Hi John and All, If one puts solar DC to the dc plug and the signal to turn on, will it while moving, charge? Why I ask is about putting solar on a trailer, extra battery packs or clean fueled range extenders to give EVs long range. I have a good source for pv panels very cheap at times, sunelec, that solar carports, an interesting old name now with a new meaning, for EV charging at work, etc. If the getting the charge into the pack can be solved cheaply by going dc to dc. Won't the solar, wind, etc ec voltqge have to be somewhat higher than the pack top voltage other than at the very end? What are the actual pack top voltage, 95% charged of various EVs if anyone knows. 1 kw gives about 20 miles/day average US is only 4 panels and could be carried even on a trailer hitch mount folded up or lightweight aero trailer with much more. Thanks in advance, Jerry Dycus
Sunelec and join John's blog for best deals that come and go. There are some for $.28/wt last time I check. They are lams, laminations which are panels without frames and connection boxes which for me building my own frames is great, lighter. $280/KW is hard to pass up for a couple hrs of work. -------------------------------------------- On Sun, 7/17/16, John Lussmyer via EV <ev@lists.evdl.org> wrote: Subject: Re: [EVDL] EV's for Armagedon To: "paul dove" <dov...@bellsouth.net>, "Electric Vehicle Discussion List" <ev@lists.evdl.org> Date: Sunday, July 17, 2016, 2:50 PM On Sun Jul 17 09:58:38 PDT 2016 ev@lists.evdl.org said: >Many vehicles already have HVDC charging capability it's called chademo standard. If you have 330VDC available you just need an interface that complies with chademo. jack Richard of EVTV has developed such a product or rather had the Chinese do it. It connect to HVDC and with chademo to the vehicle. Does that actually exist yet? last time I checked it didn't.
