The big 'if' is that if this design was dropped off in a place where it would go right back into use, it would not need to be charged until it was parked for more than an hour or two.
It does not use regenerative braking or motor reversal to charge although those two technologies could be big players if a bright mind would pick up the ball and run with them. There is a lot there to work with if you toss out the baby and the bathwater and start fresh.

If you wanna actually help. do it. I do not give a crap about your story; if it has no meat. posers # off and die!

So it sounds like you are saying the car needs an "initial charge" to start moving, and as long as it keeps moving it can continue until it is stopped and after a couple of hours it looses it's charge and would need recharged in order to drive the car again. Is this correct?

How do you know this works? Did you build a prototype or a working model?

My stuff will be sent to ATS Premium for the 75 bucks. If used that will be about 2 dollars an hour for my time. Isn't inventing fun? Otherwise it will be presented in full on the main site for free. That's 0 cents an hour for my time. -------------PC

Yes. The car must be fully charged at the start. All safeguards against battery deterioration should be followed.

An early S-10 electric conversion was borrowed and the system installed. It was reverted and returned to the owner. Like I mentioned before, any production vehicle must be approved before its allowed on the road. Some cities have approved smaller golf cart type electrics already.

Looking forward to seeing your designs. Let us know here when they are available.

I used lead acid because they were cheap and I didn't want to damage the original set. The new coil gel cells are what should be used.

So why even put this system in a car? Why not run it continuous with a generator and have unlimited electric energy?

I commend you for seeing what was always in plain sight when none of the others could.

BTW starting the first day of the post, this machine was hit numerous times. I am bouncing from here people. Its not my machine and there is nothing on it or the network it rides on thats worth anything. Never will be.

Don't bail!!!! The fun is just starting. You can't "get over" until someone takes a shot at you and misses. Has your phone been monitered, first by the cheap guys and then by the really good guys? Does Noory (c2c) know who you are? Have a little faith. Take care -----------PC

If you are using a regular battery, why would it loose it's power after a few hours? How could it be fine one minute and 2 hours later need recharged? When a good battery has been drained and then not used, if anything it recovers. It doesn't drain by not being used. What you describe sounds more like a capacitor, not a battery.
I suppose you could leave it as long as you wanted. I always but batteries back on the charger when i'm done with them. They just seem to stay fresh and fully charge each time. Every other electric car requires this, so its a non issue.

I have no doubt of your skepticism. But here is a thought. Where should we put this ocean of batteries and parts? The public whines and cries about a few lousy windmills. Where should we store this giant footprint? What is the output production vs footprint size? Then we have the upfront cost of each unit. its repair and replacement of cells, and parts on a 4-6 year cycle, or 15yrs with a high upfront on quality cells. Who in their right mind would buy in when the cost of solar is dropping by half in the near future? You are aware that silicon solar is dropping in price like a rock, and thin film is going to a wired window film?

You have yet to show any evidence of either of these, and around here we call that a HOAX.
