What Are The Benefits Of Using The Convert2EV System?
Converting my car to electric has allowed me to save money on gas costs, which could become very expensive in the near future according to experts’ opinions. I also do not have to worry about stopping at gas stations frequently now.
What Building Skills Are Required
While you don’t need to possess the experience and instincts of a seasoned auto mechanic it would be helpful if you are somewhat comfortable with simple home and auto maintenance projects.
I believe that the authors’ success in electric car conversions have more to do with their ability in building a network of fascinated advisors than with their mechanical skills. Be prepared to solicit advice from friendly mechanics, battery sales people and electric motor experts. Also, the cost to build an electric car the Convert2ev way is so inexpensive that you can actually hire some experts, like welders for example, and still come out in the black.
What Tools Will You Need
Most of the tools required by Convert2EV to convert a gas powered car into an electric one are common to a typical handy homeowner’s workbench: wrenches, socket set, screw drivers, hammer, electric drill etc.
Some of the tools needed are less common but easily available to buy or rent: jigsaw, welder, portable hoist and a small grinder.
Conclusion
It is a good introductory book for anyone who is looking for ways to cut their gasoline expenses. It is understood that most people would not have the skill nor the time to convert an electric car themselves.
Then again we should not be ignorant. If we were to send our car to be retrofitted into an EV in a professional workshop, at least we have some basic knowledge on electric cars. This is to safeguard us from being charged for unnecessary parts and work done.
