yeah, I was just reading about MSW vs PSW. So you think I would need a PSW inverter to run it? Also read that the earth ground is connected to system ground for most of these, but I didn't check mine yet.

Thanks for the replies. I know about the car needing to remain on in ready mode. I did have it that way. I measured the voltage and saw 14.4V but I think it went as low as 12.6 to 12.9V when the inverter was pulling power. It says "modified sine wave converter', but I don't know exactly what...

After a bad storm, we lost power and it wasn't predicted to come back on for 24 hours. I thought this would be a good opportunity to use my 2013 Leaf as a giant battery pack. I bought a 750W inverter, which should have been big enough to power my 5.1A fridge, but it wasn't able to power it...

Just going to follow up this post, in case someone else has similar issues. Turns out I wasn't talking to the correct person at Town North, the lease specialist contacted me and got me the correct pricing. I like my Leaf so I purchased it for $6k with ttl. Probably not the best deal, but it...

Yes, the $19+ is my residual on the finance website. Not offering any discount to it.

Anyone had any luck negotiating a buy out price in Austin? Town North leased me a 2013 four years ago, extended my lease twice. Told them this time I was either buying it or terminating my lease and they gave me a buy out price of 20k. It is my residual since I had a really low payment, but...

For me, it was 9 days.

Last follow up on my end of lease; my "two free months" were credited to my account a few days ago, and show up in my "payment history" online. For reference, my 12 month extension will "start" in about two weeks. I am still waiting to see if I get any paperwork back from the extension, but...

I may be wrong, but I think the build options are included in the VIN. So if you use a VIN decoder, it tells you what was factory installed. Example: http://www.vindecoderz.com/EN/check-lookup/1N4AZ0CP7FC326183" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I know the top of that page is...

I posted this on a different thread but was directed that this is the correct place to ask. If anyone has extended their lease and has a document stating it is month to month, can you post the wording. Note that the lease extension I have states that "Your lease contains information on early...

Just a question for anyone who got the "month to month" extension, can you post the details? I can clearly cancel my 12 month lease extension early, but it states it is at the same terms as my original lease. And I believe the cost then is really to pay off the lease since the residual is no...

I got my paperwork today, says payment stays the same, $0 due at lease extension signing an $395 disposition fee (if I don't purchase the vehicle). Depreciation over the next year is only $305.16, making my 2013 S go from 19384.30 to 19079.14 :lol: . It also says "we have also agreed to credit...

No secret word, just ask to extend your lease. I didn't do it the short way, by pressing 0 first, I entered my account and navigated the menu to look for the option, then pressed zero and waited on hold (a long time) before talking to someone. Still waiting for the paperwork in the mail...

Well, I tried again today and scanning any card makes the display show it is going to be $2 per hour. Then I used my phone to enable it and it said Free. Just got off the phone with Chargepoint, but they don't have a clue either, but it appears my account is messed up. So I think: You can...

New Leaf owner here in Austin. I got my Plug-In Partners card today, and linked it to my Chargepoint account. I submitted the request per the instructions but my Chargepoint account was already setup with the $25 deposit. I know the instructions say to mark it for free only, but I thought it...
