Wow, that's interesting. Can you tell us more about what kind of vehicles people get converted? I was thinking the other day that if I had more money I'd get an electric conversion done on a DeLorean.
- coryrc 17y agoI've had lots of ideas of things to do with a DeLorean. With a hundred kilowatts at your disposal you can make a very impressive flux-capacitor look-alike! People get all kinds converted; DIYers tend toward older pickup trucks (carry lots of batteries, very simple electronics). I've designed all the electronics to interface with the ABS system, radio controls, etc in modern cars like the Mini Cooper. People also liked the RAV-4 platform for versatility, one of the reasons Toyota made that their first (production) EV.
- hughprime 17y agoI'd probably steer clear of the hardcore BTTF modifications like a flux capacitor, though I'd have to at least have a "This sucker's electrical" bumper sticker. And maybe a "1.21 x 10^-4 GW" label somewhere. Anyway, I'll keep it in mind if I mysteriously find myself with ~$50K to waste on a toy in the near future. :)
