Hi Phil and crew!
Glad to see you guys taking some initiative in helping electric cars become a viable mode of transportation!
Had an idea I wanted to pass along to you guys to tinker with if you found any merit in it. As long as you are going to be pulling some sort of small trailer behind the car, what would be the feasibility of manually coupling the axel(s) of the trailer to a bank of manual input/electric output transformers and perhaps even coupling those to an additonal bank of step-up transformers? A gear system of some sort would allow for spinning the transformers very fast even with slow axel speeds. Just a thought I wanted to pass along in case you guys felt it was worth exploring.
