Re: Nissan Leaf BMS

yeah, i meant the 2017. one over 100k miles was going for $14,200, but someone snatched it up before me :( not that $15k isn't 'a lot' of money, but in the context of things, bolt would have 3x the range of my "hacked up" leaf, with a full trunk, all the safety interlocks in place, liquid-...

Re: Nissan Leaf BMS

yeah, i agree. sorry to disappoint, i have decided not to pursue the project since i can buy an older liquid-cooled battery electric car with almost 400 km range for very little here in the US. and i would also not be able to sell the leaf if i modified it substantially. safety is also a concern. P...

Re: Nissan Leaf BMS

i have contactors, 150A fuse hardware, 3-port can bridge, a cabin 12V switch for enabling the aux pack connection, the BMS and the wiring harness. only thing that i'm missing is a current sensor. i'm seeing them on ebay for around $130; does anyone know of a cheaper source? are they just a fat resi...

Re: Nissan Leaf BMS

okay, so based on hearing that the current sensor is identical between the leaf's 12V and 400V battery, i purchased this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/143647194866 as it is identical to the one on my leaf. saved about $100 :) will let you all know what i figure out the pinout to be. it's 4 pins, but the...

Re: Nissan Leaf BMS

Yesterday I did the famous 'blue smoke' trick on one of the (all white ports) LBC's by accidently connecting the rear 48S battery stack WITHOUT the interconnecting cable causing some fumes and burned diodes :-( I have created a conversion cable for connecting a second 48S stack to the last 2 connec...

Re: Nissan Leaf BMS

hey all, i'm fooling around with what appears to be a grey/black BMS (2015) and a white wiring harness (2011). i'm planning to install this BMS in my leaf's trunk as an extender with a home built 21700 NCA pack. around 48 Ah, 96S. i'm aware of all the wiring differences and will do my best to get th...
