1. How do these ev calculator sites work, as in what
programs do they use? It's not excel right?
2. If I use an image as the example, is it possible
to attach an image to each set of values that I change
in the calculator? The scenario that I am thinking of
is displaying a bike with the

Thanks, Mike.And
I can pick up the 250 roller real cheap.. That's what got me thinking along
these lines.
Do it. Do it. Do it.
Anyone know of an available Ninja 750 roller?
I would go the EL Chopper route, but I don't know how far I want to get
into frame modification.
Pleaes don't fall into a Ninja only
How is that the battery instrument panel project coming along? Does
anyone know?
There's a couple of projects out there. On the EVTech listserve
they're developing a very nice one for cars though we could scale it
down for bikes. Then there's EM Dash of course but they guy who's

Cedric Lynch who designed the motor on which the Etek is based, is a friend
of mine. He made extensive tests of the etek and knows it's limitations.
If you go much over 300 amps then the efficiency falls off a cliff.
The motor has been 'value engineered' down to a specific cost/performance
Interesting thought started on that one, Mike. I like
that precooler so to speak.
I think Peltier exchangers would help in this
instance, but I would be concerned with the sudden
temp change on the brushes, i.e. cold to hot. Whether

I haven't had an issue with melting Etek solder at momentary
currents up to 800 amps. The key is momentary. If I wanted cooling
though, I think I'd go with spraying CO2 on the motor during the
run. I have had the brushes and comm get warm, but there's enough
cooling between runs to take
Here's a couple of thoughts. First for the drag racer amongst us: What if
you could cool your motors before the race? I mean, like make some copper
coils that can slip over them in the pits that run off to a refrigerant and
get them really, really cold just before the run. Then slide the coils
