 I was thinking we need a page for PHEV standards (for any vehicle). In particular, I would like a place where standards are developed among the community of PHEV designers. Presently, I am working on a proposal for standards used in presenting the detailed status of the PHEV conversion on the CAN bus and on a computer interface.
 The data could be:

		+	== Converted PHEV Vehicles Data ==

		+	I need to work out a better way to organize converted vehicle data,
		+	perhaps by using vehicle templates and a formatting template?
		+	So, each vehicle might get it's own template, which could then be categorized by make, model, location, etc...
		+	These vehicle templates might then call on a formatting template to keep the layout uniform.
		+	The vehicle templates might call this formatting template with something like:
		+	<pre><nowiki>
		+	{{PHEVs\|make=Toyota\|model=Prius\|year=2004\|date=Fall 2004
		+	\|name=CalCars [[PriusPlus]] and http://calcars.org
		+	\|converter=[[User:Rgremban]], [[EDrive\|EnergyCS]], and CalCars
		+	\|info=[[PriusPlus History]]
		+	\|image=[[Image:Local Image]]
		+	\|country=US
		+	\|state=CA
		+	\|city=Palo Alto
		+	\|range_deplete=10
		+	\|range_blended=20
		+	\|battery_capacity=3.2kWh
		+	}}
		+	</nowiki></pre>

		+	Then vehicle templates could be included in a full list, or parsed by something like the

	: That sounds like a great idea! Though I'm not sure I'm going to be much help in determining which packet ID's or the structure for such messages. I would be sure to develop them in a manner to maximize their flexibility for future use by many different projects. Plan for system voltages up to 600 volts with the smallest cell values (Ni) at 1.2vpc for about 500, call it 512 individual blocks each potentially reporting their ID, Voltage, Temp, Resistance, Current, etc. We might even consider the possibility of multiple semi-independent systems in the same vehicle each with their own "machine ID" as part of their packets? Perhaps I'm going a little overboard here, just some thoughts. Anyway, feel free to get started on a new section or entirely new page and I'll add it to the main menu once it reaches that point. --[[User:Rjf\|Rjf]] 08:40, 25 January 2007 (CST)		: That sounds like a great idea!

		+	I'll create a page called PHEV Standards, and start with the above mentioned project. If and when this issue becomes too large, we could create a page just for it, and point to it from the Standards page.

		+	By the way, I may be working with the SAE on this, but I'd try to use this wiki for the work.

−	I purchased a 2006 Ford Escape Hybrid that is giving me 38 miles to the gallon and I want to improve the mileage. I have heard that a second battery can be installed along with a home charging system. Engine control modifications would also need to be added to enable the batteries to run down farther before the gas engine kicks in. I am also interested in converting the gas engine to E-85 capability. I am unable to find any information about accomplishing these goals and would appreciate any leads toward finding some help and guidance.
−	: We have a [[Ford Escape Hybrid]] webpage with information about that vehicle. Although [[Hymotion]] has plans to offer PHEV kits for this vehicle that's about all that we can tell you at this point. We do not yet have an [[Escape PHEV]] page though once we get the [[Prius PHEV]] conversion process to a stable and working state it should be relatively easy to transfer the methods we've learned to the other vehicles with similar powertrains. --[[User:Rjf\|Rjf]] 18:53, 10 May 2006 (CDT)
