Re: Type 2 to CHAdeMO Converter/Charger?

Can you get more into detail how you have implemented this with your charger here? https://openinverter.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=13250#p13250 The regular stm32 OpenInverter board use a esp8266 or esp32 connected directly to the board. With this you could use wifi and configure the speed. A sec...

Re: Type 2 to CHAdeMO Converter/Charger?

I built a charger like this for the Previa in 2020 from a Prius gen3 inverter. ...... But do I recommend it? No. If I needed a high power AC charger I'd get the OEM component from a Tesla, VW, MG or something else. You save a lot of time and get a way more reliable end product. My EMW charger was n...

Re: Type 2 to CHAdeMO Converter/Charger?

There are also 11kW public chargers, and drawing 22kW from them could blow the fuse. Means: evaluating the PWM makes sense. And: There are public chargers with fix cable and plug. Means: Having a type 2 socket in the charger gives more flexibility. I just tested one EVSE limited to 10kW but it had ...

I am working on this project for many months. I hope to release a full build documentation on this in the next months. The part you seem to be struggling with is by far the most simple one. You want 22kW power from a type2 socket you can in general find on the streets. Nothing more simple then that...

Re: Outlander VCU - Rear inverter, Charger and BMS

Well... I managed to see what signal EVSE shows to Cp line. And to my surprise it was 56% PWM not 26% as i imagined. This forced me to add additional variable PWM_sig so that i set limits to my current calculation. First i read PWM_signal from byte3. Then i check if signal is less than 6% or more th...

Re: Driving mechanical speedo from CAN

I'm guessing the OP has a cable driven mechanical speedo rather than an electronic one? Sure! Then you need one DC motor and halfh bridge for 12V. AND you need to test how much RPM you need from the motor for full dial. I am thinking one simple DC motor https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32856061964.h...
