About me

Industry Automotive
Occupation Electrical Engineer
Location North Carolina, United States
Introduction I work in the class 8 heavy truck industry. We design and verify the embedded systems (computers modules) that run everything these days. We relocated to North Carolina in Mid 2010 and were not allowed to renew our lease of the all electric Mini E. We now own two "Think City EV" cars and sold our gas cars. I am watching the developments in upcoming electric cars but so far I am very disappointed that none of the affordable early offerings even come close to the 12 kW built in charger that the Mini E has.
Interests Scandinavian Folk music and dance, bicycling, biodiesel, Christianity, hard core vegetarian food, cross country skiing.
