HaloIPT’s Wireless Electric Car Chargers


Recharging an electric car in motion using wireless EV chargers seemed more like a SF movie to me.

But reading more carefully, I have found that the IPT (the Inductive Power Transfer) was already launched on the market.

This system consist of: a wireless charging pad that look like an ordinary mat and a receiver pad that must be fitted inside your EV.

So, every time you’ll park your car over those wireless charging pads, they will recharge it (the system is based on the principle of inductive charging).

Researchers have planned to install many of these wireless pads on roads, in order to allow people to recharge their electric vehicles while driving.

Instead of gasoline - bioaccumulative

The United States consumes daily vehicles over 7 million barrels of gasoline - a figure that explains perfectly why we need to find a solution as soon as organic for reducing science experiments fuel.
Scientists first powered engines and electric cars water, but could be a viable solution and so-called lithium-air battery.Called top invention of many metal-based batteries is extremely safe and environmentally sound.
Studies, yet in its infancy, already show that the battery is able to store nearly as much energy as a gasoline tank, so basically there are all prerequisites for a new enviromentally friendly vehicle.

Mathematical formula for perfect side parking

Those who hold a driving license I know what side and what a car can be difficult when space is limited.
Britain's Vauxhall Motors hired him as a professor of mathematical formula to find the minimum distance between cars in a car that can park sideways.

We invite you so admire below and decide if it worthwhile save.


r - radius of circle
L - wheelbase
k - distance between front axle and the front of the machine
w - width of the car park behind which

The formula gives the minimum length required parking space, in addition to the length of the private car.
The only known remains behind which the width of the vehicle park, but a roulette can easily stay in glove compartment.

In practice, no one standing to measure a car, make a very quick calculation and then decide if there is parking in that area.
Yet no one prevents you from doing some indicative calculations.

Cool Rider


At $ 1250, New Rider's not exactly cheap, but let's be less serious (as far as we can), the motorized wheel that can be used in a pair of rolls or platorma included, is just great.

Cool Rider is an electric motor whose battery charging outlet quickly to ensure a common and autonomy of about an hour away by speed of 20 km / h.

Now, with congestion Maine towns, just would be nice also a shift in the office ...

Air Board


We do not know how others are, but frankly we have not thought so far to it.
Air Board is a miniature hovercraft, capable of running on concrete, grass or mud, with a maximum speed of 25 km / h.
Two handles control the throttle and brake, direction being changed by simply bending the body. Unfortunately, the Air Board can not walk on water or sand.
And unfortunately, the price is $ 14,000, but the invention of the law that's surprising ...

The Hummer that consumes 2.5 liters per 100 km, Chevy Volt

The Chevy Volt think healthy (organic).

Americans have found a solution to not give the Hummer because of high fuel consumption. Thus in the enclosed pictures you can see the Hummer H3, which consumes approximately 2.5 liters per cent kilometers.

The car is still in prototype stage, propulsion being developed by Raser Technologies Hummer in partnership with General Motors.





How can a car so large to consume so little?

The machine uses an electric motor whose batteries are charged by an internal combustion engine, propulsion is similar to that of the Chevrolet volt.

Internal combustion engine is used exclusively to load batteries and the propulsion of the vehicle.

The electric propulsion develop approximately 200 kW and are transmitted as the front wheels and the rear.
Bin speed manual is in 4 steps.





By charging the batteries outlet ensure autonomy of 40 miles that is 64 km, after the batteries are download engine ii load again providing an autonomy of 400 miles that is 643 km.











Under the hood is a GM Turbo engine with four cylinders, similar to that used in the Pontiac Solstice GXP.
The engine runs a generator that loads three sets of lithium-ion batteries "super-polymer (provided by Electrovaya Canada).
Two of them are mounted on the side of the car and the third is in the back. Batteries store 41 kWh.
The car is in the prototype stage, the company Chevy Volt have already 12000 of commands.
From 2011 the car will be produced in series

100,000 electric cars will go on the streets of London

Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, announced the decision to transform the capital city of electric cars in Europe. He said he wants to bring the 100,000 electric cars on the streets of the capital and to build an infrastructure of 25,000 points of food in the streets, in parking lots or stores. Johnson has said it will pay for one third of the 60 million pounds in London and the budget has caused the government to finance the rest and to promote enthusiasm on electric cars. Gordon Brown has announced that it will take account of this request to the following discussion on the budget. "It ended when just talk about electric cars - must act to actually make the electric cars to become a simple option for London", supported Johnson. "I am willing to spend millions to build the infrastructure necessary for you in just a few years, these vehicles will become widely accessible." Among the proposals include changing the plan and London, ensuring that all new buildings to install power points and at least one in five parking spaces for us to be equipped with power options. He wants, too, to replace at least 1000 vehicles from the fleet of the London car cars electric by 2015. "It is a package of unprecedented measures to make London the capital of electronic machines in Europe," he told Johnson. "Following these steps, we will not only create environmental jobs, but will ease the way for the options of less polluting transport that will improve air quality, reduce noise pollution and will contribute enormously to the achievement levels set by me to reduce carbon emissions. It is time for government money to go where and to support my plan to make electric cars the most efficient option for London. " In January, Secretary of State for Transport, Geoff Hoon, said that the government wants to use 250 million pounds to boost the market for electric cars in Britain. Johnson said he will attract support as a part of this large amount for London, the largest market for cars in England. In February, Johnson said that wants to take a consistent part "of these funds. Executive Director of the "Friends of the Earth, Andy Atkins, is of the opinion that the Mayor of London's vision is admirable, even if you lose sight of one thing:" Electric cars are as green as the energy they use and the elergia renewable sources is not supported in the UK. Government should support the renewable energy to ensure that these machines, like our homes, use energy "green" clean and efficient. Boris Johnson must invest in public transport, bicycles and in electrical machines. Only this approach will help reduce emissions in London by 60% by 2025 and to make London the EU pollution limits.

Buy an electric car end you have a discount by 5500 euro


The UK Government proposed the introduction in 2011, a state aid of up to 5,000 pounds (about 5500 euros) for the purchase of electric vehicles, announced the press London. The initiative, presented today, is part of a plan for five years (with a budget of about 230 million pounds), which aims to reduce the level of pollutants that are responsible automotive sector. To receive discount, the customer will not be forced to give up an older car, as the "piece".

Target program registration number is 50,000 electric cars, which will be powered by connecting to the outlet. A national network points to recharge the batteries to be created by 2011. Also by then, it is hoped, cars 100% (or 100%) power will become as common as those whose engines operate on hydrocarbons.
