Default EVTV contest

Hi everybuddy!

This is Brandon from PA (electric lead-acid SAAB 96, 2 hot electric Miatas on lithium!).

Loving the EV experience. In 2.5 years I've barely driven ICE cars at all.

I wanted to bug you to vote for me in Jack Rickard's EVTV Build-Your-Dream Giveaway. $20k is at stake in lithium and components. There's ten finalists left and it comes down to a popularity contest with internet voting. I led for over a month but now have fallen to second. I am eager to convert a 1971 Austin FX4 London Taxi and share the EV experience with the citizens and visitors to this (historic) area. As you probably know, you kind of have to see it/ride in it to believe it.

If you want to vote you will be prompted for some personal info. Jack has personally assured me that he has nothing to sell and it's just to avoid people hacking the contest results. Having made his fortune during the birth of the internet, he understands way better than me the weaknesses of the web, etc.

Voting ends August 31.

Thanks for reading and your collective contributions to this site. It's a gold mine and I have learned much here.

Cheers,
Brandon

Hello again!

I made a youtube video the other day - introduces my 3 EV builds and asks for votes for the EVTV contest:

Voting link is there and also here:

Thanks for your interest and support. This is starting to get exciting!

Cheers,
Brandon


p.s. reactions to the goofy video would be appreciated - first time I intentionally put myself on video and feeling a bit silly about it.
