I thought that the batteries were going to be better in terms of heat management? I have no source for this notion.

Have the 2014 Leaf specs released already ?
But based on the Nissan communications to the small group in August 2013 in Phoenix, the "Hot" battery chemistry is still undergoing testing and they were unsure as to whether it would be used in all future LEAFs or not. Likely it won't be included in all 2014 LEAFs due to timing.gsleaf said:goaliepride said:Canardian said:The 2014 SL is identical with the 2013 SL.

If tests confirm that the new cells degrade at no more than the standard rate, even at high temperatures, the company hopes to have battery packs using those cells available next April.

If 30% is larger than the $1000 limit you are spending way too much on your charge station and installation. You can buy an EVSE for as little as $500. The cost of installation depends on the details of your house electrical system. But even $1000 ought to cover a difficult setup. If your electrical panel is located in the garage a few hundred dollars may be all it takes.rgcam said:Thanks, I just took a quick look and it seems that 30% or $1000 is the limit for "personal" equipment. And you have to use the smaller value.
"IRS Form 8911 Instructions...For property of a character not subject to an allowance for depreciation placed in service at your main home (personal use property), the credit for all property placed in service at your main home is generally the smaller of 30% of the property’s cost or $1,000."
