You'd own the battery outright.
.. and you would know the replacement price too !!

Much of your post is well reasoned, but neither Nissan nor any reputable replacement pack manufacturer is ever likely to use current Tesla+Panasonic cells in their packs, due to their flammability and the resulting liability.howardc64 said:In summary, following Tesla's world class battery design, a good aftermarket pack would need to
1 Source a good cell design. This is probably the hardest part. Tesla+Panasonic factories probably produce the best right now at the right size for density+cooling. They are probably not available...
I would agree, unlikely these cells can be sourced.edatoakrun said:neither Nissan nor any reputable replacement pack manufacturer is ever likely to use current Tesla+Panasonic cells in their packs, due to their flammability and the resulting liability.
I do think all EV LiON battery packs will be both higher capacity and ATM going forward. Low capacity battery cars depreciate too much to be competitive in the future and ATM will be needed to increase the life cycle of a even higher priced high capacity battery pack.edatoakrun said:IMO, LEAF packs offer superior performance because they do not require ATM.
Haha yeah, I agree, quite a bit of engineering involved So I guess best anyone can do is source high cap cells. This would beef up overall range and lifecycle but of course also cost more. So perhaps same 24kWhr capacity at lower end of the cost is all that is practical. All of this is only possible if someone figures out any computer interlinks between the pack and the car.edatoakrun said:But even if there were net benefits to ATM, adding it to an aftermarket pack design is highly impractical.

Looking forward to it.jsa061 said:...They confirmed that if you buy VCM and battery from same it should work.
I have actually just bought this combination myself and is waiting for delivery. It's gonna be a garage project DIY-style so it could take some time but I will report back to this thread when there is progress.
Me three! Keep us updated.bzalex said:Me too.

I have asked the guys in a different video. See comments from Jostein Sand: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHLddeIxxig&lc=z22uwha5rqq1xddxd04t1aokgrnp5y4kw0yjp1a0werwbk0h00410.1515217125752645
