    Hacking the VSP Box (Noise Maker)

    Oh my bird. This thread got abandoned by both of us :oops: Well, so, I no longer have a LEAF, as I'm now a Model 3 guy, but I pop in and out of LEAF things every now and then. One thing I've noticed is that Leaf Spy Pro is now able to enable/disable VSP features at a very granular level. You...

    LeafDD - Dash Display for Leaf

    Resistance correlates with temperature - a cold battery has higher resistance, which is why you lose range: energy is lost to internal resistance which results in the battery warming itself up. So it is, thankfully, a self-correcting condition... at the expense of energy. That is also to say...

    LeafDD - Dash Display for Leaf

    Amps and volts from EVSE are reported live? So if you use the JB's remote and use the "OutC-" button to reduce the amperage, the limit gets shown on the Page 2 numbers display right away? I'm the JuiceBox whisperer... ;) I helped design the newer JBs and am the last guy standing in support of...

    LeafDD - Dash Display for Leaf

    With some help from Greg, I put together this explainer for the page 2 display of the LeafDD - the big jumble of numbers page. :) (if the above image dies: it's a photo of the LeafDD with elements labeled A through J roughly clockwise from the top-center "S" value as item A, moving right, down...

    LeafDD - Dash Display for Leaf

    Wellp, here we go, I got my LeafDD from ampitupco (thanks!) and I dug in, read every post of the past 43 pages over the past hour or so. Wow. Lots of great info here. Sadly, SO VERY MUCH information lost by damn Imageshack and Photobucket swallowing nearly every single one of the images posted...

    LeafDD - Dash Display for Leaf

    *tosses hat into the ring* I'd like one too! I can't ... really ... bring myself to sit and sift through 43 past pages of posts to see what's been the current status of things, but I want to get my hands on one of these. Leaf Spy is super awesome and portable, but after having experienced a...

    NissanConnect EV / Telematics Hardware Update, for the post-2G world

    Jesus, is someone merging different threads into this one? This thing is so long and convoluted now, it needs to be taken out back and shot. I don't have time to read 20 past pages and see what everyone's been talking about, but I think this TCU upgrade warrants more than a single thread on the...

    Anyone use Juicebox 40a EVSE?

    (puts on work hat) Dhaww, geez, I love you guys. :mrgreen: This thread just gave our whole team a big batch of warm fuzzies! We've made a lot of progress since the beginning, and it's important to keep them all running, even those that were made back while we were still finding our footing...

    Acronyms!

    GOM - Guess-O-Meter - the "miles remaining" estimate in any EV. :lol: There's lots of opinions on this one, but one important note is that, with few exceptions in some EV models, it always varies on a full charge and tends to trip up some people. "Why isn't my car fully charged? I had 81 miles...

    LED headlight aiming knob - gone since 201x---?

    Awh. :( Well, I got my VSP Off button back easily enough (now the 4th car I've installed it in ;) ), but the headlight knob is a bummer. Unlike the VSP button (whose switch pin is still present in the module - and the "off" LED is in the center console!), I'm sure Nissan didn't leave the...

    LED headlight aiming knob - gone since 201x---?

    I just got a 2014 LEAF SV to replace my 2013 S, and it has all the bells and whistles - super excited! 8-) :mrgreen: But one thing is strangely missing. The headlight adjustment knob, something I had in the 2011 LEAF SL... (oh, and the "VSP Off" button, but I'm adding that back as I did with...

    Public discussion of Tony Williams ban from Mynissanleaf

    Both of you are just getting less and less professional reputation from this little exchange you're both engaging in here... neither of you has the willpower to just close the thread and ignore further comments...? Really, guys? Defending your ego can only go so far... at some point, doing so...

    Public discussion of Tony Williams ban from Mynissanleaf

    Deserves an extra post to make sure this point gets made: ^ ^ ^ ^ 100% of this. ^ ^ ^ ^ This is why, as I said earlier, I believe the old-school internet forum software, e.g. phpBB, has a very poor mechanism for "disciplining" real human members who are not just spammers or trolls. Although...

    Public discussion of Tony Williams ban from Mynissanleaf

    It's not really scary. It's business. This forum only has value because of the people that contribute to it. Banning has a place only for people whose behavior is so obviously, irreparably bad, that it causes distress to other members and in balance, their presence is better off not being here...

    Public discussion of Tony Williams ban from Mynissanleaf

    As I'm gathering, it was some dispute over billing for the right to advertise... which is a real childish reason to do it, let alone continue to keep him banned after the two people clearly have one anothers' attention. For various other reasons (e.g. the multiple accounts required on each model...

    Public discussion of Tony Williams ban from Mynissanleaf

    I had to scan through the posts another 2 times... is that "wxxyz"? Don't even see an admin tag or decorum or anything... good way to blend in when supporters look more important than the owner/admin :lol: Yeah, that severely tips the scale in favor of "let's build a new forum ourselves"... :?

    Public discussion of Tony Williams ban from Mynissanleaf

    Seriously? There are some folks in the EV community that are indisputably immune from bans due to their contributions and activity in the EV scene - those whom have done such great work that's helped build the industry we have today. In my view, Tony is one of those people. This is such an...

    Dead 12V Battery Overnight??

    Nope nope nope... don't worry, charging on L1 - as long as the car is actually charging (no errors; dash lights flashing properly; actually saying "charge" on the EVSE for an hour or so)... will also charge your 12V battery far more than enough to actually run the car. If the L1 doesn't...

    LEAF's 12V battery behaviors - and why they go bad

    Really it's hard to tell if it'll be bad... it's quite an unusual charge/discharge pattern for a lithium battery. It'll sit most of its life at around 80% charge, but with a heavy hammer to 100%* then immediately getting sucked down to 80% (as it briefly powers all the car's 12v systems during...

    LEAF's 12V battery behaviors - and why they go bad

    Oh that is fantastic! Looks awesome, and I'm thinking of replacing mine with that now, too. When it comes time, that's probably exactly what I'll do ;) Aha... but not. ;) Literally any time the HV battery is engaged, it's running the standard charge cycle, same as driving, L2 charging, L1...
