Greetings C-Car friends. I recall when I joined the group there was a lot of chatter about a C-Car meetup in Florida. My wife and I travel quite a bit (kiddo too!) and are eyeing a quick trip back to

Tesla packs are still pretty expensive, that's my only gripe. Two in series would be excellent, though. I went with SPIM08HP LiPo cells out of old Chinese hybrid buses. Each cell is rated at 8AH and

I have an eBay search for C-cars as well. My wife and I were laughing at that terribly overpriced red heap. Hey, shoot for the stars, right? I'm very interested to hear more about this master list of

So has anyone worked out how to setup car with Tesla packs? Would two in series be enough? It appears one pack is model S is 24 volt at 250 Ah (5.3kWh)

Those are impressive ratings from the Volt modules. My CCar requires a lot less to get moving than 600A. It has the original 2 gauge wiring and contactor setup. I've managed 10-15MPH on level ground

I love the idea of using leaf, volt etc. Cells. My big problem is that I drive year round in Michigan and I can't charge them in temps that much of my winter has. I do have some ideas to eliminate

jerry if a citicar? can go 70 mph it will never happen at best you can do 32mph my coumtercar will go 60mph it wes tom great car witch a electric engring at the plant at 30 mph it is a scary ride

If you are running a lower AH battery can that hurt the batteries from fast discharge of accelerating? If you went let's say 160ah insted of 220ah for example. I have big boys in my car now. But

I could not envision buying used.? Except maybe Trojan and then after I've applied my test gear to determine internal resistance, charged but OC voltage and the CCA tester which provides a good

An epoxy, ply body car. Cool, it is a c.car aswell? Love to see a pic of this. Also I agree about the speed. I get mine to about 40 mph and it is white knuckled. The wheel base and solid axle makes it

Hi Jacob and All,? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? You certainly should be very afraid of a CCar over 45 mph, much less 70mph.? Mine is a epoxy/ply body/chassis? trike subcar with good brakes and 30% lighter,

I'd be afraid to go 70MPH in a CCar! I haven't driven mine over about 20MPH yet, and even that has been an experience... Good luck! While I haven't looked as much into Volt or Tesla modules, and the

Hi Jacob and All,? That isn't wise as the Leaf modules won't handle the power demand at all plus they normally have 20-40% capacity loss when buying them used.Far better are Tesla or Volt modules.?

I vote for replacing the batteries with Trojans (the extended life version of the T-104) and a smart charger Iota 45 volt 3 stage charger. About 6 years ago I sold my so-equipped Citi to a friend.?

Agreed, your worst battery drain the rest of the pack. Buy new helps alot. I use a pro charging systems charger. Works great 4 years now and the batteries get about 90 of the miles they did when

I think everyone will agree whatever brand is chosen to use, the key is buying new if you want trouble free. I chose interstate and have been fine. I also chose to upgrade to a Delta q charger,

Probably not the answer you're looking for, but I plan to upgrade the batteries to li-ion, with used battery modules from a Nissan Leaf. I haven't compared prices (I suspect they're pretty decent

I got my batteries at "SAM'S CLUB". The cheapest batteries around. Bob

Hi folks. Kriss here from Normal, IL.? ? I need to decide whether to get a new set of batteries for this year or sell my 1975 citicar.? It is original with contactors, original charger, etc.? Some
