    Please do yourself a favor and ask Patrick if he will set you up with an affiliate link, just for you. Having one of the first working units in the US you deserve a small commission for sales you cause. Or ask him if you get 5 people who mention you during sale, they will give you one. Somehow, you deserve a working unit right now.

    • @nomadichippie

      I would love one of these units. I’m gonna save my money for a couple of months and probably get one hopefully before September or something it’s gonna take me a while to get that kind of money back up again after purchase one I have been testing.

      Sure, you may get a no, but quite often you get what you want if reasonable. Ask what it will take for you to get one free now. You played tour guide and primary promoter so there is no shame in negotiating one free product.
      Hell, tell them you will do one promotional video a month for the next 5 months. You are going to be charging anyway. You deserve this and can prove it to them by views on these Chademo videos you've been making. Thank you, and get one!!

      @nomadichippie  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, the cross country trip is going to be put off a little bit because I was supposed to leave two weeks ago on a 1900 mile round-trip, but I wasn’t gonna do it until I got my adapter working. My adapter never worked so I had to change my plans and not go on the trip Now that this unit is working. I am waiting to generate enough revenue doing Uber and Lyft to purchase product and then summer starts to wind down and it cools off a little bit so I don’t have to worry about battery overheating. I will be taking a trip. I might take a couple five or 700 mile trips, this summer nothing further than that until the weather starts to cool off

You could feasibly leave Orlando Florida and drive to Los Angeles California and back in something that only gets 60 miles. Yes, it may take a month to do that, but you could feasibly do it Wait I think I might have a future lol

      I could tell you right now I am not kidding you it worked great 100% of the time it just blew me away. I guess that’s the problem with being an early doctor. I purchased the other brand that doesn’t work when I should’ve just held off and waited for more people to test it out, I see something that I think might work from somebody on TH-cam. Come to find out it didn’t work after I got the product. Now this company comes out with an actual working product that works almost every single time. I mean this one every time I’m sure there’s gonna be a time it might not work but then all you do is send an email and they send you a new firmware and it will automatically work. It just was so mind blowing This right here when I purchased my first product I can’t wait to get some money up and purchase this thing. I’m looking around my home right now inside the RV to see what I can sell on Facebook to get the money really fast lol

    Very exciting! So I see Chargepoint and EA compatibility, and those two by themselves are almost enough to push me over the edge and order the adapter. Forgive me if I missed it, but has it been tested with Shell Sky or Shell Recharge? Because once you add those in, we've accounted for almost all of the CCS chargers in my part of the midwest.

    Hi Hippie, Im in Canada in Vancouver BC, and I have a 2015 Nissan Leaf. I have the ability to charge at home on a 20A plug, which works fine for me, pulling 16A on my charger. I do have a few Chademo chargers around my area and most do work, as Chevron has rolled out their charging service for a decent cost and supports Chademo and CCS at all stations that have them. Having this adapter would open up my options and Patrick if you see this I would love to know more information on cost and shipping to my area. I may not need it right away, though it would really open up my options if I would ever need to travel farther than my local area. I have been able to get to Chilliwack with one charge stop on the way, and charging while in Chilliwack, for context its a 85 KM drive. I bet I could have gotten to my destination without charging mid way though to have this adapter it would open up my options when on road trips

    Something I just learned is that the standard for EV charging across the US will be NACS (Tesla). I'm sure most know about this, but it just become knowledge to me. So, where does that leave us Leaf owners? Standardization should have been dealt with on the onset. After all, when you fill up a gas car you can go to any gas station, and this should be the same situation for EVs . . . ALL charging station. If they don't do something about standardization soon, the EV market might wither away in the future. Tesla does supply A/C destination chargers at hotels, for example. But you will need a J1772 adapter to work on those chargers (level 2). OK for overnight charging. Nothing as yet for use at a Tesla Super Charger (I think). Honestly, I hope this nonsense is sorted out when I'm ready to purchase another EV. I wonder what it would cost to completely change out the charging system on a Leaf to the new NACS standard. That would be great for Leaf owners who want to keep their cars.

      I travel a lot with the leaf. For the longest time, I was trying to find my niche. I was going to the Philippines, Singapore, Hawaii, Bahamas, and trying to travel stuff. I’ve tried the theme park videos. I’ve tried gadget and electronic videos trying to find my perfect niche and finally, I settled on traveling with my niece going places and showing charging as I’m going places and doing things, and that’s kind of I do these testing videos are just part of that and so I usually try and show a little bit more stuff that’s around the areas when I’m doing videos I might take and show a little bit more of the charging and I appreciate the feedback

      It is a bit too much to justify in the UK I think, £882 when you add VAT. I've not personally had any issue finding CHAdeMO connectors yet, though in the future and if it was less expensive I'd be very tempted, if only to have access to open Tesla chargers at much better prices.

      @@m33ksr These are being sold from a UK address, so should be VAT and import duty included. I suspect they are just reselling the ones from Alibaba, where ordering 100+ gets the price down to around this, when those are added.
      I'm a little wary of people operating out of a place offering 1 day, 1 person rental terms though.

      @@m33ksr OK, that is very naughty; UK prices are supposed to be advertised with VAT included, UNLESS they are aimed at business users.
      Add the dodgy nature of the address, and that is another one off my list.

    Now.... if there was only some kind of solution that would actively cool that battery, then the LEAF would be a viable long distance EV. I like the LEAF, but getting throttled to 11kw on a DCFC is not acceptable.

      @@nomadichippie I'm not sure about the second gen, but when we replaced the OBC on our former 2012 LEAF, we found the cooling lines literally going past the battery to get to the OBC in the back. I wanted to face desk when I saw this. Even worse, there is an EV version of the Nissan Versa out there that does have a liquid cooled battery. Nissan really made a poor decision in skimping on cooling. I wonder if the 2nd gen LEAF also has cooling lines going to the back of the car? I could see this as a "relatively" easy job and tie into the cooling to the sensors for the OBC and running a tapped loop with pump into a cooling plate in the battery pack. This is assuming there isn't a sleeping piece of code in the BCM to wake up make use of.
