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.

Montana EV Conversion: Next EV
http://mt-ev.blogspot.com/2010/07/next-ev.html
An Electric Vehicle Conversion of a 1993 Honda Civic del Sol and a 1988 Honda Civic Wagon. Friday, July 30, 2010. With a few lessons learned with the last 2 conversions I've been thinking thinking about and planning the next EV. This one to keep. Why a conversion instead of a Leaf? Our driving patterns are so limited that we don't need a new car with highway capability and the price of a leaf is way out there. Batteries - I don't really want to battle bleeding edge BMS, charger and battery combinations (...

Montana EV Conversion: April 2010
http://mt-ev.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
An Electric Vehicle Conversion of a 1993 Honda Civic del Sol and a 1988 Honda Civic Wagon. Tuesday, April 27, 2010. The MiniBMS boards arrived and all of them are installed with a green led on. The boards went on pretty easy, except I had to remount the controller and the heat gauge sender to leave some room for the boards. Notice, the one board could be pushed sideways to make room for a cable, nice. Twenty boards on the trunk pack. Heat gauge sender mounted on a copper tube strap. Surprise, it works!

Montana EV Conversion: March 2010
http://mt-ev.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
An Electric Vehicle Conversion of a 1993 Honda Civic del Sol and a 1988 Honda Civic Wagon. Wednesday, March 31, 2010. While trying to keep this blog just helpful comments about EV conversions, I've tried to stay away negative comments about parts suppliers. Because of my experience with EV Components, however, I have to suggest that you stay clear of them to keep your conversion on track. It is possible that you could have a problem free experience with them, but that is not my case. Monday, March 1, 2010.

Montana EV Conversion: Solar Bug
http://mt-ev.blogspot.com/2009/07/multimedia-message_22.html
An Electric Vehicle Conversion of a 1993 Honda Civic del Sol and a 1988 Honda Civic Wagon. Wednesday, July 22, 2009. Steve Titus lent me a couple batteries for testing. Here he is standing next to his Solar Bug. It is a 72v EV with a solar panel on the top. With 3-4 amps from the PV panel he should be able to get 10-15 miles per day from the sun!
