You will lose up to 1/3 of your range in the cold. Even 'though our winters are not brutal here, you will still notice that the batteries will feel a bit...
You should have no problem. You have to obey the visited states laws while on the road, but if the driver and vehicle are legal in their home state they are...
Larry Dye from Electric Wheels called me yesterday and said, "I hear you're having some problems out there." He saw Michaels subject for this thread "Xebra no...
Hi Troy, I doubt that you have a problem with your motor. I have only ever heard of one motor getting "toasted" and I'm not even sure what the circumstances...
Hi Julie, I'm pretty anxious to get mine installed also, I was going to do it Saturday, but now I need to make run up to Chico for the weekend, so maybe next...
Dennis, I'm so glad to hear this. I was feeling so sorry that you bought and were disappointed, but it sounds like you have a great plan in place to be able...
Here is a message I sent to powerdesigners.com: I have 5 powercheqs on a 6-battery set that connects to a 74-volts charger in my ZAP Xebra PK electric pickup....
Dear Xebra's: Just wanted to express my appreciation for Paktrakr. Obviously, based on the number and type of posts here, the Xebra benefits from this product....
I am excitedly awaiting the arrival of my PakTrakr! Wanda in Oregon ... ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be...
Has anyone that installed a paktrakr written any 'tips' for easy installation? I hope to try to get mine in tomorrow since my baby says "Pay attention to me!"...
The installation of the PakTrakr is rather straight-forward, Julie. "Read and follow all label instructions" is the first thing that pops into my alleged mind....
Welcome to the family, Bruce! Cool- your SD looks like a twin to mine... what color is the interior? I'm curious, looks like the body has some ripples like...
Like Fred said, the installation is well documented in the supplied instructions. I guess the only 'tip' I would have is to lay out the "medusa" of wires ahead...
No wire-altering. The PakTrakr is ready to install as delivered. I have added a picture in the photo area of this group (GPEV folder) showing suggested dash...
DO NOT USE ANY EQUALIZER between the main 6-pack and the 7th battery. Reason #1. Because the banks are on separate chargers, you will confuse both chargers...
The remote is just the sensor that gathers all the information from the batteries and sends it via one pair of wires to the display. I was a little perplexed...
Sean, Thanks for clarifying that. So, I will have 5 PowerCheqs for sale at half price. I guess I will put them on eBay. Dave Roper ... charger ... charged ... ...
Looking closer = good idea. I "accidently" tried to connect mine to the wrong plug on the back of the display. It didn't make contact for very long but it...
I went to Zap's headquarters for a tour of their operations and they let me take some killer pictures! There are a few new colors featured in this picture...
Looks good, Sean. I'm concerned about theft, about some loser thinking this is a gps display or something (esp with Norm's monitor.) I'm gonna have to get...
Nope, I believe it's the same fiberglass used previously. The dealer told me that Zap bailed on putting solar panels on the SD for the very reason (whereas the...
You bring up an interesting point about "cook" time that I'll bet you have an opinion on. If someone were to use their Xebra for let's say 2 or 3 mile trips...
Ok, I have the remote hooked up and the original paktrakr display works fine. Now, which steps should I take? It looks like I need to connect the es1r to the...
wow, now I'm both confused and depressed. I went out with my laptop to see if I could make sense of things (found some hyperterminal file in my programs on...
Certainly most theives are not high-IQ types, but if someone thinks a PakTrakr is a GPS, they really need to find a new line of work! Your message reminded me...
I've wondered about that too, but from what I've been able to glean from the various EV forums, the charger will compensate for the short trips and not cook...
