Welcome to Greenflight EV, a source of information on all of my electric vehicle-related projects!
My name is Andrew. I'm 18 years old, and I've been working on electric cars for about three years now. I've successfully converted two cars, a Toyota Tercel and a Mazda pickup, and I've been very satisfied with them. All kinds of info on these and other projects is buried deep within the pages of this blog, so take a look around!

And the verdict is...
Success! I rolled into the driveway with juice to spare, and I even stopped at Starbucks on the way. According to my trip odometer, my truck has seen almost exactly 70 miles today, almost all of it in 55 mph zones. No trouble there... Talk about a money saver!
Later folks... This is a very pleased EV driver, signing off.
Howdy Andrew. "Invisible 12" here. First closed-loop test won't run until Monday...brazing of tubes did not meet pressure test safety factor (which, by the way, is 10). It was VERY tough to make the decision to put it off, but the LAST thing we need around here is a safety issue taking attention away from the REAL task at hand.
We'll be working this weekend, as you can imagine.
Greenflight EV has been self-funded, but a lifeguard's salary only goes so far, especially with college rapidly approaching. If you think the cause is worthy, help keep it going and make a donation!
