I have had a Leaf for almost 8 years.
I visit my brother 50 miles away. Once I saw a tire getting low and saw a screw in it.
I headed to a flat repair shop nearby (fortunately it was not a National Holiday).

Hi! I have one thing to add to this discussion.
I will spare you the saga, but I wound up
getting a friend to help me drag the Leaf
to the curb in front of my house.
It was so dead, I couldn't open the charge door
until I asked Google how to do it manually.
It was so dead, it would not fire...
PS another thought....

reverse-engineered....I imagine there should be documentation on
Combined Charging System DC fast charging.
Would it be possible to build a black box, a dongle,or an adapter
that plugs into the Chademo...
Hello veteran Leafers!
I took delivery of a 2013 Leaf S WITH Chademo and 6 KW charger
on MONDAY in Virginia. And had an adventure driving it back
to Northern NJ - 277 miles in in 60-mile increments.
I guess trying to get 84 miles to a charge (or 100!)
was optimistic for a new Leaf owner...
