Anyone have an unused Prius inverter they'd like to sell? Hoping to get it faster than via ebay.

I have used Auris inverter dissassembled to fit control board on it. It is in working condition but currently i dont currently have time to mess with it...
I also have Yaris inverter which i cant use for charging since its main cap is not rated high enough for comfort.

I took off their OEM control boards and i currently sport some openinverter control board.

Johanes,

Try here:
https://allegro.pl/listing?string=PRZET ... RIUS%20III

You can find it for reasonable price - around 500 zl=<100€ and shipping is fast.
I received it in 3 days in Croatia. Shipping is around 200 zl.

Great, might come back to either of this! Swapping the power stage should be sufficient.

But for now I'll try something else: wired the inductor to phase 2 of MG2 so I can just use boost mode charging on the STM32.

Experiment failed. Since the converter is on the same DC bus as the inverters, the entire bus is shorted. Also the DC/DC converter is no longer working for some reason. So will have to replace the whole unit.

That is strange... I would expect that they don't ship to Croatia but do to Germany. :)
Ask seller directly and you should be good.
