N2: Have you considered contacting battery companies and offering your “battery testing service” for the next gen EV batteries?
just upgrade the motor to a 8″ or 9″ if you do a conversion. i like driveing my ev more than my dino powered one. for all my around town runs it’s great. its fun to drive and cheap. just watch the amps and its fine. my conversion is only 72 volts it would get better performance at higher voltage.
this thing would be the baddest thing ever for road hunting…
Great job

I think all this information is mentioned about a hundred times or so????
Maybe you want to watch a few videos first
You want more speed – get more volts…
Hi. Congrats on your project. I’m researching EV Conversions myself.
A few questions, if you don’t mind:
1- What kind of motor are YOU using?
2- What kind of motor controller?
3- What kind of baterries?
4- What kind vehicle did you convert?
5- What was it’s weight before and after conversion?
6- How much did your conversion cost (not including the cost of the vehicle prior to conversion)?
Thank you.
yeah man …let’s hear it for easily upgradeable open-source electric vehicles!
Contrags, I’m glad the samurai is working out. I also would like to applaud your never ending currage to not give up and to keep it up even with all your setbacks. Again Congratulations. Now if only I could get my damed EV to work. I’m on my second donor bike. the frist one I twisted the frame on. el cheapo dept store bike.
Great work! It’s looking great. Still need to get a controller in mine, I see Paul is finally selling some kits on his website but they are priced a bit higher than I expected. I think I would still like to go that route if he’ll cooperate with me, but I have contacted him 3-4 times in the past with no replies. I’ll have to try again sometime, maybe give him a call.

Hey, 47 mph is not bad at all!! I can only get to 27 mph in mine!
Your videos are awesome! I’m sure I wouldn’t have finished my project so fast if it weren’t for the inspiration I got from watching your videos.
