It runs! New homebrew on the road

[tourtoe]

My ElFocus was "finished" yesterday - enough for a small road test anyway. I just wanted to share my joy - heres more detail

The project stood still for a year or so, but Flecc helped me get back on track by helping with a charging issue (DIY battery pack - thermistor problem) - thanks a lot!

Cheers,
Torben

Nice job Torben, congratulations on a neat addition. Plenty of ground clearance too, often a problem with underslung motors on recumbents.

You really need some nice Summer like weather now to get the best enjoyment out of it.

Thanks Flecc. I'm not to unhappy with the outcome myself

Summer enjoyment is handled by this :

The ElFocus should bring me the joy of cheap, green commuting and exercise in the colder season. I might need to insulate the batterypack, though

Cheers,
Torben
