Hi Folks, We live in the mountains of western North Carolina, USA. Our house is at the foot of a mountain and easily accessible. Our neighbors are at the top of a rutted, dirt/gravel road that is quite steep and curvy. Our front-engine, front-wheel-drive Honda Fit can make it up there, but it is a b...

Hi PBUI19, Can this battery be charged at below freezing temperatures? Does it freeze where you are? Lithium Titanate batteries can be charged below freezing, will likely be on the market before the end of the year. Thanks and good health, Weogo [quote="pbui19"]I am so tempted to try out t...

I would love to see a big jump in battery life, capacity per pound/weight, use of easily available materials, faster charge times. An EV driving friend just retired last year from a career as an automotive engineer. He thinks we are approaching the limits of the laws of physics with currently availa...

Hi Folks, From the pictures it appears to be smaller inside than the I-MiEV. For me, the bigger volume is important. Any idea how much it weighs? The relatively light weight of the I-MiEV gives it a bit of a lower power draw going up and down the mountains that surround my house. (A LEAF weighs abou...

Hi JoeS, "even though it could provide much more power, I personally wouldn't want to draw more than about 100W out of an inverter hooked up to our i-MiEV 12v battery (the car in READY), especially nowadays as our OBC/dc-dc is proving to be iffy." Ah, I see the light. For the EV expo I'm g...

PV1, Good point about the watts pulled by the car in READY for four hours. Across the street from the event there's a free 240V charger at the Ingles grocery store that will be getting me home! Or I could spend the big bucks on Chademo. Nice to have options. Pbui19, How long is that jumper cable? Fo...

Hi Folks, Next month in Asheville there will be a Drive EV Day, in a parking lot with no AC power. I'm providing a small mixer, microphone, two-track interface and a couple self-powered speakers. The audio system will run off my 300W sine-wave inverter, connected to Maeve's 12V battery. At modest le...

On the shifter, past B, is C .
What's C for?
Ok, I found it online:
"the C-position for comfortable driving in the suburbs"

Hi Folks, I got an OpenEVSE Advanced Kit, assembled and installed it. Now, if needed, we can charge at better than three times the factory 120V charger speed. ) Went with this model because it can use 120V/240V. ) Can be set to 6A at 120V up to 40A at 240V. ) Small enough that it can go in the car f...

Hi Folks,

Zombie thread revival...

Our low beams are pretty low.

Has anybody in the US modified their headlights for remote control?

I found the manual adjustment instructions in this thread.
Is there a service bulletin online about this?

Thanks and good health, Weogo
