    SoH dropping fast

    After a quick search, I was unable to find it. Does anyone know the magic SoH number equal to 8 bars?

    SoH dropping fast

    Interesting... In winter, my SoH climbed by 1.5% points, and now that we're seeing 80 degree+ days, It's back down to 78% and I'm @10 bars now. I have 12 months and 21 days left under warranty... Looks unlikely that my SoH will drop fast enough to qualify for replacement.

    Share Your Home Electrification/Efficiency Improvements

    I'm currently collecting used 18650 lithium cells from our hospital to build a power wall. I have one pack built for 1Kwh, and as more of our AEDs and laptops are sapped out through the year, I will collect and harvest more cells to ideally have 10-15kwh battery backup at the house. Based on...

    Love and Hate about our new Leaf 2018

    Not sure how compatible your 2018 is with some of these mods, but I had many similar complaints about my 2014 SL. Horns: I quickly ordered and installed Hella SharpTones. MUCH improved. Charge Timer: I use the one on my Siemens Versicharge Lighted Window Switches: There is a thread on...

    I have a Leaf 2 what is the cream coloured switch on the roof liner?

    Post a picture of the button you're talking about.

    Heated steering wheel cuts out

    Thanks all. I'm glad this isn't something wrong with it.

    Heated steering wheel cuts out

    Especially when they could have used the same switches as the heated seats

    Heated steering wheel cuts out

    I'm not sure this is a problem, or just how it's designed. My heated steering wheel gets very hot, then cuts out. It gets very cold and seems to take a long time before it heats again. Turning it off and then on again does not speed up the "reheat" or second cycle of heating. I commute 20...

    Nissan Dealer Says He Wants to Buy my 2015 LEAF

    That is some BS to get you in the door. "UP TO"... meaning not gonna get that. Car dealers are smarmy tricksters. Since you're retired and have time on your hand, you should check it out, waste their time, and report back on your findings. :lol:

    Leaf rides better than Tesla Model 3

    The cup of liquid is fine to have a visual representation, but the acceleration and breaking forces could have a huge impact of how much spills out. The data from vibration monitoring would be the only true measure. It also doesn't include any dampening provided by the seat.

    Should I buy this used Nissan Leaf?

    I would pass. I would want more bars, and quick charge.

    just bought my first EV, a 2017 Leaf SL

    Why not, because the internet will get full? How many "what do you think of the JuiceBox" threads are there :lol: There is no way to keep an entire forum tidy and without redundant threads.

    Juicebox Pro 40: Feedback

    A quick search of the forum may yield more results than starting a new thread. I can think of any EVSE that has been more widely discussed on this board.

    How to set that *(% clock

    :lol: :lol: :lol: at this whole thread. I had a hell of a time figuring out how to do it on my 2014 SL. Manual seems to hide it with no page difference, only to direct you to instructions that don't work if you have NAV. It only took me an hour to get it.

    Resale value for used LEAF w/a new battery

    FWIW, I have an infant in the back seat and it's been no problem for me and my wife up front. However, I'm the taller of us at 5'5". Maybe we can get away with it more easily, but I've had taller folks ride up front and in back with no issues. I really like how far the rear doors open to get...

    How do you charge/store your phone in your leaf?

    I place my iPhone in the flat tray behind the cup holders. I have a 2-USB plug adapter in the outlet under the radio. I typically leave a charging cable there, and plug in my phone when I drive. It gets coiled up and put in a cup holder when not being used. With my case, it's to large for...

    I think I found my car, advice please!

    Price? Also, check the in-service date so you know when the battery warranty will expire. To give you a benchmark, I purchased a CPO '14 SL with premium ~34k miles on it 12 bars for $11k before tax/ title. I knew that 12th bar was gonna drop any day based on my research. It did, about 2...

    Blind spot warning

    I've been doing this for years now and first heard of it on Car Talk. After 2-3 days of driving with them in that position, it becomes natural. @tesleaf - What is your budget shoping for a Leaf? In April, I found a '14 SL with Premium for under 12k. Its a lot of car for that kind of money...
