Separate names with a comma.
"Delta V" is the sudden rise in voltage that occurs as each cell reaches fully charged. The charger can detect this change in voltage and stop...
My neighbor's Citroen was not usable in the rain for about a year and a half. He had a broken windshield wiper arm and no replacement was...
Alan, My neighbor had a new Citroën when I was a teenager. I admit to using well tested solutions to problems. JeffD Posted via the PriusChat...
If it bothers you, install a custom set of air lift struts so that you can change your ride height when needed. It is a bit expensive to do. JeffD
There is a fuse panel to the left of the driver's left knee that has accessory power. I used a fuse tap (use Google to search for one) to power...
Cody, 6 volts is one volt per cell (assuming all 6 cells are balanced, not always the case) and fully discharging a cell to 0 volts will destroy...
Cody, The Prius battery has a limited cooling system using the cabin air and the modules in the center of the pack tend to be at a highed...
Guys, Prii last longer than that (if maintained). My 2004 went 12 years and 288k miles. It was still running strong, but due for a lot of...

Gen1, gen2 and Gen3 as well as one of the Gen4 models all use NiMh (Nickle Metal Hydride) battery cells (6 cells in series at 1.2 volts each). My...
Bisco, The issue on the Gen3 modules is that Toyota chose to push the HV battery to 130A peak currents and the increased heat generated makes...
The 28 battery modules are interchangeable but the Gen3 ones have a somewhat lower series resistance and can therefore handle slightly higher...
Many Toyota models tend to use oil as they age (100+ miles). JeffD .
1. Make sure that the modules are all close in terminal voltage so that you don't get high currents flowing when you put them in parallel. 2. It...
That can damage your charcoal canister $$ JeffD .
You could drive slower on the tollway and improve your MPG. JeffD
