EAS Supplies lithium batteries for 3D movie cameras
6 GBS lithium battery systems supplied by EAS are now in use powering 3D movie cameras! A customized version of our plug and play lithium upgrade system was created for the application and the clients are now enjoying extended battery life and much less weight than the SLA batteries which were used prior.
EAS completed the 6 custom systems in September 2011 and they are now being used successfully. More details to come....
Recent Plug-in Prius Testimonial
"The system is still all good. Seems to be running just as good as the day it was installed (if not better). My last fill up of $31 of fuel got me over 940km . Most of my commute is highway driving too. Oh, I can drive just over 60km/hr on full electric when driving on a flat or slightly downhill road. Edmonton is fairly flat so it seems to work well out here."

GBS new BMS systems
The GBS kits will soon be shipping with an upgraded BMS system. Please check back for details. The new system will be announced soon.
NEW BMS's on the way
After long last we have found a supplier making a full featured BMS with balancing. E-mail us if you are interested in purchasing or for more info.
This is a similar BMS to the one our Lithium Sonoma conversion. It works great but does not balance the cell voltages. This system does offer cell balancing and is everything you need in a BMS. The list of features is long. More info here!
We are also expecting a new BMS from GBS soon.
Curtis bringing out more powerful AC controllers.
Vancouver mandates plugs in Condos
Great news for those considering an EV in Vancouver!
Vancouver adopts World Leading Residential Building Standards for Plug-in Cars
Vancouver, BC July 10, 2009 The Vancouver Electric Vehicle Association is applauding yesterday’s decision by Vancouver City Council to set a new standard for new multi-family condominium development that’s ready for a plug-in future.
VEVA Past President Don Chandler congratulated Mayor Gregor Robertson and the City’s councilors who voted unanimously on Thursday to approve a requirement for all new multi-family condominium projects to have 20% of parking stalls wired for electric vehicle charging. The proposed by-law amendment had been reduced by City staff to 10% in response to the concerns of developers. City Council also approved a plan to enhance the public charging infrastructure through its Easy Park parking lots.
Within hours of the decision electric vehicle advocates from the United States following the developments in Vancouver were in touch with VEVA to find out more details of the legislation, which may serve as a standard for other North American cities.
“This is a positive, prudent, and forward-thinking choice that clearly demonstrates Vancouver’s leadership” said Chandler. “Rather than facing expensive and disruptive retrofits, new condo buildings will be ready for the electric vehicles that will dominate urban transportation within the next decade. Vancouver has made a significant advance in its quest to be the greenest city, and the electric transportation future is a big part of that.”
“We believe we are the first jurisdiction in the world to mandate electric vehicle charging infrastructure for new residential homes” said John Stonier, VEVA Spokesperson. “Last year the City of Vancouver mandated electric vehicle outlets for all new single family homes. Now a much broader number of citizens will be served, those who live in condominiums in our City.” Stonier continued “All the leading cities: London, Paris, San Francisco, Berlin – have developed robust networks of public charging points, but these have not yet been extended to residential homes where people will most often park their cars. It’s the most convenient and economical place to recharge.”
At the request of Vancouver City staff, VEVA began a dialogue with the City in the fall of 2006, which led to a decision for the Millenium Water Olympic Village to adopt electric vehicle outlets in 3% of all parking stalls for this high profile development.
