    I broke my "primary" 2018 LEAF key ... where to go to add a new key?

    I visited Sutherlin Nissan in Fort Myers and they were very nice and couldn't believe the key stopped working when I replaced the battery. They tried to replace the battery themselves (free) to no success. They verbally gave me a price of $330 to $400+ to replace the key. I had a ceiling in my...

    I broke my "primary" 2018 LEAF key ... where to go to add a new key?

    Hello, everyone, I got a low battery warning on my daily use key fob, and after changing the batteries, the key fob doesn't work. I did check the battery and it's the correct one (CR2016) and I even put in another battery and cleaned the contacts inside. The only thing I can think of is that I...

    Combining 2 TT-30 outlets to a 14-50R?

    Thanks to everyone who has responded / warned about my postings ! The ZENCar adjustable current, 120-240VAC EVSE arrived today, and in my limited testing, it indeed does allow the 2018 LEAF (with charging package) to charge at an EVSE-selectable 10A, 16A, 20A, 24A or 32A, either 120V or 240V...

    Combining 2 TT-30 outlets to a 14-50R?

    Dear fellow LEAFer's, This past weekend I was all excited to charge at my discovered 6-50 receptacle at the distant recreation area in the country. I brought along the Amazon and EVSE Adapter-branded 6-50P to 14-50R dogbone adapters, my Volt-Ohm-Meter and hopes and dreams of getting a 25...

    Combining 2 TT-30 outlets to a 14-50R?

    Dear WWhitney and Oilpan4, I was within the return period for Amazon and so I've sent the Y adapter back for credit. How did the car charge on the adapter? I don't know, like I said, I did forget my VOM and I was standing in wet grass in 90+ degree heat and I didn't really think of...

    Combining 2 TT-30 outlets to a 14-50R?

    Hello, everyone, I made the trip to the place where they have camping spots. This is not a campground, but another recreational area where they just happen to entertain guests that are staying overnight in campers. They were very nice and offered me free EV charging at a camping spot. Yes! I...

    Combining 2 TT-30 outlets to a 14-50R?

    Well, the adapter arrived to my home today. I checked it with a multi-meter and it's wired exactly the way I thought it was going to be. The two grounds are connected, the two neutrals are connected, and one "hot" goes to the "X" and one "hot" goes to the "Y" contact in the receptacle end. I...

    Combining 2 TT-30 outlets to a 14-50R?

    Thank you for clueing me in to the adapter on Amazon. I put in an order and hopefully it will be here in 2 weeks. As far as the electrocution hazard: a. Thanks for letting me know. b. I suspect that the EVSE would go into fault and shutdown the load (i.e. the charger in the car) if I lost...

    Combining 2 TT-30 outlets to a 14-50R?

    Mr. Learjet, No, I haven't ... the place where I want to charge is far away, it's all day to go up and back. I am trying to be low profile about this and I haven't checked that, yet. The less questions I ask of the staff there, the better. Vince

    Combining 2 TT-30 outlets to a 14-50R?

    Has anyone made up an article to combine two TT-30 outlets (assuming the two 120 volt hots) into a single 14-50R receptacle? I am looking to charge at 240V, 24 amps at a place that has these pedestals with TT-30 outlets ... and I am trying to keep my research low profile. I bought 2 TT-30 plugs...

    2018 Leaf

    At last check my FICO score was in the high 700's. My auto insurance went up, even though this vehicle was "less expensive" at the start of the lease than the 2015 it replaced. This, combined with the unrelated fact that I am in a partnership of an aircraft wherein we buy a "declared value"...

    Joining the EV only club

    Yes, we have joined this club. I originally leased a 2011 LEAF SL in February 2012 when my wife's expensive car lease came up. She needed a car, and my workplace had installed 7! 32A EVSE's. I leased the first LEAF and gave her my Mazda 3 to drive while she got her Masters's degree and...

    Looking at a 2013 Nissan LEAF SL - 9 bars, 41k miles

    Hello, everyone, I did buy the Sky Blue 2012 LEAF SL from the dealership. I checked the car and watched the SOH reading go from 81% to 77% right before my very eyes. The dealer was evidently fully charging the car every time someone was going to come take a test drive, and it was left in the...

    Looking at a 2013 Nissan LEAF SL - 9 bars, 41k miles

    Thank you for your replies, guys. I just think as LEAF's not being likely to be moved many hundreds of miles from their original delivery location. Being so deep into Florida, I would assume 99% of the cars in Fort Myers were delivered to Orlando or points further south, where we don't have a...
