Reporting in from beautiful Sedona, wow! You have made a lot of progress. I'm offline for the better part of a week and look!! I'm going back through this build again, as I am very impressed with the electric power stuff you are doing.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
I have that swag bandsaw stand and like it, but the cutting depths are pretty shallow as you found. I have an old Craftsman and a DC motor that I plan to convert, when time allows.

but you aint here for shaddy body work and rust repair is you?
since I only replace the blade on this saw once a decade it only took me 9 hours to figure out [again] how to do it, YES IT IS A REVERSE THREAD BOLT, thank you Delta for not putting a sticker on the saw stating that, makes for much more fun |

just spit ballin' the BMW 530e battery placement
|
Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck

so I am sourcing these batteries from a 2018 BMW 530e hybrid vehicle and a Battery Pack consists of six of these Cell Modules (a cell module being a brick the size of a regular car battery, except packing nearly 60 volts each) so the entire pack is roughly 360 volts
I plan on running three of these packs in parallel giving me still only 360 volts but adding up the range, my goal being 100 miles (all needing much testing and experimentation) |

and here is the entire first six pack mocked up, I think it needs to go forward sum towards the bow more but for now I just laid them on the flatest part of the frame [and yes flatest is a word, I just made it a word]

so each one of those Battery Packs (consisting of six Cell Modules) is 9.1 kW and I plan on running at least two of them in the front and one or two more under the cab and or the bed of the truck
general rule based on my experience with a Nissan Leaf for three years says you can expect roughly 3 miles per killer watt so 9.1 times 3 equals a range of 27.3 miles per pack now I get that by dividing my Leaf range of 84 miles by it's 24 kW battery pack which gives me 3.5 mile average per killer watt and because my vehicle may be heavier and less aero dynamic I round that down to 3 miles instead of 3.5, kapish and we can thumb wrestle over this till the cows come home, but I can also tell you that, that Leaf has seen a range of as high at 106 miles on the same battery pack so there's that, it all depends on your driving 'habbits" as they say |

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
Those fit in there pretty nicely. So you're thinking you will have roughly 160 miles of range with those 6 batteries?
