I assume that is 220? How long is the battery suppose to last?

Correct 220 fast charge or 110 tricke, will take both in a pinch
batteries are suppose to last 10 years, though it degrades as far as capacity goes over time. Will be interesting to see how she fairs.
Also I found out the batteries are 90% recyclable so it should not cost as much to have them changed out as one would think.

I'm very meticulous in my methods and have my own mill and lathe....so I suspect this will be right up my alley. We shall see. I have high hopes.

I didn't mean you wouldn't be able to do it, just saying that you are really going to enjoy it ALOT

Happy vaping friend, I am sure you will like Genisis, I have heard of only a very few that did not love them once they had one. These are known triggers of Modumust fever as well, gummy can fill you in on this

I just can't wait to see Dan crammed in that car!

Don't forget to take off your cowboy hat first!

I'm looking in to one of the vw diesels myself....or one of the hybrid SUVs. The unfortunate side of my job....must have room for luggage.....kinda knocks me out of the smaller vehicles. My truck now is a Nissan Titan with a 5.6 that will pass anything but a gas station!

Excellent. Thanks a bunch. I should have known you were already on top of the situation.

PS. Typing on my new i7 Dell XPS 8300. Gosh I love new toys.

Well I have already ordered the 4 main components that make up the bottom, so they should be in before the rest of the tops and tanks, so I will probably have them assembled before the rest get here. But if not I will ship the unassembled ones first. Depends on how the parts come in.

Sweet. Can't wait to have that jewel in my hands to play with. This is my first genisis mod. I've been reading about them ever since I came across the "all my mods" thread.

 

[lorderos33]

I'm still gonna need a pop up book.....LOL

Maybe you're on to something there with the book....

A pop-up book Of the build instructions and on the last page of the book a full assembled g-tank pops up at you while a confetti popper goes off and a congrats on your new purchase sign. How AWESOME would that be! LOL

 

[lorderos33]

Yeah. I would imagine the leaf would be a small car. I never met Dan, but in the pics from vapefest he looks to be over 6' tall... could be cramped in there.

Hey Dan,

What if anything will be needed to assemble the base connector? Will it be like the first G-Tank with the "s" wire? Will there be a video if it's different from the "s" wire?

 

[Killjoy1]

He did say he'd be doing a video for assembly ;-)

Yeah. I would imagine the leaf would be a small car. I never met Dan, but in the pics from vapefest he looks to be over 6' tall... could be cramped in there.

I haven't actually seen a Leaf in-person, but I drive a Juke and even though it's pretty small there's actually quite a bit of room in there (I'm just shy of 6' and my gf is just over 6' tall, but we're both comfortable in it). I would assume Nissan put the same kind of attention to interior room on that model, as well

 

[ScroungerLee]

Dan, thanks very much for all this work!

However... Your pictures where you comment on how nice the G-TankUS looks on your Provari cost me $200!

But it will be $200 well spent!

Me too and will probably cost me the same again, I think my wife has taken mine over, going to have to get another one

I laughed when I heard my pops got a FIAT, the same guy who used to drive old mustangs and a ford bronco - he said the same thing - "but it's so roomy inside and gets 392908 MPG... and its fast!"..... i was speechless...

I love thinking about the performance of the VW diesels... unfortunately there is no VW service on Kauai; doesn't seem to stop some, but i'm not inclined that way and gas station diesel is pretty high here. Of course it's not electric which takes the cake environmentally.

You will have to trak your cost per mile. Then see how long it will take to make up for the up front cost of the car. Let us know the finantial reality you find with use. I could never run one in MN, I would burn up the batteries just running the heater.

Did your power company send you a note that those chargers may have caused a house fire and not to use it? That may have been in another state. I know the notice covers two states. Just don't remember which.

Too bad so mutch electricity is produced in coal fired plants making electric cars bigger polluters than most modern gas fired cars... depending on you local power grid.

I would look into Modding the car with a huge coil on the roof to pull electricity from any power lines you drive along or under. If you get a big enough coil you should be able to add a couple more miles via inductance...
