Csak nekem tünik furának a "költséghatékony" szó? Miért nem egyszerüen "takarékos" vagy "gazdaságos"? |

Idézet: GoldPeak Batteries Announces the Acquisition of Vectrix
Vectrix has a bright future ahead!
On the 6th of November 2009 GoldPeak Batteries International announced the acquisition of all assets and certain liabilities of Middletown RI based Vectrix Corporation. Before that, Vectrix Corporation filed for bankruptcy under chapter 11, US bankruptcy law (for details please see official press release from GP published Nov, 6th).

The company is currently developing new models of high performance, zero emission scooters and will be introducing them in the near future: By the summer 2010 a new version of the Vx1 including several technical improvements will be introduced to the market. The new Vx1 will have a GoldPeak Li Iron Phosphate Battery. For the existing Vx1 customers, an upgrade kit to the Li battery technology will be offered. Two smaller electric scooters are also under development: one will be a 50cc equivalent and one will be a 150cc equivalent. Both scooters will be powered by a GP Li Iron Phosphate battery. Vectrix will inform all dealers at appropriate time about the technical performance parameters, availability and price structures of the new bikes.

Válaszok pár lenti kérdésre
Gondolom az "offered" (sajnos) itt nem azt jelenti, hogy ingyen kínálják majd a csereakksikat a korábbi VX1-tulajoknak... de jövö nyáron Rendes Kis majd megmondja mennyiért cserélte ki a sajátját |

Csak azt mondom, hogy a képek a jelenlegi Vectrixröl készültek és nem a jövöbeniröl
Szinte bizti h litiumos Vectrix rendszámmal, utcán még nem szaladgál. |

Ha azokra a képekre gondolsz ami a hír felett/alatt vannak, azok régiek és biztos hogy nem egy litiumos Vectrixröl készültek. ...vagy netán láttál már valahol olyat? |
|
htsoft |
|
Na igen... majd kiderül in the future
De egy litium-Vectrix már tényleg "királynö" lenne(/lesz?): minusz jópár kiló, plusz jópár km autonómia, talán a végsebességet is feljebb merik tekerni egy kicsit... mi kell még? Ja igen: legyen olcsó
Plusz engem az is érdekelne, hogy vajon úgy csinálják-e majd, hogy "kompatibilis" legyen, vagyis hogy egy NiMH elemes bringát át lehet-e majd buherálni LiFePo4 elemesre különösebb egyéb hardvercsere nélkül. |

Jaja, én is ennek örülök: végre kijavítják a szinte egyetlen gyengéjét
Na meg persze a "lives again"-t is jó egyre több helyen olvasni |

Én VX-1-et szeretnék, nem VX-1E-t
...de mostanában erre is kacsintgatok: http://www.swenergy.pt/s/product.php?id_product=23 Kinai, de már litium akksikkal, plusz valami visszatápláló fék-szerüség is van már neki, de közel sem olyan jó megoldás, mint a Vectrixé. Lassúbb is kicsit (110km/h van az infónál, de már tudom 1-2 tulajtól hogy kb 90-95 a max amit bír), de sokkal olcsóbb, mint egy új Vectrix. De persze még mindig nem az...
Közeleg a február, amikor a fiam örökli a mostani mocit, addig döntenem kell |

Bocsánat az "offtopikért"
Egy Vectrix-hír:
Idézet: Vectrix Enters Into Asset Purchase Agreement MIDDLETOWN, R.I., Sept. 28 /PRNewswire/ --- Vectrix Corporation (AIM: VRX) (www.vectrix.com), a leader in Personal Electric Vehicles, announced today that it has entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell most of the assets of the Company to New Vectrix LLC ("New Vectrix"), a Delaware limited liability company sponsored by GH Venture Partners LLC. As part of the agreement, Vectrix has filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in Wilmington, Delaware whereby the sale of the assets, including its stock ownership of its European subsidiaries, will be effected pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. The assets will be sold pursuant to a sales and procedures order that is anticipated to be approved by the Bankruptcy Court to either New Vectrix LLC or to another buyer who is determined by the Bankruptcy Court to have offered a higher and better bid for the assets of the Company. During this process, the Company expects to continue normal business operations consistent with its obligations as a chapter 11 debtor-in-possession company under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court. The Company's subsidiary, Vectrix Poland Sp. z.o.o., will continue to produce the Vectrix bike and will provide customers with accessories, spare parts and technical support.
Commenting on the sale, Mike Boyle, CEO of Vectrix, said, "This transaction provides a platform to continue the Vectrix brand and its advanced electric vehicle technology. We want to express our appreciation to our partners and customers for their continued patience and support during this transition."
Terms of Asset Purchase Agreement Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, New Vectrix LLC would purchase substantially all of the Company's assets and assume certain of the Company's liabilities through a supervised sale under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. Providing New Vectrix LLC is the winning bidder they have also agreed to extend warranty coverage on the Vectrix vehicles previously sold to dealers and consumers up to a $2,000,000 cap for claims filed 60 days post-petition. The total purchase price consists of a cash payment of $1,750,000 plus the assumption of up to $3,306,000 in specified liabilities for a total purchase price of up to $5,056,000, but is subject to higher and better bids, approval of the Bankruptcy Court and customary closing conditions. The Company expects to engage in a bidding process with other interested parties. Those interested in submitting bids should contact John D.

Így van, ez a helyes! (Ha jól tudom az ólmos akksik szeretik ha mindig töltve vannak, a NiMH esetében ez azért nem jó mert van nekik ez a "memory-effect"-jük. Emiatt kell a komplett ciklus. 2-3 ilyen teljes lemerítés után elképzelhetö, hogy te is érzel majd javulást a "lefáradt" akksik teljesítményében |

Szoktál csinálni komplett "lemerítés-feltöltés"-t? A legtöbb km-t gurult Vectrixes ismerösöm asszem havonta (vagy kéthetente...?) egyszer megcsinálja és 13 ezer km után még olyanok az akksik mint újkorukban. |

"Londonban nem csak ingyenes az utcai töltés, de az EV-k ingyen parkolhatnak a belvárosban és a "dugóadó" alól is mentesülnek." Ott aztán tényleg rengeteget lehet spórolni egy elektromos járgánnyal (mint pl az Ev'ie.... vagy a Vectrix ). |

Nem tudom ebböl mennyi igaz, vagy mennyire megbízható a forrás... de ha az, akkor ez igazán jó hír:
Idézet: "I do have some information but can not share as the law firm I work at is working for one of our clients and we can not divulge specific information. But I can tell you this when this deal is completed in the next few days the compay will be as strong as the strongest companies out there. Plus the brand will live on and the problems that existed before will be fixed. I was doing research when I found this site for the client and I just do not want them to have to change everyones minds about it being dead or not. They have done extensive planning over the weekend in order to gt things moving. That is all I can say if I am lying may I die. (...) it is not Harley buying Vectrix I promise you that. As for the financial issues the company currently has will not transfer and be a burden to the next company as it can be a brand and assett only purchase. The corporation does not need to live on for Vectrix to survive only the brand with the IP for the inovations need to survive. In other words it is not as dire as most people think it is. The corporation after sale of assetts can file bankruptcy and go away with the brand name and the scooters living on."
