It's not the overall voltage by itself that's the problem. When the car regenerates at high current (you have 62 amps right there), it is normal...
As the name implies that only prolongs the life. It is not as good as new. @edthefox5 just replaced the battery he extended with the Prolong...
err, yeah sorry that's not clearer. I'll go edit the instructions now to hopefully make it clearer. Yes this is the correct process
Looking good. Once it sticks to a set voltage for a 4-6 hours then you can start discharging. Will you be using the Prolong Battery Discharger?
Found this at Battery University: Seems like this is precisely what Toyota is doing.
Once the pack is put back together running it on a Prolong charger overnight is a good way to balance the voltages of all modules in pack. OR...
A previous discussion: Inconsistent Hybrid battery readings | PriusChat
@Raytheeagle is somebody very experienced in the Prolong system.
I've reconditioned two hybrid batteries successfully with Prolong and individual module chargers. I keep modules only that have similar capacity,...
Thus far the focus is on fast service turnaround (24 hours),a report on the refreshed capacity of every NiMH module in your HEV battery with a %...
The top end balancing is key to the process;). If you don't get them stable at the top balancing, bad things happen when you drop voltage...
Hehe, that's what I figured. Don't you love it when you can justify your collection of junk? Thanks Abarnabe, now I understand your reasoning. I...
The 12v is reading around 12.20 I tried googling your other recommendations, do you mean a Prolong hybrid battery charger? the modules are reading...
Looking at Hybrid Automotive's site, Gen 1 charger is CO-P1 Prolong® Charger Only – Hybrid Automotive Gen 2 & 2 is CO-PR Prolong®...
Just finished replacing a bad module in my HV batt, and so far is working great. I've noticed the new block pair is consistently running about a...
I'd like to recondition them while out, but this is the part that is confusing. The prolong site mentions discharging the 1st time around to 0.8v...
The quick and dirty way to charge pack is put the car in drive, foot on brake, emergency brake on, floor the gas pedal... That's called a force...
thank you :)
Have you reassembled the pack yet? If not, be sure to apply the recommended torque on the 56 nuts that fasten the bus bars to the modules. Be...
In your shoes, I'd slap techstream on it and drive the car so that HV drops to 2 bars and ICE begins to charge it, check each module's voltage at...
