Thanks mate.Another excellent video Ali. It made my lunchtime fly by.
It takes a lot of time and effort to edit out my most boring bits.

He's one of my favourite channels, I don't even skip his ads as they are entertaining too.I'll watch later Ali.
I must admit that I've been watching Aging Wheels EV conversion too. He's so funny, it's an excellent watch, even if the content isn't particularly relevant to me.
Funny I replayed the presume joke too, it was hilarious and very clever. I'd love to be as funny as him, he's very entertaining, and has a proper EV too.He's one of my favourite channels, I don't even skip his ads as they are entertaining too.
I must admit I laughed out loud at the presume joke and had to watch it again to confirm what I heard.
I wouldn't ever attempt to be as funny as him.
TBH it never occurred to me but I wouldn't want to have a battery box hanging down so low. It's surprising how much space is required above each module. I could have put two smaller cells in the fuel tank box in it's original shape but I didn't need the hassle of having to remove the sub frame to install it.I like that Ali. A quick question if I may. Was there not enough room to add lowered sections on each side of the propshaft, so two additional batteries could be put below the outer batteries?
I will probably plumb the FBH back to an area where I can connect it later if the electric heater becomes an issue. I don't want to use it initially as it is noisy, smelly and kinda goes against the plan for this car. If I plumb it in now the extra pipework and the FBH heat exchanger would cause some degree of losses.Reference the heater. You can plumb the original FBH and the electric heater in the same loop Ali. This will give you the option to use either with little messing about. Heating either unit when off will cause minimal energy loss of the other. I suspect you'll be better off running the FBH as a primary heater energy source, especially if you use kero for the FBH, compared to running using mains electricity to charge the battery. It also won't reduce range, which is the main downside of an EV in winter. If you're exclusively using solar to charge, then obviously the electric heater is going to be cheaper and greener, but the trade off is range reduction.
