Better Place Australia Video

Posted by admin as Petrol Prices Australia

The Opportunity

Better Place Australia is part of a global company dedicated to zero emissions driving.

We will enable the mass adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) in Australia by providing the infrastructure and services that make it easy, affordable and attractive for motorists to adopt and drive electric vehicles.

We are working with car and battery manufacturers to ensure a complete, efficient and compelling solution built around desirable EVs equipped with a new generation of safe, recyclable and reliable lithium-ion batteries. Our electric charging system, infrastructure and services will effectively replace those currently provided by the $20B retail petroleum industry to support petrol engine cars.

The switch to EVs will allow drivers to experience both the convenience of starting each day with a full tank and the exhilaration of smooth, quiet, and powerful acceleration. Drivers will no longer have to worry about fluctuating petrol prices, or be concerned that they are adversely affecting the air their family breathes or the climate of the planet. They can also enjoy the economic benefits of lower maintenance and longer life cycles of simpler and more reliable motors. The benefits of this transition for Australia will be dramatic: from cleaner air and lower emissions, to a stronger economy with more jobs and a healthier future for the car manufacturing and renewable energy sectors.

Fuel Tank Removal!

Here’s the revised version of the seventh video in my series. The old one was muted due to copyright problems, so I removed it.

Finally got to check this one off of the to-do list, with the help of Lars!

Attempt two.. Double the voltage, double the fun! Check it out!

I found a new guy on the block, it sounds like he’s been converting his Escort for a while but he just posted his first video last week. He is the youngest converter I know. He’s got me beat by two years, he’s 17. I encourage you to check Andrew out and subscribe to his videos.

Wow. Well the day has come when the Daytona left the garage. And it wasn’t from me or anybody pushing it. I hit the switch and it left by itself on 12 volts. Then I took it for a spin around the yard, but the resistance from the snow proved to be a little much for just one battery. If I drive it with any higher voltage, I will probably be hooking up the controller though, because I don’t think it’s good for the contactor to be doing that.
