Paul and others, Your two options with that device are find a hughes inductive charger from the early to mid 90's that's still working, which worked 4.4kW and wire it up that way or probably the best alternative (although not a departure from 220 Volts) is to wire up your spar...

My S10-EV has a failing battery box blower (pack fan) that Jeff has helped to diagnose. Jeff said that the reliability of the original blowers used in these vehicles leaves a fair amount to be desired, but GM redesigned the blowers sometime after 1998, and the newer replacemen...
