Meanwhile the Poor MG Sits ...


 Before the Porsche diversion, I had actually been making pretty good progress on the MG TD.

I had settled on another Better Place pack, twelve years old but unused, still in its "carsophagas"


Unpacking revealed the ninety six cells of electron storage with all the included bus bars and superstructure. Note the old blue GBS cells stacked against the wall.





Obviously this monolith won't fit, so reconfiguration is in order.


One long pack behind the seats
Twin banks for the front
















I was so pleased with the Thunderstruck transformation in the Porsche that I duplicated that setup for the MG. So here you see the TMS2500 charger in the front bay with the forward batteries installed and the Meanwell DC/DC alongside.


Meanwhile, another opportunity interrupts ...
