Pretty slick. No question that the efficiency of recapturing and storing energy normally lost in braking will be better than using electric motor-generators and batteries. The remaining question is h

Neil -- I agree. The high pressure is a problem. Probably not a good DIY project. An awful lot of oil can leak through a hole you can't even see when it's got 5000 psi behind it. Such problems don't
