Full charge, Day 1

I charged the battery pack overnight, and the pack voltage read just under 80V.  I gotta watch out for overcharging...that will shorten my batteries (batteries are PICKY, it seems!)

I dropped the kids off at school, went for coffee, went BACK to school, and then BACK for coffee, and came home. (says something about my habits....).  Up and down hills.

I checked the pack voltage again before plugging her back in....4.9 miles and 75.5 volts, which is still over 90% SOC.  Things are looking better!

Brother Bump is coming over later to play...I'll grab some video to post.

Big Dave and I went down the hill and back, another 4.5 miles, after 1.5 hours of charging.  SOC is down to 80%.  Dave took it around the cul-de-sac and around the block, and we plugged her back in.


Hear the ROAR!
