    Leaf EVSE modified

    Hello my Leaf lease is going to be up in May. I had the Leaf OEM EVSE charger cable modified to L2 (240v). I really don't want to give this modified cable back to Nissan. So my question is, will the modified EVSE work with GM's Bolt or Nissan's 2018 redesigned Leaf? Thank you for taking the...

    window film okay for lease?

    Hi all my wife is expecting our second child. She's driving a leased 2014 leaf, and the lease is due in May 2017. Question: If we tint our leased leaf, do we need to take them off when we return it? Thanks in advance for responding.

    Dent my wheel, pls help

    Thank you all for your help. It turns out that I don't need a new rim. I took it over to Discount Tires and they said the dent is just cosmetic and that as long as air is not leaking, I don't need to replace or repair it. Thanks all who helped. :P

    Dent my wheel, pls help

    Hi everyone, I ran over a curb on my wife's 2014 Leaf S, and now the steel wheel is bent. The tire is not leaking any air, but I've been told to get it repaired or replaced. Repair shops are quoting me over $135 to repair the steel rim, and it'll take a couple days (3-5 days). Is there an...

    Why I'm not generating full capacity?

    Oh I don't know the angle of my panels, but they follow the roofline and facing sun all day (majority of the day). Good to know that I'll get at least close to 5.4kw during the summer. I"m just hoping my next month's electricity is offset by the panels (I just put up my Christmas lights this...

    Why I'm not generating full capacity?

    Thanks Neil. I'm using a single inverter (Sunnyboy 5000tl), but on two strands with 9 panels tied to each (total of 18 panels). Nope, it's sunny without a clouds in San Diego all weekend.

    Why I'm not generating full capacity?

    Hello all. New to solar so this may be a dumb question. I finally got my LG 300's installed last week and am finally producing my own electricity! Question, my system is rated to be 5.4kwh but I'm finding that at peak times of the day I'm only generating 4.3 kwh? why is this? Thanks for all...

    file a compliant together-Free to Charge does not work

    no point in arguing with Nissan customer service. I leased the leaf with the belief that I would be eligible for the no charge gimmick. Fine print, only available if you buy in participating cities, doesn't matter if you live and work in the city that you participate. Nissan's gimmick is just...

    Microinvertors vs. Single invertors, what's the difference?

    Yes, but I'm not planning on staying past 10 years in my current home.

    Microinvertors vs. Single invertors, what's the difference?

    Crap, looks like the installer didn't connect the PV correctly, thus the fire. I'm going with the SMA sunny boy 500tl single invertor for my 5.4kw system. The costs of the microinvertors doesn't outweigh the risks of single invertors :).

    SolarWorld or LG Panels which one?

    Hello everyone. I have a chance to get either the SolarWorld 275 watt mono panels or LG 275 watt mono panels for the same price installed on my roof. Which one would you get and why? Thanks again for your input and expertise.
