    The 40KWH Battery Topic

    What you can do, for instance, is to change to a 30 kWh battery as long as you also change the matched VCM at the same time. It's not very hard. It's also possible to hack the communication between the BMS and the car. It is actually a lot of things you can do to get a different battery running...

    I made a transparent CAN bus bridge with logging, requesting input

    Nice project! I have upgraded my Leaf 24kwh 2014 with a 30 kwh battery. I was thinking about making a device like yours and change the battery id on the fly but fortunately I didn't have to. Your device could be very useful in the future if battery cells become cheap enough for it to be worth...

    The Aftermarket Traction Battery Thread

    I got a 2014 Leaf. There could be other issues with a 2012 model. Not sure if the 30 kwh VCM would have worked. Yes, no? I don't know. I don't think the extra connector for the battery heater would have been a deal breaker though. Probably just a can bus error code, but I'm guessing the car...

    whats the name of this connector? (PDM to/from car)

Anyways, he 3D prints this connection and sells it in combinantion with a tool he calls battery pack sniffer ( used to check helth of the battery back when the pack is...

    The Aftermarket Traction Battery Thread

    I actually got hold of keys from the same donor car as the battery and the vcm. You still have a problem because now you have some units, BCM for instance, that's using the old keys and VCM that's using the new. So unless you are planning to change all boxes related to Nissan immobilizer you...

    The Aftermarket Traction Battery Thread

    Allright, so I'm finally done. It was a little more work then I expected but that's what you get when you are an optimist. I changed the battery in my own garage and in hindsight I wish I had invested in better, taller jack stands. The car needs about 70 cm ground clearance, at least if you are...

    The Aftermarket Traction Battery Thread

    I have asked the guys in a different video. See comments from Jostein Sand: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHLddeIxxig&lc=z22uwha5rqq1xddxd04t1aokgrnp5y4kw0yjp1a0werwbk0h00410.1515217125752645 They confirmed that if you buy VCM and battery from same it should work. I have actually just bought...

    Maybe a 30 kwh battery in old Leaf

    You probably right, but It depends on what data you choose to use. For example, in the video at 9:20 it says average 3.4 mi/kwh and range 98 miles. 3.4*28 = 95,2.

    Interesting LeafSpy Results from a 2013 SL

    At 16% soc you should have at least 10% left before turtle. At least that's the way it worked on the old leaf.
