Greetings from Argentina

Hello everybody.

I'm working in a VW Bug '58 electric conversion. This is also my graduation project at mechanical engineering university.

I would like to make my own Open Revolt controller for it!

I'll let you know how it turns out

Where in Argentina are you? And what was your motivation to choose precisely a Beetle for the EV conversion?

Welcome!

With the latest improvements in batteries, it's getting easier and easier to build a conversion EV with significant range.

Tell us more about your project? NOTE: that particular thread probably belongs in "Fossil Fuel Free."
