| July 12th: Still deciding on what batteries to choose. First ones where not "strong" enough to hold the AMP draw at 48 volts to produce adequate power. May 5th 2010: Drove 6 miles with my new batteries. Acceleration and speed is very good but I need more power to climb slopes. I will see what I can do with better batteries. | |||||||
