My EV project is about 3 months into the design stage. I am looking into small computers to use to charge batteries from the power line. I realize that for my EV to have any positive value it must look good and be interesting to others in addition to my primary goal of getting me to work with less world impact. I had been hoping to discuss the possible donor vehicles and some of the first real steps involved in a conversion at the meeting this morning. I am leaning to a new VW bug. I am looking at a 40 HP water cooled AC motor operating on 330V battery pack of PbA batteries. I am sure there are things I have not even thought of that are critical for a conversion. This mailing list seems environmental and political rather than technical. I find some things interesting but I am looking for a more technical discussion. Is there one. David Kerzel Pompano Beach
