Gizmo range.
The gizmo with the thick tires weighs 340 lbs. The batteries weigh 520 lbs.
With a 180 lb. driver that is 50/50 batteries/Vehicle driver weight.
Vehicles with this kind of ratio(Red Beastie/FiatX19) are capable of well
over100 miles on a charge. Is the Gizmos gear ratio a problem for it to
attain higher range. If it were geared to only go 25mph would its range
improve as well as hill climbing? Why do the larger vehicles get better
range. A Parcar/Lynch with eight batteries gets over 100 miles range.
