Dropping you some coin and good wishes that you can add more video!

Great Work! Convenient Response is the best EV video I've seen to date. What a beautiful little car and a lucid explanation of the technology. The recent episode on balancing Li cells should get everyone rethinking the approach. I thought your use of the redwood sticks and the ruler was perfect. You have a gift for making the complex simple and clear.

Very nice replacement episode for Fridays CANCELED show.
Im sure you must have come across Forkensift on youtube but if not; please watch his video #6) Project ForkenSwift electric car: LED battery gauge.
A lot of information about this gauge can be read at EV Weblog.

Wow! Just finished watching the 111309 weekly episode. Thank you. Thank you. The Bells and Whistles started going off 45 minutes into it and haven't stopped. I have been misguided by top balancing and I have also destroyed batteries. Thundersky should start telling the buyers of these batteries to low end balance. Of course, they won't sell as many, but it's right thing to do.

I had thought if you could manage doing a weekly PBS, the numbers you could reach would jump vastly. I didn't mean to insult, as many of the project gearheads I know barely spend any time on the internet. A part order here and there, and rarely ever check e-mail. However these same Guys will sit and watch Goss's Garage, Shade Tree and more.
Any way I admire all the effort put forth, and the great information you are getting out there. I also agree having the shows on line gives a viewer the ability to watch anytime. Maybe someone could invent a fender mount Laptop holder ;-)

Many thanks for the kind words. No, we are not on PBS. But why would you want us to be on a 1/2 hour show once a week on PBS. We post shows of an hour to an hour and a half on our web site at http://evtv.me. And you get to watch them whenever you like.  The Internet offers some great opportunities for video on demand and the resolution and bandwidth are improving. YouTube kind of sucks, but the concept of video on the Internet is very much a commer I think.

Hello from Canada!! I am an EV fan and now 2 in my second year of riding my E-bike ( now fully adopted by Ontario). I first have to say, awesome work you are doing here, great information for others to follow and learn from!
I would also like to know, are you doing this for a local public access TV station?
If you are just doing this for internet only, then it's a darn shame!!! I would really love to see a weekly 1/2 to 1 hour of this on something like PBS ( which reaches into Ontario Canada via OTA TV and Cable on WNED in Buffalo).
In any case many Thanks to you ( and The Brain ), for your hard work and desire to share you knowledge and know how!
 I look forward to seeing more on the Mini Cooper project!

I definately enjoyed the news video. Your coverage of the various components and what has recently come out is quite useful. You get two thumbs up from me... I'm currently scheming a Z3 build and would also enjoy seeing what other innovative EV builders are doing for solutions. Thanks again!

Dear Mr Rickard
My name is Matthew and I live in Canada. I'm been trying to build an electric vehicle since high school but to success. I've design lots of parts and came up with some very interesting ideas but I just can't seem to be able to build one. Watching your videos really do help tremendously and really show me new things that I never had the guts to attack. I hope to be able to see more of the project as it goes on. My real interest in the vehicle is how your going to do the speedo gauge. I want to convert my truck but the speed is sensed from the rear crown gear in the rear end. I don't know how to get pass that. If I could I'd be converting my F-150 (1992). Well hope to hear more soon and Thanks soo much. Matthew
