The ForkenSwift's Hawaiian twin has taken its first drive!

FYI, it's a 72v setup, with six 12v marine batteries.
Oh, to have new batteries...
He's done 21 miles with 45% remaining in the batts. Planning a 30 mile (50 km!) trip. That's 2x what the FS can do in nice weather.
.26 KWH/mile is his energy use, via a kill-a-watt on one charge cycle. Interesting.
