how u do it for revision a batteries ? thx
Can i ask how you insure and mot this? How does it compare weight wise?
Does the kit have any interior components? Gauge changes, heater, etc.?
Great kit. Can AC be designed In? Also DCtoDC can it run a 12V Winch?
I recommend not handling while wearing a watch or ring ;-)
Did you mention what motor controller you are using?
This is bmp, not bms😁
Great work
i mean, this has more than 10 x the capacity of the average house battery, so definitely no worries running a kettle. It'd run a house for days.
Exactly right!
Charge car, drive up hill, vacuum the hill for 24 hours while boiling the kettle non stop.... still have enough juice to get home.
Any V2L is really going to use such a minimal amount of battery pack it's probably negligible.
vehicle to load is amazing. Was that android auto I saw on the dash?
I believe so, but not something that we fitted so I don't know much about it!
Car to car charging is great
But your knees is literally touching the steering wheel and dashboard
Correct. I'm 6 foot 4. Left hand drive Defenders are much smaller for the driver because the gearbox tunnel is offset to the left.
general defender issues, like elbow out of the window
Amazing! Thank you for sharing this video. The Founder of Electric Car Converts Mr. Barnaby Birkbeck is an amazing young man with a strong passion & vision for electric conversions of Classic Range Rovers & Land Rovers & is able to make some money out of it!

How would you integrate air conditioning with a conversion kit ?
Very well presented video in ordinary lay mans language I'm not an ev person but I appreciate your engineering skills.
Hi can get convertion kit for Toyota prado 120 2005 Hybrid
Diff locks On a Series3? Also the Defender was introduced in 1992 with the 200 Tai engine, not 1984. Before 1992 they were simply known by the chassis designations of 90 & 110.
Yes they were Land Rover 90's and Land Rover 110's, but to everyone else, they're Defenders - it was simply a name change.
@@electriccarconvertsthey’re only Defenders to those who don’t know their Land Rovers. 😉
33K but I checked on the web site and its now £72 wow thats inflation.
We don't build this system anymore, the market has moved towards higher range, higher power systems- so we now only offer 55kWh or 110kWh with the 280hp Tesla Model 3 Motor.
Why on earth do you granny charge all your vehicles?😅
We don't have a charger at the workshop, nor need one!
Fantastic. How much can it cost to convert my landrover defender 110 petrol engine. From the tutorial there seem to be no Hi & Low range. I come from hilly side Taita hills in kenya. To finish up the hill at times am forced to use low range in order to finish up hill depending on load i have carried is this ev strong enough to climb up steep hills
Its £60,000 for the conversion kit. There's no hi - lo, but you don't need it due to the amount of torque and power you have from 0rpm anyway. You will have plenty of power to get up the hills, its 280hp.
So you are telling me that it's not practical to charge at home because I will have to wait 2 days for it to charge in which 2 days I won't be able to take a bath because if I switch on the boiler I risk burning up the house and it's not practical to charge at the gas station because I will have to wait for hours and pay more money than what a stock Defender would need and probably not match it's range or fill-up time which is 2 minutes. So your Defender is worse than the stock in every aspect except drag racing which clearly is not what this car is made for. Oh and I guess I lose central locking differential too?
Not really, the point of this video is to prove that if you get a 7kW charger installed at home, EV driving is the future at £7 to do 300 miles. If you can't charge at home, then it's not. Treat your car like your phone, charge it overnight at home. They've all got central LSDs, not locking.
Happy birthday Barnaby!
Thanks!!
Would you make these conversion kits for the Rover P4?
No sorry, it's only Landys we do now! Silent Classics will help you I'm sure.
Does the defender still have diff lock?
No, but it has an LSD in the centre
Can we review one the next time we're in the UK?
Yes more than welcome to
That railway station shows public destination chargers done right.
Not bad is it! Although not a single one being used was quite interesting..
Standard UK plugs, while 13amp rated (c.3kW) they are only rated for 10amps on a continuous basis, hence why properly designed L1 chargers limit current to 10amp (2.4kW) so about 2.2kW after AC/DC conversion losses.
That sounds about right to me.
Is there a rating for electric off road range? It may be a brick but there's little wind resistance at the speeds this is intended for. 400 miles could be days of driving off road and how much could a couple of solar panels supplement the range?
Off road range is better than on road, much lower RPM and as you say no air resistance. I don't think a couple of solar panels will help really - even if you only used 20kWh of pack every day, thats a lot of solar to catch it back up!
Granny chargers aren't any slower just because your battery is bigger. You still add the same miles of range per hour
Correct
this is the first non land rover I've seen in the shop. Do you have a list of vehicles you convert?
This is old! We used to do all classic cars, but now just Land Rovers: Defenders, Series and Range Rover Classic.
This is fascinating
Thank you Jonathan!
cool to let us to know about the bits you can cannot do
Happy birthday Sir. No big deal, your figures are probably not so far from reality but there are non negligeable losses during charge.
That is true, the conversion from AC to DC during the AC charging process is not perfectly efficient.
Incredible build, well done gents.
Merci Jerome!
happy happy birthday!
Thanks!!!
Hope you had a great birthday. Probably best not to recommend granny chargers, too many of those cause house fires. Of course using Octopus’s cheapest rate would take 3+ nights for a 0 to 100% sticking strictly within the 4 or 5 hour cheap rate limit. I’d have thought your customers would have three phase (and probably Solar and battery storage) which is probably the right solution for a 110kWh 110, I assume you can add a 22kW charger if the customer wants it. Merc G-Wagon is the other car with a bigger battery, uses a similar size to the EQS. In Moggy’s Britpart conversion video he mentioned that defender has a 110kWh package, Utd they also have a 165kWh option - that’s presumably the same as the one used on the 130 that went to Sweden
could you tell us more about the "house fires" claim as I've not heard of anything like this. Cheers
Never had a problem with “granny charging “ my ID buzz it only draws 2kw so about the same as a Kettle. Never had a problem with my kettle either. 😂
Looks lovely! Happy (belated) birthday.
Thanks Kevin!!
great job boys!
Much appreciated!
Hey, you're late, it's been a while Jerome released its tour 😜 Thank you anyway, always magic to me.
Very nice shop video as always and thanks for the shout out good Sir!
Thanks for coming down Jerome!
@electriccarconverts how difficult would it be followng a 55 kwh conversion to go to the 110 kWh at a later date. Would provision need to be made during the initial conversion? Also if the donor Land Rover has had a replacement galvanised chassis (Marsland or Richards) could that pose a problem? Thank you....Edit just watched your latest video and you answer the question about adding the second battery at a later date😀
Hi, our systems are upgradable to the 110kWh if you already have the 55kWh system. All the mounts are already there so that it can be added quite easily. The only thing to take note of is that we don't want to do it years and years after your first 55kWh goes in, because the front batteries will degrade a little and then not be in perfect sync with the second battery pack. If it was the case that you wanted to do it a long time down the line, we would replace the modules in your front box too, so in essence a full new battery pack. No probs at all re a replacement chassis, in fact our workshop jig chassis is a Richards.
I like the conversion... Very much. How much of my hard earned money do I have to part in order to convert an old (2003) 110 Defender?
£60,000 of your hard earned pounds!
lovely bit of kit, wish I could afford that! Maybe in the future!
Thanks a lot!!
Nice kit but 46K is a killer, I could buy a low mileage Tesla for that. If I was a huge Defender fan I won't be trashing the original motor either.
Last thing you want
