Are there examples of Avalons that have been converted to plug-ins? In other words, is the Avalon designed to run in an EV only mode as it is? If not, I don't see the point in adding battery capacity. If the EV mode is like the Prius, then you'll be limited to very low power and a top speed of something like 40 MPH.

I thought Enginer went out of business due to poor products?

I'm a big fan of all those brave people on here that take on huge projects and would love to see you go forward on such an endeavor, but I wouldn't do it since the money and effort required wouldn't offset the benefit.

That said, there are plenty of projects I take on that have no payback other than increasing my knowledge of how something works. I intend to test the "virtual alternator delete" idea purely for the experience.
