I also agree with you: power efficiency is rad.
Realistically, on an ICE vehicle, the power efficiency gain from halogen to LED is negligible, but still. Electric vehicles, that difference becomes important.
Very true! Thought I had no idea how ridiculous the battery capacity was on some electric cars was until Technology Connections ran vehicle-to-load to his kitchen and powered his phone, laptop, and all his cooking stuff for 24 hours straight, simulating a power outage. I think it drained like 17%.
Still, when driving, every bit of efficiency helps!
Some of the really inefficient EV trucks are shipping with 200 kw batteries.
