    There is no mention of power used in the article. The power output was 1 mW, but that’s motor output power, not energy used. $5 is 30kW. 30 minutes of 1kW/min., no way, that’s a toaster.

    The max range on electric is 125 miles. Why bother to take a plane when you can drive an EV there in 2 hrs.

      Maybe they charged it for free on some friends solar panels and the 5USD were for the necessary morning coffee?
