It's been over a month since I've blogged about the Civic and people have started to ask where I've been. Several events have happened with the Oregon Electric Vehicle Association (of which I'm the Chair) and I also went on vacation. I'm still commuting (even with a blown charge detector) and the car has 1500 miles on it.

Federal tax law doesn't let me get a rebate from the feds because the car isn't a fully qualified conversion; however, I applied to the State of Oregon to get the state rebate of $750.
