[EVDL] Curtis 1227-2406 controller docs
Hi all, A friend called me today. He's building a personal mobility vehicle, and acquired a Curtis 1227-2406 controller on ebay for it. I can't find any data on this particular model. It appears to be a Curtis 1207B model (24v, 200a, microprocessor programmable). The 1207 has a whole range of options that have to be set with a special programming box (which he doesn't have). Since his application should be pretty light duty for this controller, the hope is that its stock programming might be good enough. But that still leaves open questions like which of half a dozen different throttle assemblies it's programmed to use (potbox, hall effect, wig-wag, etc.) Does anyone have any information on it? -- Obsolete (Ob-so-LETE). Adjective. 1. Something that is simple, reliable, straightforward, readily available, easy to use, and affordable. 2. Not what the salesman wants you to buy. -- Lee Hart, 814 8th Ave N, Sartell MN 56377, www.sunrise-ev.com ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)

[EVDL] EVLN: VW wooing Ford’s pretty sad looking compliance EV lineup
https://www.carscoops.com/2018/10/vw-open-sharing-meb-platform-electric-vehicles-ford/ VW Open To Sharing MEB Platform For Electric Vehicles With Ford October 31, 2018 Michael Gauthier [image https://images.carscoops.com/2018/09/dd872c05-vw-meb-platform-3.jpg vw meb ] Ford’s electric vehicle lineup is looking pretty sad these days as your only choice is to pick up one of the few remaining Focus Electric models that are only available in a handful of states. The model never caught on with consumers and Ford wasn’t even particularly thrilled about it as company’s global director of electrification, Ted Cannis, effectively called it a compliance car that’s “not too exciting.” It’s not hard to understand way the model was such a failure as the 2016 Focus Electric had a range of just 76 miles (122 km). Ford eventually installed a better battery pack, but even that couldn’t make the Focus Electric competitive as the range was just 115 miles (185 km) according to EPA estimates. Ford’s Mustang-inspired electric vehicle promises to fix the Focus’ many shortcomings, but the company hasn’t reveal much about the crossover and it already faced backlash after hinting it could be called the Mach 1. Aside from a few teasers, little is known about the model except that it will be launched in 2020 and have a range of approximately 300 miles (483 km). It’s one of 16 new electric vehicles the company is working on and all of them are slated to arrive by 2022. While Ford is obviously pretty invested in EVs at this point, Volkswagen CFO Frank Witter suggested their partnership talks with Ford could result in the Blue Oval getting access to the company’s MEB platform which has been specifically designed for electric vehicles. As Automotive News reports, Witter said “Whether we might provide access to other brands outside of the VW Group is theoretically possible, but there is no decision.” That leaves the door open for Ford to use the platform, but that’s far from certain at this point. It also remains unclear if Ford would even be interested in using the MEB platform as the company’s own electric vehicle program is pretty advanced at this point. However, access to the platform could provide Ford with a quick and affordable way to bring electric vehicles to market.

[EVDL] EVLN: 2019 Kia e-Niro EV impressions> substantial unavailable push (v)
https://insideevs.com/kia-e-niro-ev-first-impressions-video/ Kia Releases Niro EV First Impressions Video OCT 26 2018 STEVEN LOVEDAY [video https://youtu.be/Wuhx16wMogY First Impression | e-Niro | Kia ] What do folks at the 2018 Paris Motor Show think of the Kia e-Niro [EV]? First impressions of the 2019 Kia e-Niro have been outstanding. Most reviews we’ve read, written, and shared have been packed with a plethora of positive takeaways. Now, Kia’s new all-electric crossover has made its way to the 2018 Paris Motor Show and many people are getting to see it in the flesh for the first time. Of course, they’re unable to test drive the car, but they can see it, size it up, sit inside, and learn all about its specs. Kia’s new video is brief, but it does a nice job of showing off the e-Niro, complete with people’s quotes across the bottom of the screen. Overall, the attendees seem impressed by the crossover’s styling, overall size, interior space, cabin quality, and range. It’s evident that Kia is making great strides with its vehicles in general, and especially exciting that the Korean automaker is making a concerted effort in the electric vehicle space. Unfortunately, these cars won’t be readily available in many areas, at least initially. Kia and Hyundai EV production isn’t intended to be large-scale at first, and on our shores, the vehicles will only be sold in select states. However, this is still the early stages of what could turn out to be a much more substantial push for the EV segment is a whole.
