Electric motors are more efficient than ICE motors. My electric chain saw is an example. Can you imagine trying to use ICE power tools? Never!

We could of (should of) been the world leaders in alternative energy well before other counties.
Yes we could have picked up and ran with Solar back in the 80's but we didn't get off the block's.
Not a bad looking wagon, wonder how long before Oz gets any...

It's like "Back To The Future" a Classic Rangie converted to electric.
I am pretty sure that this is the car featured in LRO earlier this year.
If so the price of conversion was GBP 50K, using second hand Tesla batteries from crashed cars as Tesla don't sell batteries to anyone.

I would certainly consider them for my next project.
7 modules would give me 35kwh @ 150V = US $9065 (plus delivery) weighing a mere 125Kg ( my 28.8kwh pack weighs 256kg)
