Lithium batteries are very efficient, but they also are very expensive. I have created this link to help you to figure out the cost of the batteries for your conversion. It is a Microsoft Excel Worksheet, so it will only work if you have excel on your computer. Battery Cell Cost You will need to enter the password concept1 to use it. Each LifeBatt ion lithium iron phosphate battery packs has from 12 to 144 volts so that you can mix and get exactly the battery DC volt power that you need for your inverter and electric motor application. LifeBatt cells can be wired in parallel or in series to meet your total amperage requirements. Inverters are designed to handle DC voltages, and the more you can send with high amps, the cooler the inverter will operate. The more DC volts you can send to your inverter, the higher the ACV output you can use to operate you electric motor. The higher the voltage you go the more performance you get. LifeBatt Lithium Ion Iron phosphate battery cells are amazing cells because of their combined ability to deliver high DC voltage and amperage in a light weight and energy efficient cell package. Their batteries life is calculated to be 5,000 to 10,000 cycles when the depth of discharge is between 60 - 70%. If discharged all the way each day of driving, they will still last for 1,000 to 2,000 cycles. (3 to 6 years) Tesla is using the standard Cobalt Oxide cells that very easily can go exothermic and cause a nasty explosion and fire if anything triggers them, say a minor accident that crush some of the cells. If this happens to the LifeBatt LiFeP04 cells, they will not cause an explosion or burst into flames because LiFep04 cells will not burn or explode if overheated or crushed. LifeBatt cells are both safe and affordably price. Do not be fooled by other LifeBatt look-a-likes. LifeBatt is the best of the best. Prices & Specs Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery Packs Prices & Specs Today's EV conversion requires thousands of DC cells configured into a battery box commonly referred to as a battery pack (BP) that are hooked up in parallel to produce the total sum of their individual cell voltage. Most EV AC induction motors require 220 to over 450 volts of 3 phase AC power. This is accomplished by sending high levels of DC power to a AC power inverter that turns it into high voltage AC power. We use them all the time in automobiles that have television and video games for the kids, but those inverters are much smaller and produce single phase 110 volt power which is a fraction of what is needed to power an AC motor large enough to effectively turn the drive wheels of vehicles. Electric Motor Cars of Orlando Florida specializes in converting gasoline and diesel vehicles into energy efficient electric vehicles commonly referred to as EV in the industry. We also offer both solar electric generators and wind mill electric generators to help make your electric vehicle a net zero cost as far as your fossil fuel electric utility company bill is concerned. As a matter of fact, our solar and wind mill systems will actually reduce your electric bill because it will generate a lot of the electric energy needs you use every day in your home or work place. We sell batteries, motors, inverters, converters, chargers, and EV components to help the beginner or the expert converter to turn a ICE vehicle into a EV. To learn more about what we have to offer click on this web link: Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery Packs Prices & Specs Electric Motor Cars of Orlando Florida has done extensive research to find the best deals on reliable EV components. Don't be fooled by companies who want you to pay for something that you can't pick up. Our products are in stock and can be shipped overnight delivery. They also carry a full one year warranty. The best batteries for the electric vehicle are Lithium Ion Iron Phosphate. There is also Lithium Ion Polymer battery, but it will explode if punctured and also will overheat. The Phosphate type is much more stable. My concept1 electric vehicle conversion utilized an ICE generator to recharge the batteries and to send excess electricity back to the motor and other electric components. As breakthroughs in technology continue to happen, we will see the cost, weight and efficiency of ICE generators improve. This quote taken from Dr. Kaku web site regarding ICE generators that produce electricity: A high-efficiency heat engine concept on which we have done considerable work at NASA’s John Glenn Research Center is the free-piston Stirling engine. This remarkable design eliminates the kinematic couplings and thus reduces the engine to only two moving parts, the displacer and power pistons; a linear alternator produces power directly as electricity. Small, light, and efficient, the Stirling engine—and not the internal combustion engine—may be the real future of the automobile engine. Your comments are always welcomed.
