I believe the following PDF of the 2017 NEC is allowed/OK to use (since it is NOT the current 2020 edition, and my understanding is old versions lose their full copyright protection once a new version is published): https://www.tooltexas.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/2017-NEC-Code-2.pdf For...

The current Level 1/Level 2 EVSE supplied with the US Nissan Leaf fully complies with the current NEC, I believe. Do ANY of the "EVSE Upgrade" Nissan EVSEs similarly fully comply? Does anyone want to discuss the "pros and cons" of the safety aspects of NEC compliance for EVSEs?

MikeinPA: From "has anyone actually paid for an out of warranty battery replacement?": 295B0-9RB9E - Battery Assy Main - $4588.98

Yes, without question if total cost is $8,000.00 -- but NOT a penny more! But I'll be happy/satisfied with my 24kWh recently for $6405.18 (which includes $582.59 TN sales tax)...

Initially I assumed the OP had a 24kWh pack from the post details, but I was probably wrong. When Calileaf wrote s/he had an SE s/he probably meant not an S but either an SV or SL, both of which had 30kWh battery packs (the S had a 24kWh pack). These battery packs have 8 yr/100,000 mile...

CaliLeaf: What are all the part nos of parts used for your battery pack replacement? That should be very revealing. For example, a 40kWh pack even requires a different set of covers than the 24kWh pack, I think. They should have provided this information on your invoice.

To all with high quotes: Try again but this time ask specifically for battery pack 295B0-9RB9E (w/o CW) or 295B0-9RB9D (w/ CW), which ever is appropriate for your Leaf.

If it is the stiff AWG 6 wiring it could be difficult if the box is on the "small" side and the receptacle is on the "large" side and the excess wiring in the box is too little (or too much even). Some 14-50R receptacle designs are good heavy duty quality, but can be harder to install or harder...

Dala: I was under the mistaken impression that the only re-wiring necessary was under the dash -- away from high voltage. If I recall correctly the dash rewiring is only for the 2011-12 Leafs -- please say if that is not correct.

mux: My main objection was the external placement of the bridge device as opposed to internally under the dash, if I'm understanding the image correctly, so firstly there is much more concern about adequate protection from weather. Also secondly the "average Leaf owner" (i.e. not living near...

nlspace: I'm suggesting that he needs to work on providing a lot more detail (atogether with pros and cons analysis) if he wants people like myself to even begin considering this particular bridge approach to upgrading.

Dala: What kind of impression do you think your previous post is likely to make on the average Leaf owner who is thinking about some kind of battery pack upgrade -- positive or negative?

I can say that I have successfully charged a 2011 Leaf multiple times using a 2018 Nissan EVSE plugged into a 14-50R outlet on a dedicated 50a circuit protected by a 50a GFCI breaker without the breaker tripping even once. I believe most outlets will allow you to return a GFCI breaker within a...

I think the original 2011-12 non-CW battery pack part no (what I replaced) is 295B0-3NA7A and the current price for that part is typical of that at NissanPartsDeal.com which is $7691.00 vs their 295B0-9RB9E (what was my replacement) price which is $4739.82 (although my dealer only charged...

DrR: When it recently became necessary to frequently charge twice (or more) daily and there were local destinations that I could barely get there and back, it was clear that I needed a battery pack replacement -- and 24kWh has been sufficient for at least 8 years. Battery capacity bars were now...

My 24 kWh battery pack was replaced today (Wed) for an additional (mostly labor) cost of $968.87. Took ~4 hrs (plus some time for charging pack so I could drive back home). I don't have Leaf Spy capability to evaluate pack after charging 100% when I arrived home.

powersurge: The 2011-2012 24kWh Leafs require some extra parts that the later 24kWh Leafs don't (for which my dealership charged me ~$350 -- probably cheaper buying these directly?) . But the $4588.98 for the battery pack itself seems to be a competitive price. I will soon have some labor...

Perhaps this is "old news" -- but it is new to me. It appears that new 24kWh, 30kWh, and 40kWh battery packs are now available for purchase at some online parts outlets (like www.nissanpartsdeal.com (to name one) w/ the following info): 24kWh w/o CW: 295B0-9RB9E $4739.82 24kWh w/ CW...

mmmike: Yes. One curious thing was it seemed that I could have kept the old battery pack for $1000 (core charge). While searching for what the parts were that I paid for, I noticed for the first time that the Battery Pack seems to now be available at all the online Nissan Leaf parts stores for...

Yes, for 2011 Leaf SL w/ 7 bars remaining and ~73,000 miles.
