You don’t understand/know how the Prius 12-V BMS works. It is controlled by the voltage and current data history, and it is not designed to fully...
No sulfur, yes, but there could be lithium plating and electrolyte, structure and other issues with prolonged low SOC. I agree that an LFP 12-V...
In very cold winter conditions, the Gen 4/Gen 5 Prius turns off the lead–acid BMS and keeps the voltage at 14.1 V or higher; so, it becomes like...
The LFP battery has its own lithium-ion BMS, which is not compatible with the Prius lead–acid BMS that keeps the charging voltage at 12.89 V most...
No, mainly better fuel economy and longer BEV range due to reduced vehicle height and aero wheel covers. If you want to switch to 17", go with...
Ironically, the Trump-voting red states will suffer from this the most. And why kill a good thing (as in Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act that was...
Unfortunately, it turns out that the attack on green energy and carbon-emission reduction does not end with the “big beautiful bill.” Trump now...
Oh, I was talking about Medicaid, food stamps, etc. with respect to poor per the second link I posted.
It looks like the big beautiful bill is becoming a reality. It will make wind and solar energy installations very difficult. It will end the EV...
It is the mint color!
Ah, you are right! By the “best Prius color ever” (perhaps only second to my Gen 4 PHEV Blue Magnetism), I was thinking of the Silver Pine Mica,...
I thought about, too. Perhaps there isn’t even a sub DC–DC converter and the solar charger only charges/powers the high-voltage battery and the...
I meant your tideland jewel by aquamarine. Blue magnetism is turquoise jewel as my signature says. LOL
Well, the main DC–DC converter voltage varies between 12.86–14.4 V according to the computer that controls it. I am guessing the solar-charger...
After reading Toyota’s comment that the solar charger “supplies the auxiliary battery system when driving,” it sounds like they may have included...
In Gen 3, ity only powered the blower fan using a relay circuit. We need to find the drawings for Gen 4 and Gen 5. For Gen 5, they would be in the...
The Gen 4 PHEV blue magnetism is called spirited aqua metallic in other countries. Sure, a worse color is a small compromise to upgrade to a...
Correct. The solar-charger computer likely turns off the solar charger entirely when the car is plugged in. As I replied to @Trollbait above, you...
You made your first comment without any knowledge, and now, you are doubling down on it. It is simple EE. The main DC–DC converter runs at 14.1 V...
Any pics of the aquamarine-pearl jewel? Why did you sell it?
