    Very good consumption! With 52 kWh available you could travel over 400 km

    12.2KWt on 100Km very good consuption on old not so aerodinamic car, my frend on Kia Nero get 13KWt in 80- 90km/h speed.

    Good video and It was really good to see you again Thomas! :) The car is even better looking when you see it live! :) And sorry if i scared you with the mighty Polestar, i am not sure I would have stopped myself if some maniac was driving next to me waving his hands ;)

    Wow, very nice consumption an ID.3 will eat his hart out 🤔😂 I manage a global consumption of 20 kWh/100km during the whole year in the Netherlands, and I often drive 100kph instead of an higher speedlimit in the evenings. So very well done and a good use of your skills and profession!

    Well done, what an awesome project. Keep up the good work. Seeing the things you have achieved, I have a project on my mind for a while now and would love to hear your thoughts. I was thinking of purchasing a damaged Dacia Spring for about 5000-6000 € and convert it to a home storage device. The idea was to keep the battery in the car and still charge it with the on board charger. Then remove the HV leads from the motor control unit and connect them with a solar inverter. What do you think, will it work or am I overlooking something. Best regards Stefan from Germany

    I had the same idea 10 years ago, but now the cell price of new EVE LF280K Grade A with 6000 cycles is actual approx 73 €/kWh. So new LFP cells for a 30 kWh battery are aprox 2200 €.

    Så om jag ska välja mellan att behålla min bils originalväxellåda och köra Nissan Leafs reduktionsväxel så kan det vara mer bränsleekonomiskt att välja det förstnämnda?

    Are you using just the motor and controller or the whole stack with charger and DC-DC converter? Last time I looked into the resolve controller, you had to use the original battery from a Leaf but now I see u use VW Batteries?

    @@flyingtools It seems to me that the reason one measures capacity is to identify where improvments can be made. A 10% loss in charging is an area where improvements probably need to be made, especially if one is using solar panels for charging.

    @@BenMitro i think that the car manufacturers has been struggling with this a lot, but converting ac to dc will always be hard to achieve without power losses. The solar power is almost free in my case, so i can take that loss.
