I’m mixed about posting this item about a 500 mile range EV because I’m very suspicious about it’s veracity. Considering they are using the same basic equipment as the RAVolt (Advanced DC 9″ and Flooded Pb Acid batteries), the claim seems to violate the basic laws of physics. You’d need a lot more than a magic transmission to get 15x more efficiency out of my system.
Don’t rush out an put in a down payment…I’m watching EVDL for more information.
10/6 update: The claim for Pb is “just” 150 miles so only 5x better than the RAVolt and still deep into the bullshit zone of sanity meter. AND…no one on EVDL has been able to turn up details beyond the one local press story.
