Not a bad way to celebrate turning 100k :) [ATTACH] If only I got to drive the wife's v3 more ;) [ATTACH]
Its pretty barbaric by today's standards, but it was amazing to watch it all happening at the time.
In general adding a plug-in battery to the Prius is pretty complex. A lot of work was done on this by DIYers back in the '05-'7ish time frame....
Finally made it :) Celebrating by trying to move up the Gen 2 top 10 MPG list, 60.2mpg @ 409 miles! Had it all planned out. Fueled up 10.8 gal...
If anyone that regularly sees this issue has a way to monitor the HV battery voltage, it would be very interesting to see if these events seem to...
There's also a mention of the lower limit perhaps being ~200V and of the "dropping SOC while charging" phenomena that seems to match some of the...
My guess is that you may be encountering what's been called SOC Drift, in this case brought on by a weak battery. As mentioned above, SOC is...
At that price its pretty hard to beat, but still would be a good idea to get the codes. Battery problem could be masking other expensive issues....
Not an expert by any means, but I believe you are much more likely to get this kind of compensation when the other party is at fault. Their...
I think you're correct on both counts. Coming also from a Gen 2, the drivers door only smart key sensor is a bit of a bummer on the v3....
We like our new "v" a lot. It certainly addresses the OPs center console concerns, and adds a lot more cargo room for that BMX. It is more...
We have a Yakima rack and rooftop box we use on occasion with our Gen 2 to roughly double cargo capacity. Good solution for those rare times when...
Added Prius to graph. Agreed CB, if PiP and regular Prius are same price the PiP wins every time. If PiP is more expensive, its hard to make up...
BTW, here is the data behind the claims above. This is calculated from the ANL D3 Database numbers. The costs themselves are optimistic, because...
IMHO the OPs result looks pretty reasonable. Without the tax credit, the Volt is expensive. PiPs have been about the same price as a regular...
Awesome project, can't wait to see more :)
One more thought, how's your 12V battery?
Not an expert by any means, but I would maybe look for a connection problem in the monitor / controller wiring? 16.1V per block is still only...
Your loaded 12V reading of 11.5 V seems pretty low, 12V battery might be the place to start. Given that you're right up against the warranty...
IMHO, this is true but only half the story. My understanding is that most HOV lanes were implemented as part of various cities efforts to deal...
