    Should you swap a crappy battery for a new EV?

    One benefit of swapping: Resale value of the used EV won't be impacted by battery age. This is a big deal on a five or ten year old EV. One big problem: what happens when I swap my crappy near end of life battery for a fresh new one. The swap system needs to take that into account.

    Should a battery swapping station use a modular pack?

    It would be neat to see battery swapping stations use a standard modular pack, like say 5 kWh, instead of an entire battery pack. Much like how some people don't fill their entire tank, you would only replace the packs of cells that make sense for your application. Going across town? Maybe just swap out two. Going cross country?

    Why does a battery swapping system always have more than one battery?

    A battery swapping system will always have more than one battery per car because they need to stockpile for peak demand, as limited by charging rates, and to buffer for uneven distribution of customers that changes randomly.
