If you had no choice, I guess you'll have to use regen. That 1 mile difference is not going to break your bank. I think I would rather go the...
It's Prius Plug-in (PPI). But I have no problem with PiP. I'm flexible, unlike you.
I don't think you understand my point. Regen is never good but we use it if we had to. The way Prius works, it takes stored energy (gas or...
if you put the Prius in N and the gliding process increase your speed, that could damage the MG1 by over revving. I never let the Prius increase...
Whether you're driving an PPI or standard Prius, regen is never good. We only use it if we had to. As I said earlier, Regen could never...
Your two choices are only 1 miles difference. This morning, I made a 28 mile round trip and at one point, I glided an entire mile in neutral. I...
Yes, I should have said "some of the energy will be wasted" 'B' does regen at the same time. I forgot about that. But general point is still...
Try both routes and see which one require less braking (regen). 'B' is even worse than 'D'+braking. In 'B', no energy is re-capture 800' drop...
Here's my take on general driving technique. Never do regen if you don't have to. Regen will never re-capable 100% of the energy spent moving the...
Thanks for the info you provided. I got the following from wiki which explains things better than I could. I believe that laws are there for a...
The concept sounds simple but I don't think it is. If you put two batteries in parallel, you'll need some sort of safety circuitry to protect the...
Keep this in mind. ICE is NOT very efficient when you run it at low RPM. To see what your RPM is, you probably will have to get a Scan Gauge....
Can you tell me how I could "Ignore" you. Thank you.
Let me re-phrase then. PPI isn't for a lot of people, not just me. That's why they ended up buying Prii instead. I think it's ok to generalize...
You could google for the exact numbers. The general rule is that the ICE is least efficient when it's running at low RPM. To get max MPG, this...
Yes, I do realize that PPI has a market, even though it's a small one. If some of you could "steal" electricity from others doing it everyday. I...
If the government took the tax money and provided no services, then I would agree with you about the government "stealing" your money and now they...
I saw a few videos on youtube about NG cars. The ones that I saw, they were gas cars with conversion kits that allow the drivers to switch back...
Try getting one of those plastic tupperware container, the big ones, with air tight covers. Put your gym bag in there. Also, put the container on...
Here's an article explaining why the PPI's ICE would need to kick on. Comparing to the Volt, PPI's battery and the traction motor are much...
