After having my truck for a few months and around 60 miles, the old lead acid pack gave in. I loved driving the truck but could not see the expense of putting...
The lead acid batteries in the Ranger are 60 Ah. If you used 33 Ah hour batteries you would need to double the number from 39 to 78. They would weigh more and...

Hi, I recently was lucky enough to acquire a 1998 Ford Ranger Electric with a dead battery pack. I know some of the details about why it is almost impossible...

Any one done the remanufactured/requalified pack replacement lately? In the beginning of the year when we tried to do it thru my local Ford EV dealer, they...
I have a 1998 OEM Ford EV ranger. I currently charge the truck off a 220v Electric Dryer circuit. I wanted to be able to operate the Charging system from a...
The neutral and ground wires must be connected to each other for the EV circuit to work properly. Also your 6KW truck charger draws about 30 amps at 240v...
Practically speaking, the Ranger EV cannot charge off of 120 VAC. Mine used to draw 24A peak at 240 VAC. Since Watts = Volts * Amps, if you cut the volts in...
Call charging from 120VAC "inconvenience" charging if you wish. I do not have the luxury of 240VAC. I can find standard 120VAC 15A outlets for my on-board...
Good points. You are absolutely right that one of the benefits of an EV should be that it can plug in anywhere and everywhere. Restricting it to proprietary...
Thanks for your response ... your clarification of the current limitations when working with a step-up transformer is appreciated .... One other question .......
It looks like it merges the two hot legs from 2 seperate 120V circuits to give you 220V. You won't get enough amps to charge your truck. Even if you could...
Thanks .... Sounds like I need to call an Electrician and have a 220v outlet installed @ the other location I will be charging from most often .... ... From:...
It probably doesn't matter since it sounds like you aren't going to try it, but the 2 legs of 120 you take to make 220 must come from the two different hots...
Correct. Using the OEM charger, you have to use 220V. However, it is possible to bypass the onboard charger and replace it with a Manzanita Micro, either 30A...
That is what I have done with a Manzanita PFC20. My 1996 TDM Ranger was missing the BMS when I obtained it. Therefore, the AVCON setup would not work unless...
I recently purchased a '98' Ranger EV. It looks like it will need a battery replacement soon. I've heard that remanufactured batteries are available from ...
Thermal management is only an issue as you reach the end of the charge. By setting the Manzanita to stop charging at 80% or around 250V, you could set up a...
There are actually two 1998 Ranger EVs on eBay at the moment, one is in Florida and the other is in LA. The one in LA needs new batteries and a charger. The...
