  • I was challenged by VW to make electricity to support their electric Supercar at Pike's Peak. The CRUSHED the course record by 15 seconds in the race. I got a little help from William Osman and some kids and without hurting any feelings one was better than the other.

    The battery used to store and deliver the lemon, zipline, and solar power is a Mobi Gen built by FreeWire Technologies.

    Summary: I was challenged to charge VW's electric supercar for the upcoming Pike's Peak race. I first built a lemon battery with William Osman. Then we tried a regenerative zipline. Then we tried solar power with a twist.

      instead of teaching highschool, he could open a "science exploration group".....it was brilliant to let the kids come up with ideas, bash those around until they decided which one would be best, and then make it....there's already a similar group in Grand Rapids Mich: the National Science Institute...

      The question is: How much energy does one way down generate and how much energy is used to get it up again, right?
      Because if it takes less energy to let the zipline pull itself to the start you could just put a weight on it and let it do this over and over generating more and more energy.

      crossing two states by only losing 85% thats a good battery though given that the direct air route is 766 miles (from center to center) and the shortest route by car i botherd to google is 1183 miles.
      So by taking that numbers and checking what the best range of any E-car is we get (around 260) we can do the horrible thing called math(though its only dividing) and see an e-car would need close to 3 full charges (2,946......) if it could travel the air route and 4,55 via normal route.
      Now if we take the battery and say it only needs 0,85 charges to travel those distances we get an maximum range of 901,17 Miles via Air route and a whopping 1309,4 miles on the street route
      that makes it 3.4 times more efficent on air route and 5 time more efficent on street route then a normal e-car not that bad honestly
      though the car will get you there faster and more comfortable
