Congrats guys on your new toy. For a bunch of newbies you're getting better MPG than most old timer (w/o kit of course).
I had to adjust both of mine to increase current charge. Try adjusting the Operating voltage first if you still don't see any current then go...
Man, u guys just have all the "theories" don't you. Let's just wait till force do a second oil analysis under standard hybrid condition. Force....
pbui, I'm relying on the two drain holes to provide circulation and cooling. I'll probably design a plenum that can provide a more efficient...
mrbigh, thank you for the very thorough explanation and guidance. With high cell count the balancing act become extremely tough. I guess that's...
Gen2 Prius basically have 168 NiMh cells. Toyota plays it ultra conservative and limit the charge to < 80% SOC, for long term durability. I read...
Many of us would love to have Toyota's 2012 PHEV Prius, PIC, or Hymotion PHEV system. Unfortunately they are cost prohibitive so that's why we...
I have a custom Enginer system that I bought from Jack over a year ago. After three bad 3kW converters, I think the system is now finally stable....

Beautiful template! I did the opposite as you. My two converters are in the spare tire area, where the Enginer steel box are used to house my...
Mike, you can use the ScanGuage to easily check the charge current and voltage of the converter. If you don't have one. You can borrow mine....
Thanks Chan for the 2x breaker recommendation. Dual converter will pull ~120A and definitely trip that breaker. My parts are on order just...
you can check your engineer pack voltage before and after the run to verify power consumption. eg. if you run your pack for 30mins continuous....
Chan, The reason why I asked you the end SOC is because you have your CellLog. From that data you can a good feel of the SOC. I'm going with a...
thx for the great report. The second converter provides a significant boost to the overall MPG. What is the SoC your 8kW pack after the 70 miles...
Dan, I know you were just presenting the information. I just asked to get a little more clarity on it. From reading your short topoff charge...
Dan, can you get a charge log of with and without the DB8 ballancer. cause from the chart it looks like the ballancer may be the problem.
Dan, Why bother fighting the loosing battle with the Chargery balancer. Most of the guys over the DYICar forum don't even bother balancing their...
