Thanked 60 Times in 45 Posts
Last night I did my first high way run, accidentally. I was going to a Christmas party with my girl friend and I had the GPS running and I was not paying attention and just got on the highway and was on it doing 60 MPH for a good 20 minutes before I realized I was in my EV! I was in 4th gear and I could have definitely hit 70 MPH no problem with my current settings.

It did really well, even at only 360A battery max. That is 2C on my CALBs, but I might bump it up to 3C (540A) for some more acceleration power!

One of these days I am going to do a 0-60MPH test with 3C settings and figure out the real timing.
