August 30, 2011: Today, I drove the Ford Ranger EV 20 miles. The Ford Ranger Electric Vehicle arrived at Sherwood, Oregon today for the unveiling of 3 charging stations by the Mayor of Sherwood, Keith Mays.
After a work commute, I returned home with a state of Charg of 148.3V ~ 55% State of Charge. Started automated charge of the Full River DC-250 AGMs with our PFC 30 Manzanita Micro Charger at 6:00 PM, at 28 Amps. Charger was completely automated and not manually adjusted during charge. Charger reduced current to zero at 8:40 PM. Total charge time was 2 hour and 40 minutes.
