Doh! Totally forgot about that. In that case it's a moot point outside of which pack can better handle higher charge/discharge rates and costs...
I was under the impression the HI pack just initially connected the packs then isolated them once some SOC was reached. Has the designer updated...
It's right at the full demarcation on the dipstick, although it happened before my last oil change when the car ended up at about half that by the...
Do we know this is a troll? I've had nearby lightening strikes (half mile or less) generate enough EM to fry a GFI and make speakers talk (they...
I've noticed, maybe a handful of times in the 5k miles I've owned the car, that the engine will rattle excessively for maybe 30 seconds or so on a...
Someone could bypass the stock pack using pEEf/jdh's method once that's up and running, or via the hybridinterfaces approach, then have a...
This is a continuation of the discussion starting on page 11 of jdh2550's YAPiP thread. It started with the idea is that owners who keep the stock...
I'm not trying to convince him to change his course, I'm just following up on what other people were talking about and responding to some...
Discsussion about alternative pack configurations moved here.
I'm not seeing where A123 is showing how stressful the effects of high +/- C rates is... The only thing they show is the degradation at +1C/-2C,...
I don't think it's custom, 404s are pretty common around these parts. ;)
Stick a free/$3 multimeter on your battery and find out.
I think that's the advantage of keeping and isolating the stock pack. Instead of tailoring the new ECU to compensate for the different...
It may be a bit off topic, but I think for some users who could use the vehicle in all elecric mode but could also completely discharge the Li...
All the different Li batteries are newer, but only better in specific applications. For large discharges, ala EVs (I'm guessing ~50%-100% of...
I think it's my turn to confess being too vague. When I'm talking about energy use I'm referring to the energy the car generates and stores in the...
Hi miscrms! I think that the cycle life versus dod of NiMH is a function of it's chemistry. Most other chemistries (lead, li-ion) seem to...
I'm looking at the cost per kWh stored. A 1kWh NiMH pack, when cycled at ~20% should last ~100,000K cycles according to ECD, and should store...
This is accurate, however, the limited time frame to observe changes needs to be taken into account. As of right now it seems that climate change...
