Separate names with a comma.
It will depend on climate, speed and driving style, but I don't think OP posted her location. Here in AZ I routinely get >50mpg on a 10 mile (one...
From what I understand voltage is not hugely meaningful, but gives you some idea of balance. To determine the health of the modules you really...
Assume this is DC kWh? 8300 Wh / 62.88 mi = 132 Wh/mi, that seems excellent!
For anyone who cares, the new AT&T mobile share plans include wireless (wifi or bluetooth) hotspot as part of the package price. We had 2 iphones...
IMHO once the stock pack is gone, you really only need to approximate the stock Prius operation under a few pretty clearly definable conditions,...
Thanks camper, that would be awesome :) I think a lot of the reluctance to work with the "hackers" has to do with the stakes/liability. If your...
Its been said before, but just adding my voice. TCH is a great car, but totally different market. After a couple years of driving my Prius, we...
Have to agree, if you can only charge twice a week a plugin is probably not for you. Regular Prius will be a huge improvement on what you're...
Turtle may have real data, but based on his comments, 6 stop signs + initial acceleration = 7 acceleration events. 2:03 longer for the loop / 7...
Some good info/resources: The original home of the cal-cars open source PriusPlus project. Now mostly historical, but still some good learnings...
Hi John, and welcome to the community! There are ways to do this, but not as simply as you describe. The good news is there is a lot of good...
I don't think its accurate to say that the the Prius controllers tries to cycle the range from 40 to 80%. Not sure you were trying to say that,...
Wish I had that kind of time :) FWIW looking at their approach it should be possible to do the same thing with a small uC board with USB output...
This is a pretty cool hack. Turns a standard kill-a-watt into a wireless power monitor :) Tweet-a-Watt! A safe and simple wireless power monitor
Great data turtle, thanks! As you say, I think that fills in the missing piece of the puzzle.
Interesting also is to compare the UDDS data for the 120kg/5.14 kWh NimH pack to the 60kg LFP pack. CD Wh efficiency is still lower on the Li...
Its certainly not unreasonable to believe that the Li pack does improve HV efficiency. The key does seem to be significantly lower internal...
Just an observation that we are wandering pretty far OT, and cluttering up jdh's excellent thread documenting his effort :)
I don't disagree that driving faster out west is very appealing given the vast distances involved. I do think its worth asking why we think we're...
FWIW I agree the revenue projection was used too much to help sell it, but I'm not convinced that was the actual purpose though. Its also worth...
