    240V Inverter in a Van or Truck

    I ended up with Recipe #3, although with four 100A lithium batteries. 240V Inverter in a Van or Truck Wow, how the Chinese prices went up! Thanks, @Trump. You can get a slightly cheaper inverter, which appears to use all the same components: SUNGOLDPOWER 4000W Max 12000W Input 240VAC Split...

    You may need a leader too to collect the money and get the team registered.

    BRP - showcase

    Initially, electric cars weren't selling to any noticeable extent affecting the car market. All the electric and hybrid cars used to be designed to look weird and futuristic by engineers who hated current gas cars and wanted to build futuristic weird-looking ugly people movers. This went on...

    BRP - showcase

    I am disappointed that the design of the 2-wheeled concepts makes them more attractive to people who have never bought motorcycles before and probably never will.

    Honda CR Electric! Yes!

    I like it. It's a very high-tech F1-inspired design: a stressed battery and a stressed motor!

    Maximum power the different Maps on the ALTA SM?

    From the dyno curves, even if the power does not drop off over time, she can ride below 15mph or over 50mph and generate no more than 11hp.

    Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. Have one coffee in the morning but leave pop, beer and nightime coffees until after the race. Water alone is not enough. Gatorade is better, but I do not like the high sugar and high acidity. If you have a favorite sport electrolyte mix or drink, then drink that. My...

    If you are uncertain about your riding skills then start practicing rutted turns and rutted straightaways. If the soil is moist, deep ruts will start developing within the first hour or two. But do not let this scare you, this will affect all racers and all teams, everyone will be slow and more...

    Hope you guys get yourselves a team. It was so much fun to race in an all-electric team in a 24-hour race! I wish I could drive over to WA and join you in October, but it is quite a hike from Michigan. Those who are unable to race should just come over to help and cheer. This is what I would...

    Definitely a helmet light. Contact @MrTaskRacing. Pretty much all teams at NE24hr Challenge ran his lights. I have come to a conclusion that for racing in the woods helmet lights are way more important than the bike light. They always shine exactly where you are looking. Get two helmet lights...

    Best Alta Generator

    I already have one, but is yours as small and as quiet as a Honda at 1/10 of the price?

    My Moto Van build thread

    Wow, it was only $159 when I bought it last year. But it was worth it, especially with my girlfriend not complaining about having no warm shower, just a pressure washer, LOL.

    My Moto Van build thread

    I actually had to use 25 gallons to wash one bike after the 24-hour race, LOL. No, I do not use the pressure washer for shower. For now, before I figure out something better, I use this: COSTWAY Tankless Water Heater and this: WolfWise Portable Pop Up Privacy Tent
