Use a plastic one for residential sprinklers then. $15. Just spit balling ideas.

I’m not familiar with this kind of thing, but would you use a Christy box for the clean out?
The other comment about a sump pump makes sense but there’s not a lot of flat floor left after the box and the sump get dug.

I agree with most comments when applied to Temporarily Embarrassed Millionaires.
I think the ruling class (aka the rock that does not need this cope) needs the threat of homelessness (aka the hard place) to squeeze the proletariat against.

No, less than 2000 cars is not mass market.

Sounds very limited market.Those are golf cart and scooter motors, not suitable for highways
BMW currently uses brushed motors in their EVs so I’m not looking to them for any advice. Maybe BMW wants their traditional central layout CM450 tech. But! DeepDrive is the first hub motor I’ve seen that did not need gearing, so that is actually cool. I think they’ll be relegated to rear wheels due to scrub radius limitations but that could be ok.
- Comment on 28-pound electric motor delivers 1000 horsepower 1 week ago:
I’m looking for benefits over current EV drivetrains. So far, there aren’t any.
- Comment on 28-pound electric motor delivers 1000 horsepower 1 week ago:
They DO require transmissions! A single speed planetary gear set is still required, same as current EV drives.
Find me a hub motor datasheet with quoted power and torque below 1000 rpms. The YASA datasheets are all out to 8000 rpms. Useless at wheel speed.
They’re quoting 30 second power numbers and dry weight without a gearbox. They’re fishing for dumb money.

I agree, they are good for minimally suspended low speed personal transport.

Not even the concept had hub motors.

If you have different information about a production car, please share it. The theoretical concept ID.2 R may use hub motors but that is vaporware at this point.
- Comment on 28-pound electric motor delivers 1000 horsepower 1 week ago:
They make sense for scooters, bikes, and other low speed or two wheel personal transport. For anything with an actual suspension (designed for a highway) there is just too much competition for space with brakes and suspension linkage. The unsprung weight, exposed high voltage cabling subject to road debris and accidents are problems too. And what to do hub motors really gain you?
- Comment on 28-pound electric motor delivers 1000 horsepower 1 week ago:
Hub motors are a party trick. They will never reach mass market.

- Comment on How often do you update software on your servers? 2 weeks ago:
Probably every 2 months. When I have a day off work with nothing to do. I have a few VMs that are more fragile than I want to admit and if something breaks I want to have time to tinker instead of just restoring a backup.

- Comment on Insuranace is a joke 4 weeks ago:
Your example assumes zero down payment, so yes.
But if your down payment had been 4k, gap would not have paid out. It’s only what you owe, not what you paid. - Comment on Insuranace is a joke 4 weeks ago:
Gap insurance is just you gambling on a tiny down payment. The house always wins.
- Comment on Insuranace is a joke 4 weeks ago:
That’s true, but that depreciation is often recoverable. That deducted amount is paid out when you repair or replace the damage.
Cars don’t work like that though, OP should fight the valuation unless they left out critical information like a $5,000 deductible.
