Agreed. Our 2018 Gen2 Prius PHV still does 45 km (28 miles) on a full charge. It's done about 50,000 km (31,000 miles). Interestingly, after 40...
Hi black_jmyntrn, how are you going with your CHAdeMO upgrade? I've found a great little, hand-held unit to convert 3 phase, Type 2 AC to CHAdeMO...
Your 2017 PHV should be pretty similar to my 2018 PHV, and so the specs could well be similar. :) Is it possible to download a copy of what you...
PS: There are some useful thoughts about safety and DIY wiring of EV charging systems elsewhere on PriusChat, for example: Of course this...
Upgrade from 3.3kW to 6.6kW (or more?) Addition of a further charger in parallel to the in-built charger shouldn't need ECU details (as envisioned...
Yes. Could I/we encourage you to include this project in your tinkering with batteries and charging systems? It might be easier to install than...
Hi KevinNg, the answer to your original question is "yes" - it looks like you can easily convert the backseat to a bench for 3 people. Look at...
I imagine the additional charger would be "invisible" to the car so the sensors would only see and adjust for the existing charger and current. In...
The equivalent connectors in North and Central America appear to be NEMA connectors rated at 120V or 230V. (Plugshare shows these "dumb" power...
Hmmm, so we would need a "dumb" power supply. A Commando/Caravan socket can supply up to 32Amp, which at 240V provides 7.7kW. These are easy to...
Thank you, drizzle. The conversion looks simple and probably not too costly assuming a suitable second-hand backseat can be found in reasonable...
Would you mind posting the URL to that video, please?
There are other recent postings asking this exact same question, for example: I am also interested in to replacing the back seat to carry 3...
Thanks, Bob (bwilson4web), for graphically showing the dangers sustained currents while EV charging. Long term heat accumulation clearly has an...
If the owner agrees, then a manual switch somewhere convenient e.g. near the switchboard, and a suitable length of correctly sized cable out to...
Yes, interesting. If (... when ...) I replace the battery then I'd want to know: Is the new battery compatible e.g. is it "plug-and-play" (or a...
True but domestic dwellings often have a limited power supply, which has a low loading most of the time. I live in an almost 100 year old house...
It would depend on the type of fan. Many older fans just required power to their terminals and they'd run, which would bypass any electronics...
True, but domestic housing often has a limited power supply, but which has a low loading most of the day/night. It will be a while before most of...
Could it be as simple as connecting the fan via a manual switch to a suitable power source in the car i.e. bypass the automatic control?
