It's done! 6 agonising months of researching, writing and filming later I have the ebook
Electric Vehicle Conversions Made Easy available for sale!
The website is
www.EVsecrets.com, and if you can get past the salesy intro page it's a very decent, useful read (though I'm biased of course).
The Sales Pitch
Ok, here we go. 'Sales voice'
on.
I've found the EV publications and ebooks available are either scammy, utter tripe that give you a handful of URL links and teach you nothing you didn't already know, or on the other side of the scale there are publications that assume:
1: You're
only buying new parts from EV suppliers,
or,
2: You have a PhD in Electriccarology and love complex formulae & working out stuff like this:
I created my eBook to break down the entire process (with plenty of pictures) into simple, plain English.
There's also eleven tutorial videos that compliment the eBook, allowing you to watch the whole process from your armchair. These videos have the added benefit of showing you exactly how to tackle issues like adjusting the timing of your electric motor and/or changing it's rotational direction.
Potentially complex issues such as building your own adapter plate, or creating your High Pedal Lockout circuit are broken down with pictures, diagrams and plain english explainations.
With the ebook is also added online support, allowing you to harass me with endless questions if for some reason there's an issue that isn't covered in the eBook.
Please check out the website
www.EVsecrets.com for a full run-through of exactly what's covered in each chapter of the eBook.
The cost?
Well, it's a rip off.
Yep. It's almost the same price as a tank of gas. And in my opinion the cost of a tank of gas is a rip off.

There are two packages I've created. The first is $77 USD and it includes the eleven videos, the 140-something page ebook, plus two bonus ebooks "Getting the most out of your EV" and "Fifty Frequently Asked Questions".
The more basic package just includes the ebook and the two bonus publications for $57 USD.
I think it's a detailed, comprehensive publication. But if you don't like it or it doesn't meet your needs let me know and you'll have your money back immediately.
Sales Pitch Complete
One thing that worries me is the word "eBook". I don't know about you guys but that word just screams "SCAM". I'd like your opinions on that. It's not a scam. Apart from the chapter about harvesting your major organs for cash.
I'd really like people's feedback on the website and any questions about the ebook. Be honest! I can take it! I promise I won't cry myself to sleep. Again.
Cheers!

I forgot to mention, the videos star ME! In my seductive, southern (hemisphere) drawl.
