[cowmeat]

Since I installed the brake regen button in Turtle, I can literally go my entire commute without using the brakes! My front pads are at about half, and I may never need to change them no matter how long I own it. I never even plan on checking the shoes in the back since they outlast two or three sets of pads anyway.

When I press the regen button, not only does it slow the car by using the electric assist motor in regenerative mode, but the button also causes the brake lights to turn on, so my slowing doesn't surprise anybody behind me.
