Re: Quick Curtis question.



Mixing 12v grounded system and EV pack voltage is a big no-no. It give the

My friend got one of those shocking possibilities on Friday. I think that 
there might be some water or acid on top of one of the batteries which is in 
an alluminum box, which caused him to get a little schok when he touched the 
shunt and the frame. Or so thats what he said happened. I hope that this 
isn't too much of a problem to fix.
