Thanks Gary. I watched the device closely over the past couple of days. Here is what I saw. First, if the device is warm, everything works perfectly - both modes and all five values. Depending on how cold it is, at power on, I may get a few dim random figures in the display, the 0000 and then...

I have been having trouble with the display showing random characters when the meter is cold. Been too busy with other stuff to deal with it. :oops: Anyway someone on the Seattle Leaf board, can't remember who, told me that some of the early display modules were defective and had this problem...

I don't yet have winter tyres for the Leaf, so I had to drive the Starlet twice. It does very well in the snow, but I expect the Leaf will be awesome with the right tyres. A secondary reason was that I'd rather some moron who should have stayed home hit the Starlet than the Leaf. ;)

Irregardless, I LIKE it! :D

Glad too see that they have an updated checklist. They don't have to check the exhaust anymore. :D Thanks for the post.

And the tow truck.... ;)

I'm old school and just plain don't like flex. :x So it's purdy to me. ;)

My Leaf has to live outside, no choice. :( Biggest problem is tree detritus accumulating in the wiper/air intake area. Here's my charging solution.

Hmm. Works for me as well. Mac/Safari

What's your addy again? :twisted: Oh, you already spent the cash. Never mind. :lol:

The usual. "How far does it go?' "How long does it take to recharge?" "How much did it cost?" "How much is the 'charger'?" He seemed more than a little interested. But dummy me never thought to direct him to this site. :oops:

Approaching Burien on the fwy today, a man in a Prius waved me to pull over. I answered his questions in the Ivar's parking lot. :)
