      Why the heck are you installing the adapter into the leaf first. I would put the adapter on the end of ccs connector before I plugged it into the car. Delta units take a while to start and you should hear the leaf heap when it is going to start.

    This is great for accraine. Ironically in the UK we are not really short of Chademo, and AC chargers are everywhere, but we do know there will come a time. At the moment in the UK we have a huge growth in CCS2 Tesla chargers open to non-tesla drivers. They are very cheap compared to what else is common, and very fast so they free up fast. I might get one of these even though I am not really stuck for Chademo.

    • @nomadichippie

      I’m going out to meet him again this morning to do a few more charges at a couple more chargers before he heads back and I too I’m gonna save a little bit of money I think and place an order as soon as possible. This made me so happy because, it worked at every single charger. I really want the one that I purchased to work but it’s just not working one out of every 50 charges. Mine works the one I went around with Patrick yesterday testing from Europe works at every charger.

    • @wesleymagoogan9685
      @wesleymagoogan9685 Місяць тому +1

      My experience (in the UK) is that Chademo is comparatively rare, and getting rarer. I had to make the choice of selling my Leaf or investing in an adaptor. I chose the latter, and bought one from AutonLaturit. It works, and my "charger anxiety" is vastly less.

    That seems awesome! I don't fully understand how this works. Do you buy the adaptor from Nissan? Or do you get it from a different place?
    I was looking to buy a cheap Nissan Leaf and drive it from Tampa, to Los Angles, never been in an EV before, sounds fun. Yes, I know the Leaf is the worst road trip EV, no cooling. But still cheap. It has 66% of the battery life left, has 8 bars of health. The "A better route planner" says I can't make it on Chademo, or level 2. Maybe the CCS adaptor will help with that?

      It was not the Canadian version for some reason. I was thinking that unit that I was going to be hanging out with Patrick testing was the Canadian unit it is not. It was the European one I found out. They have a CCS one unit that we went around and test yesterday in this video and also going to be doing a little bit this morning. And it worked at every single station With no issue one time there was an issue where they needed to create some for more real fast and that only took maybe four minutes to put on the unit and then get it working the rest of the day and when it worked flawless

Rapidgate and terrible weather ate up my 50 mile buffer to reach the next fast charger down I75 turning a 12 hour drive into a 16 hour drive. I was lucky I made it to my destination at all. >:(

    • @nomadichippie
      @nomadichippie  4 місяці тому +1

      There’s a couple tricks you can do as long as something is touching the steering wheel. You should not have to always hold the steering wheel like if your knee is under it that’s how I first started doing it, but then went and started messing a little bit with my computer when I would have it connected to the Chato adapter testing and just shut that off but if you’re not gonna hook your computer up the best way is just set your seat in the right position and as long as your knee or something is there you’re good or you could even go to the truckstop get one of those things that go on your steering wheel that rotates kinda like a tractor wheel it’s like a Little ball of pressure on the wheel and then it tricks the computer thinking that you’re touching it

    The problem is, that it's hard to tell whether the failure is the adapter, or the charge station itself. Sadly public fast chargers are only about 50% reliable. (Tesla superchargers are much more reliable, but they're the exception, not the rule)

    Volkswagen AG holds a patent on such a device, issued in 2018. The implications are obvious. All such devices are prohibited by EVgo and EA under their membership agreements unless supplied by auto OEMs (Nissan and Mitsubishi in US, mainly). If you damage a $150,000 charger or your car by using such a device, the device mfg is going to be beyond the reach of US law, and your auto warranty and car insurance is not going to cover anything here.
    Whether you call them Canadian or European or Chinese, they are all going to be made in China. The manufacturers need to get them on the Nissan/Mits parts lists; I suspect very difficult.
