Lee and Ash,
Yes, if you look back through my posts you will see that I am aware of the Bob Boyce Prius conversion and the Silicon Chip magazine Prius conversions too, and also the reasons why I don't want to go either of those routes. Both conversions are expensive, and neither is a complete solution for me that would eliminate use of gasoline. That's why I would prefer to either use a battery charging solution, or convert to metal hydride Hydrogen storage cylinders - "Smart Tanks," as mentioned in my last post.
Any more ideas?
Thanks, Rick
