This was a good week. Kind of strange, but very good. The good part was that Sebastien Bourgois, the head of EVnetics, travelled at his own expense from St. Petersburg Florida to our location in Cape Girardeau Missouri to address our Soilton1 weeney power problem.

I cannot express my discouragement at this moment and my rage at my own failures here. I cannot find the words or the logic to persuade nor to convince and Im at the point of giving up. http://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/20110319/NEWS/110319406/1350?p=1&tc=pg&tc=ar 1.

Christopher Fischer has been a busy fella. He offered a little help with the web site here at EVTV and I’m guessing wonders what he got himself into. The index is coming along famously. If you go to our archive of past shows page there is a link to this index. This is the most

The James Morrison EVCompnents case is devolving into a legal morass that has gone on for a year now. Forty three customers were bilked outright of their money – checks

We’ve been in contact with a somewhat interesting pair who are on a worldwide tour in an electric car. Hjalte Tin and Nina Rasmussen left Compenhagen on June 25 on a 41,000 mile trek in a Nissan QashQuai converted to electric drive by AFUTURE Electric Vehicles They are driving around the planet on a year

YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS. This from viewer and Speedster Electric builder Eric Kriss: Brain and I are practicing our diction and enunciations so we can sound just like our superheroes, GREEN ENVY and CARBON FOOTPRINT. Jack Rickard http://EVTV.me
