As some of you know I helped converting a '93 Volvo 850 to electric. We noted down carefully every step of the conversion and compiled it into a guide book.

UPDATE: a pdf download is now available in the openinverter shop also in German
UPDATE2: a printed book is now available as well.

Until August 22nd you can use coupon code "oi-forum" for a 5€ discount.

I see a German copy of the book in the video, but since I see the info page is in English, is it correct to assume an English language version of the book will be available?

(Update) Never mind... I see that there is a link to preorder an English copy here: https://www.amazon.de/Deep-Dive-EV-Conv ... oks&sr=1-7

The real question will be weather or not I can order it in Amazon's US site or if I need to preorder from Germany and have it shipped overseas.

Yes it can be ordered world wide but will be shipped from Germany adding some extra shipping cost.

Any plans for a Kindle ebook version? At least that'd save us the shipping!

Can we get them signed by you? I'd be interested in one in German and one in English.
If not, any alternatives to Amazon for the print versions? The links here don't work unfortunately.

Thanks for testing. Very odd. As soon as the download is part of the order it takes away "Guest Checkout"
Will investigate

UPDATE: apparently download and guest checkout can't be combined

I'm not seeing an option to checkout as a registered user, either. Despite having purchased things before.

This is a must read!

Tried immidiately to get one now after I saw this but getting a PDF-version is hard I see :lol:

I tried to place the order at https://deepdiveevconversion.com/ but after the payment and check out the downloads list is empty. Hopefully I'll get a contact from the sites "get in touch" form.

Ouch, startup issues!
I've fixed the openinverter shop now and purchase is possible there. Let me know if you continue to have issues on the other shop and I'll contact Udo

Amazon Germany postponed the delivery to February 2024 for the German version and the English version is not available at all anymore.

Is the same true for the Deep Dive shop as well? I prefer the printed version over PDFs 😅

Yeah well amazon - a story of its own.
Not sure if Udo handles orders on the deep dive shop himself. Anyway, the books are printed and I'll have some here as well and will put them up on the shop.

Cool! Order placed! 😃 I have been thinking of converting a Volvo 850 for years and your book will be a huge step forward.

Looks like the German version is sold out already 😳
Also the discount seems to get confused when putting two in the basket...

Yes only had 5 of each to begin with, then one sold, one vanished (wtf?) and one taken by tv team.

I assigned the coupon to the printed book as well now, please check if that changes something
