This is very surprising. You started with a 264V pack, right? So, adding one additional 12V module only increases your pack voltage by 4.5% and only decreases your current draw by a similar amount. Clearly, this could not explain a 25% increase in range before the performance starts to droop. > as did other modifications made to the car Wierder still, considering that your other mods include alignment changes that increased your Wh/mi consumption from 160-200Wh/mi to 200-230Wh/mi... despite the slight increase in pack voltage. > - currently the car will do 100 > miles before the performance starts to sag, however by 110 > has trouble holding freeway speed up hills. So, the car now uses 15-25% more Wh/mi than its original lower voltage configuration, but goes 25% further before the performance starts to sag? How is this possible? Some of your other mods must be pretty fancy <GRIN>. Cheers, Roger.
