Ah. Sorry I misunderstood. Yep I agree with you 100% . Reader beware!
Hi cgates, Your math seems about right to me. Personally I'd use 250 wh/mile. Although top speed around town is lower there is more stop...
Step zero is complete - sitting in my driveway is an '05 Prius. I'm just back from driving out to VA, trading in the Focus and driving back in...
I'm replacing the battery ECU not the hybrid ECU. The former is a relatively simple device with just a few message of interest wherea the latter...
GBS cells are rated at 2C continuous. The 100A is the sustained rate at >60mph. Most of my driving will be around town. If the batteries do...
This is a great report - check out the diagram on page 10 (figure 3.4) - it lists all the parts I'm talking about. And figure 3.7 on page 15 is...
Sounds good to me. You're right that the Prius makes a great starting point for a BEV conversion. BTW, I missed the fact that you're in the...
Re: Happy Plug-in Supply Customer Hi Kiettyyyy, Is that 30 kW rating for the Gen 3 or Gen 2? I'd read that the Gen 2 has a 20kW rating? Thanks.

Hi bro! Your secret is safe with me (hint all the gas I save my brother burns...) Oops. Never trust me with a secret. Yeah, it's a bit too...
As far as I understand things the PIS "ECM Controller" by Kiettyyyy is doing something similar but not the same. I think it's a read-only device...
OK, as promised here's my proposed high-level BOM: Car: Gen 2 Prius - I don't actually have one yet. Anyone have an '04 or '05 for < $10K?...

That's a kind offer on the cells but I'm going to use 40Ah large format prismatic cells (our bikes use the 60Ah cells - check out Current Motor -...
Thanks for the offer to be a test pilot. I'll keep that in mind. It's going to be a while before I get to that stage. I will start either a...
p.s. the Eval Kit arrives on Friday... :-)
Hi Lopez, I'm going to use one of these: Atmel Store / Atmel AT32UC3C-EK It's an Eval Kit for an Atmel processor and has 2 CAN ports so can act...
Navy, As I posted in the other thread I'm planning on recreating pEEf's approach. I'm toying with the idea of open sourcing the software. If you...
