[ausev] AusEV Digest, Vol 7, Issue 43

[Richard Slatin, MC/MFCT]

Ok, let's say one installs a conventional a/c auto system in an EV, but 
with the electric compressor.  Remember, if you drive in the summer, it 
will be for an hour or two.  How much will an electric a/c system impact 
the range of the vehicle?  20%?  30?  A compressor is a 
compressor---with a big appetite for power.  That's why I'm considering 
the chilled water system, much as a pain restockig it with ice may be.  
Minimal amp draw.
