@12x2richter 2 жыл бұрын

DC is a lot safer in that regard than AC, because you pretty much have to be the path of least resistance for it to electrocute you. That can be tough to do in a car situation with a metal battery box, metal frame, and metal body. Still, things can get exciting in other ways. So far, in my years of tinkering with EVs and regular cars and driving them, I've had 3 ICE cars catch fire. The worst I've had from an EV is blowing a 12V 10A fuse on an EV once because I shorted the brake switch trying to get the old manual ebrake working.

@ryandick9649 2 жыл бұрын

For your final seating solution, my own experience is that long-term satisfaction is directly correlated with the maximum height you can create between the vehicle floor and the lowest part of your own seat bottom. The seat rail system you put in will help in this regard, particularly with the angle on your steering wheel. But for a 50s/60s-era auto body with a new seat, I was happiest with minimal headroom and maximal seat lift. Such an arrangement also minimizes the "old man emerging grunt" given off by drivers who have chosen low-slung seats as they exit their cars.

@Makatea 2 жыл бұрын

You could add conformal coating to the Teensy or a combination of a small form-factor Arduino with a CAN-transceiver and house the whole thing in a watertight project box. I wouldn't use a Pi or any other computer with an OS as these functions need to be super-reliable. Same thing for the instrument cluster with the servo/stepper drivers for the instruments. You could do a collab with some electronics channel such as the EEVblog (he also drives electric, but sadly not a Tesla). It might even be a viable commercial project with properly automotive-rated chips as there are lots of Teslafications of classic ICE-vehicles going on, so to have a flexible controller to do this kind of stuff is probably not only on your wishlist.
