Tommey Reed's Custom hybrid-Trikes
« on: September 10, 2023, 03:02:10 AM »
Hi All,

I built a few custom trikes in the past, this was the first hybrid trike.

I like to build a new design using solar and compress air for regen braking.

Hi All,

I like to add that this trike was not any kit, I built the frame and steering suspension.

I Ended up adding a 2 stroke engine with a smaller generator to recharge the 48v battery bank that I moved up front to balance the weight and still go 40+mph.

So, basically you have built an hybrid petrol-electric vehicle, or an electric vehicle powered by petrol engine  ;D

Any particular reason for this setup ? Is it more efficient, less pollution ? Or just the joy of building useful things ?
Although displays an simple and elegant design.

adrouk,

let me explain so a child can understand my reason.

So you have a problem that I added a backup gasoline generator, what happens when your electric bike has no more energy and you are 10 miles away from any charging station. Do you plan to push the bike being much heavier then most bicycles?

What is charging your phone? 78% of all electricity is produced by fossil fuels and nuclear, not wind, solar, hydroelectric or other methods.

Hybrids are the best vehicles today, using batteries that needs nuclear, but mostly fossil fuels to charge them. So, hybrids save you the time looking for a charging station.

The Green movement like yourself is a total scam, lying to people who claim they can live without fossil fuels. What heat your house, keeps your lights on, cook hot meals, heat your water, making plastic and other materials we used each day?

 Fossil fuels and nuclear power! If you even stop using fossil fuels for transportation or electrical power, you will need it for most products and even food.

I bet you, like everyone else are using some type of fossil fuels, your car even if it's electric is using fossil fuels, even when you travel beyond a bicycle distance.

adrouk, I like to see your stuff or are you just one of those people who talk with nothing to show?

Tom

Yes and the engine combustion liquid can be based by renewable biofuels(cellulose,fat,algae,...) or renewable e-fuels (CO2 recycle)
or hibrid as cracked hydrocarbon fuel = higher hydrogen2carbon ratio mix !

Often we hear arguments ( from mainstream)which are bad analyzed in their pros and cons !
Appropriate solution for the appropriate case !

That’s fair enough. Don’t get me wrong, I agree hybrids are far better alternative to ice or electric vehicles. And yes, I am well aware of how grid power generation works and why is kept as it is.

If you dare to observe hybrids were being made short lived as they raised the hope for more independence  while we can see from the Moon that electric vehicle as they are now being shoved down the throat on everyone even they are not yet an viable alternative to old fashion vehicles just to keep things under control.

Regarding something to show I have yet to decide if I would prefer a heart attack or aneurism if any early birds are launched, at the right time and soon enough we can enjoy together some great symphony.

And my curiosity was real regarding your trike it wasn’t supposed to be a critic and I apologise if by mistake I’ve let you think it was.

Not really a fear based mission statement…

No really, can you name and show anyone who have disclosed any ou/fe device in the open in last 15 years and is still alive and well ? And perhaps that is just pure coincidence that same things following a certain pattern is happening to all inventors anywhere in the world when they are working in a certain domain of research … it might just be a new type of disease specific related to inventor type of person, isn’t it ?

And is not about fear or fear monger is just precaution and learning from mistakes that others made.

Let me ask you direct, what would you do if one day in the morning you get in possession of a device and full components list and instructions for a strange device that might just perform something unusual that mainstream science deny in theory and existence ? Of course,is just an hypothetical assumption, but I would like to know.

Sorry
I am driving ATM
Your post does sound so “15 years ago”
In a day where the powers that be tell us the clock ticks on Green energy at all costs,
And for clarity ,


Open source is not the “hand a man a stick to beat you with “ Patent office !
I am completely unaware of any “open source” FE casualties !


No more from me here except to add,


I 100% believe these techs would save lives tomorrow
And personally could not place my head on the pillow at night with out sharing that knowledge
With as many as possible
As fast as possible
Dead bodies don’t make a comfortable pillow ( waiting for some magic moment)


I could be one of the 3billion with no access to a clean drink of water ( biggest killer of all)
Or even a light switch ( no electricity)


Fair thee well
No more from me..
I do not share your fear monger beliefs…
