With over 41,000 Level 2 public chargers in the U.S., and at-home charging using a 240-V outlet with a Portable Charging Cable, finding the "where" to charge is as easy as the "how." [[153]] With this method, it takes 7.5 hours to fully charge a 40 kWh battery and 11 hours for a 60 kWh battery. [[1316]]

We know that at one point on our journey, we traveled 99km, at about 100km/h on the expressway, and used 72% of the battery. Using that data as a starting point, and assuming that drag force has a uniform effect on how much power we used (and all else being equal), we can make some very rough back-of-the-envelope calculations about how much energy (kWh) we would have used per 100km at different speeds.

Buying multiple modules and want to create a series? This product is often bought with our copper Nissan Leaf Bus bar kit. The kit contains three copper busbar segments that allow you to wire a 10p14s battery bank using Nissan Leaf modules.

The Nissan LEAF has model years that range from 2011 to 2022 and battery sizes that range from 22 to 62 kilowatt hours (kWh). Here is a simple overview of how the battery sizes aligned with model years. Batteries replaced by Nissan under warranty are replaced with 40 kWh packs.

The battery warranty for a Nissan LEAF is 8 years and/or 100,000 miles. Now, 8 years does not sound like a long time, until you compare it to the 5 years that Dodge covers in its trucks. Suddenly, 8 years sounds a bit better.

Replacing an EV battery is more like replacing an engine than swapping the 9 volt battery in your smoke alarm. Replacements can be dangerous without the proper equipment. First of all, batteries are heavy, and secondly, they store a lot of electrical energy. Improper handling could result in electrical shock.

It is important to note that not all battery replacement procedures involve replacing the whole battery unit. Sometimes mechanics can identify defective modules, which are components of the whole battery unit, or defective individual cells, which make up modules. They will then simply replace the defective modules or cells, saving the vehicle owner plenty of money.

Finding a LEAF battery will be the hardest part of the battery replacement. There is very high demand for old batteries, and most have to be sourced from junk yards or totaled vehicles. The LEAF battery itself can cost as little as $4,500 for an older, 24 kWh pack, but with the scarcity, they may cost as much as $10,000. Larger packs - either the 40 kWh or the 62 kWh, cost between $8,000 - $16,000. The cost per kWh can run between $187/kWh at the lowest end, and $258/kWh. Remember that these prices are artificially inflated due to strong demand and very low supply. Often, inexpensive battery packs can be found on third party marketplaces.

Labor to replace the battery is generally much cheaper than the battery pack cost and may be under $1000. However, if you are refitting an older LEAF with a larger battery, labor costs may be higher and there may be additional parts needed.

Your options for LEAF battery replacements typically come down to going to a Nissan dealership or working with a battery replacement specialist. Like buying an oil change in a combustion engine vehicle, the dealership service prices tend to be steeper.

A 2011 LEAF can be found for just a few thousand dollars and can provide a good, if local, EV experience. However, the initial battery pack had only 24 kWh capacity and 73 miles or range, and Nissan did not install any temperature control in the battery management system. This meant that many early Leaf batteries suffered serious degradation, and many early Leaf drivers had to get replacement batteries or live with severely curtailed range. However, the early model, which comes in SL or SV trim, is reliable, safe, and a pioneer of electric vehicles.

The 2013 LEAF was the next iteration, which included a more affordable, base-trim S model, or the SV/SL models with upgraded 6.6-kW charger, cutting charge time down to four hours with a 220V source. The upgraded charger is an optional add-on for the base model. Production for the 2013 Leaf was also moved to Tennessee, bringing EV production to the US. The LEAF still lacked liquid cooling, however, making it a risky choice for hotter climates due to faster battery degradation.

We are pleased to introduce 16 Blade, a complete replacement platform for the Nissan LEAF. Built from the ground up by EVs Enhanced, 16 Blade has been designed using the optimal module layout with the confines of the original Nissan battery pack enclosure. 16 Blade uses a highly advanced active thermal management system and is compatible with a wide range of current cell chemistries. 16 Blade is not in yet in production, but we are working hard to bring the GREEN variant to production as soon as possible.

However, for a finished 16 Blade GREEN pack, we are NOT aiming to undercut the retail price of US$11,225 that Nissan USA charges for a new, but inferior 40kWh battery. Our focus from the outset has been on making a superior product with a better design leading to improved performance and a longer life-cycle.

It is also important to remember that the above price guide is BEFORE the trade in of your original battery pack. The trade-in price offered will depend on the condition of your original pack, but taking this option will reduce your final cost of an upgrade. Because we re-use the original battery enclosure when creating a new 16 Blade pack, there will be no option to buy 16 Blade without trading in a pack in exchange. However, there will be options to keep your original modules/cells repackaged into a more convenient form factor for stationary storage applications.

16 Blade will be made available for all 24kWh, 30kWh, and 40kWh LEAF models from 2011 through to the latest 40kWh 2023 models. We are currently not intending to offer battery upgrades for LEAFs originally fitted with a 62kWh battery due to physical mounting differences. The first model to receive 16 Blade support will be the 2013 onward 24kWh and 30kWh LEAFs shortly followed by the 40kWh ZE1 LEAF. Support for the original 2011-2012 model LEAF is planned to follow, but support for 2011-2012 cars should not be expected in 2023.

16 Blade uses the original battery enclosure from Nissan allowing it to bolt straight it into the vehicle. However, there is some minor installation required in the motor bay to accommodate components in our thermal management system which includes a heat exchanger, pump and piping among other things.

Thanks to its highly effective active thermal management system, 16 Blade can achieve consistent DC fast charging rates even when performing multiple fast charges in a single day such as on a long road trip. The GREEN, BLUE and RED variants all have different maximum charge rates, but the GREEN variant will be limited to a fast charge current of 125A like the stock battery is. However, because this peak current can be held up to 80% SoC, the charging time is reduced compared to a stock 40kWh LEAF battery which tapers quickly above 50% SoC.

Because we re-use the original battery enclosure when creating a new 16 Blade pack, it is most efficient to have the pack enclosure modifications and assembly completed relatively close to where the end customers are. The original battery modules can then be re-purposed but stay in the country they are already in. Otherwise you end up shipping a lot of donor battery enclosures back and forth around the world which is unnecessary and avoidable.

Companies that are serious about purchasing 16 Blade in kit-set form and doing final assembly in their own country will be able to purchase a single complete battery pack from us without a trade in pack at an elevated price for evaluation purposes. This is to help them gain confidence in the product and thoroughly test it under their own local conditions before deciding to make a commitment to buying manufacturing equipment and completing training.

The only problem with the car is the battery. At first, a fully charged battery was enough for as much as 100 miles, but that went down over time. Now, the car can go only about 45 miles on a single charge.

On a very simple level, lithium-ion batteries work this way: Lithium ions go back and forth in a liquid, and in and out of the positive and negative ends of a battery. Lithium ions going one direction means charging the battery and storing energy; going the other way means discharging the battery and using the energy to power something, such as a car.

Berdichevsky remains interested in battery technology, and left Tesla to start his own company, Sila Nanotechnologies, to work on one of the big remaining problems for battery researchers: energy density, or whether a battery can store more energy without getting much heavier. A heavier battery means a heavier car, and more energy needed to make that car move. Sila Nano is working on this with Daimler, the company behind Mercedes-Benz.

Another problem is the lifespan of lithium-ion batteries. Unwanted reactions inside the battery can produce gas, leading to battery degradation, says Yuliya Preger, a chemical engineer at Sandia National Laboratories who works on batteries. 2351a5e196
