I have contact information for Jim but not for Dennis.
Does anyone have a contact email or telephone number for Dennis ?
Please IM me if you have

I'd think you'd be able to get hold of him via http://www.reapsystems.co.uk/

planning on maybe finaly getting a berlingo as 2nd car this subject quickly comes to the top of the list of stuff i want to build... can anyone point me to where i can get powersupply's?

i have 3phase in my flat so got 3*16A ... want to make full use of it (or close to)

damm... 100A @ 48V: http://www.chargingchargers.com/quick-c ... 8-100.html

the price can sure knock you off the chair as you need 3 of those.... about 3600$$$

or this one.... http://www.powercell.co.uk/shop/shopexd.asp?id=117

140A @ 48V.... still need 3.. about 2850 £££

These look like Lead Acid chargers and will therefore (I think) need additional control circuitry.

i know... one needs to make a control circuitry that turns these add on chargers off when the cars own charger starts to reduce its current

but i was looking for a DIY way to build an add on charger...

even thou its nicd's maybe fit a bms system so bad cells that be discovered before they take more cells with them... maybe even save them before they go bad

is there a fast charger available that doesnt need a 3 phase supply via this site if so please pm me.

cheers
