    LeftieBiker, Cwerdna, Thanks for the information. This morning I purchased the Professional Diagnostic Tool OBD-II ELM327 V1.5 Bluetooth Car Diagnostic Interface Scanner from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EQ57BE8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00 Your information was...

    Cwerdna, Thanks for the links. Today a friend of mine and I poured concrete down my 10' tall, 30' long block wall so I'm pooped. I should complain... he did all the ladder climbing and small concrete bucket hoisting, I just shoveled gravel sand and concrete powder. While chilling tonight, I...

    Thanks Cwerdna for the YMMV (Your Method May Vary) post. When it arrives I will let everyone know whether it works or not. The one you bought and like http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009F4JHHO/?tag=myelecarfor-20&?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00 has a good description...

    Uh oh, I've been caught. Actually, I realized I made an impulse buy and impulse post about it almost immediately after posting my last message. Soon as I finished the purchase, I looked back at the LELink Bluetooth description and realized my purchase didn't claim any of the electric vehicle...

    Just purchased an ODB-II connection device that handles WiFi and Bluetooth using iOS, Android or Windows. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00WPW6BAE?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00 Not sure if this will work for the 2011 Leaf, but I will be able to use it at home on all my...

    I enjoy the computer simulations as well. Mostly I work with ocean currents and find PacIOOS Voyage Mobile an excellent resource. http://oos.soest.hawaii.edu/pacioos/voyager/mobile/index.html We have 5500 feet of 16 inch pipe that floated away but still has the distant end moored to the sea...

    Will this Bluetooth OBDII diagnostic adapter work on any ODBII compliant vehicle? I spoke with the Executive Director today. Turns out he has been looking at the left side of the dashboard display (battery temperature) thinking it was the health of the battery. He saw the 'thermometer' symbol...

    This is an excellent picture. Hilo is on the extreme left coast, Kona is on the extreme right coast.

    Fresh meat

    Today I attempted to connect via Bluetooth with my Android phone. There was already a Bluetooth device listed so I did not want to erase the one already stored. If I add my Android phone device will the Leaf erase the previous one and only list mine, or will it simply list 2 devices?

    Off topic, I used to work at the solar plant in the Natural Energy Lab in Kona. While you were teaching Meteorology, did you learn and teach the Analemma? I learned a great deal about our solar weather from the Analemma. Build one at home and you'll have fun.

    Seems like this car only has the quick charge connection?

    Fresh meat

    Answer 1: Golfcart, Performance is excellent. The Executive Director is complaining the battery is failing early and wants a new one for free. As it is turning out, it seems we have been treating the car improperly, thus causing the battery to lose Bars prematurely. At first we charged after...

    When we were planning to move here, I told people we were moving to Phoenix by the sea. Each island has 4 cardinal sides, and each west side is hot, each east side is rainy, each south side is windy, and each north side is rainy & windy. This Leaf is parked on the east side of a building, so...

    Kubel, Being a fleet vehicle, this car sits a lot between uses. The Executive Director uses it to go to the airport occasionally (5 miles 1-way) and the Office Secretary uses it to check the mail daily (2 miles each way). Also the Chief Engineer uses it to check on projects (1 mile each...

    Fresh meat

    Thanks Cwerdna and LeftieBiker for the Guess-O-Meter and State-Of-Charge explanations, Tomorrow (Tuesday) I will examine (and understand) the dash display and console display more closely. About 6 or 8 months ago we relocated the wall mounted charger. The Executive Director complained that...

    From this completed weekend full charge, shouldn't the 50 miles actually read [with 2 bars missing] 63 ? The 50 reading is more like missing 5 bars. Somewhere in the forum I read... Missing 1st bar is "minus 15%" -- missing subsequent bars is "minus 6.5%" each one; So... (-1 bar) 80 miles...

    Thanks LeftieBiker. I downloaded Leaf Spy Lite onto my personal Android phone and will connect to the Leaf on Tuesday. If there is a Windows phone Leaf Spy app then I should be able to purchase it on the company credit card. I will also examine the Leaf's on board console display in more...

    Here is a picture of the dash display at the first of January 2016. The battery was charged over the weekend and I turned the car on just to see the display. What can I learn from this display ?...

    Jefe, you cracked me up, I laughed out loud. I called my first wife the "activities director". But you are correct, the Executive Director is the real ED at work. The organization provided the car for him and he wants it to be his shining star. It's not looking so good these days in his...

    Thanks for all the posts, information and friendly greetings. Tuesday I'll be back at work and around the Leaf again. I will post more specific information. In the meantime, I looked at a picture of the dashboard and it has 10 short segments showing (2 red, 8 white) alongside the longer lines.
