A factory custom IGBT test box. This unit was on-loan to our collection from the GE folks back in the day. We have never come across another copy.

The IGBT tester in-use.

The GE LXT diagnostic gauge. This gauge reads codes from the controller, called DTCs (diagnostic trouble codes) in the automotive industry, to assist in repairs. Note the connector to the left linking the LXT to the controller.

The lower of the two meters is another version of the GE LXT gauge, shown here dash mounted, allowing the driver to see codes in real time. The upper gauge is a typical vintage Cruising Equipment Company e-meter that tracks voltages, amperages and SOC (state of charge) on the fly during both propulsion and charging.

A stock GE Handset used for programing various EV propulsion and charging parameters into the GE controller.

An original traction battery pack watering filter. Both NiFE and NiCaD batteries utilize distilled water during recharging cycles. This filtration system allows the batteries to be watered via a typical garden hose system.
