    Capacity Loss on 2011-2012 LEAFs

    I had lost my first bar two weeks ago at about 9000 miles and 15 months--saw it come back this morning. It was the first time temps in my garage dropped under 62 in three months. I had 242 gids after a 100% charge yesterday morning.

    Capacity Loss on 2011-2012 LEAFs

    Lost my first bar today, 15 months into a 39 month lease, just over 9000 miles. Has been over 100 degrees in Redlands, CA-- I park in the shade, have noticed 7 temp bars twice. The pack temp, according to the ELM app, has been 85-95 most of the last three weeks. Has been charged to 100% about...

    Solar charging the LEAF with no home system

    The goalzero site has reviews of the product. The system with 4 panels takes 2 days to fully charge, so four of these might provide the power needed. You would just need room for 16 panels, and $8,000, plus eventual battery replacement, to "save" 20-80 cents of electricity per day, or...

    Using clone ELM327 Bluetooth OBDII adapter with Leaf

    Yes, I guess the peculiarities of specific hardware combinations might be a help to all--something for the wiki? My phone is on its last legs, so I'll try the transmitter with a Galaxy III soon.

    Using clone ELM327 Bluetooth OBDII adapter with Leaf

    I wanted to report my experience. I purchased a BAFX Products (TM) - ELM 327 Bluetooth OBD2 scan tool from Amazon for $24 a month ago, and left it on my bench after taking it apart--couldn't tell at that time if I needed to re-solder any pins. I logged on today and noticed the rapid pace of...

    OpenEVSE - Open Source Charging Station

    With the help of Chris Howell I was able to install a L2 ESVE for under $400.00 and still can carry around my original L1 from the dealer--I'm leasing my Leaf, so I didn't want to alter the unit. I used to fool around with "bare bones" pc's and this project resembles that in frugality and...

    OpenEVSE - Open Source Charging Station

    Anyone interested in getting some J1772 cables from China? I was quoted a price of $70.50 for a plug with a 10 foot cable, but shipping is $85. If I get four, the shipping is $128. This is from Dostar, mentioned previously in this thread. Anyone try this?

    Capacity Loss on 2011-2012 LEAFs

    I confess I only got about a third through this thread, but has anyone calculated the energy cost of keeping the climate control on, say at 85F while it is plugged in? Surely cheaper than putting AC into a garage, just need a cheap exhaust fan and let the car cool its battery!
