Oops, I never saw that message. I don't know if you could do that to a new beetle. Probably!
I did some force tests on the car today at 72v nominal...
18 mph constant speed in 1st gear on flat ground ----> 223 w*hr/mi
35 mph constant speed in 2nd gear on flat ground ----> 250 w*hr/mi
This is with the tires inflated to around 29-30 psi. That's better than I thought it would be!
The 1000amp controller monitors voltage, so I did the following:
batteryAmps = pwmDuty * motorAmps
Force = PackVoltage * batteryAmps / speedOfCar
This thread brings back the good old days. Oprah is ugly. hahaha
