Thanks BB for your feedback. The car I'm looking at is the Toyota hybid Auris (for the european market). I live on a small island and therefore there are no highways however it's pretty congested...

Hello


I'm evaluating on purchasing a hybrid car and need some feedback from you guys. Do you actually in real-life (and not a laboratory test) reduce gasoline consumption?

My concern is that...

Hi

As others already told you, if the controller is integrated into the control system of the generator, then no it can't be done, however I managed to convert my 24v Air-X marine to charge both...

Thanks

Hi All
