Actually, the EPA only tests a fraction of cars each year - 10-15% - they rely on the manufacturers to do their own testing. How Vehicles Are...
Size of the battery doesn't have anything to do with how safe they are should something go wrong. Additionally, there's dozens of "lithium"...
Whoops, thanks. Got them mixed up. All I was saying was that you can get Lithium cells that are a LOT larger than the puny cells/modules used...
As long as you need 2+ cells, balancing the cells will be an issue. I think the balancing issues that people are seeing has more to do with the...
Well, the thing is is that it probably will be able to direct electricity directly from the generator to the drive motor in order to bypass...
No. The battery will act as a buffer. Most likely. No. The battery will act as a buffer. That's essentially what happens once you go into...
By "turn" you mean spin, right? Anyway, I think you're saying the same thing that I meant, anyway, the vehicle's center of gravity will follow a...
Typically, you'll see the oil thin out a bit as the viscosity index agents shear down. This is usually most noticeable between 2500-3500 miles...
Depends on the chemistry of the battery, but in general - yes.
OK, not going to beat the dead horse about ABS functionality as qbee42, Tideland and jayman got my back, there. :) Just another suggestion that...
I agree with Blackstone on the insolubles, but they do look very good for 25k miles. Did you run the whole OCI on one filter? To me, it looks...
Just FYI for those reading this thread: Often, a common side effect of ABS is actually longer stopping distances. The #1 goal of ABS is to keep...
Do you have up-to-date NiMH charging efficiency data?
LOL! That's something I forgot was in the works. Will be interesting to see if the Japanese government will allow this to go through. Will...
It's also good that Toyota is looking to Sanyo for additional batteries since Panasonic doesn't appear to be able to keep up. But what that will...
It's about time. Now if only they'd figure out how to manufacture more hybrids, it seems like they've been production limited in sales for some...
Yeah, fairly typical especially if you take corners aggressively. Check your tire pressures and inflate them more, it will keep the tires from...
Usually around 41/39. And the edges still wear a bit quicker than the middle, but overall it's pretty good as long as I rotate them by 10k miles....
FWIW, I had a long post which made a few assumptions where I calculated how much fuel warmup burns in a theoretical situation (but didn't post it)...
