    Physical EV MODE button for 2012-2016 PHEV

    And higher, left to the steering wheel? Buttons are same.

    Physical EV MODE button for 2012-2016 PHEV

    I have added a physical button EV MODE (with "battery" symbol) for 2012-2016 PHEV (as from 2017 such button exists). Older PHEV Box versions can be upgraded to this version too. Now there is much more torque in EV MODE, so starting from lights is easier. ;) https://youtu.be/mVyEr-geVRc

    Video: EVSE with grid monitoring vs 2000W water kettle. Will

    Of course, a standard charger does not have such functionality. That charger uses SOP calculation (https://evtun.com/chargers/sop-health-of-your-home-grid.html) to find a proper grid monitoring/power reducement scheme. As I use it for one year (with some upgrades they send) - this works.

    Video: EVSE with grid monitoring vs 2000W water kettle. Will

    A test of Grid Monitoring used in Accelev https://www.facebook.com/EVSEChargerAccelev/ Car loads with a max speed of 16A, as the breaker is 16A. Then I start a water kettle (2000W) - once with Grid Monitoring at charger is on the second time - off. I restart charging, as charger needs 1 minute...

    AC EVSE charger J1772 from 3-phase power source. Help me plz

    Actual list of possible setups for Accelev: Source: 3F 400V using 2-phases 5.0 kW (11,5A per phase) Source: 3F 400V using 2-phases 6.0 kW (14,0A per phase) Source: 3F 400V using 3-phases 8.0 kW (11,5A per phase) Source: 3F 230V using 3-phases 8.0 kW (11,5A per phase) Norway special...

    My 2-phase charger is ready. 3.8 kW for PHEV, 4.8 kW Tesla

    huh, after crowdfunding by IndieGoGo I have finished 2-phase charger for Type1 cars. It works like this: it uses 2 phases with equal loading to deliver Type1 (single phase) power. It controls load on both phases, if you start something on any of them - it reduces power. See how it charges Tesla...

    Dual-phase 2x faster home charger - ready

    My schema of PHEV usage is: charge at night. To work, back (34km). Eat something (car charges 1 h, this adds 3.5 kW, so 20km added). Then I drive for example shopping or to parents etc. Without quick charger I need to use ICE... Why 20A - there are two version of this charger. First, that...

    61 km EV range? Strange.

    Today after night charging I have seen this on the dash: https://www.dropbox.com/s/e5fwwieblx7tvdv/61_km_range_Outlander_PHEV.jpg Usually I see 50-52 km and without any reason PHEV have presented 61 km... After 8 km of driving, it sunk to 51 and rapidly it switched it to 44 km, what is more...

    Dual-phase 2x faster home charger - ready

    This is my last project - 4.4-4.8kW 2-phase Type1 portable electric car charger at your home - without special 32A power lines... It uses 3phase power connection to generate one "superphase" and charge Type1 cars (PHEV, Leaf). 2 phases are loaded equally. It also has a special mode for battery...

    First test of 19,5 kWh battery in PHEV

    I have built prototype of higher capacity battery, by replacing factory modules of 8xL40 with my modules, built from chinese cheap cells (as this is prototype, I wanted to test if it works) of 19,5 kWh total installed inside factory battery (I have spare one - thx Anko :) ). Factory BMS handles...

    PHEV EV range in mountains - 58,4 km. Timelapse video.

    I have free time last afternoon, so I decided to do timelapse video to show range of PHEV. I live in mountains (this does not help with range) but still not bad - real EV range of Outlander PHEV can be 58,4 km (in mountains) and 60+ in flat area. This depends on driving style (moderate driving...

    Let's stop ICEheat, when cold...

    As for now all boxes use two way ICE stop - by inducted pikes of load and by surging current from internal temp thermistor to control a gap between internal temp measured and demanded. With the help of Anko I found following rules: 1. Start of ICE is demanded, when sum of influencing parameters...

    Let's go pure EV...

    Best to test. If you want to be a UK tester - no problem. I still need a lot of help. Repeatability of cars is now a biggest question. To be honest - all works in several cars. But I do not have any mass response as here I do not have many friends with PHEVs.

    Let's go pure EV...

    Here are taxes, VAT, and also still stupid situation, that I have bought 200 sets of plugs/sockets from Mitsu directly and they believe these plugs are made of gold. I try to agree direct deliveries from Sumitomo Japan, to have these (same) plugs cheaper. As I know, Vtech Tuning AU is fully...

    Any distributor will be welcome, after final tests. I hope, when I finish my PHEV ECU android flasher, there still will be some PHEV owners who will want it :)

    Anko - thx for the heat graph (PW). This explains a lot to me. It is so nice that when we work all together, we can improve our cars so much. I have updated my algo of heating, it seems to be much more complete now.

    Let's go pure EV...

    No, PHEV Box is not my PHEV ECU flashing mod. PHEV Box has no influence on lowest SOC permitted. It stays same, factory 30% or so. Slightly higher range (about 8% by my observations) is gained only because of "softer" applying current to motors, without rapid changes (except kick-down). Gain is...

    PHEV Box has no influence to power, so it should cost zero - seems legit :shock:

    Let's go pure EV...

    Plz wait a while, as I'm sending first batch of boxes to final testers (Anko for instance). In a week I hope it will be available at vtechtuning.eu but I don't want to deliver today something that is developed 5 days ago... Let it work for a while.
