Great video Tim, loved the interview with Moggy and the Isetta. Some interesting conversations about interesting conversions! Thanks for featuring Beverly in the outro.😎 Rob
Would be a good idea to use super capacitors connected to the car battery pack? if the battery back doesn't get to expect voltage... for example using LiFePO?
@@chargeheadsuk just did some reading on those new motors fron Chris, very tempting. I was put off the hyper9 as it wasn't high voltage, these seem much better. I've emailed for more info
When is the Zonic 180 going to be available for the DIY'er? I want to upgrade my MR2 SW20 EV conversion for more performance, seems like a good option.
@@chargeheadsuk Do they have insurance for converted electric cars? And if so, how do you validate your work as safe and functional so your converted electric car would not be faulted unsafe and dysfunctional in case of a collision?
If you can in any way do most of the conversion yourself I recommend it. Paying these admittedly skilled people would be crippling unless your rich. If I can do it then most people can do it. I had to teach myself as I went. Its not easy but its far more rewarding to do it yourself. Treat high voltage carefully.
Its certainly not cheap. I'm all for DIY builds as long as they have the right safety features on them, battery disconnect, a proper battery box placed in a safe location etc. Of course adhering to the governments out of date policies too, aka within the points system.
