    EVSE Pins and repair Parts no longer available

    I’ve been looking for the replacement power pins that get crimped on for the EVSE handle side for months and all are sold out. I can still find the car (inlet) side which is useless. I really don’t care about the brand or amperage rating but 16amp pins from a DUOSIDA would work, these used to...

    BMW I3 Are the newer REX models bulletproof?

    Just curious if the 2015 and newer i3's have all the defects cleared out? From folks I know the 2014's were flaming piles of garbage with fuel door flaps breaking, engine lights being on continuously, bearings, mounts and more failing. But now with i3's available at $9999 and up they are...

    Wisconsin converting EV tax into Economy car tax

    the republican Wisconsin legislators are once again making legislation to penalize hybrids, vehicles with start stop and plug ins; doubling or tripling the annual registration costs on these vehicles. The law started as a $150 up charge for the 5000 BEVs in Wisconsin but every day gets changed...

    20amp 110vac charging, anyone?

    I'm just curious if any manufacturer sold an EV that could use the full rate of a 20amp outlet. Everywhere I go, including gas stations, work and home have a minimum of a 20amp 110vac outlet, leaf and others should be able to draw 16amps at 110vac, why does no one do this? Thanx Ryan

    Mini battery range extender (adding more batteries)

    I have about 250 ahr of NiMH batteries enough to make a 13.2 volt or 14.4 volt battery. I am wondering if anyone has played with the absolute limits on the 12v system. I know on the volt a CEL occurs if battery volt exceeds 16.5 volts, the leaf I have no idea. Some creative use of diodes and...

    Now that you can buy Leaf Battery packs from a 3rd party....

    Now that there are at least 3 3rd party sources of Nissan Leaf & Chevy volt batteries Just curious how long it will take before someone tries to repurpose one? Sadly they are all used (no matter what the source says) but its a real start. The volt battery ala cart can be had for around $2000...

    2013 Nissan Leaf S - $20,855

    Just curious are there any "incentives" on a new 13 leaf you actually purchase, everything on cars shows a very low price but is assuming a lease situation (I would guess they take the tax credit(s) and give $2k or something) If I wait to the end of the year maybe then a few incentives :) leaf...

    What is the lowest price anyone has paid for a used EV?

    I am tossing around the idea of buying an $11k think EV (used), I have noticed though that the MIEV comes in around $14k new with incentives if messing around with a lease and they take the tax cred. Just curious how low you have seen the Leaf and Volts sell for. I recall one leaf with...

    Does DIY Cold Weather pack exist?

    I am looking at buying either a 011 Leaf $22k or 011 volt $25k The trouble with all the less expensive leafs is that they lack the cold weather package, being in Wisconsin this would likely cause issues. (what is the winter range on a non-cold weather leaf? 30miles 40miles?) On my existing...
