i understand


i guess if it were me i would like to know just how far i can go
maybe theres a store 20 miles away that i like to go to
but ive never had it past 17 that sorta thing

im not saying id push the batteries to the brink of death
id just explore the range more (at 80% dod of course)


i like your concept
i live on a hill and going up and down would be murder in an ev
its about 2 miles and the incline would probably cut at least double that in range
so my ears are always open to EV builders who live with hills
