I just bought my first Prius--a 2014 Prius C- and I reconditioned and serviced thd battery. Love the car, and now I'm looking for a 2017 to 2019 model.
Are the Lithium battery packs in the newer models rebuildable?
I'm thinking that you can only recondition and tweak and extend the NIMH battery packs and replace individual cells but you can't do much with Lithium cells...
Is my thinking incorrect? Should I really be looking at Gen 3 years instead of later generations?
Thanks

The National Electrical Code is updated every 3 years. They are proposing mandating a 5mA GFCI on all (hardwired & plugin) 240 volt circuits, Any reser would likely be located in the electrical panel, perhaps in a locked room.

There should be a carveout for L2 chargers because they have their own GFPE (Ground Fault Protection of Equipment), which is intended to protect equipment and is permitted to trip at values larger than 5mA, often in the 15–20mA range.
