@rjparker got it right. That little disconnect switch is the #1 culprit
No reason to spread FUD. We've been over this. A $1600 OEM pack basically doesn't exist. It's a unicorn. You can find mentions online. There are...
Right now, I have them in stock. We got 2 shipments at once when customs cleared them both at the same time. Not going to complain about that!
I don't want to debate another company's practices, and admittedly I am not the company who would agree with you. Even before I opened my (many)...
To play devil's advocate... These are a bit unusual times. Not sure where they are located, but I don't have my full stuff in either. When we run...
$9k for a problem vehicle is too much. If he's offering a do-over, I would. If you want to keep the car, you have $1.6k to $3k of expenses to...
Exactly. A used battery is the exact wrong choice for a vehicle that won't have its BMS turned on all the time. A used battery will last longest...
Follow the advice the OP didn't. Read the codes and check for coolant movement.
Yeah I've been contacted by some of them too. And they have ignored my warnings. I won't even sell my NiMH to fit into a Honda IMA system. I have...
It has got my mind going though. You should be able to boot the Prius with a 12v spare battery/jumper to get the inverter online. Then if the HV...

Last time was mid last year where I helped a person charge up their pack with my lab equipment. Its $185 to tell you they need to charge the...
Unfortunately dealer prices. They don't stock the official grid charger. Diagnostic fee plus flying in a special charger and 6+ hours of shop...
In every case I know it was running out of gas and then failure to restart multiple times draining the battery or military leaving the car parked...
Using the Toyota BMS that is geared for NiMH with Lithium of any kind is asking for a fire to burn your car down. It will work just fine 99% of...
Lots of people. From Toyota it is just over $1k. But now you can buy a grid-charger yourself if you're handy for a few hundred dollars. Or if you...
But to be clear, Toyota does sell a completely 100% new pack with new ECUs and everything but the price is a few thousand more than the standard...
I recommend them too... :D
:confused: :confused: :confused: A refurb will last between almost nothing (stories of death days after installation) to a couple years. A new...
Definitely the scary part. Reverse voltage spikes cause tons of damage. Reverse polarity accidents that the TVS's can handle are oh-shit moments,...
