    Bro we told you like at least 3 different ways to fix your problem, lets review.
    1. Get a bigger better battery. (not very expensive, more run time)
    2. Smart charger and several batteries. (not very expensive and, infinite run time)
    3. Make it run on fuel (expensive and time consuming to make conversion, lots of power, keeps going till you run out of gas)

    Now the steps.
    1. Quit whining.
    2. Pick a suggestion and research it.
    3. Fricking follow through with your plans.
    4. Post pictures so we can see.

    I can see that this has been a lesson learnt.
    Old Systems retired due to new car
    New system at design/prototype stage on BeagleBoard.

    That "paragraph" doesn't even make sense.

    Even though this interferes with Angst319's attempts to get sympathy, I think some real congratulations are in order for some of the many masterful posters who made this thread possible.

    First of all, Rob Whithey deserves a hand for his repeated attempts to answer the question with good, legit information. In spite of this being an MP3Car forum about putting computers in cars, he patiently attempted to help this misguided youth (who will probably grow up to be a surgeon, folks, who operates on one of us when we're senior citizens, so update that will). JC-S60 offered much the same quality of advice, as did 2k1toaster. Bravo, sirs!

    Bugbyte & H3rc, well done with the flux capacitor references!

    DJtaz, you were the conscience of the thread before anyone else, which was good. Even though the OP's posts eventually turned your opinion, you cared, and that reflects well on the community. The air-powered suggestions: top notch.

    2L_SS, kudos for bringing hamsters into the conversation. No alternate energy discussion is complete without them.

    If I'm forgetting anyone, please accept my apologies, and maybe we can call out the various posters we enjoyed most on this thread. It's been a team effort, and hopefully the jaded, bitter young person who emerges from Ausi's shell will grow into jaded, bitter old person like all of us.

    Take a bow, folks!

    I think even terrorists can spell sympathy, not to mention have enough knowledge of science to make bombs, so I would say that there is not a good chance of you getting that job. Besides if you were a terrorist then I would be obligated to apprehend you or kill you.
