Cool.  I had a chance to drive Jay Donnaway's a couple of years ago and really 
enjoyed it.  It is everything I would want in an EV, but a little to unusual 
looking for the wife to ever allow :)  Plus, I already have two DIY Evs, my 
1974 Suzuki GT250 and my 1970 Datsun Truck.  I don't know that I will ever be 
able to buy an OEM EV as long as I have those, and I'm not ready to part with 
either just yet.

It is just phenomenal. Basically the guy takes 2 mowers, elec and gas, measures
the equivalent kw of energy of the battery pack and puts it into the gas mower

Damon,

Why don't you do a little experiment - get a friend/somebody who has the 'same'
motorcycle as yours, fill his tank with the equivalent amount of kw as your
battery pack (don't for get to run his tank/carburetor dry to equalize the total
amount of energy), and see who runs the longest, then the farthest, up a hill
the quickest etc.

It would really be interesting to see the results.

Bill Dube - what is the equivalent amount of gas that your competition runs for
the track compared to the kw that the KillaCycle uses for a run?

Re: [EVDL] Gas vs Electric Lawn Mower - Elec wins

2015-10-12 Thread Bill Dube via EV
The KillaCycle uses about 0.6 kWhr for each run down the track. (That 
includes the burnout, by the way, plus the trip back to the pits, which 
the ICE drag bike doesn't run, but is towed.) About 7 cents worth of 
electricity at local residential rates.
An equivalent drag bike uses about $3.77 worth of racing gasoline. About 
a 1/5th of a gallon.


We actually documented this exact test on TV. This comparison starts at 
about the one minute mark in this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWM1xeWusi8

We truly enjoyed meeting Connie Cohen, the owner/rider of the ICE drag 
bike we were matched up against for this episode of "Mean Green 
Machines." She is a wonderful person and a lot of fun. The whole event 
was a real treat for the entire KillaCycle team.

Good point :)  What are you driving to work? I put over 1000 miles on my 
motorcycle this summer at a penny a mile.  That is much more cost effective 
than the ICE SUV I drove in today.

No, they don't care about that either since it cost me 40 cents a day to go to 
work and it costs my wife 5 or 6 bucks depending on the price of gas. 

It's just new technology and most people are afraid of change. However, it will 
eventually be realized by all.

Yes, but no one cares about kw of energy in gasoline.  They care about how many 
gallons or liters they need and how much it costs.  This is like saying that 
the gasoline weighs more than  electricity.  Most people see it as totally 
irrelevant. damonTo: e...@lists.evdl.orgDate: Mon, 12 Oct 2015 10:19:17

Re: [EVDL] Gas vs Electric Lawn Mower - Elec wins

2015-10-12 Thread damon henry via EV
Cool.  I had a chance to drive Jay Donnaway's a couple of years ago and really 
enjoyed it.  It is everything I would want in an EV, but a little to unusual 
looking for the wife to ever allow :)  Plus, I already have two DIY Evs, my 
1974 Suzuki GT250 and my 1970 Datsun Truck.  I don't know that I will ever be 
able to buy an OEM EV as long as I have those, and I'm not ready to part with 
either just yet.
