[S10-EV] S10-EV Digest, Vol 127, Issue 19
Re: Lithium Conversion I keep seeing Rich Hatfield's question on the no wakeup function of his Li
Pack ever since he installed a replacement battery blower. It the lack of a
response the result of no one having a verifiable answer or was there a
reply which I don't understand in my state of ignorance. If I end up
keeping my truck because either a) no one will give me what I think it's
worth after all I have invested in it or my Li-Ion battery in the Rev-EV
catches fire like the 3 in the last 3 weeks have done in the Tesla Ss and I
end up with no RAV4-EV at all. BTW the battery in my RAV4-EV purchased in January is already down about
10% from its charge levels when new. I used to get 101 miles out of a
regular charge and 132 miles out of an extended charge which I only used if
i knew I was making a trip of 100 miles or more and wouldn't be able to get
an opportunity charge. Now it's 89 miles and 112 miles respectfully for
normal/extended. This seems a bit abnormal but I will discuss this on the
RAV-EV group before I call Cabe Toyota to whine. Best to all, Gar Harris On Thu, Nov 7, 2013 at 10:13 AM, <[email removed]> wrote: > Send S10-EV mailing list submissions to

Pack ever since he installed a replacement battery blower. It the lack of a
response the result of no one having a verifiable answer or was there a
reply which I don't understand in my state of ignorance. If I end up
keeping my truck because either a) no one will give me what I think it's
worth after all I have invested in it or my Li-Ion battery in the Rev-EV
catches fire like the 3 in the last 3 weeks have done in the Tesla Ss and I
end up with no RAV4-EV at all. BTW the battery in my RAV4-EV purchased in January is already down about
10% from its charge levels when new. I used to get 101 miles out of a
regular charge and 132 miles out of an extended charge which I only used if
i knew I was making a trip of 100 miles or more and wouldn't be able to get
an opportunity charge. Now it's 89 miles and 112 miles respectfully for
normal/extended. This seems a bit abnormal but I will discuss this on the
RAV-EV group before I call Cabe Toyota to whine. Best to all, Gar Harris On Thu, Nov 7, 2013 at 10:13 AM, <[email removed]> wrote: > Send S10-EV mailing list submissions to
