    Buick Lacrosse 2012 e-assist moto-alternator

    Very interested in Honda IMA hack. Would also purchase populated resolver board to make the Honda IMA ( which I already have) conversion. Looking to have a 150V Chevy Volt (Ampera) battery source for my reverse trike build. Great work on making this conversion possible. Thanks for posting all...

    Investing in Li Batteries

    I currently use Ameritrade. Trying to find a way to reduce all the hidden charges. Recently was charged $38.00 when my TSNP stock was renamed TSNPD from a stock split-merger and will probably be charged again when it becomes renamed HMBL later this month. At this time, I do not have a tax free...

    Investing in Li Batteries

    ZeroEm. Total USA has major storms. First requirement, choice of terrain. Second requirement, storm cellar, or equivalent. Son and I have built sawmills and know how to use them. Trees are everywhere where he is looking. Lax building codes means, possible conversion of pole barns to housing...

    Investing in Li Batteries

    Real estate takes a chunk of money to invest in. I don't have that much, unless I sell what I have. If I do that, where would I live ? Son wants to buy in Alabama and live a simple lifestyle, self sufficient as possible. I'm too old to start over !

    ZeroEm, I would be interested in what you find, IF you do "poke around". I'm not very computer literate and am up to my eyeballs with projects. Thank you for any new information. Harold in CR

    Investing in Li Batteries

    All good input in this last part of the thread. Agree with the possible new USA administration comments. I feel the Lithium market will fade out. There are many new materials being investigated. Nickle is the biggest component, so, that is what I was looking into. As far as looking into other...

    Investing in Li Batteries

    Thanks for the input. 1 company is mining Canada and they are extending their area. Another is a neighboring area to a working mine. These 2 are hopefully able to make things work out. The other 2 are new prospects and I am in for a pittance. With the advancement in EV's, the Nickle has to come...

    Investing in Li Batteries

    Thread seems to have fallen off a cliff, so, lets see if anyone is interested ? Have not seen any real mention of investing in Nickle. Seeing as how 80+ % of EV battery cells are composed of Nickle and E. Musk has opened the door to massive battery manufacturing, I have put a pittance of my...

    Buick Lacrosse 2012 e-assist moto-alternator

    I asked Lebowski, over a year ago, if there were any plans to do the code, and he responded that he just did not have the time to do it. I believe that there is more interest in these alternators now, so, maybe someone that understands code writing could check out if it could be done. I would...

    Buick Lacrosse 2012 e-assist moto-alternator

    The voltage is not as important as the amps. Voltage works on RPM range. I want to do 144V or more on mine, but it takes 600 Amps or more to get real performance from the alternator you have. e-vector spells this out in his posts. It will take a Johannes Huebner brain, coupled to an automotive...

    Frogslayer hit the nail on the head. :bigthumb: :bigthumb: People that live in apartment houses, high rises, etc. are the easiest ones to become contaminated. They live in polluted air, no open windows in a lot of these places, elevators are a necessity and everyone pushes the buttons 24/7...

    Project: Replace 18650 cells in laptop battery (w/pictures)

    I did the battery cell swap on my Toshiba Satellite laptop and it won't do anything now. Just shows no battery detected. My Sony Vaio shows no battery detected but runs fine off the charger connection. Battery is there just pitifully low voltage. Laptop is used as desktop only.

    Using BadBoy charger for 30S battery

    John, you are correct in that I am aware of everything you just posted, including changing out the resistive wire in these suicide shower heads, before I went Solar water heating.I'm just hoping some the educated guys come back in and educate me/us. I am heeding all their advice, just want to be...

    Using BadBoy charger for 30S battery

    Maybe I should say why I am/was interested in this charging system. Many years ago, I bought a belt drive 4KW ?120/240 volt AC alternator and attached it to a 10 to 1 gearbox that was attached to a 15 foot diameter propeller that I carved and placed this on a 60' tower that I built. I ran 2 hot...

    Using BadBoy charger for 30S battery

    This idea I have used for my 83V (74V nom.) , but it creates some manipulation to reach a very close balance voltage among segments. The Chevy Volt battery carries a nearly perfect balance of it's own, (.01-.015) usually. I am following along the Lee Hart conversation ( I believe Don Bonn was...

    Using BadBoy charger for 30S battery

    Thanks for the encouragement. We have made these threads trying to get some input from those that DO know about the Bad Boy charging. Would you have some info to steer us into a positive direction, HMmmm ? I am working on the current, just haven't posted all the info I have been gathering up...

    Using BadBoy charger for 30S battery

    I need to dig out the rectifier and test the voltage. Busier than a 3 peckered Goat the last few weeks. :roll: I would install a 10-12 Amp circuit breaker or fuse between the house supply and the charging device. The item in the link I sent in the UPDATED PM might be all we both need for...
