You don't understand that the Tesla doesn't claim 300 mile/charge?

Tesla claims beyond 300 miles on one charge.

They're also having trouble keeping up with demand.

My last count was in excess of 1500 already sold,

And that is world wide.

So far this year, the worlds car makers have put out roughly 38,000,000 cars.

Tesla has managed to capture .004% of the market.

Oh yeah, the crowds are forming to buy these things.

Let's pretend for a second. I've invented a new HVAC
system for the residental market. It is 2X as efficient
as anything Carrier or anyone else has. But, I've
just started production. You can get one next spring
through you building contractor. It will save people
50% on their heating and cooling. If asked, NO one
says they don't want one.

A big unstated factor is the installed price.

Assuming it is cost competive, then people will fall into groups:

Non-buyers:

People that don't want the big capital outlay as long as the current system
is working, i.e. the majority of people.

Buyers:

People who need the existing system replaced, i.e. some small fraction.

People with "needs" that require the system run 24/7, have huge utility
bills, and have the capital to replace the system, i.e. some small fraction.

Wealth enviro-whinners that will buy and pay for anything with a "green"
lable on it, i.e. some small fraction.

If it is not cost competitive, buyer group 1 gets even smaller and
buy something else while group 2 will do an economic analysis of capital
cost versus saved utilities cost.
