| RAV4-EV Secrets: Plugs into solar, instant Volt |
 |
RAV4-EV can be plugged into the wall, or into
a rooftop solar system, can be fast-charged,
can be controlled by the owner.
A fast charger could have been installed by
Toyota to plug into the wail.
Add a small engine-generator, and it's an
instant plug-in serial hybrid with 120 miles
of all-electric range, 3 times what the
proposed Volt would have (if GM were
serious).
Proves that GM could make such a car right
now, is stalling and lying.
AMAZING, people see the EV and solar power,
and want to do it themselves. But GM and
Toyota are refusing to sell an EV, which
makes it all possible. Without a plug-in
car, you can't use the solar power credits to
charge your car, and the money formerly spent
on gas to pay off the solar system.
There has ALWAYS been more demand for EVs
than supply, contrary to the LIES of Toyota
and GM, and exposing the perfidy of the
so-called "air resources" board -- CARB.

| RAV4-EV Battery story - part one (1) |
 |
RAV4-EV uses EV-95 batteries, as you've
heard. What are these marvelous batteries?
Are they invisible, immaterial? Can they be
for real?
Here's the story of how they came to be, and
why they work in the Toyota RAV4-EV. And why
GM never was much interested in using them
for an EV -- because, it seems, they work.
Something GM is afraid of.

| RAV4-EV an instant Chevy VOLT: correcting phony engineers |
 |
Chevy Volt Scholium.
How the serial plug-in hybrid EV works: it
consists of a pack, chosen for the daily
commute, a 40-mile pack, 60-miles pack, or
100-mile pack, that runs down to empty during
the daily commute, just like a real EV.
Normally, the gas genset doesn't come on
during the daily commute; only if you need to
go farther, for occasional long trips, or if
you forgot to charge the battery last night.
Just like an EV, which it is, the battery
runs down, and it gets charged overnight.
Overnight slow-charging HELPS the grid
balance loads, and it makes NO SENSE to
charge the battery during the daytime in
ordinary driving.
So the plug-in serial hybrid EV runs EXACTLY
LIKE AN EV for the first 40, 60, or 100
miles, just like a RAV4-EV.
If the genset comes on, it doesn't charge the
battery! It makes no sense to use it to
charge the battery, because you want the
battery low in case you need to do regen
braking, for example, on a long downhill run.
The genset comes on, and we use it to run the
car directly. It's true, the power can be
run into the battery, just for leveling-out,
but it is NOT SUPPOSED TO CHARGE THE BATTERY!
Of course, it could do so, just as I could
charge the EV directly from my solar rooftop
system in the daytime. But it's not
advisable.
Both the grid, and the cars, need energy at
the SAME TIME, during the daytime peak. So
that's why we charge slowly overnight (to
help the grid balance loads, and avoid
turning down generators to warm-start), and
also why "vehicle to grid" makes little
sense.
Both the grid, and the auto fleet, need the
power at the same time, and both don't need
power off-peak. So charging the car off-peak
makes sense, using it to power the grid
instead of driving makes it into little more
than a lump of coal battery pack from a
diamond EV.

| ECarCo 6: Commuting in a RAV4-EV is fun |
 |
Using a very long extension cord, keeping up
with the other cars. Why not more commuter
RAV4-EV??
Most cars you see in this video go less than
40 miles per day. Why not let them use the
NiMH EV-95 batteries to drive in EV-only
mode, as GM proposes? But GM is not serious.

Only about 15% of the energy from the fuel
you put in your tank gets used to move your
car down the road or run useful accessories,
such as air conditioning. The rest of the
energy is lost to engine and driveline
inefficiencies and idling. Therefore, the
potential to improve fuel efficiency with
advanced technologies is enormous. With an
Electric Car it costs just $2.00 per 100kms
with MUCH more performance than with petrol
at $20.00 per 100kms.

| PlugInConversions using Nilar NiMH, EV1 and RAV4-EV |
 |
We can't buy an EV1 or RAV4-EV, but use of
this picture of the EV1 (and the glimpse of
the RAV4-EV) shows how the EV1 could have
been used to help sell other cars.
The new plug in conversions battery box and
firmware shows how plug-in conversions must
be done; the control system has to keep the
battery less than full, so that it can
opportunity-recharge when braking to a stop
or going downhill.
The "spoofing" board has to communicate with
the Toyota on-board computer, so that it
can't determine that there are additional
batteries; Toyota installed a routine that
detects and defeats extra batteries, it has
to be fooled.

| RAV4-EV VOLT Lisa commentary part 1 |
 |
RAV4-EV is a REAL EV with an imaginary "range
extender". VOLT is an IMAGINARY ev with a
real range extender.
RAV4-EV is still pretending to be a
100-mile-all-electric-range VOLT, and
commentary on actual driving of an EV.
