I am waiting to buy or lease a Leaf eplus until I can buy a V2G or V2H charger at a reasonable price. Nissan says that they are using theirs in Japan but only seems to be trialing it elsewhere. https://insideevs.com/news/363304/nissan-teases-v2g-criticizes-tesla/ As DougWantsaLeaf pointed out...

@Nubo I use level 3 charger when I am in a rush to charge, otherwise would use my level 2 charger at home.

My nearest level 3 charger is 18 miles away and at an elevation of 4500 ft from my home. What happens if I charge a new Nissan Leaf fully and then ride down the hill? Will I lose all of the energy that I would normally gain from the regenerative system going down the hill? Is there a buffer...

The 7.6 Kw Solar Edge HD inverter can be wired to provide an EVSE directly from the inverter. In the evening, when there is no solar power, it will charge an EV at 7.6 kw 32 amps from the grid. During the day, if there is enough excess solar energy, it "boosts" the EV charging to 9.6 kw 40...

Turtled today again at 4 GIDs. I took it to cool spot and let all sensors cool <120F. Then drove hard again with ALL accessories and got back to average temp 120.4F. Does warranty get invalidated if 1 of 4 sensors is > 120F for 24h or only the average temp > 120F That is a big difference for...

I sent OBDII to last owner to try to get Ahr but he couldn't get it to pair with his iPhone. I arrived Sat and measured Ahr at 46.41. I took advice from PM and fully charged it then drained it until it died. Then lost 12 hrs before I realized that I could restart it with charge cables. Since...

I am new owner of 2011 Leaf purchased on 7/29/16. The previous owner never subscribed to Carwings and didn't ask to continue the EV connection service by the June 30th deadline. I called Leaf support (877-664-2738) today and was told that the hardware update would not be available until the...

Gunning (especislly up hills) then coasting then repeat, repeat. Got my average temp up to 128.5 before I recharged! After recharge, I will let it cool to average temp less than 120. I read that your warranty may be invalidated if above 120 fo 24 hrs.

Unfortunately no QC for this car

Trying to go from 9 to 8 bars as fast as possible. Many recommend draining battery as low as possible then recharge to 100%, repeat, repeat til 8 bars. I get to 4 Gids (from max 190), then it seems to just drain 12v rather than main. Can I get Gids less than 4 by leaving on ALL accessories til...

I am a newbie and this section on EVSE and Charging equipment is daunting with 1,609 Topics and 37,597 Posts and my electrical knowledge is basic. I just purchased a used 2011 Leaf (SL) with 9 bars and soon hope to reach 8 bars in time for warranty replacement battery. I also purchased a used...

It s a bit of a pain to call the service department. The main operator transferred me to service receptionist who put me on hold while she asked a service representative to look it up. They got back to me with a month and year but no day of the month. I asked for the day of the month and the...

I am looking to buy a used Leaf and have no problem finding or getting the VIN but some sellers are not sure of warranty expiration date. I know that I can call the service shop of my nearby dealer. Is there a URL where one can enter the VIN and get warranty info?

I am considering buying a Leaf that is about 700 milles away. It has a quick charge port. I don't find plug share to be very helpful since their high speed charging stations are mostly Tesla superchargers that don't work with Nissan's DCQC. CarStations seems to be a much better source of...

Another member suggested the following: Drive it hard (up hill with all accessories on) and not return home until I hit turtle (trial and error) then run heater until everything is dead, charge to 100% (in my hot garage) and do it again as many times as possible. (Will that harm the 12V?)...

Has anyone commercialized adding the Brusa or any other charger to a 2011 or 2012 ?

I am a newbie and have read many but not all battery capacity posts in this section of the forum. Here is my situation. Considering buying Leaf with 27K miles, 68 days short of its 5 yr anniversary with 9 bars. It did have the P3227 software upgrade. I can park it in my garage that routinely...

I am considering buying a used Leaf on Maui. It is 68 days short of its 5 yr anniversary and has 9 bars. Is there anyone on Maui who will test this Leaf for me and give me an estimate of its AHr? Please send me a private message. Aloha, Tom
