Battery Vehicle Society

Hi, It looks like I need to replace my 12v Aux battery. Because the 12v battery only supplies the auxillary components I assume that any car battery of the right size and connectors will do.

Hi Chris, Thanks for the warm welcome you gave us this weekend and the time and effort you put into to making it a successful event. Thanks again and it was good to catch up with you again. It was also good to meet the greenmachine and timpootle for the first time. I certainly came away with some us...

It is actually better (we are less likely to loose your details) if you sign up on-line from the web page.

Great Chris.

Will follow up with a form in a week or two.

That's great - thanks Booboo.
Anymore ?

Come along and say hello to the BVS team at the 2008 Basingstoke Festival of Transport, held at Basingstoke War Memorial Park on Sunday, 11th May 2008 as we celebrate electric vehicles past and present at this annual collection of historic and rare vehicles.

Chris,

Would it be possible to run through a general service process.

I have done battery watering, but need to do things like transaxle oil and anything else.

If so can you let me know what and how much oil I need.

Thanks EVGuru.
It sounds like it is even more difficult to make the best choice.

Anyway for what its worth http://www.eco-drive.co.uk suggests "Continental EcoContact3" or "Michelin Energy" tyres.

OK - thanks

Actually I am quite rough with my charging. Starting: My Avcon is permanently powered and I just plug it in to start. Stopping: I just pop the flap and unplugg without turning the mains off after charging had finished. This probably needs checking, but it appears that it does not take current until ...
