs will solve the driving range problem by providing up to 300 miles of driving on just a single charge."
"The capacity of an electric car battery is measured in kilowatt hours (kWh)."

"capacitor banks rated at 5KVA each. Tesla used twelve (12), for a total of 60KVA (KW), while Gray used three (3) for a total of 15KVA.
The key design point for Tesla’s car system was that his power rating of 60KVA equates to 80HP so that all of his design specifications match the full power rating for his car."

"Supercapacitors are a type of energy storage device that is superior to both batteries and regular capacitors. They have a greater capacity for energy storage than traditional capacitors and can deliver it at a higher power output in contrast to batteries. These characteristics, together with their long-term stability and high cyclability, make supercapacitors an excellent energy storage device. These are currently deployed in a variety of applications, either in conjunction with other energy storage devices (mostly batteries) or as self-contained energy sources."

"Supercapacitors or ultracapacitors differ from conventional capacitors due to their fast charge–discharge rates, longer life cycle, high power, and high energy density [33]. There are two types of supercapacitors depending on the charge storage."
https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/chemistry/supercapacitors
“Supercapacitors at the moment are between three and seven watt hours per kilogram; lithium-ion is around about 100. If [the new polymer] translated into a 100-fold improvement in supercapacitor energy density, that would be three to seven times the energy density of a lithium-ion battery,” Heathcote says. “If that were the case, then you would be able to reduce the weight and the amount of materials going in as the storage system for your car by a very large amount.”
