    Electrified Boost banned in USA

    yea, its weird, the USA forgetting about the main benefit of capitalism, that being competition. If US customers can't import these items from other countries then US companies have no reason to invest in R&D. The bean counters will see to it that the R&D money goes towards short term gains...

    Electrified Boost banned in USA

    Back in the last decade the USA decided that Aluminium bars and pipes and similar products made from solid aluminium in New Zealand were a threat the the national security of the USA. Maybe they thought we were hiding spies in the bars 😆

    S2000 Rotrex + Electric Motor

    Link have a plug and play replacement for the AP1 ECU, they go for around NZD$2800 so in USD that would be $1700ish plus those economy saving tariffs of course 🤣 Link have dealers/resellers in the USA as well. https://dealers.linkecu.com/S2000

    RX8 Renesis Rotary eSC

    Yes, I was thinking the case was steel, but it is aluminum so yea, ali tube. Galvanic Corrosion would be an issue with stainless and ali. You should still have a reservoir though, the water volume will change with he heat, something like a small steering fluid reservoir would do. Join to the...

    RX8 Renesis Rotary eSC

    I have these, I was looking at a way to wrap with a LED light fitting heatsink. But I think all those spiral square cut valleys might be a problem. Then I thought of getting some 75mm stainless exhaust pipe, chuck in a couple of o-rings and some hose fittings. Low pressure water, a...

    RX8 Renesis Rotary eSC

    yea, maybe but it will probably have to be a custom one. What motor are you using? I looked for some a while back, but they are all for smaller motors, 40-ish mm diameters. Then I saw this, and I had one of those silly ideas, buy some copper tube and make a custom jacket. But it would...

    RX8 Renesis Rotary eSC

    I am finding it hard to get proper information. Every thing says T5 is for slow things like printers and other small machines, but I have also seen 60m per second max belt speed which is fast enough I think. Also saw an optibelt PDF that said 23kw in their technical manual, but not specific to a...

    Anyone tried a MY1020 scooter motor instead of RC motors ?

    Hi, i found this earlier and I thought it might interest you, the are T5 pulleys made to bolt to a crank and dive the P2, but they are geared to drive it at crankshaft 7000rpm, which is where your scooter motor rpms are. https://hydemotorworks.com/shop/product/p2-supercharger-t5-cog-pulley/

    RX8 Renesis Rotary eSC

    I logged in today to aske how people were getting on with belts. I saw a reference to the T5 belts not being a good idea above 10,000rpm as well. MY intention is to use two Hobbywing 70125s to drive a common shaft at some were between 1.25x to 2x the motor rpm. and then use a belt from that to...

    Scary battery purchase time

    I am moving at the speed of a geriatric snail. I finally got around to testing the resistance of my LTO batteries. Mostly came in at 0.35 or there abouts milliohms on the yr1035+ test device. Google tells me that is good so I hope google is right. Ol' Google has been getting pretty unreliable...
