Don't forget to check the SKS button under the steering wheel (It's actually a bit to the left of the steering wheel near the lower edge of the...
I agree that "balance charging" at 0.3A is a useful value for Prius packs. Technically this puts in 300 mAh per hour. This is 3 Ah in 10 hours...
I recently got a Tenergy T180 charger. It's charging mAh cutoff is user programmable. This works in conjunction with -dV/dt and battery...
Yes I have. However I haven't personally observed their charging equipment in person. FYI to all followers of this thread, Hybrid Automotive is...
Another thing I've been testing is doing the "top charging" by setting up my charger to stop after adding 100mAh of charge. The Tenergy T180 is...
This is reassuring. It indicates the manufacturer of your grid charger fully understands the details of charging and balancing a Prius hybrid...
Thanks for this info. I was thinking grid chargers would be likely to apply charging currents in this range (100mA up to 500mA). In my own...
Although checking for a voltage drop of a few mV across a fuse will reveal circuits which have a substantial current drain, keep in mind that...
I've been experimenting with a range of "top charge" voltages and also with "deep discharges" down to voltages in the range of 0.4 to 0.8V per...
My Tenergy T180 arrived yesterday. I've been using it ever since. One operational difference I observed so far is that "charge termination" by...
Have you looked at the orange plug and socket where the HV battery sensing wires go into the hybrid battery ECU module? Also take a look inside...
For the case of two electrical terminals which have a conductive path between them due to the presence of water or other liquids, both electrons...
Rain water collecting in the those rear compartments is a well-known issue for the 2nd gen Prius. I've owned my 2005 Prius since 2006. I first...
Another issue related to my Prius having a corroded orange battery ECU connector: The corrosion inside my orange connector is between the pins...
As soon as the T180 arrives I'll be able to finish balancing my HV battery. I'll be combining 4 used replacement modules (fully tested by me)...
Thanks! I am ordering one right now. This will double my charging capacity since I already have a B6AC charger. I bought it years ago. Actually...
There are ebay sellers who offer individual Prius modules (not the entire HV pack) where they disclose the mAh capacity. mAh is much more...
