    Conversion of a Bultaco Sherpa

    Initially I wondered if your overheating could be caused by binding or worn misalignment. However looking through your build I don't think that's the case. I like the aesthetic of the controller on top of the motor and the cover over the controller, but it looks compromised with regard to...

    Trouble With the Car You're Still driving?

    Glad you're sorted. My concern wasn't about how you would repair the linkage 'many ways to skin a cat' more that you could potentialy be without transport during a coronavirus lockdown.

    I am with Hillhater on this apt example. 1 hour for an engineering apprentice using hand tools. No trolling I don't understand why you think it would be difficult.

    APL's DIY axial-flux motor

    Absolutely APL, I noticed earlier you had a green bandsaw in your workshop. Is it the type with a coolant spray and recirculating tank? If it is have you considered adding bags of ice to the tank? I would tape the faces of the the magnet then sandwich between aluminum plates. Possibly add ice to...

    Trouble With the Car You're Still driving?

    Just before christmas I visited my sister. She wanted help blowing up baloons. I went to my car to use a mini compressor that promptly fused my auxillary socket.

    Congratulations and good luck with your controller/bms. Would it be possible to have some basic dimensions for the proposed motor. The specs sound very promising and you clearly know what you are doing.

    CHEAP NEW ORIGINAL 18650 21700 BATTERY CELLS, POUCHES AND PACKS

    I bought a couple of 10s packs from Turmich about this time last year. They were less than £120 each. the packs arrived quickly, were well balanced and well packed. After a year and perhaps 75 cycles they still have excellent capacity. I would happily buy from Turmich again.

    looking for ideal base for electric car conversion

    Hi Izeman. May I suggest an Opel Calibra. Much larger than a CRX and way more numerous. .26 cd,1200kg. Parts I would think are cheap and easily available. As there was a 4wd version, there must be space for a diff at the rear of a regular fwd to make rwd. Probably use a shortened prop and diff...
