Also something to note around Mighty Car Mods: we are normal guys and are not trained mechanics. We like to make interesting car mods and show you how we’ve gone about it, but we can’t promise that anything we show you will work for your particular car, or that you won’t harm yourself, someone else, your car or your warranty doing it. Please be safe, be responsible and unless you know what you’re doing, do not fool around with very serious machinery just because you’ve seen us make it look so easy. Talk to a qualified mechanic if you are in any doubt.

The problem with those lead battery's is they are starter battery's they are made for short hi amp pulse not longevity, they will degrade very fast. you need a deep cycle battery. or what you did in the end which is a lion battery. i wish there was a MCM on modding a car with decent electrical stuff from scratch i think they would be surprised just how fecking fast it would be.
My car gets me around all 18 holes unless I land one in the sand pit…
If you say burn dinosaurs one more fucking time……….
This is DIY history, worth preserving. Today's electric hotrodders are tearing up drag strips and building wild rides. It's all come about so fast.
Volts dont kill, the combination of volts and amps does. And this has plenty of that so good advice anyway.
Hollow it out and drop a V8 in it.
Here’s the problem, I love EVs and Hybrids. But diagnosing issues are a fucking headache. I bought a used Hybrid, I’m getting ready to get rid of it and buy a regular petrol powered car. I replaced the inverter, it was a fun job, but it once again broke down on me. New petrol cars are already more complex, but EVs have a ton of different components to regen power, control power, and so on. I look forward to owning another EV or hybrid, but a new one with warranty. I’m not afraid of buying new petrol cars because even with a ton of computers you can still diagnose most issues easily. Petrol will still be relevant because of how easily you can diagnose and fix.
So, uh, are you still going to do the proper electric car project?
Very interesting and entertaining. High point for me was the burnout!!
Die dinosaurs die… Oh wait.
