Please, no artificial noise requirements for EVs. The quiet is a beautiful thing. The basic noise of tires on the road is enough to easily hear a EV.

Battery Monitors
It has been a long time but EV's are in the news more now than ever. For many, building your own EV is still viable especially compared to the cost of a new Leaf or Volt. I did a quick search for battery monitor systems from http://evalbum.com and here are some numbers, which by the way are not scientific but do offer some insite into what others are using.
- Paktrakr 144
- Curtis Fuel Gauge 74
- Xantrex 30
- Westberg 29
- Evision 25
- TBS E-Xpert Pro 25
- Elite Power 22
- Elithion 19
- Trakr 16
- Mini BMS 9
- Victran 3
