Don't just listen to the EVcast -- experience and be a part of it! Join us at 1:00pm Eastern, M-F, in our live video broadcast and chat along with us!
The real benefit to the Zennergy technology is the essentially unlimited complete discharge/charge cycles. You could buy it once and keep swapping the motor controller, energy storage, and motor from one car to the next over your lifetime, replacing only the bearings in the motor every 5 years or 100,000. This would bring the total cost WAY down compared to any technology with consumable batteries that last 5 years for the entire array. Of course, I have been holding my breath for 4 years waiting for Eestor to actually DELIVER 1 EESU.

Remember- patience is a virture, GrahamMc;-)
The Zennergy Drive - It is not just the price- more importantly, it is the weight, the low loss of energy, and the longevity of it- something like a million charge/dischares compared with a few thousand charge/discharges for even the best Li-Ion. the Zennergy web site is at: http://www.zennergy.com/
Gav- keep the faith! I know it is easy to get discouraged about EESTOR, especially when I first came across inforation about them over a couple of years ago and have been looking forward to their product since then. But this is a new, not-acheived-before, design- these things take time. They are certainly not liars- they may be optimistic, or may not be able to bring it from the lab to the production line, but the backgrounds of the people involved certainly do not indicate any sort of scam or dishonesty.
For a parallel to the EESTOR invention, read the story at the following link, about the development of the Blue Laser- an important discovery for optical disks- it is an eerily similar situation: http://archive.sciencewatch.com/jan-feb2000/sw_jan-feb2000_page3.htm
Oh! I got your DVD in the Mail today, Gav, and look forward to viewing it soon!
Alright Paul, I'll hang in there for a few more months mate! Glad you got the DVD too.
"Apparently" Bo and Ryan haven't got theirs yet. Either that or they're pretending not to receive it in order to fish another free DVD outta me. Can't be too careful with those Mass-a-chew-sits-ians.
Gav, I think it is funny in your videos, you get a box from "NH somewhere in America". Well, that NH is New Hampshire which is just next door to us in Massachusetts. But I guess since you don't know where Massachusetts is, or what it is, that probably doesn't help you.
