I'm surprised range is even discussed on this forum, as it's simply a matter
of suitability for an individual's needs. Do the math. Considering that the
average trip distance in the US is under ten miles, 95% of the trips are
under 30 miles, and the daily average is under 40 miles, the i-MiEV's

Joe,
Everything you said is exactly mirrored by my own experience with my i-MiEV
here in the UK. It is a very versatile, comfortable, nippy and wonderfully
smooth to drive car whose external appearance very much belies its interior
roominess - in the front and rear seats.
It is a complete

You can charge more than 16 kWh during a normal workday from a 120V -
20A outlet. At 3.4 mi/kWh that is more than 50 miles.
Thus, Level 1 (120V - 20A) work quite well for most commuters and most EVs.

It sounds to me like an overspeed. One or more of the individual commutator
segments has broken free of the bonding. Although it may be possible to rewind
the motor, a replacement may be the less expensive/most reliable route.
If only the commutator is damaged (one or two bars lifted under the

Last year i made a mistake and over-spun the motor with the clutch
activated. The motor made a big nasty mechanical sound and i thought i
would be walking home from there. But the

I can't help much with the problem, except to suggest that you probably lifted
a commutator bar. I'm not sure what it takes to fix it.
I'm just curious if you know how fast the motor was spinning when the damage
happened. I have the same motor in my conversion and it would be good to
