This socket has been under cover for weeks but it still gets a bit of moisture in it. My reckoning is the heat cycling sucks in moist air as it cools down every night.
This blog documents the restoration, and conversion, of a 1965 Humber (Singer) Vogue to a fully electric vehicle. The Vogue will be powered by an 11kW(modified), 3 phase industrial AC motor, controlled by an industry standard Variable Speed Drive (VSD) or Inverter. To be able to produce the 400 volts phase to phase the VSD will need about 600 VDC of batteries. A big thanks to the contributors on the AEVA forum: http://forums.aeva.asn.au/forums/

Vogue passes 30,800 km
I have been a bit lax updating the blog lately but the Vogue passed 30,000 km a month or so ago so I got a picture yesterday.

Transmission for consideration in the Vogue (not really)
I which I'd been able to get one of these when I was designing the Vogue drive train.

Temperature and Projected Range for 2016
Here is the full year's graph of the eVogue's projected range vs temperature for 2016.
Summer is December to February here in Australia.
I have logged the temperatures for the drive "To Work" at about 8:30AM, the "From Work" at around 5:30PM and the "Charge" temperature at around 4AM (I start charge at 3AM and it usually stops at 5 or 5:30AM).
The magic number for 80km total range appears to be 15 degrees C.
