A Serial Hybrid on the cheap! :)

Just a bit of fun really, but an interesting power controller concept.

No regen for the petroleum battery, so sad. ;)

That's a well produced video. I thought the turnbuckle would be an expensive part.

Yep.
I suggested he use the field winding control on the motor and add some batteries or 'roll your own' Supercaps. to get some regen.

He brings out series of videos like where he put ever larger lawnmower engines and superchargers and things in a Honda Insight, with a CVT before the stock box.

His video's are 'nice' and light hearted etc. Good entertainment.
But for him, it's all about the clicks/money.
So if enough people watch and like this series he will probably get around to doing some simple regen and so on. I hope so.
