Along with providing high power discharge capabilities, the P40 can also be recharged from a 0% state of charge (SOC) to 90% SOC in less than an hour. The P40-24 offers numerous advantages over lead-acid battery powered UPS systems, such as a smaller footprint, longer life and higher operating temperature capabilities, the company says.

The excess energy required for restarting the engine is stored in this unit, which is recharged by the vehicle’s battery. The ultracapacitors provide all the power for the engine cranking event; this also takes that load off the 12V battery, potentially reducing the requirements for a higher-cost lead-acid battery in a start-stop application.

The basic function of the EVSE is to provide redundant safety features to protect the user from electrical hazards while connecting and disconnecting the plug to the vehicle. The less obvious—simply because they are usually hidden from view—are bus bar and high-current cable connections (fixed).

Jerry gave a comprehensive overview of the conversion technology used in the Spirit of DC, including the lead-acid battery pack module installation from Plug-In Supply in Santa Rosa, California. The extra lead-acid battery pack can be recharged externally at night from the Prius owner’s household 110 VAC source in a home garage.

For reference, a typical lead acid battery can survive 500-800 cycles while 2,800 cycles is almost 8 years of use assuming one cycle a day. They are usually delivery vehicles working within a neighborhood, and are on the road for 6-8 hour a day and are recharged overnight. The USCAR/DOE long term goal is 5,000 cycles.

at least, the recycling infrastructure for the well-established lead-acid batteries is robust. lead-acid batteries have a far better recycling rate than even aluminum bottles — over 90% of lead-acid batteries are recycled. None of the new electric cars are planning to use old-tech lead acid batteries.

The battery can be recharged by plugging the car into any electrical socket and allows the Prius to run entirely on electricity for speeds up to 34 miles per hour. They claimed the vehicles weren’t popular with most consumers because the car’s battery had a limited range of 60 to 100 miles before having to be recharged.

Lithium, nickel metal hydrides and even advanced lead acid products are now capable of great energy storage and have strong recycle lives. And fast charging, which will make recharging your vehicle a part of your 15-minute coffee break at Starbucks or weekly grocery run, is the key to customer acceptance of electric vehicles.

The four-door sedan will deliver 40 miles on a charge; a small gasoline engine will recharge the battery as it approaches depletion, extending its range by as much as 200 miles. The fact that no journalists do their research to bring up all those connections is sad, sad. The car is expected to cost around $40,000. Call it the EV2?
