Johny, Hope you find what suits your needs. Adverse, sorry, didn't read your post otherwise I wouldn't have posted. Primarily I responded to to an email notification of AEVA posting that I subscribe to. Albeit after a stuttering start, I eventually got to the point that I have used the tape (first h...

8,000v per layer, 260c, 950psi tensile strength and is water tight. It has no sticky glue but welds to itself in a second or two and gets stronger. Once welded to itself it becomes one piece no going back once stuck together. Being silicone it can easily be cut with a sharp blade if required. I've u...

Oops, This is the stuff for you.

Hey Johny, this is the for you.

A friend of mine picked up a reasonably priced electric pump only to find out it required CAN bus input to work. He waisted hours trying to get it working, eventually going and buying another that was less complex.

Just a word of warning to do some homework.

Maybe when you come to the AEVA AGM & the Canberra International EV Festival in October we can catch up then http://forums.aeva.asn.au/smileys/smiley1.gif It would be good to get AEVA members from around Australia to visit or better still bring their EVs with them. This years is the Canberra Centena...

Bryce, I'm interested in 4 stickers (2 cars). If available, how do I order/pay for them.

Happy to do EFT, Paypal or Credit Card, whatever is easiest.

Oops, sorry, Here is the Youtube clip:

The graph posted above indicates the differing speed of the output shaft given a constant speed of the input shaft. But why? Here is my crude way of explaining it AND why the faces of the universal joints MUST be parallel. As we know, time x distance = speed. and because we can't change time, and th...

Have you seen this Australian designed "Thompson Couplings"? http://www.thompsoncouplings.com/site/pages/product_videos.php The alignment eliminator is supposed to accommodate up to 3 deg of mis allignment and I'm sure you guys are more accurate than that. Alternatively you could use the Constant ve...

Correction/Clarification needed about my previous post: A friend of mine who has spent the last few decades in the motor racing scene (last one in Karting) passed on some comments in relation to my post. "...Accessible, cost effective for new entrants (<10k for the whole set-up)..." He agreed with ...

If it's grass root racing we're after then I think we have to chase the needs of the masses to entice them into the thrill of the technology, cause racing in an event with a single EV wouldn't be much fun, basically this means: as main stream, accessible and affordable as possible. This thread seem ...

Hi all, After some research into Karting and how we can introduce electric karts I found that all roads lead to the FAI. All of the local and national karting clubs and associations comply to the international standards. A couple of things to remember is that karting folk dedicate their time, money ...

Andrew,

Post look to be coming in thick and fast, Thanks.

Andrew,
Applied the "delete cookies set by the forum" a couple of days ago, but no change, so I've un-subscribes and re-subscribed this evening, see what happens.

Confirmed experimental.... $220k AUD is bit beyond me at this stage. Reply received 7-Feb-12 Brad, Sorry for the long delay in getting back to you. The MAHLE range extender has been sized for a mid-sized passenger car, to give continuous cruising capability of 120 km/h. The maximum power output (eng...

Request for more info sent 12-Jan-12 Daren, Thanks for the quick reply, sorry for my delayed response, I've been interstate for a few days. I'm looking at EV conversions on two fronts. The first is general type passenger vehicles with a suitable range extender to relieve range stress and the other i...

Hi Andrew, Sorry for the delay, but I've been travelling a bit of late. Up until the 16-Jan I was getting multiple email notifications of postings to various AEVA forums with sender: "The Australian Electric Vehicle Asn". Since then, I'm lucky if I get 1 per day (in total) and the sender is "AEVA". ...

You hit the nail on the head Coulomb,

Off their web site: " Packs are not available for consumer use or aftermarket conversion kits"

Looks like we'll have to wait years to get our hands on second hand versions of these

Hi all, Just got back from a few days holidays and had an email from Mahle: <quote> Brad, The range extender is currently in development and being installed in a demo vehicle. Prototype engines (including generator and inverter) can be supplied to interested parties - although they are quite expensi...

I see what you say Woody, but digging around the web site, it implies that this engine has gone through an evolution or two, though I admit this might be just propaganda. The glimmer of hope is the last few sentences in the : A detailed design study led to... The resulting design incorporates....lea...

Hey all, I've found this range extender that look compact and attractive for some situations: http://www.mahle-powertrain.com/C1257126002DFC22/vwContentByUNID/C807923162DF211EC12578CD00529814/$FILE/04-2011%20Compact_Range_Extender_Engine_EN.pdf Does anyone know if this range extender is available in...
