Converted the battery of this car to Winston
LIfepo4, because the original Zebra battery was
broken! (Rubbish) I will explain in a later time.
Later......, well, the internal resistance of this hot battery
is much too
high! Voltage drops way down when you accelerate.
After 20 mile the
battery cooler begins too 'cool' the battery. A lot of

Additional FeaturesConverted the battery of this car to Winston
LIfepo4, because the original Zebra battery was

Later......, well, the internal resistance of this hot battery
is much too
high! Voltage drops way down when you accelerate.
After 20 mile the
battery cooler begins too 'cool' the battery. A lot of
energy lost. Range
was with this 23 kwh battery max 60 mile.., same as my
17 kwh
loifepo4 battery! And, a lot of this battery's brake down
soon. 1 fault and
the battery have to go back to switserland. Costs; 5000�
minimum. In
my case, one of the 240 cells got leak.
When i converted the car i could not get the regenerated
braking to work. I gave up searching why, so
now my brake pads are wearing and my range is a little
less.
But the car is driving the same as the first mile, and
range stays the same. Very happy with this
home/work car!
