Hi folks,
Had my 2013 "lizard" Leaf for 4 years, and love it. But I have an 8-bar 24kwh battery, and it's starting to not do the job for traveling around town (I live on a hill in Reno).
The car is in great condition, no problems with chassis or electrical, and my theory is that a replacement battery could give me 10 more years of life out of the car.
I'm looking at evridesllc.com, who have a battery upgrade service. I can get a 90% 40kwh battery for $13,200 including transportation there and back. They seem above board, but it's an enormous amount of money to drop, so I'm wondering:
* do folks on this forum think highly of the company? Do they do good work?
* are there other companies I should look at to get competing quotes?
* any other advice for a Leaf-lover thinking of getting a battery replacement? I noticed for example that someone found Leafspy wasn't working correctly: https://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic. ... es#p620811
Thanks!
