stevi BS: Electric vehicle questions (56* d) RE: BS: Electric vehicle questions 16 May 09


Not read every post in detail but why not a car using modern li-on battery technology using two batterys. Solar collectors on board to recharge a second battery to switch over automatically when battery one reaches discharge then recharges the other battery and so on. Ok during the day i here you say! Or petrol stations stations can become battery change over stations pull in and change over your battery rather then fill the tank. Should be able to get the range that way!
At night when the sun is gone use the battery change over method if they at spaced within a certain distance of one another. How long does ot take to change a battery?
Only drawback could be with the change over method we may be generating a bigger carbon footprint in recharging the batterys at the stations. Could use solar energy to do that though!
