Aloha All, As a new owner and user of a CommutaCar, I'm still learning the capabilities of my car. I had the un-fortunate case of mis-information, and ended up...
I have a 3KW inverter on my C-car that I occasionally used to use for testing electronics and electrical devices in the field where there is no power, to...
I'd vote for a small generator over an inverter as well if you absolutely need to have one. More importantly though, if you are running your batteries down so...
Ok thanks. Won't there be any danger or theft problems by leaving the generator running unattended? How big of a Generator should I need? I was thinking more...
I guess the generator size would depend on what kind of charger you have and how many amps it draws. My NG-1 draws 18 amps so if I were wanting to use one it...
You could get a small 2KW genny and second battery charger, if the one you have now draws more current then the generator you acquire puts out. If the...
There was once marketed a device called the "Long Ranger", a very small trailer mounted generator which you would attach to the back of your electric vehicle,...
I recently had a terminal meltdown on one of my front batteries in my '80 Comuta-Car. We limped home on the rear pack. (Luckily we were only about 1-2 miles...
Hello all, Anyone interested in going from lead to Li-Ion, I was sent a link because I put myself on the waiting list for availabilty, they are now available...
Dave, Having the old contactor controller is sure an advantage when something like that goes wrong. I too have limped home on 24v when a clamp on battery...
I'm sure you all seen this in one form or other. But does it really work? And is it worth it? AUTOMATIC BATTERY WATER LEVEL... I've seen them, but none in...
Here's some info that I found last night... a bit pricy but might be something to consider... http://store.solar-electric.com/batwatmiscap.html DaveP in Ohio ...
Pro-Fill, And Quick-Fill, Seems like the same product. Both shows Clearance problems. The Mist-Caps seems like a more logical choice, and yes quite expensive. ...
The Mouse By: rxlr888 I was looking at your photo album, and noticed the Mouse. The Interior looks exactly like it, The Radio Shack Indoor/OutDoor Temp on the...
Does anyone have a spare or loose "Commuter Vehicles" badge from the front or rear (I'm assuming they are the same badge... am I correct?) that is in excellent...
Its too bad many of these "ideots" never do the planning or have the capital to start a legitimate china electric car import business. The flybos seem to be as...
Hmm, 70v 205ahr $7500 What have I gained? It seems that Li-Ion is still WAY too new for me, I am still hoping firefly isn't full of hot air and that their...
I have a 1976 48V Citicar. This car is set up all series - no S/P contactor as it has an electronic controller. A few weeks ago one of the batteries went...
i am becoming very cautious about it. i looked all over the website for a "we are located in City, State..." unless i am very blind i couldn't find a phone...
I was wondering about the possibility of doing this, let me know when you run off some and I'd be interested in a few. I was thinking of having someone do a...
In this case I think it is the guys from China that are scamming people. They get someone to become a distributor and send them a car and have them advertise...
After some earlier discussions on range/kwh per mile, I did kind of a real world test yesterday to and from work that might also help discribe with what normal...
I need insurance for my 75 citicar. Are there any Citi/Commu car owners in Wisconsin, that can steer me to a company that will insure my car? Thanks, Phil...
This would be great if true.. http://www.cnn.com/2007/TECH/09/07/electric.car.batteries.ap/index.html [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
I have been following these capacitors, from there conception. It may very well BE true, if it is not suppressed, the company forced out of business,...
This site claims to sell off cars from insurance closures, wrecks, stolen & recovered etc. http://www.autosource.biz/Ad/Prius.htm Might be a source for getting...
