Kawasaki's electric motorcycle battery cooling patent
« on: August 08, 2012, 08:34:41 PM »

Visor Down reports that Kawasaki has applied for a patent to duct air through an electric motorcycle to cool its batteries.  If this works, I assume that it would avoid the complexity and expense of liquid cooling.  Here is the story:

There is not really much information here but the comments about Kawasaki as a company willing to use motorcycles to showcase their technology is encouraging.
