I see range extenders being discussed loosly in different threads here on ES.
I'm thinking about experimenting with a small two stroke motor, witch should be able to produce 2-3 kW. Parts would be sourced from the moped crowd. A cylinder, case, crank, exhaust and injection system with a rc motor attatched for power generation should come in at under 4kg. Similarly, we could certainly make it even smaller and have it churn out 1kW - be it at a higher price.
My e-bike is allready illegal, so adding a ICE to mine wouldn't really make much of a difference.
I've yet to see such a hybrid tho. Go discussion, what would you like?
