EFOY fuel cell electric scooter

The 65 Watt fuel cell needs about 67 hours to make from 5 litre methanol 4,5 kWh electric power. Are 4,5 kWh enough for 110 or for 500 km?

Light at day

The policy light at day needs alone 50 Watt for the light, measured at the 48 V side at my E-Max S. So the fuel cell can contribute at switched on light only 15 Watt for the propulsion.

1,6 km/h charge speed

Charge speed means how much range can be recharged per hour charge time. Based on 4 kWh/100km consumption obtain the 2 400 Watt chargers from my E-Max S 20 km per hour. The 65 Watt fuel cell only 1.625 km.

So nothing for the commuter without plug at the work place, because after 8 hours are only 13km range recharged.

Range

The 4,5 kWh from 5 litre methanol are listed in the technical data from EFOY. But how shoule an electric scooter go 500 km with 4,5 kWh? Even with the 2 kWh from the batteries added, that, I can not imagine to drive 500 km with 6,5 kWh.

Methanol fuel cell
	Many people believe in the fuel cell like in a magic potion against everything. But when looking more carefully, very few remains from the magic potion.

Solar mobility association
	Compared to 2006 and 2007, the booth of the BSM has gained much size. This increase shows how necessary the change away from fossil mobility has become in the last year.

Vectrix now available in Berlin Germany
	Since Autumn 2007, it's possiible to purchase the Vectrix maxi scooter also in Berlin, Germany. Here the booth on the Hannover industrial fair 2008

	Left the already short tested Innosooter 2500 with Lithium battery, right a new model permitted for more than 45 km/h top speed.

	What makes a 65 Watt fuel cell in an electric scooter? My calculations and the technical brochure about the product are here very different.

Volkswagen Sun Fuel
	Even when Sun Fuel has a higher area efficiency than the bio fuels of the 1.generation, the problem of inexecutable area demand remains.
