    Fuel tank for diesel heater

    Now that my heater has arrived, I have been contemplating fuel tanks. For convenience I would like the absolute largest tank I can fit. For those of you running a fuel heater, how big is your tank and where did you put it? I have seen the video where the tank is just zip tied under the...

    Any tips to NOT damaging the main battery?

    What frowned upon (but not warranty-voiding) practices should I stay away from to prevent untimely battery death? Let her freeze up really good in the winter on zero charge? Or?

    Ultra cold weather range

    Winter is coming. It's already dropping to 0 degrees (c) here at nights. And for a good chunk of the season, we will sit between -20 / -25 with some days as low as -40 and sometimes a solid week of -30 Currently live 15km from work. No problem with Level 2 charging there. No L2 at home yet but...

    What will happen if we "force" AC down the charging port?

    So..... From what I understand, the EVSE is turned on by the car by a resistance (voltage) . Basically the car tells the EVSE when to open/close the relay contained withing to let the AC flow. What would happen if the EVSE didn't shut off when the car requested it to do so? Would the car...

    Viper remote start successfully installed.

    Installed a Viper alarm/start combo into my '12 today. Works fine and dandy. Of course by remote start, I mean "ready" mode. So if you want to turn on heat or AC without being plugged into the charger, it can be done. Of course it will suck battery juice like madness! Also have smart start...

    Ha! I just made a coast/neutral button!

    I used to be concentrating on regen. But after reading here I switched more to coasting. I like E/B modes, but it makes it more difficult to switch to neutral to coast. So, I made a switch that switches to neutral from any gear! The switch drives a couple of relays. When not pressed...

    CAN messages for pre-heat / cool and charge start/stop delays

    Has anyone looked for the CAN messages to engage pre-heat/defrost/cool the car while plugged in? That remote is big and has very low range. I am installing a typical "remote car starter" with ~5000ft range from its fobs as well as cellular remote control and tracking. These units have...

    Cold weather folk..... Heated windshield?

    For all those living in cold areas such as myself...... Any interest in a heated windshield? Over in Europe these are common on many vehicles, but are generally limited to high-end brands here in North America. (Like Jag and Land Rover) I actually work at a ford dealer and developed one for...

    What are all the dead switch-panels for?

    I have the base radio and no USB down on the bottom. So I know what that's for. But what about the other ones? Being in Canada we have the "wide" car. There are switch knockouts on each end of the dash. Curious what would go there? I read that the dead panel beside the traction control...

    12v output current?

    Good day. New here. Just bought my 12 today. Does anyone know the output current of the DC/DC? I’m looking to add some high drain 12v loads to a larger battery. I need to know if the Converter can keep up.
