    A portable, removable battery for trunk

    Wish Nissan had thought of this... A portable, removable battery that would fit in the bottom of trunk, with a place to plug it in. Could use it when another 10 - 20 miles (?) of range is needed. Remove it otherwise to reduce the weight. I have an infrequent commute that is now out of range --...

    Idea for range extention: Portable, removable battery

    Wish Nissan had thought of this... A portable, removable battery that would fit in the bottom of trunk, with a place to plug it in. Could use it when another 10 - 20 miles (?) of range is needed. Remove it otherwise to reduce the weight. I have an infrequent commute that is now out of range...

    Are you sorry you bought a Leaf?

    Pros: (happy I bought it) -- insurance policy against gas prices / shortages. I lived through the oil embargoes. I am also a peak oil believer -- drives / looks like a great car, ice or electric -- 1/2 price of the Volthoax Cons: -- must make a 110 mile, one way commute to...

    How to calculate: X amt of charging time to go Y # of miles

    Say that my charge is running low, and I have 25 miles more to go. So I stop in at the friendly Nissan dealer that is along the way, and I plug in to their 220v charger. On average, about how long would I have to wait there while charging to make sure I get that needed extra 25 miles? I know...

    Backup camera worked only once...

    Ok, then. Just one more question... Can anyone recommend a good psychiatrist? ;-)

    Backup camera worked only once...

    No, the hatchback lift handle does not have that bump. So, I have apparently gone absolutely batty! But, I've got witness who were in the car, too, and they said "wow" when the backup camera image appeared on the screen. So, we are all batty!? However, I wonder if the camera is actually...

    Backup camera worked only once...

    Ok.. the mystery deepens... I have an SV, which presumably does NOT include the backup camera. "For the LV: In addition to standard SV features, includes: • Photovoltaic Solar Panel Spoiler • RearView Monitor (RVM)" However, it DID work once. This suggests that there is a backup camera on...

    The screen remains as it was before putting the car in reverse.

    Backup camera worked only once...

    UPDATE: For those just reading this thread... problem solved. I must have had a 'false memory' that it was my Leaf that had the backup camera. Actually, I was "remembering" this from a test drive with the dealer that did have it.... So, never mind. ----------------- Backup camera worked...
