Troubleshooting Common EV Truck Problems. Maintaining your EV truck properly extends its lifespan and optimizes its performance on the road. Regular care limits downtime due to repairs, and understanding how to troubleshoot common issues ensures you keep moving forward, efficiently. Firstly, always monitor battery health, as it's the core of your electric vehicle. Regular checks on electrical connections and components prevent power loss. Secondly, tyre maintenance is crucial for safety and efficiency; ensure they are correctly inflated and regularly inspected. Lastly, familiarise yourself with your vehicle’s diagnostic system; it's your first line of defence in pre-emptive problem-solving. By proactively addressing these areas, your EV truck remains a reliable part of your fleet, embodying sustainable progress in urban delivery.

Why Your Car Battery Keeps Dying and How Proper Maintenance Can Prevent Failures

🔋 🚗 Choosing the correct battery for your vehicle is crucial to ensure optimal performance and avoid potential issues. Here's what you need to know about using the right type of battery: 1. Compatibility and Performance Issues - Wet-Cell Battery: Traditional wet-cell batteries are not designed to handle the demands of modern start-stop systems. Installing a wet-cell battery in a start-stop vehicle can lead to frequent failures and reduced battery life due to the high cyclic load and energy requirements. - Start-Stop Battery: These batteries, such as AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) and EFB (Enhanced Flooded Battery), are specifically designed to support the frequent starting and stopping of the engine, as well as the additional power needs of modern vehicles. 2. Risks of Incorrect Installation - System Failures: Using a conventional wet-cell battery in a start-stop vehicle can result in the failure of the start-stop system, as well as other vehicle functions that rely on stable and reliable power supply. - Increased Wear and Tear: The continuous partial discharge state (around 70%) and frequent restarts can quickly degrade a wet-cell battery, leading to premature failure and costly replacements. 3. Safety and Efficiency - Safety Concerns: Incorrect battery installation can lead to safety issues, including the risk of battery leakage and potential damage to the vehicle's electrical systems. - Fuel Efficiency: Start-stop batteries help improve fuel efficiency by automatically shutting down the engine when the vehicle is stationary, reducing fuel consumption and emissions. Installing the wrong battery can negate these benefits. #BatteryKnowledge #VehicleMaintenance #StartStopTechnology #AutomotiveSafety #ZapsBatteries #ReliablePower #VehicleEfficiency

ADVANTAGES OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES (in term of Coast ) 1.COST SAVINGS :-    Lower Operating Costs:-Electricity is generally cheaper than gasoline or diesel, leading to significant savings in fuel costs over the life of the vehicle.    (2)REDUCED MAINTENANCE :- EVs have fewer moving parts than ICE vehicles, resulting in lower maintenance costs. There’s no need for oil changes, exhaust system repairs, or transmission maintenance. #ENVIRONMENTAL #Electrical #ENVIRONMENTALTESTING #ELECTRICALTESTING #DVP

So in this freedom of information based report released Dec 2023 on Lithium Battery fires from 2022/23 the statistics are rather telling. The number 1 culprit was e-Bikes but the second highest has been Electric Vehicles. This flies in the face of what the official narrative is saying. The old story of ICE fires being far more prevalent is very deceitful especially because they conveniently ignore the massive disparity between the number of ICE cars on the roads vs EV's. Nor do they take into account the average age of the ICE vehicle or its state of repair. Petrol and Diesel NEVER self combust. There always needs to be an external ignition source and generally this is down to poor electric maintenance. Lithium batteries however go into thermal runaway all by themselves. As the numbers of EV's go up and as they age this will become strikingly obvious. https://lnkd.in/d2ByjQyT
