The Best Equipment for Your Converted-to-EV Classic or Modified Modern E-Ride

 The retrofit and EV modification scenes are thriving with talented innovators introducing cutting-edge products and technical solutions. Here are our top 10 most practical or revolutionary components for your conversion project or modified EV.

AEM Combined Charging Unit

The AEM Combined Charging Unit (CCU) conveniently combines an onboard charger and a DC-DC converter. The OBC charges the traction battery by taking 120v or 240v AC from the grid and converting it to a high-voltage DC to charge the battery pack. The DC-DC converter takes the high voltage from the battery pack and converts it to low voltage to maintain the charge in the vehicle’s 12v battery—like an alternator would in an ICE vehicle. The AEM CCU is compact and lightweight, topping 12.2 pounds and measuring 10.8 x 7.9 x 2.7 inches. The AEM CCU is 100% driven via CAN by the VCU and drastically simplifies the EV drive system.

Fellten APSCC

This active pre-charge intelligent contactor controller manages high voltage contactors, integrating a pre-charge resistor to charge up the capacitance in traction inverters to energize the HV system safely. Compatible with up to 800v systems, it aims at recharging over the contactor. Keenly priced, it is ultimately more cost-efficient and compact than purchasing the individual parts it replaces.

Designed, engineered, and produced in-house, Fellten’s battery box smartly integrates 55 kWh worth of ethical cobalt-free Li-ion cells rated to over 2,000 cycles in the most compact package ever. The nominal operating voltage of 350v and max current output at 800 amps were not impressive enough. The FL10-UBP55E also shines thanks to its integrated BMS, thermal management system, fuse safety disconnects, and high-voltage output with three auxiliaries. Furthermore, it offers CCS 1 or 2 with a 200 amp/70 kW charge port. Last but certainly not least, it sports a superb carbon fiber top covering the IP67 housing. Topping at 320 kg (705 pounds), it comes with universal fittings, ready to be installed on most classic trucks, Jeeps, Land Rovers, Broncos, muscle cars, and hot rods.
