I see about 25% more range, just as advertised. Seems like a LOT more, also seems like it takes longer to top off the charge.

Stanton, The LL app on my phone stalls while trying to connect; it has the little loopy thing near the upper LH corner of the screen that never stops looping. When trying to get the Nissan app working, the T.S. guy told me to delete the app from the cloud and download it "fresh". (remember...

Stanton said: The LL app seems to be trying to connect when it first opens, but is never successful. The Help file says something to the effect of "try the Nissan EV app, if it works, contact Support". I have done that, but gotten no reply. The Nissan EV app does work, it's just slow and...

Thanks for the feedback! I have only about 800 miles on the car so far, have run it down to 35% or so once or twice. Usually use the timer to charge it before I need it, almost never when it's near or above 80%. My practice is to charge based on anticipated usage. With the larger battery, it's...

Interesting: my iPhone shows "off" or "timer". Once I press "Off", it will return with "Request Sent" and a checkmark. I then press the "home" button, wait a bit, then try the CC button and I'll have the "on" or "timer" selections. Will try the LL app again and see if I can get it to work, I...

I've noticed that charging the battery in the 2016 seems to take MUCH longer than it did in my 2013, that time being devoted to the equalization function. It seems that a lot of time is devoted to that. Also, I often carry one or 2 of my friends in the back seat. One of them is 6 feet tall, and...

You're right, I don't type the username/password. Will try going direct to the CC function w/o requesting an update; it seems that the app required that, but maybe that was the 'other' app. I figured out a workaround to make it 'seem' a bit quicker: Open the app and go through everything...

Apparently, the LeafLink app is dead/unsupported, so I'm forced back to the Nissan EV app. It works, but is slow and requires a lot of 'button presses'. I have to do this: (using iPhone 6) Sign in. Hit the "update" button (little circle thingy). Wait, sometimes takes a few minutes. Press the...

Plugless (Ashley) sent me a followup email, and I took the opportunity to ask about swapping the unit to another vehicle: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Currently, the...

I used the LeafLink app with my 2013, just to turn on the climate control before leaving the restaurant. It worked much better than Nissan's app for that purpose. Now, with a new 2016 Leaf, the LeafLink app doesn't work at all, and the email link for support seems to be unanswered...

Most of my shooting is with pistols, so no need for a gun rack. However, some years ago, when I was doing a lot of rifle shooting, a criteria when buying a car was to check the trunk room for the rifle case. :lol: And, I don't even live in Texas. :D

They claim less than 10% efficiency loss. Haven't heard back as to exactly who installs these things on/in your car, I assume that it's NOT the Nissan dealer. FT: that $1500.00 is balanced against the $500.00 or so for a regular L2 EVSE, the installation will be about the same. Well, maybe a...

EVD, I emailed them, asking about efficiency loss. Also, who do they have do the 'on car' part of the installation. Will update this post when I hear back. <<Jim>>

I was looking at the inductive charging outfit from http://www.pluglesspower.com. Although it looks neat, it's limited to 3.3 Kw. From a practical standpoint, it would probably work fine for me, as it would always top off the charge, every time I pull into the garage. Of course, that's also a...

I plugged my LeafDD in to the 2016 SL that I took delivery of last week. Was hoping to see some huge numer of Gids available. :-) Although it seems to be 'mostly' working, the Gids display is mostly just jumping around. The LH (hudreds) number is showing a '3', but the tens and units numbers...
