My first wet weather driving the leaf starts tomorrow. Any thoughts? Things to consider?

Is there a simple thread to keep track of just the listing of the DC chargers and their status as they go online? Haward is coming online soon Morgan hill is if not already ... A date, and expected date online? Hoping to not wade through 48 pages to find the new ones and status.. I can now...

Ok, I live in CA where I have PGE. And the tiered energy rate. I am on e9a. So my bill for electricity is now about $211 a month. Using 1000kw a month. We have the new smart meter. So how are people estimating the powere cost to put into charging calculations with the tiered rates? It has to...

I know. I want the ability to start charging, AND to also STOP charging without going to the car! If you can turn on charging I don't' see why you cant' turn it off... It seems silly... The wife has a group that does charging in shifts. and not having to go out to turn off the car could be...

Any know if we are going to get a new Carwings IOS application update? While I like some of the things that the IOS app does, I want MORE! So when do we get a new update?

Interested But this seems kind of steep. 6kWh - $8000 8kWh - $10,500 10kWh-$13,000 It may depend on the cells. But I could use a bit more range..

Any one know if Phil is going to make it? Ii want to pick up a charger if he has them, but I don't know if I have the range to come if he isn't going to be there. I have 78 miles to drive Saturday all bEfore 1:15pm. I sent an email on his site but didn't hear back.

Eric, There is a QC charger at bishop ranch. Which is just down the road from walnut creek on the way to santacruz. I used it 6/24, left side. Way cool, 20 minutes, from 40% to 80%. Almost not enough time to get bored. I did find it sad I wanted to sit in the car and listen to the radio and...

I agree, sometimes I hypermile, but I think I average about the same, 3.8m/kwh to 4.4m/kwh. To work it is 3.8m/kwh and to home it can be 5m/kwh. And while I know that I am not a hyper miler all the time, I find that I am am going by what the range meter tells me how much charge I have. So this...

I am curious as well if some one has rough estimates? I currently know that with the standard EVSE 120VAC, it is about 6-7 miles/hr of charge. I don't have an L2 charger yet but am waiting on the EV project and will have a L2 Blink charger at home. I was wondering if someone has the rough...

I got some help from the dealer. They sent a exploded view picture by FAX of all things.. Old School! The idea to get the light covers for the MAP light off, is there are 4 attachment points per white cover. Pry the cover off. They are not screwed on. Closest to the front windshield use a...

I was going into the LEAF the other day after a rain. I opened the trunk lid to keep me dry and decide what I wanted from the trunk. I then promptly figured out what I wanted and then got it out, it was little heavy so had to lean in to pick it up. I realized after picking it up and leaning in...

Dome light is easy, pry from the side corners near the switch. Do one side then the other. Then it comes off. I still don't know how to get the map lights off though. I even asked at the dealer and they didn't know. And have to call me back because no one knows.

So I had a Prius and went to the leaf. We had led lights inside before because of added brightness and color. I got some nice lights now from v-LEDs.com, but any one have some hints to get the light covers off to get access to change the lights. I suspect prying the cover off, but thought I...
