fireman a few days ago. . . . they are very nervous about electric / hybrid
cars from a safety point of view. <br>

Would you want to be cutting into a car with the Jaws of Life knowing that
somewhere in the twisted wreckage is a 400S-20P Thunder Power LiPo?? Even
if the batts are A123's, you still have some very large current carrying wires
flopping around somewhere.<br>
<br>
But hey, we're in a planetary emergency, right??<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

With minimal weight in the 300 hp motor (I've read the motor weighs
75#s...wow!!)and no real transmission, the car can be made light. I've also
read that batteries are not complete losses when they lose cells. Only the bad
cells get replaced which keeps repair cost down. I like that aspect of these
cars a lot. And the 200-250 mile range on a charge also works just great with
simple overnight recharge cycles.<br>
<br>
The price tag is the only thing that doesn't compute. Hopefully that will come
down as more people buy into this "new" technology. IF I won the
lottery I would buy one or three.<br>
<br>
These are not your every day golf cart types, by any stretch.<br>
<br>
Every one should know that Nikola Tesla invented the Tesla coil (duh!! make
spark ignition practical), but did you know he invented the electric motor?
(Among many other things that have revolutionized every day life). The more I
read about this man the more in awe I am<br>

Not exactly planes, but for those of us that like E stuff, here is some
interesting video's.<br>
Watch 2 and 3's video's.<br>

<br>
Next time I'm at the track and there<br>
's an E car there, I think I'll put my money on it.<br>
Technology is amazing!<br>
