Everyone,
One of our Rav4EV News Group guys converted his Rav4 to Lithium for ~$7.5
total. $5k for
95 batteries and $2.5k for the BMS. His conversion adds j1772 charging
capability as well. He
gets a 90 mile range and has sporty acceleration. I don't know how long his
CALB 40AH
LiFEPO4 prismatic Batteries (CA40FI) will last.
I doubt he gets a 90 mile range.
12KWh/90 miles == 133Wh/mile.
In a Rav4? Highly unlikely.
Yes and looking at it another way: the 90 mile range would indicate an
average discharge rate of about .5C. A low demand on the cells. I would
guess the range is no more than 50 miles. Probably less.
