Okay, so you are ready to do your part to reduce fossil fuel usage and you are considering an EV (Electric Vehicle). Several manufactures are marketing EV's, but which one is right for you? Everyone has different driving styles and needs. How far can you go on a 100% EV? How reliable are they? Are there any savings? Some of these questions will be answered below to help you determine if this technology is ready for you.
 

First on my small list may be the Coda electric car available with a 4 seats capacity and powered by a 728 cell cobalt ontario copyright-ion phosphate battery. The vehicle includes a range of 90-120 miles and can achieve a maximum speed of 80 mph. It comes with an interesting warranty: 3 years or 36,000 miles. An interesting fact is the battery which equips this car is covered for 8 years/100,000 miles. If you are interested in buying this electric vehicle you should know that the prices are around $37,000.

Power cords - Again, in my opinion, they are poor quality and might damage your electronics. Duct tape sand paper painter's tape lithium facts and bungee cords are good though.

2) Battery freshness: often overlooked. Always make sure you have the freshest battery possible. A battery can lose it's ability to hold a charge as time goes on. You want batteries that move off of shelves quickly to be sure they aren't old.

Laptop computer uses If you keep the lithium bettery stock battery in your laptop for everyday use and power it from the wall socket unplug the power every few days and let it run off the battery as a battery at capacity lasts longer than one at capacity if you don't travel with it you should remove the laptop battery when on fixed power.

In case you are using new nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) battery, remember you should not charge the battery for too long or it will overcharge it and end up shortening the life of the battery. However, it is important to charge and discharge the battery three times just like the lithium-ion battery to ensure that it has a long a life.

For jobs where the batteries are required to be light weight as well as being reusable, then lithium batteries are ideal. But if a battery is needed to be very reliable or to remain unused for a long time then they might not be the right batteries for it.
