@cant7think7what batteries did you use and what is the Ah ?
-
bedini motors do not generate power, just convert it
-
Do you power the vacuum pump off the auxilliary battery or the main batteries?
-
Nope. Most electric motors have a small impeller on the shaft to pull air through the motor keeping it cool... well, coolish. External cooling is always handy, but not always required.
-
do u not need a cooling fan for the engine bay for the motor??:D
-
Round bastard file. Ha!
-
really recommend you look into the bedini motor, i'm wondering if that could TOTALLY REPLACE many of those batteries
--of course it's an entire new thing to understand :l
but i think it could
-
Nice man. 5 stars. I'm gonna start on my car soon. Little nissan micra four door ev!! Hope it turns out half as good as yours!
-
I'm Thinking you could use some plastic marine battery boxes.
-
whats the website u bought everything from?

You guys didn't just guess all this. Where did you find the instructions especially for the electrical side of it?

There's a circuit diagram that EV America send with the motor/controller. Without it I'd be stumped.

Love your conversion! I am eager to see your sollution with the battery chargers, if it is as simple as I think after reading on your site it would solve a great big problem for me. :D
And btw, isn't the motor supposet to be a little more protected against water/dirt/etc from under the car? (I live in sweden = dirt and rain all the time, poor cars.)

You're right, it's in the rulebook for the motor to be protected from dirt etc here too. I'll build a simple splash guard soon.
Once the batteries are in, I'll build the charging system too. Full steam ahead a the moment. :)

Gav - love the recharging light on the dashboard. Nice touch.

Hehehe, I like it too. Makes use of the old Low Fuel light.
