The vehicle's limitations – a short range, a maximum speed of only 15 miles per hour (24 km/h), a battery that ran down quickly and a lack of weatherproofing – made it impractical for most people's needs. Its sales prospects were blighted by poor reviews and safety concerns expressed by consumer and motoring organisations. On 10 January 1985, the C5 was unveiled at a glitzy launch event, but it received a less than enthusiastic reception from the British media. It was intended to be the first in a series of increasingly ambitious electric vehicles, but the development of the follow-up C10 and C15 models never progressed further than the drawing board. After a change in the law, prompted by lobbying from bicycle manufacturers, Sinclair developed the C5 as an electrically powered tricycle with a polypropylene body and a chassis designed by Lotus Cars. The C5 emerged from an earlier project to produce a small electric car called the C1. He hoped to repeat his success in the electric vehicle market, which he saw as ripe for a new approach. Sinclair had become one of the UK's best-known millionaires, and earned a knighthood, on the back of the highly successful Sinclair Research range of home computers in the early 1980s. Although widely described as an "electric car", Sinclair characterised it as a "vehicle, not a car". It was the culmination of Sir Clive Sinclair's long-running interest in electric vehicles. The Sinclair C5 is a small one-person battery electric recumbent tricycle, technically an "electrically assisted pedal cycle". The Microverse Battery is a craftable item in the game Pocket Mortys.30 kg (66 lb) without battery, approx. The Television broadcast in the Microverse world suggests that he is extracting about two thirds of the energy generated. Zeep Xanflorp states that 80% of the energy made by the inhabitants of his Miniverse is extracted for his use, while Rick does not state precisely how much of the Microverse's energy is extracted saying only that 'some of it' powers his ship. The speed of time is at least slow enough for President Chris to have previously met Rick personally. The temporal fields of the Miniverse and Teenyverse are known to speed up time inside the universes relative to the outside, but this is unclear in the case of the Microverse hours pass for Summer in the car while Rick and Morty are inside the battery, but enough time apparently passes immediately after their escape for the Microverse to go back to goobleboxes. Rick describes creating a "spatially tessellated void inside a modified temporal field", while Zeep Xanflorp describes his Miniverse as an "unbounded vacuum inside a temporal field". Teenyverse - made by Kyle planned energy extraction via bloobleyank. Miniverse - made by Zeep Xanflorp energy extraction via flooblecrank.Microverse - made by Rick energy extraction via goobleboxes.Trouble occurs when a scientist in this miniature world, Zeep Xanflorp, invents his own Microverse Battery (which he calls a 'Miniverse') to provide his people with energy, thus making the kinetic devices Rick installed obsolete. The people of this world, including their president, Chris, consider Rick to be a benevolent alien, when in fact, he is using them as slaves. Under the guise of "waste power", a majority of the energy produced is extracted by Rick to power his ship. These lifeforms use kinetic devices, which were given to them by Rick, to produce electricity. The Microverse Battery contains a miniature universe with a planet inhabited by intelligent life.
