Way too many years ago (1990's), I poured money into upgrades for the S-10 Blazer conversion EV I had (see https://brucedp.neocities.org/blazer/ ). The now retired San Mateo converter installed a small simple circuit that helped maintain a constant battery current draw. I was lucky to get one as

It may work fine on almost level ground, but be a real pita to other dr

I sent a query to loctite via their website asking for precut TO-220 / TO-247 Silverstrate pads. But if a paste like material has better conductivity I'll probably just go with that. I wasn't able to find an easy way to order the Silver Ice 710 online, I may have to just call the manufacture
