I let out a major sigh of relief today when the new Iota DC-DC converter showed up today along with the synthetic transmission fluid that ElectroAuto said they would send me. EVParts.com sells it as a DC-DC converter for many of their electric vehicle conversion kits. Here's the Iota DLS-45 12V power supply.

Two things have definitely made the car more fun to drive. I've learned some of the tricks to driving the car. The DC-DC converter is still working fine, so the car is actually quite convenient to drive. I haven't touched my gasoline car in two weeks now. The biggest trick involves starting from a dead stop.

What this really means is that you need to mount the rack EXACTLY 2 1/2" in front of the wall so components on the front of the rack don't hit other parts of the car. In the process of attaching cables to the auxiliary battery, I got a click from the key-switch relay on the right and the DC-DC converter turned on (red light).

One of the annoying behaviors of the motor system in my AC 914 kit is that the default DMOC445 parameters causes the acceleration and braking to have oscillations. So, I took the car out into the neighborhood with the laptop hooked up and started playing around with the EEX???TorqueSlew TorqueSlew parameters listed in the DMOC445.

In the process, the DC-DC converter turned on (indicated by red LED) and then slowly decayed to the off state. The 10 gauge black wire comes from the charger and the smaller yellow wire drives the voltmeter in the cockpit and drives the DC-DC converter. I spent the evening debugging the small sparking issue I ran into yesterday.

The car has been running smoothly with no complaints. If the 12V battery is dead, you need a small 12V battery (9V would probably work) to activate the DC-DC converter relay to bootstrap the 12V charging process. I broke 2000 miles with the 914 EV this week. I'm getting more involved with the OEVA club.

I lost much sleep last night obsessing about how I could fix the DC-DC converter and, as a result, I was very tired and had an irritable day. I find out this morning from Ross Cunniff (who also recently completed the 914 AC kit), that he has had ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEMS with his CCPower DC-DC converter.

The single-car garage doesn't have the space to store the crate and the 914. On minor disappointment is that the cable supplied in the kit is #2 gauge cable. I suppose the AC kit doesn't require as much current as the DC kit, but I'll take all the efficiency I can get at this point. I'm very thankful that today was sunny.
