I manage to drive 2.8 miles (each way) to work and back, entirely in EV mode, using side streets and going under 34MPH. (Unless I step on the gas...
I can routinely drive the 2.8 miles (each way) to and from work entirely in EV mode. It was very difficult with the 3kW converter, which wasn't...
I get -12 or more all the time from my 5kW converter. The converter can be adjusted. Yours is probably set a bit low.
Because I live in sunny California, and because I haven't yet cleaned the junk out of my garage, I park in my driveway. My wife had the idea to...
I run my charger on a timer that turns it off for a half hour, then back on for a half hour, several times overnight. The theory is that the...
EV switch warm up If I engage EV mode when I turn the the power on, then, while the car is still parked in the driveway, I change my mind and...
I wrote about this problem in the Enginer Forum. It was suggested that I get a CellLog, which I did, and wrote down voltages at various times....
SOC Measurement As I understand from reading this forum, the Prius calculates the SOC of the traction battery by measuring the current going in...
You could put it on Google docs. You could even make it wiki-like, by letting anyone edit it.
If this is true, it sounds like a design flaw. The converter shuts itself off when it gets too hot, but it turns off its fans at the same time....
In my string of problems (almost all solved so far!) with my Enginer 4kWh system, the latest is a somewhat intermittent flashing "low battery"...
I used a CanOBD2 reader. I didn't find "subcode" in the manual. Any idea how to get the subcode? I haven't cleared the DTC yet. I cleared the...
Yesterday, I was driving home in EV mode, PHEV on, about 80°F, no hills, not accelerating, SOC about 4 bars, about 1/2 mile out, when it dropped...
As I posted before, the circuit breaker in my Enginer started tripping after driving for 5-10 minutes. I managed to reproduce this with my car...
Sometimes when the EV mode switch is pressed, the Prius won't go into EV mode. Usually it gives the triple-beep when this happens, but I have...
I have an interesting heat problem with my Enginer 4kW system. Here it's not as hot as Miami, perhaps about 80° at the moment, but this was...
If the check engine light (Malfunction Indicator Light, "MIL") is caused by driving with a PHEV unit (I got one once, when in EV mode), then I...
Yes, I charge overnight. I plug it in when I get home and leave it plugged in until I drive again. No, the BMS does not normally disconnect the...
That's what I understand as well. Often the light will stay on for a few minutes, then (when the pack recovers?) it will turn off and the system...
A good thing about Prius PHEV conversions in general is that they mostly don't change the appearance of the car, except for an outlet on the...
