McMichael students headed back to Charlotte after the close of the DNC 2012. Upon arrival students found the "electric fox" fully reconstructed by the Phillip O. Berry students and ready to be plugged into the charging station at Discovery Place. The car had been converted to be used with a J1772 plug that is compatible w/ the Discovery Place charging station. Afterwards students enjoyed the sites of Discovery Place and their interactive exhibits. Some of the Discovery Place employees took the students "behind the scenes" to see how the exhibits are created. Next the EV will go under an inspection and then goes back under the knife as more students will be learning about electricity and alternative energies.
