Hi fellow i-MiEV owners.
Having owned a low-mileage Nissan LEAF for a few years, including swapping some weak cells and a dodgy BMS, I've decided to put a fresh upgraded (60kWh) battery pack into it, and having done that, to stop tinkering with it and instead just drive it.
But, I have too much of a liking to explore this technology to not want to have something in the garage to pull apart, tinker with and perhaps upgrade.
So, to this end, I have recently purchased a 2013 i-MiEV at a knock-down price. It's a great little vehicle, but like so many at this age, some of the cells are a bit rubbery, so I think a gut-and-repack upgrade is on the way.
These forums are brilliant sources of both information and inspiration. Thanks for accepting me as a member. Questions many I will have, but answers also I will find.
