Yes, the amperage is still only 12a, so well within a good margin for even a 15a circuit. Just be sure the outlets are in good shape, if they are...
Yes! Working on all the particulars to get something actually into production is no easy task! I'll try and get everyone some more info soon....
I do this all the time on the bench. I can't give you specific temperatures, but you are probably ok as long as you keep them below 100F and...
This will set a code! (ask me how I know! =) Because the Prius OEM pack is so small, if you wanted to charge it, simply do as Seilerts...
Blackstone will send you a free kit upon request, that includes everything you need except free postage. Once you get a test done, they send you...
If you do conventional EV mode, the ICE doesn't spin at all, thus the transaxle oil pump doesn't run. However at those low speeds and torques,...
Thanks Patrick! Your experience was definitely a factor in deciding to change this early! I figured there would be some unwanted stuff in there...
Strange. Somehow the first PDF was corrupted. It's fixed now!
It's not difficult if implemented properly, but as you indicate, it's neither cheap nor trivial to implement a proper charging system. The...
Yes, you are right, I screwed up on that and forgot that the Enginer kit connects (properly) downstream of the current sensor. I am confusing...
I recently changed mine for the first time at 21K, here's Blackstone's report: [IMG]
Given that the Prius only has one mechanical lock, it would be far easier to just re-key your other Prii door lock(s) to fit the first one, then...
Well, if you could EASILY and SAFELY charge, it would give you a whopping 600 watt-hours or roughly 2.4 miles of extra capacity. (and that...
[IMG] =) The 2006+ CM boards can go up to 999,999! No this isn't photoshopped, here is a really high-res version if anyone doubts!
I'm not sure what you mean by Talker/Listener. If you mean the CAN bus, then you are mostly right; it sends 4 different can frames periodically...
It may not right away. Depending on several factors, it may coulomb count until a lower voltage which will trip the adjustment routine and you...
200ma is a safe indefinite float charge for the Prius pack, provided it is properly mounted (constrained) and the ambient temperature is cool. I...
The Enginer kit doesn't actually charge the battery to that level. Because the battery ECU will adjust the SOC high if the voltage is high, you...
My tests indicate as long as the car is in Ready, it will protect MG1. YMMV!
It is just that, a small side business. I don't expect anything long-term. It's not a profitable endeavor anyway, I'm mainly doing it to help...
