These are PbA (lead acid) vehicles. Not NiMH. Each had originally been delivered with Delco batteries, and then later updated to Panasonic EC-EV1260 VRLA PbA batteries between 1999-2000. The Panasonic PbA batteries have since been exhausted, or died from underlying vehicle pro...

I don't know of any tricks. As I said, "The setting means 'don't start charging if I insert the paddle during this period, but do start charging once this period ends, and do start charging immediately if I insert the paddle outside this period.'" It's all about delaying the s...

Tom, Thanks for the reply. My serial number starts with SM4700. My problem is that it comes on correctly at 3:00 am, charges the vehicle, and stops, at about 5-6 am. Then, about 4 hours later (at 10:00 am for instance), it comes on again to "top off" the batteries, essentially...

Hi S10 EVers, I know that there a lot of factors more important to range than the power used by the brake lights and turn signals, but under the banner of "every little bit helps", I thought I'd swap the incandescent lights on the S10 for LEDs. The first LEDs that I bought had...

I started wondering if it was possible to hook up two smaller 12V batteries, or maybe two smaller 6V batteries to get 12V, and have the S10EV recognize it as a single battery. Also, would this affect the recharging proceedure? It seems that it should be OK, but also it seems t...
