Tried out a couple of Bluetooth adapters when I got my 22" SV+, but no success with them and LeafSpy Pro. Been using a wifi adapter since, but sometimes takes a while to connect. Anyone find a good Bluetooth adapter, that works reliably?

I can add my experience of a few days ago, with my 22' SV+ 12V battery. Not long ago I had posted leaf spy data showing the main pack in fine shape. A couple of days later however, out of the blue, I went to start the leaf and was greeted by a dashboard full of very colorful lights and some fast...

14mv difference is low and quite good (my 22' SV+ stays in that range). I don't think we'd get a zero differential practically, but you're just fine at 14mv. If you start getting 50,100 or plus mv's, I'd start keeping a close eye on things. I don't think the BMS system has any problem with...

My 22' SV+ at around 8000 miles ( I'm retired, short trips, trickle charge only, one QC at the dealership two years ago) SOH: 97.54 Hx: 97.99 Cell Balance: 15 mv 12v @13.04v

If you don't mind parting with about 100 bucks, you can get a self-powered Voltage Data Logger, which I use to check the 12v condition either parked or driving. They just attach using alligator clips. A Data Logger can be set to "sample"over a large range of time, so you can see just what the...

Back to the original topic....because 2 years ago when I got my 22' SV+, I had also looked at a Model 3 prior to that. Then Tesla started raised prices every other month...

I had some interest in the comma AI for the last couple of years since getting my leaf, and, although it appears to perform well on highways and well marked suburban roads, on actual curvy country roads even with markings, not so much.

Glad you posted the question. I've always wondered about front collision avoidance using just radar instead of ultrasonics. My former prius, 2017, had both radar and sonic sensors seem to work well. Don't know why Nissan didn't in the front too. I'll have to try the cardboard box test... As...

I hope that SpaceX now has enough Expertise to continue when Musk goes completely "round the bend"...

The WSJ has been known for a very long time that "It turns right at every stop". Since its been in operation since like 1889, I'm sure that it ran articles on the "Deep State forcing us into using one of those "new fangled" rotary phones instead of the wood box hand-cranked ones, and similarly...

Have to look into a 4G microcell. A conventional "booster" in the valley won't work as the hills are around 500'. I can get calls thru wi-fi no problem. But my 22' leaf needs the "straight from the tower" signal to work. I have a good Router, GPS signal can be received (probably need an external...

No cell signal in the "dead zone" where I live. Not paying for something that wouldn't work in the first place...

I do any occasional check with LeafSpy, but the one thing I look at is cell balance. If its my typical 10-15mv, all is probably well. The other thing is the 12v battery voltage, which has been good for the last year and a half on my 22' SV+. If I want to keep tabs on the 12v other than leafSpy...

7, because statistically, that's all the time I have left...

Now retired my trips are about 25 miles total maybe2-3 times a week. Perhaps its a update to increase accuracy (or not...). I would just make enough trips to take the battery down to 10-20%, but since I usually solar charge (trickle), and can charge when there's a fair bit of sun (or partly...

Had the update done about a month ago for the 22' SV+. I'm noticing maybe a 10% increase in kwh/mile, total range. Don't drive highways much so can't tell about the following distance, but did check the system in traffic to see if it resumed to set cruise when the car ahead moved. I probably sat...

Yeah, I'd have to go with quick charging an already hot battery. Lots of examples in other things like a kids "stand up two wheeler" being ridden on a hot day, kid goes back puts it right back on the charger cause' they gotta get back out there... That and really poor engineering, minimum or no...

All the above plus of course Big Oil. Big Oil also did a successful "hit job" on EV's in the early 1900's...

MicroCell might be useful, "cell boosters" I tried briefly quite a while ago...would work fine with a 500' tower, otherwise not so much with hills of 500' around here. "Go to car" works fine this year. Last year had two total knee replacements (not both at once, not that big into PAIN :-(.)

South Central Ohio, in a valley. No signal here that usable. By third party, I was referring to say something like OVMS which works for older Leafs, but not a recent year like my 22' SV+. Be nice but that's the way it is. As far as cell signal here, I can get cell over Wify, but the Leaf needs a...
