You are welcome. I hope you build it and I hope it works, because
even if it doesn't you'll have learned something. I do advise that you
should temper your enthusiasm with a little pessimism and that way
arrive at better understanding of reality. The finest teacher is
experience and the commercial world is the school of hard knocks.
Don't give up, we need inventors, but think carefully about its
commercial viability and whether the hybrid gasoline - electric
car with its known technology would be a better proposition to the
real problem you are attempting to solve with what is essentially
a novelty. If you can make it a LOT cheaper and with lower
maintenance costs then you have a winner, otherwise you'll lose
your shirt and be very disappointed.
