    3D printed J1772 holester

    Hi all. Just wanted to chime in. The very first J1772 3D printed inlet was designed by me. It has been on the thingiverse since Feb 24 2013. I know I was the first because I searched everywhere, couldn't find one, so I made one and uploaded it. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:53586"...

    aah, i was a week off, our day in San Fran is actually the 17th. (land on the 16th) We will be in San Diego to fly back on the 22nd. So both the 14th and the 24th are wrong. Sorry about the confusion.

    Yes, now is a good time to chime in. I will be taking a vacation to California to visit. Starting in San Fran to crash with a childhood friend of mine, and then drive down to LA with my GF so she can visit her old friends, then down to San Diego for a day (monday) at LegoLand with her little...

    unexpected/unintended sudden braking- swaying and shaking

    If this happens with traction control turned off, then you likely have a mechanical issue. The challenge with things like this is being able to repeat the problem in a controlled way.

    Import used 2011 Leaf from US to Canada

    There is an imported Leaf for sale in the GTA, not being sold by a dealership. I helped him get DRLs working for the importing inspection. http://www.autotrader.ca/a/Nissan/LEAF/STONEY+CREEK/Ontario/19_7872195_/?showcpo=ShowCPO" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; no cold weather...

    "Pulsating" braking force

    I really do not think it is warped rotors. I have my energy screen on all the time and I am quite certain this is a regen issue. If the rotors were warped, I'd feel this pulsing brake force at other speeds, and it would be vibrating at highway speeds. It is as smooth as a baby's ass. I tried the...

    Mini-QC Rapid-Charger (RC) Project for LEAF QC Port

    I know some folks really detest armchair engineering (suggesting solutions without actually testing), but it is all we have for the moment. I think that the best place would be at the inverter's input, to add a splice so the inverter still gets power, and you can get something out as well. This...

    The silver itself is not 3d printed, it is cast (pouring hot liquid metal). They 3d print wax, then encase it in plaster, bake it to melt out the wax, and then pour in the silver. I am also not clear on mass production of the 7 signal pins, I'm sticking to soldering off-the-shelf pins onto...

    Mini-QC Rapid-Charger (RC) Project for LEAF QC Port

    Ok, I've updated the pins, however the cost jumped a bit, i think it because of the 1.5" splice zone. If that is really required, then we have to live with it. I made the walls thinner (75%) and hollowed out the pin a little bit. Pin is available to the public here...

    Mini-QC Rapid-Charger (RC) Project for LEAF QC Port

    The cable end of the pin was a design copy of what I used for the manually built pins. I measured with calipers the butt-splice I used. Digikey PN WM2973-ND The depth and wall thickness should be the same (for one side since it is for a pin, not a splice) This can be used with 2 kinds of...

    Easy Climate Control Fan-Only Solution - 5 cents, 5 mins

    I am more interested in which diesel heater you are using and where I can get one. (enviro stuff can be solved by using bio-diesel as it is carbon neutral) The coolant should circulate anytime the fan is on and the set temperature is above 18.0 C, but you can also try this: When your climate...
