Embellishing on David's response >They're still right where they've been since 2007: http://evdl.org/archive/ <
If (for whatever reason: ingested deleterious chemicals, etc.) you find yourself unable to remember how to find the official evdl.org (nabble) archive (got bookmark?), the major browsers have a built in find feature, so just type in evdl where you would enter the URL (address), and links to the site will come up. Clicking on them, the main evdl.org page has a link at the top dead-centerthat takes you straight to the official (nabble) archives. While the other evdl archives one could use are unofficial, I am glad they are there as a secondary resource. It seems the evdl (nabble) archive pages (main and including the EVLN one I post the EV newswires to) were not released to the search engines. So, when using a search-engine, the unofficial evdl archives come up. Lets take a worst case scenario (you're still hung over or stoned, etc.) and you can not remember to just type in evdl. You can use your favorite search engine (google, yahoo, etc.) to search for the topic you want from any archived evdl post, just put evdl at the beginning of your keyword search. Here are some examples: evdl state Leaf battery evdl reset Leaf battery evdl Leaf battery balancing That last one https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=evdl+Leaf+battery+balancing showed an evdl post that reminded me that pack-balancing should be done first if one wants to know how truly healthy their pack is. Meaning, what if a leaf EV'r has taken a trip that used L3 a few times to 80%, and a total pack-balancing has not occurred, when compared to what was described in http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.recreation.cars.evdl/103878 EVLN: Offset Supercharging degradation w/ pack balancing For me, I would want to take the time to discharge the pack down to a safe point by the time I got home, and recharge it slowly until its designated full point (SOC), then use the aforementioned tools to take a kWh capacity reading. Then I would know what I really have (it would take more time and effort, but for me the reading would be more valid). Perhaps the driver could take a before and after (total pack-balancing) capacity reading and note the difference (how much total pack-balancing made a difference)? For EVLN EV-newswire posts use: http://evdl.org/evln/ {brucedp.150m.com} - For some reason I can't find the archives. So here is a question. I'm under the impression you can get into the Leaf system to determine battery state. What tools do you need and has anyone gotten a new battery using this approach.
