    Does it make sense to add genset to Leaf?

    regarding first posts on this thread - TomT , smkettner, Smidge204, Interleaf, EVDRIVER and other winers - why not just ignore thread if you can add NO value? so much junk to scroll thru, unbeliveable. Question was NOT if it makes sense! But HOW TO do it. If you dont' know - that doesn't...

    Pics! New wheels, tires, dampers, subwoofer, tint, antenna

    Before i read your post - i put it under glove box, had to remove one panel. Passenger does not compain. By the way, highly recommend this JL Audio sub - sound is amazing. I'm happy now with overall sound quality - do not think i will be replacing other speakers. As for cubby space - i've put...

    Install diesel coolant heater?

    surpised you think they smell - range rovers have them by default in cold markets - no problem. Just need clean install - there is 0% chance for smell. Space permits . Hoses expposed - heat circulation pump is exactly under front bumper (not super smart location) Thanks for heated seats link...

    Heated seats

    I think it would have been a little easier, but i'm panicly afraid of disconnecting those airbad wires (even wtih battery disconnected). It wasn't that mush extra hassle anyway. Heated seats is a must! not even winter yet, but already feels good in the morning.

    Help, need navigation while driving

    i wouldn't post if i didn't use this car for 1 year. It's like you bought new fridge, but it won't let you open door untill 5 past hour. Just let me use my thing. If I want to kill myself - i don't need fancy navigation system. My life is still rather full of events - often i would find...

    Heated seats

    Just installed mine. Chose rectangular switches wtih dial - they fit very nicely, almost like factory. And provide 5 levels of heat. kit was $80 from ebay, no extra parts needed. I only modified backlight of switches to allow it to light up when hearlights are on. My kit ba default illuminated...

    Help, need navigation while driving

    I just hacked it. all it took - small wire, small switch and 30 minutes of time. http://youtu.be/NKAdTIMAC1M navigation does get confused for a little bit, but quickly recovers when switch is back on. So much better. And safer!

    gas generator trailer for EV's

    This is why i came across this thread - I have 3kW genset, I have small utility trailer. I can put them together for that one trip a year - no problem. I would probably never buy a special unit. Quetsion remains - how can I feed power into Leaf when driving?

    Install diesel coolant heater?

    I love my car to be toasty, but even in Oregon - being warm in Winter in Leaf - means cutting mileage in half. So i'm dreaming about adding a coolant heater that is used on diesel cars. Size seems ok, and there is space inside front fenders (in front of wheels), or possibly - in front of...

    Pics! New wheels, tires, dampers, subwoofer, tint, antenna

    Where did you mount amp? I am going to buy same sub, and i have rockford fosgate amp, 550 s, can't fid a good place for it. My best idea so far - inside the front seat!! Behind seat, under cloth - it's all empty. But something tells me it's a strange location :) I don't want it mounted in...

    Re-plugging some one else's Leaf to L2

    I found myself in interesting situation - two L2 chargers, one is iced, and Leaf using second charger. I can park by second charger, but cord from ICEd charger can only reach other Leaf, not mine. I was looow on charge, and had to do this... I activated other charger, and plugged it into other...

    Option for NO regen?

    I came to realize the opposite from "more regen" is needed - no regen at all at some times! Few posts mentioned to get worse milage in ECO mode on highway - which supports my observation - when on highway, it's difficult to never let go accelerator pedal all the way (triggering regen) while no...

    Scraping sound from under hood! Can this be fixed?

    i couldn't hear it at first too bacause it it a natural sound, in a way. Try this - drive slow - 5 mph - and repeat turn on / turn off VSP. You'll realise car moves silent and it's VSP that has been scraping:) Untill you know it's there - it's not bothering you. I wa unlucky to learn how...

    How to report mistakes about charging points on Leaf's map?

    In Portland they have mistakenly upgraded L2 to L3 at OMSI, but still missing chargers at PSU. I didn't find a "report error" button on the owners portal anywhere. Does anyone know of how to report such stuff?
