Andrew, yea I was reading up on the malibu/aura... not much more efficiency there. I noticed that GM only uses a 36 volt electric motor, while the electrocharger uses a 48 volt. I don't understand electricity all that well, but would this make a difference in how much energy it would recover?

cfg, i noticed that too, how it seems to be taking forever to come out.

I bet there's someone smarter than me on these forums that could easily rig this up themselves for pretty cheap... Or perhaps they've already done so!
