    I got tired of people saying electric cars were expensive:

    So I made a video talking about the Leaf, of course, since I still have my 2011. Since 2014, with a wty pack, still have about 16kwhr. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rA2V52lIwYY If anyone wants to expand on particular bits, please add the time code to your comment like: "3:12 He forgot to...

    My Defrost / Staying Warm on minimum battery use in Winter. Video:

    I made a video with my staying warm / defrost strategy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnjr--CNL9k (Will edit this if I figure out how to use the youtube tag. Someone comment that if they know.) Here's an attempt to embed. Can't make that work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnjr--CNL9k...

    CR2032 fits the key fob

    I wrote it up here: http://rcbullock.blogspot.com/2015/12/nissan-leaf-key-fob-remote-battery-and.html Be nice to not have to replace it as often.

    Heat Accessories

    I found a couple I like. The Roadpro 180W mini-heater and the Amazon Basics heated cushion. Disclaimers and warnings and full writeup per usual: http://rcbullock.blogspot.com/2015/03/nissan-leaf-winter-heating-save-your.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; And yes, they do draw...

    App use with Leaf off?

    Apologies if this is covered. I looked a few mins and could not find it. Mine IIRC used to work well with the Leaf off. Now, it won't stay connected but killing the app can get a connection but it will eventually go flaky. Is this supposed to work? Seems like it used to work well. Same phone...

    A middle ground between 110V trickle charging and 240V L2:

    http://rcbullock.blogspot.com/2015/02/nissan-leaf-110v-charging-heres-middle.html I wrote this up today. It's about 40% faster than the OEM 110V EVSE solution and adds usability to the Leaf. I have not seen this mentioned as a sort of middle ground solution: 16A 110V charging and how to go...

    Are there no more free Blink stations?

    This was a surprise to me: Duration : 12:41:32 Total Fee : 30.48 This station was free when I used it on Sep 8th. I've been using it for 8 months. It's in United Airlines employee parking, via a long bus ride, so you really can't go move your car. The email from Blink said NOTHING about...

    Power reports 15-16A at 244-245V...is that available or use?

    I have a 2011 Leaf, so it should have the 3.3Khwr charger. Leaf Spy Pro says 15-16A at 244-245V. So is the Leaf using all that or that's what's available? If it's using it all that's a nice little bonus I guess. :) 3.3Kwhr (on board charger)/244V=13.5A IIRC it's a 300W overhead, but...

    2 bars lost at 8100 miles

    I was looking back at my Carfax for something else and figured out why specifically the two bar loss at 8100 miles. The *DEALER* who owned it for a YEAR at one point in it's life put about 100 (yes, 100!) miles on it in that time. 8 miles a month. I bet that's a big part of it. I've put over...

    Anyone have problems getting Blink Incard? Anyone got extra?

    I have asked them on original signup, and IIRC 2-3 times since then in 41 days. Still no card. Anyone happen to have an extra unregistered one by chance?

    Wanted: key fob for 2011 Leaf

    Only got one when I bought mine. Can't these be reprogrammed? I see them used here and there. Anyone got one to sell used if they can be reprogrammed? Someone had a wrecked Leaf IIRC that was selling a few things...

    Nissan Leaf Coolant: is it anything special?

    New owner here. :) I didn't see this anywhere after Google etc. Is there anything special about the coolant? Mine is slightly above 'min'...I'm also a bit puzzled why the overflow tank doesn't pull some back in because it's full but the main tank is min... It appears 'equivalent' is ok, but I...
