Interesting point from T1 terry about the auxiliary FLA only being charged to 13.2v causing sulphation.Surely a small inverter could remove this issue? Ah, but then the point was raised about 12v failure requiring a regular service visit. Onselling at it's best. " DO YA WANT FRIES(12v battery) WITH ...

In my Suzuki carry I fitted a button siren tone for use in carparks. It annoyed the heck out of me but I saw pedestrians look at the van and still continue on their way. As drivers, we still have a duty of care, even to those belonging to the Order of the Perpetually Mesmerised by Technology. As pre...

Hi; A valid question and it is covered in NCOP14 guidelines. "2.12 Power Supply Priority... If safety equipment such as lights, brakes and windscreen wipers use the same power source as the traction motor, these services must be supplied in preference to the traction circuit. The design of any ancil...

My question is : Do I qualify to post such an ad? I am not a financial member but I would think I have the thirty posts. Just a short yea or nay will suffice before I fill out the ad format for my Carry.

Hi, after a lot of detective work in the settings I discovered one that requires IP verification for each logon. The box was ticked so I unticked and hey presto! problem solved. I am not smart enough to have set that in the first place so go figure?

Hi; With regard to the DIY EV debacle, I notice that several contributors to this forum have posted, all with negative comments. Some ten days ago I posted giving support, moral and financial to starting another independent forum to distance ourselves from the VB raiders. In the past I have had issu...

Hi goin bush. How has the chinese DC..DCperformed? I saw the same one on alibaba but 72v. At present I am using two 12v in parrallel and have not flattened them yet ( my pack is only 6.72 kwh). The electrician and engineer both passed this arrangement, the only test was operating emergency flashers ...

Not wanting to divert this thread, but I have a battery related query. On DIY EV Kiwi Duncan said that he was able to import Volt batteries from USA . As I am moving into the 21st century and soon re-cycling my Pb, I would appreciate any experiences, good or bad, with suppliers and any recommendatio...

And the 3 adults are still forward of the rear axle ( unless you are sneaking them into an old style drive- in movie lot and they are shoehorned into the boot)

Hi again; Still banging on about weight distribution:3.2 Brakes and Steering Version 2.0 - 1 January 2011 Page 20/29 / "Because mass distribution is an important factor in maintaining good handling and braking characteristics of a vehicle, it must be considered carefully in the design of a conversio...

NCOP LAN 2011 Version2.0-1 "Mass distribution should be as low and CENTRALLY located as possible in the vehicle to assist with vehicle stability". In the Govspeak dialect MAY= we don't really care; SHOULD=we would like you to do this but it's up to you; MUST=MUST. :D Check for later versions of NCOP.

Hi, just a thought that one of the regulations is that as little weight as possible be placed behind the rear axle line to avoid spinout . With lead that is a lot of leverage in a corner.

Good point. Different user names and passwords, but maybe they are trying to get me to use all my passwords.

An audacious request for assistance to log in to DIYEV. They are requesting that I verify my IP address. According to Whats My IP? it is 110.150.161.135. DIYEV agree and are asking me to verify this by filling out their form providing my user name and password. Having logged in with the same user ID...

Thanks, I will try them. Worthwhile if it cuts down on overseas postage.

Hi, off topic, please move if necessary; My AXE 7245 is showing solid red .According to AXE this means that it is stuck in programming mode; the solution as follows: " Hello. If the controller powers on and the light goes solid red that means that the controller is stuck in programming mode and woul...

Hi Rob, Maybe off topic, but my friend has asked about charging his 2017 PHEV after only a 20k run. Is it critical to re-charge after partial discharge, or can it be left and allow the motor to kick in to re-charge? The vehicle is generally used every second or third day and does not stand partially...

My mate picked up his 2017 on Friday and very generously allowed me to have a 20k drive. Compared to my 2004 Crewman it was exhilarating! So exhilarating that being distracted by coloured lights and other shiny things I ran a red in the main street causing panic braking by others. And that is about ...
