Re: Leaf Gen1 Charger Upgrade

How does one go about learning how to control CAN items? I'd love to learn how to control my Gen1 or Gen1 leaf chargers for an upcoming upgrade.

Re: VOLT/AMPERA inverter single controler dual IGBT drive

Thanks guys. Since I don't need the aux inverter I can ignore that part.

So the STM32 is for the main inverter with Johannes code? I'll need to find that next. Sorry for the questions, trying to make sure I can get all the bits sorted before I order something.

Re: VOLT/AMPERA inverter single controler dual IGBT drive

Thanks guys. I didn't realize that it uses a Lebowski controller. I'm only familiar with Arduino stuff so I might have some learning to do. I assume that the Damien version does not come pre-loaded? Thanks guys. If I can use my SparkEV inverter instead of the Leaf stuff I totally will. @Arber, yup, ...

Re: VOLT/AMPERA inverter single controler dual IGBT drive

Hey Martin, was this a trivial task if you don't use Wifi? I'm gathering data and I think this is the way to go for my build. I already have a SparkEV inverter in my car (configured for DC) and a Leaf motor on the shop floor. Where is the software located? :edit Found the github, but where do I go f...

Re: Leaf Gen 1 Inverter Board

This looks super clean. Is the intent to keep this CAN based for commands or will this have analog inputs for throttle/brake/direction?

Re: Removal of existing leaf board

Thanks. I got this Gen1 inverter as well as a Chevy Spark inverter to play with. Was going to convert one for DC control and the other for AC. Maybe this weekend I can get the Gen 1 apart and see if mine looks like what you all have.

Re: Removal of existing leaf board

Has anyone applied heat to remove the screws? I have a gen 1 inverter here and I'll try it out.
