li-ion cells have an organic solvent based electrolyte.
An additional problem is that the electrolyte is mostly held in the
separators between the plates. Depending on the specific type of

Chevy actually offers a Class 1 hitch for the bolt, however it states that it's
not for towing but rather for using with a hitch mounted Bicycle carrier, etc.

Actually, from what I've read, the main limitation of towing has mainly to do
with how safe the combination is at highway speeds. Most states do not limit
speed when towing so in order to be rated to tow a trailer, a vehicle HAS to be
able to do it safely at the highest speed allowed, which in
Toyota has stated that they don't intend to make electric cars anytime in the
near future. They claim that hybrids are a better use of battery technology.
GM on the other hand has stated that they intend to stop making gas powered
cars, suvs and light trucks in the near future (no specific date
Maybe eventually but I think it just burns up all the fuel. It was over 30
minutes ten the the first time and twenty the second time and the fire still
wasn’t out. They never actually show the fire out on that Leaf

Is that Toyota *America*, or the head office in Japan? I can see the
American division saying they won't bu
There is very little electrolyte in a Lithium Ion battery. If you open one up
it doesn’t pour out. It is mostly on the pos and neg terminals based on charge
state. You might get a few teaspoons. The idea is to only have as much as
needed to increase the energy density. More electrolyte increases

China is pushing EVs hard. France and the UK plan to do away with ICEV
sales by 2040, and in fact France wants Paris 100% EV by
The towing restrictions are for the most stupid idiots among us that would
try to tow Large things at 85 MPH and then blame everyone else for their
problems. I tow my boat, COM trailer, and utility trailers behind my
prius locally.
I'd be a fool to try to tow an RV trailer across country though.
Yeah, I imagine it’s easier to say no towing than specify how much weight,
aerodynamics, etc. I used to have a Saab 900 Turbo and I was towing a trailer
full of tall furniture at 55 and after a while realized I was in continuously
in turbo. I bet it was the bad aerodynamics. Probably be fine hau

Talking about aerodynamics.
I severely modified my Chevy Volt to add 250W of solar panels, but I'm
still
That’s good . I got 38 MPG going down 81 last week (70 MPH speed limit) in my
Volt. So you are doing well!

FWIW the 2nd Gen Volts(2016 and later) get better MPG than 1st gen; 42 mpg in
charge sustaining mode vs 37 and they do it using regular gas instead of
premium. That plus almost 50% more range in EV mode.
Significantly different engine, different transmission and different E-motors.

In what state would that be the case?

Bill Dube -> Do you mean the solvent is flammable? UggThat could be a big
problem. Do you know what is used?
Lee Hart -> I'm sure that would add to the difficulty, but still I would
think anything that makes the battery "less" of a batteryand more of a chunk of
plastic and foil
All of them, it's a federal law. Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.
"The dealer/vehicle manufacturer has the right to deny a warranty repair but
they must demonstrate that the aftermarket part caused the problem. The
warranty remains in effect for all other covered parts."

Hi All,
I have a conversion that used to run a 144v battery (45 x TS 160AH cells).
I have replaced the battery with a 96v nominal battery (32 x CALB CA 130Ah
cells) and the DC-DC (IOTA DLS-55) seems to be low on output voltage, due to
the input voltage being below 130vdc.
I can boost the outpu
