... I got to drive one about a year ago. It's a simple but comfortable vehicle, kind of a GEM with doors, but I just couldn't afford $12K, so that's why I...
Hi, I just found this group. I have a Dynasty "IT", that lokks sort of like a New Beetle (Thinnner, taller, 4 door with more rear storage). It has a 72volt...
Found a neat 3-wheeled car that could be classified as a moped in some states (CA, at least), but they don't import it. Thought some might like to read their...
Russell, I replaced the six 12-volt, group 27 size, AGM sealed Champion batteries with six flooded deep- cycle batteries because the original batteries ( I...
... Why did the batteries need changing, running out of steam or did some of them die? If I remember right, they use standard flooded golf cart batteries...? ...
Hello, Just found this small group this evening. I drive a Bombardier NV that I have owned about 2 months. Just did a battery change after two months of...
I finally got the controller from Golf Tech, this time the 36- 48V/275A version that takes a 2-wire pot input (if you saw the pic of the previous version, it's...
Mine seems to be the only project currently in progress, so I feel guilty when I don't send in an update: The controller that "didn't work" turned out to need...
... For NEVs, yes, you need a license. I don't know about FLA, but in CA, if it has 3 wheels and maxes at 30mph, it is considered a moped, and you need a...
I am in need of an NEV --basically i lost my florida drivers license and as a salesman for my fathers construction co, i need to get around town to talk to...
Turns out my Golf Tech controller was defective - the tech talked me through the test procedure and said one of the repair guys must have put in the wrong...
I just got the rebuilt Curtis controller from Golf Tech today by UPS. It's 36-48V/300A and no "zero pedal lockout", which means if you have the pedal floored...

My most recent addition to this project was acquiring a set of 155/80/13 wheels and tires from Les Schwab. I posted a pic and you can see the black painted...
Seems I haven't been doing much on the NEV - I did get the board for the floor cut to size, and some angle steel attached to a board to help support the seat...
OK, folks, some pictures have been uploaded to http://photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/nevs/lst - under "HempEV's NEV" (besides, it's the only album there). The...

The Elcar, a 1970s competitor to the commutacar is a funny looking little NEV. I love them. I have a possibility of getting a pair of them, one running, one...
I replaced the flat spare for my Ranger EV, and the same place had the right size of wheel for the NEV (but only one of them). A nearly- new tire went on the...
I still have a bunch of dead or nearly-dead 6 and 12V batteries around the house, so I'm getting those to the recycler ($1 for the golf cart ones, $0.50 for...

I got a 48V/22A power supply (meant for a mainframe rack system) from eBay, but while I expected it was going to have an output more like a charger (56 to...
One of the two NiCds had some reversed cells, and my attempt to charge them resulted in a geyser of alkali! So I switched to Plan B, which was a set of 9...
Since I am working on converting a golf cart to an NEV, I thought I'd get a discussion list going. I have driven the GEM and Dynasty NEVs, but I don't have...
