    Currie Ezip SLA Battery life

    I cannot tell if my original Currie Ezip battery is now dying earlier because of cold weather here in Dallas this week or if maybe now it is finally time to replace it. I've had the bike three years and I guess I've probably recharged it now beyond its life. Any suggestions? I did buy a second...

    Being interviewed for local TV...help!!!!

    Well that sure was an eye opener. When I was riding the light rail and bus system here for a few years, I figured out the daily commute was about $2.13 per day for a total of 44 miles round trip. That was using the annual pass here which saves you a lot in time and trouble. No need to have 3...

    Being interviewed for local TV...help!!!!

    Yeah...these mainstream media Baribizon Barbie and Ken dolls only want really hot soundbytes. I will make the point that the bike is relatively cheap but the fuel cost is the hard hitter on this. Also I will plug Green Mountain Energy here in Dallas, they only feed the grid with wind and solar...

    Thanks DCM! You think it's safe to go with 1600 MPG???? Sounds about right to me from reading his post.

    Being interviewed for local TV...help!!!!

    I am being interviewed shortly in Dallas about Ebikes and our mass transit, etc. Has anyone really seriously figured out what we get on these things MPG? I was trained in classical music, not math and physics. I have heard it's absurdly high like 1800 MPG. Would love to say that but it sounds...

    Shockdyno's solar E-Zip trailer

    Wow...I want one! This is quite wonderful. Your fifty dollar panels make me really want to pursue the idea of a solar charge station awning at school. A science project for the middle schoolers. I really need a "battery info for dummies" book. I still don't understand how much solar power I...

    Toyota's new electric powered people mover

    That thing is so pathetic, it's almost a cruel joke that the whole concept of an EV is either stupid or impossible. Maybe NiMH patent-killers at Chevron invested in this to get Toyota to design a piece of shit. Houston is going to do ANYTHING it can to get people to think EV is stupid or...

    Saw my first Smart Car Today!

    Very kewl. Have you ever tried the McD's used oil fuel? A neighbor in my old town used it very well. About 800 bucks for the "heater"...he had a pickup...in the rear bed...he said it heats the cleaned oil to 85 degrees or something like that. He had these giant coffee filters in his garage to...

    poll: do you wish for higher fuel prices or lower

    At a party last night, in Dallas, I heard someone say that "whew gas is dropping again...I think I will get that Escalade afterall." A mere twenty five cent drop down from 4 dollars had this asshole thinking already about a big new car. Until gasoline hits 25 bucks a gallon, American drivers...
