Is this thread not titled "A peek at the Leaf's charger"? People ITT keep derailing this topic so far off topic it's become IMPOSSIBLE to sift through all 14 pages without taking a full lunch break to sift through all the OT replies about 6kW charging. Completely off-topic. No grey area. I'm new here and a new LEAF owner - but not new to the concepts behind the LEAF. I've been promoting the LEAF based on its technologies long before I even dreamed of owning one - late last year was when I learned about the LEAF, but just 3 weeks ago I finally found I qualified to lease one.
That said, I've been on the internet for over a decade, and I've seen my fair share of what makes a topic a headache to read through. This topic has devolved into that. I'm not politely going to ask to get back on topic... this thread has gone so far OT since the very first page it's a poster child for OT discussions.
If you want your own topic about 6kW charging, MAKE ONE so I can AVOID IT. I don't need nor want 6kW charging - charging levels don't need to MATHEMATICALLY DOUBLE to just get 6kW from a 3kW charger. It could be 4 or 5kW and it would still be a welcome upgrade.
Now. If some mod could politely split off the last 11 pages of off-topic banter about the 6kW concept, that would at least clean up this thread so those of us interested can get "a peek at the Leaf's Charger" instead of a long discussion about a pipe dream charger.
Sorry to sound like an ass here, but... WOW. What an unacceptable reply to someone (me) trying to get this thread back on topic.
edit: And thank you, Ingineer, for that awesome photo of the charger guts. Just the techno-pr0n I was looking for. (Though I am still curious about how the liquid-cooling system works!)
