http://pennyprobe.blogspot.com/2009/05/electric-cars-on-way.html
Monday, May 11, 2009. Electric Cars On The Way. Hey, James I see your comments but I'm not sure how to respond to you. you can e-mail me at aikeru [at] gmail [dot] com. I think it's always exciting to see yet another manufacturer starting on a BEV :) here's a list of the ones I've found so far:. Who doesn't love the Tesla Model S sedan? 300mi range with a 45minute "quick-charge" at $49,9k. Http:/ www.teslamotors.com/models/index.php. Tesla is also supplying Mercedes-Benz with batteries for their EV.

Probe EV Conversion: Current Wishlist
http://pennyprobe.blogspot.com/2009/05/current-wishlist.html
Tuesday, May 5, 2009. While I'll be shopping around for suppliers, here's my current wishlist to be updated as I discover I need more stuff and as I find better prices.

DC-DC Converter (to get my 120V to 12V power for windows, radio, lights, etc.). Http:/ www.evparts.com/prod-DC2420.htm. Vacuum Pump, Brake Vacuum Switch (like in Ep5 of evcapri). Curtis PMC 1221C controller. Being a c...

Probe EV Conversion: August 2008
http://pennyprobe.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 31, 2008. Step 1: Removing the ICE - Part 1.3. Well, sparks flew tonight, but not so much with the romantic bliss of progress. While we were able to drain the fuel tank and deposit its contents into the other two ICE cars my Dad and I own, the rest of the day was spent in futile attempts to remove the exhaust. After beating it with a hammer, I suggested my Dad use a lock cutter I owned, and still the bolts remain firmly in place. Saturday, August 30, 2008. We also drained most of the oil .

Probe EV Conversion: Exhaust Cut Off! :)
http://pennyprobe.blogspot.com/2009/05/exhaust-cut-off.html
Monday, May 4, 2009. Although I'd only removed the exhaust from the engine prior, it's finally off and away! I had some help from my neighbor, Cody. I think I will spend another day removing what I can from the underside of the car (ie: gas tank). I might know of a motor I can purchase but I'm not sure if the timing is right. Regardless, I'll have some shopping to do once I've removed a few more bits and pieces! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 1996 Ford Probe GT. Electric Car or Probe Related Links.

Probe EV Conversion: April 2009
http://pennyprobe.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 30, 2009. Getting my hands dirty. Well, I rearranged the stuff in the garage. I wont be able to park in there now, but I have plenty of room to work on Penny. :). The particular nut that gave me problems before is really stripped bad. I think there's another way to get it off - the other side is attached to something . I'll have to get a picture of it, but it's part of the removal of the drive axles. OK if I read my electric bill right it's about 0.103c /kWh. So let's go with 22mpg. Well,...

Voltage Fueled Electric Motorcycle: January 2013
http://voltagefueled.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Voltage Fueled Electric Motorcycle. Project to convert a 1986 Honda VF500 from an internal combustion engine to an electric drive train. Thursday, January 3, 2013. This project has been cancelled and I have decided to pursue converting a bicycle to electric drive instead. The range to speed to investment ratio is much more attractive when converting a bicycle given the much lighter weight. I will start a new blog describing my electric bicycle conversion project. Links to this post.
