Generators at plants get power from fuel much more efficiently. And if you charge your EV from solar panels on your roof, that's even better.

Thanks for the comment. Actually, I consider this project to be remarkably simple, except for the wiring, whcih I had my buddy do. So simple in fact, that I was able to do it with no previous experience. It makes you wonder why the big manufacturers have been dragging their feet for so long.

Check out rqrileyDOTcom 4 recumbant bicycle plans, or car plans, one hybrid has 125/225 mpg) The recumbant bike is called "Ground Hugger" and there are short vid clips of it and other plans/projects. These use typically all or a combo of a few of materials: wood,fiberglass,carbon fiber,steel. Oh and foam..Fiberglass or a bit of carbon fiber over foam and glass is way to go. I have plans for the Trimuter (80s tech still sold for $100) EV which were given to me,and I am willing to give 2 anyone.. |
