Re: [EVDL] Curtis WinVCL Software and OS download
You will NOT find Curtis VCL available as a download, as it is only available to OEM and closely guarded. The only way to solve your problem which I have done with many others is to re-flash the 1238 with the latest OS which removes all VC and allows you to reprogram to your needs. without any VCL limitations.

Re: [EVDL] What is the expected lifetime of used electric car batteries in a battery farm?
I have found that Li-ion batteries that have been used vary depending on the car salvaged from. The LEAF battery has the highest failure rate and shortest life span. When buying used there is the possibility that they have been abused or shorted. Afterwards the voltage will rise back to what looks normal but the battery cell is a goner and will not take a good charge above 3.7vdc per cell. Volt, BMW Bosch and Ford Focus seem to be the best. Volt is the easiest to work with, but modules made before 2015 is not recommended. -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/What-is-the-expected-lifetime-of-used-electric-car-batteries-in-a-battery-farm-tp4686039p4686056.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Read EVAngel's EV News at http://evdl.org/evln/ Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)

Re: [EVDL] Ford Focus EV battery for conversion?
Only if you keep the Leaf modules intact. Most conversions will need the modules disassembled in order to install modules to specific areas available. Wires to the cells for the BMS will have to be cut and spliced for the BMS connection with HV wires of small gauge running all over the conversion. The conversions I have worked on done by others was a nightmare when re deploying all the BMS wires and connections. Volt uses single plug for 12 cells. Real easy and neat. -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/Ford-Focus-EV-battery-for-conversion-tp4684830p4684857.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Read EVAngel's EV News at http://evdl.org/evln/ Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
Re: [EVDL] Ford Focus EV battery for conversion?
I have done many conversions using the Focus, as well as Leaf, Volt and Bosch (13,16,Fiat500e) My favorite is the Volt since the module is 48vdc and a socket for the BMS. Focus is good also as it comes in a 16vdc module. Bosch seems to be the highest quality and comes in 48vdc modules with BMS plug. The Leaf is the worst and isn't recommended. Used cells are degraded much more than the others I have listed and difficult to install as they need serious compressing. No BMS socket, so each of the 2 cells on a module must be wired directly to cell. I sell and prefer new cells to avoid the degradation you will find in ALL junk yard batteries. -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/Ford-Focus-EV-battery-for-conversion-tp4684830p4684831.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Read EVAngel's EV News at http://evdl.org/evln/ Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)

The total charge of 4.2vdc is not going to reduce the life span of the batteries unless left at that voltage for a long period of charge.

Re: [EVDL] How to find the true state of a Leaf battery pack.
The main thing to be concerned about when buying used junk batteries, is that a lot of them could have been from crash tests or factory rejects which have the batteries shorted by Nissan engineers. As a result of the shorting the batteries are worthless. I have had many customers send me battery packs from different junkies to disassemble for them, they lost a lot of money as a result. The junkie isn't going to refund. Reversal on your credit card wont work unless you have had it shipped back, then you are on the "no sell" list that junkies subscribe to. You get what you pay for.

Re: [EVDL] Time for battery change
I would suggest and think it would be advisable to go with the Li-ion if you plan on keeping your car. Additionally, a longer range is achievable, but may be more costly than lead acid. For a Li-ion 17kw pack designed for Volt, your are looking at about $4k. For a 24kw pack designed for the Leaf or Focus, you are looking at about $5k. With proper care you wont be replacing any of these in 5 years or less like lead acid. My experience with Chinese phosphate is not good, failures are unpredictable. Maybe that's why most new electric cars don't use the Chinese batteries. LG chemical seems to be the leader in the Li-ion field and provides cells to most EV manufacturers, except Tesla. Do a comparison of the costs and amortize it over the years you plan on driving the car. Having the Li-ion aboard when selling is a big time plus and will achieve a higher selling price. Lots of luck. -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/Time-for-battery-change-tp4674585p4674586.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)

Re: [EVDL] VW conversion motor needed
In my experience converting a VW or similar car, when using a AC motor, best advice is to keep the tranny and go clutch less using 3rd gear only.

Also, best to put the regeneration on the brake pedal and not the accelerator during pedal off.

Re: [EVDL] Lightobject meter experience
Using a meter to turn off a charger at a pre-programmed voltage can be very risky. A BMS is designed to perform this function, but turns off the charger when a single cell reaches the pre-programmed voltage, after permitting all cells to achieve the same voltage by shunting. It also protects against over dis-discharge. A single meter cannot perform these tasks in anyway shape or form. The SOC meter provides all the information concerning usage and is VERY accurate and programmable. All American electric production cars use very sophisticated BMS systems to achieve longevity due to a mandatory 8-year 100k mile warranty required in CA. Don't risk a expensive Li-ion battery pack by relying on a meter to shutoff the charger at a set voltage. Could be used as a backup if desired. If we learn from the big guns on how they do it, we will be on the right track and prevent a disaster that too many can attest to. My 2-cents worth. -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/Lightobject-meter-experience-tp4672073p4672079.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)

This is not politics, right or left, its the American way, or at least it should be. -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/HPEVS-selling-in-Russia-tacky-tp4670668p4670676.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
[EVDL] HPEVS selling in Russia, tacky.
A internet list is showing that Brian Seymore at HPEVS is selling to dealers in Russia i.e. Phone: (495) 984-96-19 website: www.ecomotors.ru When we are trying to hurt Russia financially for killing people, HPEVS is reported to be selling to the Russian dealer. Is this a good or bad thing? I think it is something to be ashamed of. -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/HPEVS-selling-in-Russia-tacky-tp4670668.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
