The ride…

Matthias and I modded a 1996 A-frame 48V Club car DS.

It’s Al Alloy frame makes it a Great base for a buggy.

We Est the entire system is below 500 Lbs / 230 Kg at the moment!

As It’s on an 80 Lb LiFePO4 100AH (~5KWH) Pack.

This beast can be charged in under 2H with a 5KW charger

or the option to use a fresh pack as its on PowerPole plugs!


A few wing nuts and easy In-Sim Pack access!

The end goal is to do a BUNCH of tests to mix and match Packs and vehicles



The Suits...


PICS TO COME !!!!!!!!!!






The end goal is to get In-Situ “analog” data on the wear and tear of “analog” suits.


Use this to min/max the last few Pct out of the design.


Back in 2022 Peter made a working EVA suit with a scrubber and chiller ect
A few more scrubbing suits were made and a new backpack.

On Crew 339 Matthias tested the new analog suit pack as an Alpha test.
The results were so good that 5 months was spent making a whole new product category.
These Analog suits are just that .
They feel and behave much like a real suit would but with only charged battery

as the consumable
