There is a book called electricity for fuel that sells for like $70 bucks online and they claim that it will show you an easy way to convert any car to electric on a $600 budget. Sounds like BS to me. Anybody know anything about this?


Answer
Sure but not for 600. Batteries are not that bad if you import like I did. 20 sets of li-ions with shipping from china for 7000 that's 350 a set. so far I built 2 getting ready to built 2 more for the kids as soon as they realize you can't convert a hummer 2, weight is an issue with EV's.
try here the have everything you need plus books and video's for a reasonable price.

I have 2 I built myself, 1 is an 87 Omni the wife's grocery getter, It's a single speed with a top end about 70mph but most efficient at 35. Mine is an 86 Fiero, I built it as a performance car, it has twin Solectra AC55 motors and controllers each run through 5 speed Getrag transaxils. The rear is the Fiero's the front however came from a Cavalier RS. The Fiero does the 1/4 mile in 9.9 seconds about 6 times on a full charge. And I could probably get that down to low 9's or even upper 8's when I change the training gears and adjust ratio's.

both of these cars are good weather only, spring summer and fall. there is no longer a heater or ac. still has wipers for rain but that's all. Rack and pinion - power stearing was stripped down and rebuilt to manual now. no power anything. they both where around 2600# when I started and after stripping them down, some welding for battery cradles and building back up as an EV there now around 2100# which is still a little heavy for an EV to have good range. I know for a fact the omni can go 103 miles on a charge and still had some left over.

What Christmas gift can I give to my little niece?

My little cute niece is three years old and she is really a little adventurer. She is interested in almost everything. I want to give her a special gift which can help her to explore her little world (in the yard) but it must be safe enough. Do you have any suggestions?
Many thanks!



Answer
You can give him an electric kids car as a Christmas gift. Then he can enjoy the driving fun. He can also start his adventure by driving around. Isn't this sounds terrific?
Lavadeals.co.uk has many kids ride-ons, you can have a look.
