Separate names with a comma.
My OEM EVSE plug isn't fitting into the charge port due to the O-ring constantly binding up. I've only used it maybe a dozen times when I didn't...
I'm specifically talking about CA HOV and access to it, since that was brought up by someone else. I don't see how HOV and emission standards are...
The words California and rescue is an oxymoron when used together in a sentence. I only trust CA to rescue people from their money and their...
You kidding, it seems that insurance companies will total out a Prius if a headlight breaks. That, without a doubt, is a total insurance write off.
My guess is that the general public has misconceptions about the Prius that turn them off to it. Every person I gave a ride that had not...
Since I've already derailed the thread... for those interested in what I was working on, here is my poor quality video. Although I took good...
I failed to mention I will pair it with a supercapacitor bank that I have already verified is sufficient to start the vehicle alone. Eventually...
Real world the differences are likely marginal for most people. As already mentioned, a steep downhill commute would benefit from having higher...
That makes more sense now. When I see 30 miles range, I assume we are talking EPA range and not Japanese rating. I fully expect the next...
If I were thinking short-term, I would do exactly what Toyota did. However, if the long-term is increasing EV usage to meet ever increasing fuel...
I would use bluetooth, if nothing else, to save on the parasitic drain on the battery. None of the cheap adapters I have found have a working...
The Prius likely already has the best miles per kilowatt efficiency, but it isn't a fair comparison to other EVs. The reason is that the EV mode...
Please stick to the topic of this thread (regen behavior, not engine starting). I'm not interested in guesses as to what causes the engine to come...
I thought the OEM battery was 45 Ah capacity? Regardless, I'll be ordering 20 Ah LiFePO4 batteries soon to play with. I'll then replace the...
The engine does not come on due to HVAC settings when the HVAC is turned off. My particular inquiry is definitely linked to prolonged regen, and...
The more I think about it, the less I believe the MGs are to blame for kicking out of regen mode, but I hope to do a test soon. That brings up my...
I'm ashamed to say I forgot one important temperature to pay attention to; MG2! I have no idea what temperature was reached as I have that gauge...
HVAC wasn't on, and the trigger for the engine coming on was excessive regen, not engine coolant temps. I should have also mentioned I was in EV...
From Mt. Hood, we're talking about 4,000 ft drop and about 10 miles of pure coasting / regen. Perhaps only the first 5 miles or so involves about...
Please limit discussion to the topic of regen behavior. Post discussions of engine coolant temperature and engine-on behavior in another thread....
