Yes, this was my idea, and I've tested and confirmed it will work, however, the trick is finding an existing manufacturer of a 400v ~10kW charger that is isolated, affordable, and of reasonable quality. It will also have to fit, which is a problem with many air-cooled models. Water-cooling is doable, but more messy to install.Volusiano said:To be honest, it wasn't even my idea to begin with. I think it might have been Phil's (Ingineer) idea a while back when he was tossing around the idea of installing a third party 10KW charger in the front under the hood.
I've also verified that it is possible to charge the LEAF while it's in motion without extensive modifications, which opens up range extender possibilities. (both as in my Generator and auxiliary battery packs)
