Similar to fbook, you have to join nextdoor to view their group.
That hurdle plus that it is likely locally focused to the san 
francisco ca area, deters me from pursuing further.

The whole story is not being told. 12v battery failure? Not enough knowledge of 
door handles and manual locks? Lawrence Rhodes

I?d agree with POTENTIALLY carbon-free.

But almost all hydrogen produced these days comes from natgas, which, despite 
considerable green-washing, is a big emitter of both carbon and methane, if you 
count drilling to combustion.

I know Tesla's have a button that is normally used to open the door, but 
if power is removed you have to use a (different) manual actuator. In 
some of their designs it's not terribly obvious where to pull if the 
button doesn't work, so if somebody skipped that part of the manual they 
can get into trouble...


But that story was terribly lite on details

[EVDL] FrankenVolt coming along...

2020-05-14 Thread Robert Bruninga via EV 
The FrankenVolt is coming along: http://aprs.org/my-EVs.html

The front panel and the added two-panels are finished.  I'm working on the
side curtains now for when the hatch is set level.

Last night, I got the design in place made of cardboard to make the
patterns and see if they would fit.  They do!  Now all I have to do is
sneak in some build-time between honeydoos.

Oh, and I still welcome anyone with info on where I can easily access the
300V battery terminals for charging.

Re: [EVDL] Solectria Force - Lithium Batteries

I've got 48 100ah batteries,  I believe 16 in front, 32 in back.

 Hey folks -

Does anyone drive a 1990's Solectria Force? If so - what is your battery
setup. I'm looking at bringing one back to life - it currently has 49 x
3.2v 40ah LiFePo CALB bad cells. All the batteries fit in the front box.
Hoping to see if anyone else has any existing setups or suggestions.

Best,
Billy
