Weight for it

[OriginalBigAl]

Just picked a couple of sacks of sheep food from the feed mill were they have just installed a weigh bridge with digital readout. Before loading, stopped on said weighbridge and the total came to 1780 kg . Knock off 100 kg of Lancashire beef stock in the drivers seat and around 15 kg of dog paraphernalia and the car is 1665 kg , but missing 2mm of tread on each tyre. Thank you for your attention on this matter.

About 60% , which is a damned good question ? E = MC 2 which means energy should have mass .
Somebody else can work it out exactly, but in everyday use , having a fart and opening the window should in theory make the car lighter than running down the battery. Next time I'll go to the weighbridge I will check it out?

Like banging the stick up the of the racing pigeon truck to get them all flying before you drive over the weighbridge .....

Or, the old Gypsy trick of having a 45 gallon barrel filled with water hidden in your load then when unloading a lorry load of scrap steel at the scrapyard removing the drain plug to accumulate the before and after weighbridge readings.

The mass difference between an uncharged and a charged EV battery is about one microgram per 25kwH of charge. The difference between the charging cable being plugged in or not would be much easier to measure.
