I have an asking price of $19,000 USD, having spent over $27,000 . But we will entertain any reasonable offer. Why are we selling it? Simply put, it does not have enough range for us. My wife travels back and forth from Miami to Key Largo (60+ miles). We are looking for EV solutions that meets our lifestyle.
Here are some links: http://www.austinev.org/evtradinpost/index.php?list=advertisement&method=sho wdetails&rollid=2898 or my site is http://evnewbie.com/ConvertedEV.asp (just click on the pictures to enlarge) Here are the specs: 16 - 6V Deka batteries = 96V Z1K-HV Zilla controller + hairball (liquid cooled) 9" NetGain motor with flywheel 1 - 12V alt battery, with IOTA DC-DC charger New front tires New Convertible Top New Struts, Shocks, and Springs A battery watering system, for the 8 batteries that are under trunk. This makes it easy to keep the water at the right level in the batteries. 2 chargers (one for home, one for traveling). One is 110V/12A = 96VDC charger The other is a 220/30A = 96VDC charger....for fast charging. We get between 30 and 40 miles before need to charge (depending on speed) and it easily goes above 60 mph. I have had it up to 70+ mph with little efforts. I run it daily on the causeway at 50mph to 60 mph. But at those speeds, we only get the 30 mile range. We figured out where to put 4 more batteries (under the back seat), but never got around to the upgrade. Feel free to call me. Allan Miller 786-525-9737 P.S. My wife and I actually negotiate each day on who gets to drive the car. It is that much fun to drive. _______________________________________________ Florida EAA mailing list [email protected] http://www.floridaeaa.org
