Interesting article regarding the potential for hybrid Class 8.

I am new to the world of Wanderlodge and RVs in general. We just purchased a
1983 FC
35.

Our Bird is equipped with the four position magnetic transmission retarder. A
couple days
ago I was wondering if there would be a way to refit it an direct some to that
energy to a
battery bank. I am no engineer. I wonder if anybody else looked into this?
