Candela C-8 ‘powered by Polestar’ shares battery and charging technology with Polestar 2

Description

The new Candela C-8 ‘powered by Polestar’ is the first product from a partnership between Polestar and Candela. The two Swedish premium mobility brands reached an agreement in August 2022 for Polestar to supply batteries and technology to power Candela’s electric hydrofoil boats.The Candela C-8 ‘powered by Polestar’ is intended to use the same 69 kWh battery pack and DC charging technology as the Polestar 2 Standard range Single motor. Candela expects range of up to 57 nautical miles on one charge at a cruising speed of 22 knots, comparing favourably with internal combustion engine powerboats, and with a high-speed range 2-3 times longer than conventional electric speedboats.This high electric performance at sea is possible thanks to a combination of innovative technology from both Candela and Polestar. The Candela C-8 uses an efficient direct drive pod motor – the Candela C-POD – and ‘flies’ on computer-guided hydrofoils that lift the hull above the water at high speeds, reducing energy consumption by up to 80% compared to traditional motorboats.In addition to the 69-kWh battery pack from Polestar 2, Polestar also supplies DC fast charging technology for the Candela C-8, as well as sharing Research and Development capabilities to integrate the technology and software in a marine application to transfer it from land to sea.

Save Your Kindle's Battery With These Simple Steps

E-readers like Kindles only use power when the content of the screen changes. Because of that, Kindles have a long battery life. That means you probably need to charge it every few days or weeks rather than once a day. Still, Business Insider reports there are a number of ways to save the battery life on your Kindle--especially if it's aging and the battery is wearing out. Keep your reading light as low as possible, and put your Kindle to sleep when you're not using it. Next, don't have it connected to the internet when you don't need it. Switch it to airplane mode in the Settings menu. Finally, when downloading books, charge both during the download and a little bit after, while the Kindle updates. That will save lots of juice!

Asus ZenWatch 2 Promises Four Days of Battery Life

Another day, another smartwatch. While all models running Android Wear are starting to blend together, manufacturers are determined to find new ways for them to stand out. The latest effort comes from tech giant Asus with the arrival of its ZenWatch 2, which was announced on Monday at tech conference Computex in Taiwan. Available in two sizes — small and large (the first ZenWatch just had one option — the ZenWatch 2 has 18 different strap materials and casing color options, including silver, gunmetal and rose gold. Although it looks a little like the Apple Watch — especially the rose gold model — the Asus has a lot going for it, including battery life. The company said it can last up to four days on one charge compared to Apple's one-day limitation.
