thought I'd check in and see what the status is,... I'd like to have my FUV ASAP to run errands, etc.
anyway not too long ago talked to a friend from my university days, and we were discussing the weather andvarious effects of the weather (like having power cut),... I'm in San Diego, where its been pretty dry (so much so we've had NO rain AND about a month ago some winter wild fires in the SoCal area), meanwhile on the east coast its been pretty cold and wet
that got me to thinking, another potential market (or accessory) for a FUV would be to act as a backup power supply
on the east coast w/ various storms my friends house lost power a couple of times over the past several years because summer and winter storms knocked down power lines
and w/ the recent wild fires here in SoCal some people living in the back country had their power cut because utility companies turned off the power to over head utility lines to prevent fires that might be caused by downed electrical lines
so perhaps another way to market the FUV is as a backup "utility" battery that could be used after winter storms knock down utility lines (in the east coast), or used by people in the SoCal area who might want an electric water pump to pull water out of a pool or a hot tub (in cases of a near by wild fire)
figure if musk is marketing his power wall idea,

why not expand the concept of the arcimoto as a "utility" backup (this way people in regions that might not want to drive a FUV during "winter" can justify buying something that could be used in an emergency power outage)

And Mendojen is right, nominal pack voltage is right around 100v.
