Hi All, Just a note to say that we have successfully converted a 1997 GM S10 to use Hawker G70EP modules. ($175each and 10 more amp hours) That are larger in width than the Panasonics so some rearrangement of the battery box was necessary. 8 of the 26 modules ended up in the b...

I also have an extra Gen1 MagneCharger you can have for free. (assuming this is a factory S-10E that uses the large paddle inductive interface). I'm located in Orange County, CA if that's more convenient for you to pick-up. These weigh about 70 lbs, so shipping outside of stat...

Howdy, I think what Jeff means by "hardwired" is the way the Magnecharger is "permanently installed" at the charging site (instead of being onboard the vehicle). I have two large paddle Magnechargers. One of them is "hardwired" in my garage and I am currently using it to charg...

Tom, This gentleman didn't indicate that it was a *factory built" S-10E! There were a number of private conversion companies and individuals doing S-10 EV conversions before GM and US Electricar, and there were some Solectria S-10's as well. Whereas GM and USE used the Magnech...

If this is a factory S10E, you would need a large-paddle charger. Where are you located? The factory S10Es were model years 1997 and 1998. They are all front-wheel drive, with the EV1 drive train, controller, and charging system. The part about the hardwired system for an S10E...
