How To Do Electric Cars
Posted by admin | Under Education Friday May 28, 2010tenagliac asked:
Since the oil crisis of the 1970’s there has been very little movement away from petroleum fuels. Electric has been around for decades but the logistics just haven’t panned out. This needs to change. Current electric cars & hybrids suffer from range limitations and high battery costs. Here’s an idea how to overcome that. Instead of an expensive semipermanent battery, have lots of rechargeable interchangeable batteries in a national pool. You’d have home overnight charging on a standard outlet, or use a service station swap out for long road trips. The idea is to make it so cheap that people will buy into it eagerly and abandon petroleum. AMERICAN MADE CARS AND BATTERIES ! Good for jobs and the economy and energy independence.
Back in the 60s and earlier Milwaukee had this. Someone someone decided that diesel was cheaper and better and the electric bus fleet vanished along with the power lines over all the streets. I kind of favored inductors under the pavement myself charging ultra capacitors or lithium ion cells.
Hey I have a better idea. Why not have an overhead recharging like a trolley does. All you need is an antenne that makes contact with the overhead charger. Maybe in inground track (the weather will be a factor).
this man is years behind
that’s too logical. hahaha
Later I found this vid which is exactly what I’m talking about.

Shia Aggassi, Project Better Place in conjunction with Renault and Nissan are already doing this in Israel and Denmark.
Have a look on YouTube for the videos.
I’ve been advocating standardised batteries and battery swap stations for the last six years. But everybody told me it wasn’t feasible, well PBP has proved them wrong!
