    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    I apologize for presenting a idea I can't fully share with everybody here. I am not going to be posting in this thread anymore. It is way too frustrating for me not being able to give details when people are telling me I am wrong or crazy or whatever it is people think I am. Really, Thank you...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    I am not proposing anything. I came here telling this community what I AM doing. I am starting a company devoted to doing conversions of any type of combustion vehicle to a system I designed from a 110 year old concept, The magnetic transmission. This concept has evolved over the past 100...

    Electric transmissions are more efficient then automatic or standard transmissions. There is no debating that. If you disagree then you need to do research on the field I have been studying as a hobby for over 10 years. http://serieshybrid.com/FreedomFormula/images/Drivetrain_Comparison.pdf...

    The way that site works is your throw an idea out there, people vote on it, quirky builds it without you, then you get royalties. Its strictly a consumer grade nonsense product for something people think is a problem but isn't under 99% of conditions and situations. Its a feel good and safe...

    I posted to quirky about an idea for a fire suppression and battery management solution in one package, What do you guys here think about that? http://www.quirky.com/ideations/203203 I wanted to say thank you to everybody again. You guys have been a great help. While I wish people weren't...

    Thank you all for your great points. I should be paying you guys! This thread has become what amounts to a great consumer focus group discussion. First I've turned my attentions completely to the drive train aspects of fleet conversions as I don't believe fleet owners would care about...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    Luckily I've researched the technology. Luckily others that know what Im talking about have researched the technology. I've been contacted by a few high profile organizations in the plug-in and EREV aftermarket industry. Just because you can't use it and won't buy it does not mean it doesn't...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    I've done some stuff with mini-trucks and none electric or hybrid drive, drive train swapping. I was thinking a universal solution for all types of vehicles would work, but if I have to have something designed for FWD and RWD applications then so be it. I've decided to focus on passenger...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    You know, Your right. I guess Oshkosh engineers got it wrong when they called the ProPulse system a parallel hybrid drivetrain. Thats kind of funny I guess. (from Wikipedia) From both the lack of interest from the DIY community I changed my entry for MassChallenge to converting fleets of...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    Without batteries I'd say $8,000-$12,000 for a full conversion. That isn't bad for a unlimited range extended electric vehicle. Picture it as a pure EV with a battery you can fill up with gas for more range. That is exactly how I want to design it anyway. Of course batteries can be added to...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    I am sorry you don't understand what I'm trying to achieve. All the concept are sound. Spend a little doing research into kit cars and mini-trucks. There are no new concepts here, other then the engine to generator components, besides putting it all into one package for turnkey hybrid...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    You see the sub frame that the motor is mounted on? Every car has some variation of that. You see how the suspension is part of that sub frame? Think along those lines for mounting my system to the car but with universal linkage for mounting in any passenger car. The differential motor...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    Have you dismantled entire cars panel by panel for scrap metal? Uni-body or truck cab, they are designed exactly the same. A number of smaller panels comes together to make a bigger structure with rigid elements to increase structural integrity. Uni-body designs have more structural elements...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    Not to argue.... Based on the definition of a uni-body design I could do exactly that. Do you think a S10 truck cab isn't designed exactly like a uni-body? Except without stamped frame rail in the floor of course. If you made a new stamping of a S10 floor designed to have the uni-body body...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    The idea is to increase fuel efficiency of a existing vehicle by turning it into a parallel hybrid with no mechanical connection to the road. Just like the Oshkosh vehicles with ProPulse previously linked to. Swapping a transmission for a generator and a regular differential for a...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    My system USES the original engine in the conversion, keeps the costs down. BUT it makes it a flex fuel engine. Meaning this conversion service or DIY kit could include a engine rebuild potentially. If I wrote bio-diesel instead of bio-fuel I apologize. Im still developing the exact system...

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    Thanks for the link fechter! This is about the system itself. http://www.oshkoshdefense.com/propulse The goal of my project is to take the existing technology in use by Oshkosh in their ProPulse system & apply it to a universal DIY hybrid conversion system. By taking the batteries out of the...

    Once the design I have is 100% sound I can decide if its more prudent to provide kits or a conversion service. I would love to offer both eventually for DIYers and non-DIYers alike.

    R³ Hybrid Technology Solutions conversion process explained

    I tried to put everything relevant out there so, yeah, it is definitely a little jumbled. One other thing that may or may not be relevant is Im not the one who will be building these DIY systems. Im the designer, even though the system is based on existing technology, it needs to be "engineered...

    *I constantly edit my posts* Hello Everybody, Let me first start by stating that the aim of this thread is for the pure technical discussion for the electric engineering principles behind the Oshkosh ProPulse system, the technology in it that allows it to not use a battery systems as well as...

    R³ Technology: Reuse.Repurpose.Retrofit.

    See, while your post is great and I appreciate it, it seems like you and almost every other member doesn't get whats going on. The stuff I posted here is the PUBLIC VOTING stuff that is suppose to be marketing fluff. It is suppose to be catchy and edgy and hip. I guess my major problem would be...

    R³ Technology: Reuse.Repurpose.Retrofit.

    Posting on these forums and constantly thinking and writing about all the systems has highly increased the intelligence of the wording I am using now. I came across as, if nothing else, rude in my other thread and I know I've sounded rude in this thread. Anybody getting a idea from concept (even...

    It would probably be easiest to develop a hybrid electric bike of some sort first anyway.
