Even the smaller 4kW PIS system might get you where you want to be, without costing too much more than the Enginer. You could likely get all the...
Just a few quick thoughts. IMHO most people think about plugins completely backwards. They desire an all electric range that exceeds their...
FWIW I appreciate what Enginer is trying to do. They came up with a pretty innovative approach to radically lower PHEV costs. At the time they...
Robb's PIS system looks quite impressive. Anyone know what they are asking for the DIY 4kW system?
Thanks big, nice to see some old familiar faces around along with lots of new ones :)
Hi all, been out of the loop for a while but might be finally getting closer to my PHEV conversion. Doing our home solar now, and when the...
When using lead acid you also have to remember the batteries effectively have less capacity the faster you discharge them due to a non-linear...
I'll add my voice to those recommending against lead acid. A lot of work was done 5-7 years ago on prototyping Plugin conversion strategies with...
Agreed, its clearly cycles not hours. I was not necessarily trying to defend the Optima as the best choice, just stating that IMHO its the deep...

I think you're barking up the wrong tree here. The difference in Ah is pretty irrelevant compared to cycle life. Any battery that will fit in...
Hi all, I could use some help debugging my wife's HIDs on her '08. Got pulled over last week for a drivers headlight out. Assumed a bad bulb as...
FWIW I would not consider a Volt if your typical commute is so short. As long as the batteries remain a dominant cost in PHEVs, you want to buy...
Tow truck driver found two pieces of some sort of greasy metal ring on the ground, said they looked like part of the axle halfshaft. After that I...
Seems to grind as long as engine is running. Won't go to park from neutral directly, have go to drive then park.
I'm not sure what the noise is, but it sounds expensive :( Backed out of parking spot, started making an awful clunky grindy noise. Put in...
Just remember that quoted consumption data is often based on the DC Power stored in the battery and transfered to the motor. It usually does not...
Hey folks, Looks like my AC condenser on the 2005 has been taken out by a rock. Guess thats not too uncommon from what I gather. AC got...
Just out of curiosity, I wonder what happens if you do the TPMS re-calibrate with all four sensors missing? I assume it still leaves the light...
Thanks tandy, I figured that was the case but wanted to check.
