Guess the degradation over the past 50 000km (30 000mi)?

Don't skip to the end of the video! I'll know!

Wow. Deeply impressive! Meanwhile on the main traction battery..!

[SheepShearerMike]

It is looking like a very good battery life then, should outlast the car.
I see you got a name check on the new episode of TEN from Transport Evolved, hopefully it will lead to more orderes. Hopefully i will eventually buy an EV myself in the next few year then might have some extender batteries added to that. Keep up the good work.

Capacity depends greatly on the discharge rate; testing at 0.5C definitely has an effect, how much depends on the internal resistance of the battery. You can only claim they there was not degradation if you’d done the same test before.

Most impressive is the 4:3 screen. Battery is also ok.

Hi only just found your channel and working through the previous episodes I have a 2015 24KwH with degradation already showing itself with only 24, 000 miles and I am based in the UK have your done any checks to see if it’s possible to fit 30 or more KWH worth of your cell packs in place of the Nissan fitted version in the standard traction battery tray. Your work so far has gone down the same path as I had been designed working but you have found a much better cell for size.

Muxsan, what kind of modules are you using for your upgrades?? Are they hybrid car modules or industrial?

[danielwilliams]

Just got a damage windshild replaced on the nissan env200 by an auto glass replacement company and I just released that the wipers are forced down and never move at all. Before I go back enquiring on what may of happened, I would like your opinion since you seem to be the most experienced hands on technician on you tube with the nissan env200. Thank you

Would be interesting to see how a main 24kWh battery looks on this V leaf spy. Mine reports 20.1-20.4kWh when fully charged

[marsrover]

Nissan leaf hacking should be getting popular soon. They sell for very cheap near me with heavily degraded packs. (Intense year round heat kills the packs)

[ktrontrontron]

What generation are those cell leaf modules? they dont look like the standard "rectangle tuna can" style i'm used to. Thanks! Always great to see your postings!

[AtouchOfFury]

Hey, firstly I love your channel but is there any chance you could post of your community so we can connect with you? I have chance of a 40khW pack from a 2018 leaf and would love to have it in my 2012 leaf. I'm Uk based I'm also on facebook Paul Bulmer York. You are an EV Legend thank you for your channel

[lshrd]

Do you anticipate any issues with the two different packs degrading at different rates? Or, does the second parallel pack simply have more power drawn from it, so the voltages remain constant between the new and old packs?

[gorazdnovsak]

Hm... I was thinking. In a old video you did figure out that main battery discharges first and then the extender... Could that be a reason since you have battery close to full. Shallow discharge cycles...

[janekw.]

Just stumbled over your channel very interesting work you have done! 👍
Is there any way to contact you directly?

[jdphotograph]

Where did that battery come from. What type is it ?

[nimalweerasinghe]

where i i can same battery for nissan leaf

[amunderdog]

Battery abuse? I understood from years ago; A rechargeable did best if ran low before recharge. I can remember some people had a test stand thingy. They would run a new battery as close to zero as possible then recharge it; I think I remember they would do this a few times before putting the battery into service.
Something about a memory the battery assumes.
Has this changed? Did you try the other way? Recharge a pack when it really does not need a charge, day after day.

[MrLambert]

Seems like I bought a pretty good product :-)!

[GoingOffGrid]

Great test! I have a 2012 leaf and my regen is almost non existent with 8 battery bars, is there a way to get it working again ? also I have a 28Kwh battery I plan to put in the trunk, will this show on how many Km I have left on the car? I just subbed!

[bluezzer]

I think there is a flaw in your logic. TLDR; I suspect you are comparing current capacity against rating, not the original capacity. That makes your results meaningless. Surprising given how technical your channel has been and part of the reason I like it.
My reasoning; there is no way the capacity went up by 0.5% (unless it’s within the error range of your instrumentation). I think it was simply over capacity initially as most Lithium cells are when new. I tried to find your initial test in case it was done before I subscribed, but couldn’t find it.
Of course pls correct me if I’m wrong!
