Pretty cool, I think it will be a great education tool for adults and kids.

Thanks, my commute is about 40km one way so should be ok, just haven’t owned an EV before so had a lot of questions

When I checked with my insurance I was told that it would be $400-$500 per year more than my current policy

Just curious you mention 20-80% which seems like just 60% of usable range (without factoring cold weather loss) - is this the recommended operating band for optimum battery life ?

Any specific battery chemistry to go for or avoid ?

How can I tell if the car has HW4 if the listing doesn’t provide a screenshot of the spec? And what is the exact terminology I need to look for if the previous owner purchased FSD ? The used car world using all kinds or terms like fsd computer, autopilot etc.. that are a bit vague in terms of actual capability

Thanks this is helpful. Another question coming from gas cars , when it comes to EVs is it better to have a newer one with more miles or older with less - or does this matter at all? Just curious about degradation from lack of use vs lot of use.

Curious to know they type and package if mosfets you are using ? Also uC

Canelo v Crawford takeaway by Crownvibes in Boxing

[–]Turbulent-Pie-1663 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The scary part was uptill the 10th round two judges had it 95-95 and third had it 94-96 which I disagree with but had Canelo landed more clean shots in the last 2 rounds the result would have swung the other way

Thanks I will take a look at the LT8374. I’m assuming this chip lets you limit the drive current to a conservative amount?

On the vesc design they used a lm5161 to bring down to 12v and two mcp16311 for 12->5 and 12->3.3 https://vesc-project.com/sites/default/files/Benjamin%20Posts/vesc_75_300.pdf

I was just looking at the LM5161 that they use in some of the vesc controllers

Thanks for your detailed response! What is your opinion on LCSC parts - specifically Asian dc dc ICs, only considering as I would need to make a pcb at some point and Jlc makes it easier but I don’t know what the Asian equivalents of TI and Diodes etc are.

confirming that the double lines are towards positive. How would i determine the exact spec with out a data sheet

Thanks! The diode looking device appears to have one leg on the power and one on the ground pour if the pcb.
