144V Upgrade!

The Electro-Metro is now 144 volt!

Thanks to Paul, and all of his hard work on the Open Source controller, I am now test-piloting 144 volts!

I still need to figure out battery charging in this configuration, and am taking things slow to test it all out, but this is getting to be a FUN (and Ecofriendly) car!

Now I will have to make YouTube Videos of me doing burn-outs.....
