I'll have to take to an electrician, but this idea worries me as the 10-30 dryer plug I have (pre-1996 home) has two 120V hots and a neutral - no ground. If the leaf were charging on the same circuit and used the neutral as ground (the neutral should be grounded at the panel, so no problem as...

Thank you for the replies - this has been helpful. I checked the back of the brick, and there is a sticker specifying new specs: INPUT VOLTAGE AUTO-ADJUST 120V 12A - 208/240V 16A - 60HZ So I should be set for home level 2 charging, I'll just need to figure out whether I want to use my existing...

I bought a used 2011 LEAF last week. It appears that the provided Nissan EVSE has been modified so that it ends with an L6-30 or L6-20 and included an adapter to a standard 120V outlet plug. So far charging from 120V has been no problem. Is there any way I can tell exactly what modification was...

That sounds analogous to my experience with having a heat pump water heater (in terms of efficiency at least - not sure that range anxiety has a water heater parallel). The temps around here rarely gets below freezing. In a cold year we may have one or two light frosts. So I'd probably do...

How did you get the vehicle from SF Bay area to Colorado? I'm about 300 miles from SF, so it could be somewhat of an "adventure" to get it home. Maybe I could use some combination of driving, charging, driving, and AAA towing. I'm thankful for the suggestions alternative outlets for purchase...

Do you have any pointers or ideas? I've been monitoring the market near me for almost a month and haven't seen a ton of better deals. Also, this would end up being about $9k.

Ah, I see now that I misread cwerdna's post. Thanks for the clarification. Too bad that feature was discontinued, it seems like it would be a useful option for many.

It's at a used car dealer, they were asking $10,000. After some negotiating they agreed to $10,000 out the door, including registration. I think that made the sale price just about $9,100. They've since dropped the on-line listing to $9,500, but I doubt they'd lower their offer to me. They...

This is my first post, and even after reading many threads and attempting to access the wiki, I'm still not 100% clear on how to assess the health of a leafs battery using leaf spy. While I don't have a leaf yet, I'm certain enough that I will, the point that I purchased an OBDII Bluetooth...
