Coming Along..

Things are slowly coming along. I am almost done designing the adapter system and I have built another controller circuit.

Another EV'er wanted in on my controller project so I am building him one and have most of it done. I am however lacking in the proper casings and terminals but he may be able to come up with something. I have also been looking at the battery situation again. I am trying to make sure I get the range I need, so I am now looking at 8 volt batteries because of the higher Ah rating. In order for me to go a safe 35 miles per charge, the batteries should be rated at 164 Ah, and most 8 volt batteries are 170 Ah. I really need to take a trip to the local wholesale stores and see what they have for inventory.
