Awesome! 746watts per HP!

There is a company I've done a few interesting power projects for, temporary 5000volt DC cabling in a control room with 4 foot thick containment walls and a 4' thick concrete door etc. They make motors for drill rigs and special naval propulsion systems. 650hp electric water cooled motors that are only 30" across and 15" thick. The average size of a full size car tire for example, looks pretty strange with a 3" output shaft.

They made an electric commuter bus for an experiment. One of the engineers was explaining that the first few tries they were breaking axles because of the torque they can get from their DC power supplies and motor setups. Basically they make 12 phase power systems, really high tech.

This is another turning point in history we're witnessing. There are some smart folks out there. :2vrolijk_21:

Very cool.

Tbone, Ilene, Nancy and I saw this bike run in Commerce Ga.
Very cool but very strange, accelerates hard but makes no noise.

Watched a few more Youtube videos and I think  the owner of the bike died doing a burnout.

I don't think I could ever get used to the sound.  It reminds me of the whirring sound of the high performance slot cars of my youth.

Just think how fast you could make something like that go if you eliminated the batteries and just plugged in a 1/4 mile long extra heavy duty extension cord. :o

watched all the videos last night that thing is friggin' awesome!

http://www.killacycle.com/

The owner did not die, broadsided a minivan though and flew over the bars - no helmet and survived to joke about it.

Kind of cool, the bike powers the motors in series and then auto switches to parallel. That is how they blow out the tires on the burn out.

High voltage low current to low voltage high current in a heartbeat!

The video I saw yesterday said Owner of Killcycle dies  in burnout...or something like that.

It is not there now. The video of him doing the burnout for the media is the same video but they don't show him being loaded into the ambulance.

Brian - check the Killacyle website - the owner mentions it not being the brightest thing not wearing the helmet.
There are a lot of neat videos of that thing running down the track on U-Tube

Someone must have used the title to get more people to watch it.

Like I said...I can't find the video I saw anywhere.
