Well ,, no merit badge for you. You have failed in your rebuttal because of lack of "" common cents""

Look what you said,, recorded for all time....

"""With electric motors, it's easy to do as the current just does it. So there's no cost in having it. But it's trivial. I'm surprised you are one of those people like Eric who think to understand something, you have to do """

Regenerative braking is..... "" easy to do"" "" no cost in having it"" well then ,, most people with ""common cents"" would say if there is no cost and easy to do .. I want it for whatever gain I can get.. 5 percent 10 percent ,, there is gain!! And I want it...and even more so in hilly terrain.

Would you like 5 percent return on your electricity bill,, taxes,, insurance,, cable,, a return of something from the falling ""Q?""
We know the answer don't we? In the case of EV's,, locomotives ,,long term positive returns from regenerative braking are GOOD.
