Do you get it when driving?

Hi Gerald,
The AC75 without a transmission will be very slow, and have a limited RPM range
(i.e.: max speed is limited, or it is geared way too low for slow speeds).
Home made hybrids are really way too difficult.
If you don’t remove the engine you won’t have any space for batteries.
My recomme
Lithium cells (of all chemistries) seem to have the fastest degradation when
they are charged to 100% on a regular basis. The general consensus is to keep
it in the 20-90% range. This is also what Tesla recommends for the Model S / X.
I’ve also been charging my LiFEPo4 cells in my VW bug to 100
Yeah, I don’t know why they would change their recommendation; people might
have been complaining about the limited range when only charging to 80-90%.

Yes, it does a power cycle test on plugin. That’s normal, and you can see it in
their open source arduino code.

Hi Paul,
I have a Juice box and a PFC30; it can’t do 30 amps for a long time, and starts
to overheat. Eventually it fails if I charge at more than 20 amps (I’ve
returned it two or three times for repair).

A wheel speed sensor? You found a car without a speedometer? I mean, it is
proportional. I removed my tach gauge once I knew what speed produced what RPM.

For some reason, this doesn't make sense to me. You are saying that you
need a speed sensor on each wheel, or else regen would create instability.
You could say the same thing for forward power applied by the motor. I
think this would only matter if you had a controller on each wheel --

Hey Roland,
That is interesting! Did it take wheel speed information from individual
wheels? I think that is what Robert is trying to achieve. Even so…you’d have to
somehow convert that sensor information into input into a controller. I don’t
think anyone has done that

Awesome job, Seth! This is the way to do it. All too often I see people yelling

Hi EVDL,
My friend came up with the latest cool EV: an electric mini boat! He designed
this 6’ length boat that can hold a full sized person. I cruised around in it a
bit, and it was pretty fun. Check out pictures and some video links on his
site: http://rapidwhale.com/mini-boat.php— he is
