Well, I guess that's good news. As long as 3rd party testing substantiates EEStor's claim with respect to energy density, power density, and...
Well, I don't read or understand Japanese, so the link doesn't do much for me. However, a seach for JOEL and ultracapacitor provided the...
One of the links indicated a kit that added electric motors to the rear wheels. Dave M.
Thanks for that information. I won't do it yet, but I may cancel my Hymotion order. Apparently there's only a $75 cancellation fee. I want to...
Mine is shipped to the installer in November (at least that's the prediction). I expect to keep my Prius until it dies. That may be after I do....
Well, not quite today. But possibly this year at least. Dave M.
I'll hold off on the PVs until next year. I originally thought I'd to the PHEV conversion myself. Unfortunately, my wife and I are down to one...
For those of us who want to convert to PHEV, saving money is obviously not the issue. It's to become independent of petroleum products for...
Years ago (I know it was after '78) I saw an article in a Sacramento newspaper about someone who "invented" a water injection system used on...

Well, I've already made my deposit. I don't know if it will ever pay for itself, but I'm doing it to minimize my own dependence on oil. I'm also...
Oh well, I already ordered an L5. I suppose I could get my deposit back (less the $75 processing fee), but would only do that if Norm gets his...
Actually, a 10 A inverter is at 110-120 V. Still I recall reading that the recharge rate on charging from the grid is only 1 kW (4.5 hr to...
I was thinking about the possibility of using an inverter myself. The place it would really be an advantage (if it could be done) is to recharge...
Certainly, if the L5 "fools" the car into thinking the traction battery is at 80%, there shouldn't be any reason (as long as one isn't...
Even at $5/gallon it could take quite awhile. But I agree with you. "It's the principle of the thing." In part I got my Prius because of my...
