I now own a 1997 Bombardier NEV. Put new batteries in it and so far have hade only minor problems. I cut the openings under the seat and under the center...
Hey congratulations!! So pleased you went ahead and bought it while you could. Those Bombers are very cool. Curious as to which battery model you chose for...
Scott, ... Loop the charger cord through the steering wheel. You won't forget it then!! Lew George <This email is automatically scanned with Norton AntiVirus...
Would possibly a ground fault circuit have tripped if the power goes off and on rapidly? I made sure I had a ground fault outlet installed. Lew George <This...
I have heard of some Delta-Q's going out. So far they have only been replaced. Haven't heard of any repaired yet. Lew George <This email is automatically...
Took AGM Group 27 2003 batteries out because they were no good. I have a Ford Think and a friend that has two, and somehow we ended up with a very good spare...
I have a 2006 GEM and I had a problem with display showing a low charge even though it had been plugged in for days. I unplugged it from the wall and turned...
Lew, I really like the simple solutions you and Rick suggested. Simplicity really is best design overall. Although a great idea, I can't loop the charger...
For anyone interested, I just bought an inverter so I can power my home with my GEM car for only $231.20. Tech4less.com has the SU3000RTXL3UHV (Refurbished) ...
Scott, I'm interested in doing something similar to what you are up to, but I want to mount the inverter on the GEM to be able to power remote AC loads. Do...
I am in dire search of an electric vehicle for sale in the chicagoland area. The only one I have come remotely close to is the zap dealership, and would love...
Suggestion: Check the Chicago area Craigslist for electic vehicles including elecric golf cars that could be street legal. Also check other large metro areas...
Dawn, Would a neighborhood electric vehicle work for you? If so I know where you could get a Gem in the State of WI. However I don't think they are legal at...
Now that the law has changed in my state of Montana and the legal speed limit for NEVs with crash protection systems (like the ZENN) is now 35 MPH, the next...
Kirk, I'll have these figures when the unit arrives. It's a rack mount unit but should be very light without the batts. Cheers, Scott PS. Also tested this...
I would just change the rear ratio way before changing the motor. There are two way to do so. Gears ant tire size. Probably a gear swap would be more...
What's the model number on the controller? If it ends in 353T2 it's the same controller as a GEM and might just be re-programmable. Even if it's not I believe ...
For those of you who have been wondering what you might expect in battery life from Deka Gel batteries in a GEM, here is some first hand information. Tomorrow...
Ricky, Here is the motor and controller model #: Controller : GE C3645SR7A353E1 Motor : Advanced DC model XP-2116 Where do you get software and hardware to...
Curious how many times they were re-charged. If we multiply the number of months (32) by.... let's say 30 days in a month = 960 cycles. That's pretty close...
http://mysite.verizon.net/vze7srd4/GEM.html Contact Robert from this page and give him the controller model number and see if it can be programmed with the GE...
Aww shucks I was hoping you would make it 36 months and 10K. But I think after 9,320 miles you got your moneys worth out of your batteries. I got lucky and...
Ricky, Thanks for the Link on programming the GE controller in the GEM. I will check with Robert and see what he says. By the way, EVPARTS sells an upgraded...
If the Zenn has an advanced dc motor, at least compared to all the ADC motors I've seen, it's probably a way different coupling to the differential. Unless...
After upgrading to a larger rim/tire/spacer assembly I now have a squeaking coming from my right front wheel. It take s a few minutes of driving for it to...
I'm not too bullish on electric cars as the way of the future. Modern electric cars go roughly 100 miles on a charge, about the same as my Baker; so I don't...
