Canada - stinking cold winter coming

Pkarza, I am a bit late but through the image from Tony, I installed pads and it works well : http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=15673" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (mod section)

Ok, it sounds like you're getting a GCFI (Ground Current Fault Interrupt). This is fairly common.

My suggestion does not involve the EVSE, since that isn't going to warm the battery much. Plus, just like a "block heater", it will work on those GCFI plugs and keep the battery at whatever temperature you have the thermostat set at. These silicone pads will just stick to the bottom of the battery and plug into 120 volts:

you linked to the non sticky version, I think you meant to link to

Is the 180W version (6" by 12") enough to heat the pack? I assume you'd want the "for metal" version not the "for plastic" version.

180 watts could be enough but the fact of heating from one central point, I am not convinced that the cells would be heated evenly
