You've had the polish out again. It's got to rain now.:( John.
Roy I think Brad was just using the gauge to test at as an experiment what sort of current the module gas excessively to open the safety valve. As...
Roy in truth we do not know the efficiency of the Toyota/Panasonic modules, but everything I have researched gives the maximum level of 70%....
Yes you can charge a block at a time but this has a number of problems. You cannot get individual module capacity information, and the better of...
Nice pictures Brad. As you probably know the big difference between the gen1 and gen 2 modules is that the gen2 has a second set of inter cell...
Congratulations. There will be no looking back now. All the European gen2 come with 16 inch wheels "the same as the US touring". You are going to...
This is normal for a cold start. Most of the propulsion from a cold start is done by MG2 and the battery. This allows the engine to warm up off...
Reverse in the Prius is rather an unusual arrangement. If the ICE starts while you are in reverse it actually reduces the amount of torque to the...
Not quite correct with your statement there. The ICE is connected to the road wheels, and 72% of it's torque takes that rout. The other 28% goes...
I am always concerned about safety, and is why the first thing I did in my test was to check the pressure relief valve, and advocate this as part...
Yes that is the ideal time. once that is done there is no further need to compress the modules even when charging until the holes are sealed...
Interesting results Brad. It does seem the really positive result of all this is that re-hydration works, and works well. Your results from...
It would do no harm to rotate them, but I think with re-hydration it will become unnecessary. My reasoning being that in the past without...
Drill one hole in each module before removing them. This will release any pressure in them from the cycle charging, and prevent possible bloating...
Ideally the modules should be removed to hydrate them. This way only 2 holes need to be drilled in each of the 28 modules making 56 holes to seal....
Brad although the results are very good on the cut open module I feel the charge input in AH is not enough to give full capacity output. An input...
The individual charging of the modules with the "hobby" type chargers gives the ability to show the capacity of each module, and thus the...
The modules have a nominal capacity of 6.5 ah (amp hour) so charging at 2 amps for 2 hours even if the modules were 100% efficient which they are...
Brad. I agree with what you are saying, and is why Roy put a series of question marks in his post. Also why I said "I'm sure there would not be...
In the post it clearly states "Quote" Small holes are drilled above each well. (possible typo perhaps should read cell, but could be referring to...
