    Wind Deflectors/ Aerodynamics?

    This has been briefly touched upon in the past, but not much... rather than revive a post from 2012 I thought I'd put up a new one. Why aren't there any wind deflectors for sale aftermarket for the Leaf? If ever there were a car for it this is it. Would much rather have the windows down than...

    Wind Deflector

    I'm really surprised there aren't options for this. If ever there were a car for it this is it. Would much rather have the windows down than run the AC. Perhaps the effect on the aerodynamics is too great?

    Using the Leaf for power in a Blackout: MY "Leaf to Home"

    Part of what I'm going for here is versatility. I could get the 1000watt unit but I wanted to be able to also use the inverter with a small PV system I'm building too. I figured it was better to have more headroom and if need be just limit the current draw on the leaf with an appropriate sized...

    Using the Leaf for power in a Blackout: MY "Leaf to Home"

    I would love to go direct to the main bank but: 1. That inverter I imagine would be quite cost prohibitive. 2. 400v is way more likely to cook me if I screw something up. How would I even go about accessing the main bank leads?

    Using the Leaf for power in a Blackout: MY "Leaf to Home"

    So you're saying replace the existing accessory battery? Has anyone done this? How did you make space for it?

    Using the Leaf for power in a Blackout: MY "Leaf to Home"

    Question about the rating on the DC-DC unit: "The Leaf's DC-DC converter can supply up to about 1.7kW or 135a" If I wanted to attach a Xantrex prowatt sw2000 (1800W continuous) to this, how would I go about it so as not to damage anything in the Leaf? What would the results of attempting to...

    Portable 30 amp 240v EVSE questions?

    $1000 and back ordered, not exactly the best option, I guess the wait continues

    Real Home Power Backup

    I'd rather use up my leaf batteries than go for a drive. Got other cars if I need to get anywhere.

    Real Home Power Backup

    Ok, I've read about the leaf to home... And conceptually that's what I'd like, but 1. Not available here in US yet and 2. I'm sure it's more expensive and less fun than building my own ;) So, I've seen the option where people have run a 1500watt inverter off the 12v accessory battery, but that...

    Portable 30 amp 240v EVSE questions?

    I've been looking for a 30 amp portable EVSE option too. From what I can tell there's still nothing commercially avail out there yet. The universal tesla mobile conversion looked interesting but it looks like that kit is no longer avail from Tesla. Anyone aware of other options? EVSEupgrade...
