Re: Gs450h inverter: can zombieverter VCU control boost converter



So you're getting 128 amps through the boost converter?

Any idea if it's the same inductor and igbt module as a gen 2 Prius?


Yes, think saw 125 A drawn on . Fitted with service/repair folks information that the Lexus was harder on the same slices as used in the Prius, around 100A.

Re: Using the Lexus GS450h V6 and EV transmission

[ I was working on the idea that with the transmission in neutral, the ICE would be driving both MG1 and MG2 at a faster speed than the throttle input signal and regen would occur ....]

Mg2 is connected to output, or driveshaft, the selection of low and high for something like 1.9, or 3.3 ratio ...

the hybrid as a get you home, or to a charger option has good merit, stops that deranged feeling.

From some Prius gen2, and gen3, tampering with added battery packs, The limit of 21 kw which is the limit of what the boost converter can transfer. With the Boost converter bypassed, hopefully your expertise in code massaging, to free up this potentual available power will come to fruition, in near ...

A question on the ZombieVerter please, that you may be able to help with.

I would like to use a Prius C transmission in a similar way to what you have done. (Here it is also called, Aqua ) and maybe Yaris.

sorry I did not answer this earlier, it appears that we must select the Spot Values we want to appear on the gauge page using the little check boxes, and I don't think it matters if we check the l or r column, it's actually pretty cool since it is dynamic and fully customizable

If you disconnect the earth off pot 2, as in a fault state, does it still work, I.e.respond to throttle input...as normal?

This is what I observed when checking. (Test at 30v HV)
And if no earth on pot 1, then appeared to run away,
I.e. to max speed at 30v ..
