Hi Steve, you likely caught sight of one of six NiMH S-10EV's owned by individuals on the peninsula. Most folk are surprised at the sharp appearance of these restored EV's, in spite of their age. I cross posted this reply to the S10-EV list, so the owner might respond. The NiM...

I started wondering if it was possible to hook up two smaller 12V batteries, or maybe two smaller 6V batteries to get 12V, and have the S10EV recognize it as a single battery. Also, would this affect the recharging proceedure? It seems that it should be OK, but also it seems t...

Niel, I am glad your story had a happy ending. I just got my S10 EV in March and I loving it. The first day I drove it, I got the bat life light because, well, I did not know what I was doing. Luckily I was only 2 blocks from home at the time. I'm learning to be SOC aware as w...

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...
