Today we showed the 99% completed EV to the owner to much approval.  We still have a few more odds and ends to take care of, but another week and we will be able to present the owner the keys to a completed 1967 Triumph Spitfire Electric Vehicle Conversion.

We added some ferrite rings to reduce the noise in the PakTraker Battery Monitoring System.

Tonight we completed a Top Speed test on the highway.  The EV shifts nicely from second to third to fourth gear to propel the car up to 75 MPH with some power left to boot!
