Lmao. So true.Physics. You can't do it. The energy isn't there, even if you could convert it all, instead of just the 19% that current solar cells can convert.
I had a friend tell me his regenerative braking added power to his batteries. I had to explain how most of that is still converted to heat because a battery can only absorb so much charge at one time. And he was saying, no, it was free energy. I said, if that were the case, drive with your foot on the brake all the time and you'll always be charging the battery! You'll never have to stop, never have to recharge!
