    Tax Relief for Solar Investment Losses?

    It is not a Tesla roof. 42 Solarworld monocrystal SW 260's. They decided to replace the inverter with micro-inverters, too. Now I have a spare $3000 Fronius ig plus 10.0-1 inverter to find a home for. It's designed to work with 300-400VDC. Nissan Leaf battery is 360-400V. Hmmmm... :ugeek:

    Tax Relief for Solar Investment Losses?

    Sorry for bumping ancient history but wanted to add closure here. The class action lawsuit finally came through and I am back online with a new solar array. Hurray! I guess I'll need to update my profile pic again.

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

    This worked for me as well - had to wait 36 hours after the installation, though.

    Can/Will Dealership Read OBDII Details?

    My dealer most definitely can and did read the details of my battery on multiple visits - this included reading the cellpair voltages, the SOH, etc. They were very cautious, however, not to share any of that information (they want to keep their jobs).

    Thump/popping in wheel/axle area

    I had this same symptom. Turned out to be something much worse than a CV joint. Glad I was under warranty.

    Which Carwings App should I get for my new Samsung smart phone

    Thanks! i think I must have tapped every other spot on the screen except that.

    Which Carwings App should I get for my new Samsung smart phone

    Dumb question. How do you get the app to request an update? I can start charging and Climate Control but cannot figure out how to get it to update the battery status.

    Active EV-CAN sampling: cell voltages, pack temperatures...

    I am using the LPC 1768 mbed. I chose this since it had two canbus tranceivers so i could monitor both carcan and evcan. More details at the mbed site (including the source code): https://developer.mbed.org/users/TickTock/code/CANary/ You can set up your own account, branch the code, make your...

    Tax Relief for Solar Investment Losses?

    I entered a Class Action lawsuit to get the system replaced. Although the original companies are bankrupt, they had purchased insurance to cover warranty claims and that insurance company is still solvent and needs to honor the terms of the insurance. Lawyers seem to think it is a slam dunk so...

    Tax Relief for Solar Investment Losses?

    Yup. That's the one. For a while, before the bankruptcy they were paying me monthly to keep it turned off until they finished the investigation. Eventually that stopped. I turned it back on but added another $1500 cost to install a thermal monitoring system to alert me if any hot spots...

    Lizard Pack Holding Up

    I would agree on the wall measurement being most reliable except I don't know how much balancing impacts the draw. I see a fair amount of variation on that, too, and suspect balancing may be playing a role. I got 3% by taking (23.7/.92)/(25/.94) but I think a linear trend is probably more...

    Lizard Pack Holding Up

    Quite right. I do have a swamp cooler now in my garage so not a perfect experiment. However, I really don't think that is a significant contributor since I had that cooler in last summer, too, and didn't really see any slow in the decay rate. Also, I always charged using an end timer to end...

    Lizard Pack Holding Up

    Yeah. Gathering much more data but didn't want to clutter the graph. My new pack was reading 66.14Ah, 100%SOH, about 102Hx (this bounced around a bit) and it took 25kWh from the wall to bring it from turtle to full charge (94%, 284 gids). i don't have this data on the old pack unfortunately...

    Lizard Pack Holding Up

    So I've had my new Lizard pack installed for 8 months now and it has seen one full Phoenix summer (from February to now) and am happy to say that it is definitely holding up better than the original. I received my Leaf on May 31, 2011. By October 1st of the same year my gids dropped from the...

    Hacking the VSP Box (Noise Maker)

    Very cool. Nice work! Is one of the wires into the VSP a speed indicator or does CANbus go there and it just snoops? Was the ROM socketed or did you have to unsolder it? Be interesting to try programming a new ROM with a minor tweak to see if there is a checksum protection. Don't know why...

    Tax Relief for Solar Investment Losses?

    Long story short, the supplier of my solar panels (OPEN Energy/Applied Solar) has gone bankrupt. Meanwhile the famous Arizona heat has damaged my 11KW array beyond repair. It is a systemic problem - all 320 individual panels have opens below the glass resulting in low or no output. I took one...

    Well, now I'm certain that the VSP is useless!

    Not so weird. The request has come up at least a dozen times already with various flavors. The two most popular/common requests are the Jetson sounds and the Harley sound(would probably need to upgrade the speaker and amplifier for the Harley :lol: ). It really wouldn't be that hard - you can...
