I did the final "bench test" of the components of the prototype system this evening. The 800 watt inverter, which I hadn't tested with the heaters...
Before you disconnect the accessory battery and lose all stored settings, try taking a voltage reading at the accessory battery terminals or...
That could be a failing 12 volt accessory battery. A lot of gremlins, especially those at startup, can be caused by low voltage in that circuit.
Yes, I drive a 2013 Leaf SV. The PIP is leased by my housemate and she usually drives that.
Charging and maintaining two lithium cells like that could be problematic. A lithium pack, with appropriate charger, would indeed be better than...
My housemate drives our PIP for the most part. She is at 68MPG. The average started at 99MPG on the 23 mile drive home from the dealership in...
This commute is ideal for using EV mode on low speed streets and HV on the highway. You can add a little EV range by switching to EV when slowing...
Marine deep discharge batteries are a compromise design: they can withstand deeper discharges than car starting batteries, but not as deep as real...
If you keep the discharges to less than 50% of capacity, and recharge promptly, several years is possible, although a couple of years is more...
There are several factors, but a store brand Chinese or Mexican-made battery can be had for about $75 for a 100AH size, on sale - $100 full...
No, you aren't. Was that what you wanted? Anyway, running the ICE with the car not moving will certainly lower MPG. In this example, which you...
No, running a separate heater in Summer will not boost Summer MPG. It would, however, boost MPG in Winter by eliminating the ICE warmup runtime...
Jaguars are emong the least reliable non-Italian cars - always have been - while most Japanese cars are excellent at cold weather starts. It's...
Michael33's housemate has no interested in posting - something about 'people on the Internet are horrible'. I have no idea why she thinks that!...
There are several more posts from the OP. Given the general response to questions like that here, I think they showed remarkable patience before...
The only thing I'm complaining about is the trolling. I followed the Prius forum when she had a Prius, now I'm doing it here so I know enough...
Before I filter you, I'll note, once again, that it isn't my car, it's my housemate's car. She loves it. I drive a Leaf, which I like a lot. I'm...
I don't want to drive in ICE mode when unnecessary. What's so hard to understand about that...?
The heaters arrived today, the day after I ordered them, so I did some preliminary testing of components. After testing each heater in an outlet...
Unless your electricity comes from the hydro plant 3/4 of a mile away, like ours. Again, keep in mind that not everyone has "cost" as their #1...
