Separate names with a comma.
How do you know—you never owned a Gen 4? Gen 4 was more comfortable than Gen 5 in terms of roominess and ride. Some say Gen 5 has a slightly more...
It turns out that Toyota TrueStart is made by Interstate Batteries. Interstate Batteries label hidden under Toyota TrueStart label—TikTok [IMG]
Of course. They don't affect it much, in fact typically not at all. In the Gen 5 new-car features, it is mentioned that if the 12-V-system load is...
Meh, perhaps only in China, but Toyota will never use the much inferior and much less reliable BYD technology outside China. Of course BYD will...
My AGM-battery open-circuit voltage has eventually settled around 12.87 V after rest, which includes about a 2% SOC drop of nightly parasitic...
Congratulations, such a diligent work! Thank you for the very detailed post. You have made a great purchase. A fully loaded solar Prius Prime—a...
Yep, this is exactly what I have been observing in my Gen 4 Prius Prime. I didn't have the current values, but my educated guesses for the current...
This is the rested-battery open-circuit voltage so far: day voltage 18 13.05 V 19 12.98 V 20 12.95 V 21 12.92 V 22 12.90 V 23 12.87 V 24 12.87 V...
No, regular charging in the AGM mode. I wouldn't use the repair mode for a brand-new battery. The voltage goes up to 14.8 V in the AGM mode and...
Delay?? I didn’t expect Toyota to make BEVs until 2026 to begin with. LOL 2026 is actually very good. I would say it is delayed if we don't see it...
Ah, I see. But this isn't the only source of parasitic drain. There are also small parasitic drains coming from elsewhere.
There is no spare tire. You stop being jealous, too. LOL
You can subscribe to TIS for two days for about $20. That section I mentioned was posted in one of the battery forums here though.
Why LOL? It is a fully loaded Gen 5 Prius Prime with a solar roof, and this is supposed to be a Prius forum. Do I sense jealousy? LOL
It is loosely described in the Gen 5 new-car features manual. 12.89 V is the default. 14.10 V is usually only briefly when the car first starts or...
As far as the battery type is concerned, I think the Gen 4/Gen 5 charging system is agnostic to it. Perhaps even an LFP 12-V battery would work....
Ha, what is the 12-V-battery current when the DC–DC converter pulls back to 12.86–12.92 V? And how about at 14.10 V? It has about four voltage...
He got it $3,100 below MSRP with the dealer and military discounts, and you're still complaining. LOL Until a few months ago, a $5,000 markup...
Nice sheet, but it doesn't seem to be dynamically updated but seems to be frozen in April. You can always call a dealer and ask them to search...
In my case, it’s an AGM battery; so, a 12.89 V float voltage is equal to the open-circuit voltage. People have reported their 12-V battery SOC...
