RamGen by Zircon Universal

Charge while you drive.

RamGen mounts on any EV, RV, or electric boat and turns the wind you drive through into free electricity — charging your existing battery continuously at highway speed. No second battery. Just plug in and go.

The Technology

How RamGen works

Four steps from highway wind to battery charge. All automatic.

01
Air rams in at speed
Forward motion at 25+ mph drives air through the pod's bellmouth inlet at high velocity. No power needed to start generating.
02
Squirrel-cage rotors spin
The forward-curved blades capture airflow and spin up to 3,500 RPM — directly driving the high-output permanent magnet generators.
03
MPPT converts to DC
A smart MPPT controller rectifies and regulates the output — automatically matching your exact battery voltage, 12V through 72V.
04
Your battery charges
Clean DC feeds directly into your existing battery. Your OEM battery management system handles everything. RamGen is just a charger on wind.
Who It's For

Built for every
electric platform

One product. Universal mount. Works on anything that moves — or sits in the wind.

EV Owners

More range. Less stopping.

Plug into your existing charge port. RamGen starts contributing at 25 mph and delivers up to 2,500W at highway speed — recovering significant range on every long drive.

Turn downtime into uptime.

Every charging stop costs a robotaxi $50–$85 in lost fares. RamGen reduces stops significantly on highway routes. 1,000-vehicle fleet recovers ~$16M per year.

FAQ

Common questions

Will it work with my existing EV battery?
Yes. The MPPT controller auto-detects your battery voltage on first power-up and configures itself. RamGen is compatible with 12V, 24V, 48V, and 72V systems. Your existing BMS handles all battery protection — RamGen just adds charge.
Does it create extra aerodynamic drag?
Minimal. The pod's aerodynamic profile is designed to reduce frontal area impact. At highway speed the power generated significantly outweighs any drag penalty. Net effect is always positive range.
How hard is the install?
Most customers complete it in under 2 hours with basic hand tools. You position the universal bracket on your roof leading edge, slide the pod on, route the single cable to your battery, and connect. No drilling. Full step-by-step guide included.
What happens when my battery is full?
The included dump load protection system automatically diverts excess generator output to the dump load resistor when the battery reaches full charge. No overvoltage. No damage. Everything is handled automatically.
What's the minimum speed for useful output?
RamGen begins generating at around 25 mph. Output increases with speed — useful city top-up at 35–45 mph, and maximum output at 65–75 mph highway speed.
Is it road legal?
RamGen mounts within your vehicle's roofline — no external protrusions beyond roof rack height. It connects to your existing electrical system. It is not a vehicle modification requiring regulatory approval in most jurisdictions. Check your local regulations for certainty.

* Unlimited highway range achieved with RamGen DRIVE SYSTEM (4-unit configuration) at constant 65+ mph cruise speed with aerodynamic vehicle fairing (Cd ≤0.22). System generates up to 5,000W — sufficient to sustain highway cruise power draw under these conditions. Actual range varies with vehicle weight, speed, wind conditions, and aerodynamic profile.
