Love the fact that you posted these videos about the failure in order to maintain 100% transparency to current and future customers. This type of honesty and confidence in your product deserves props. I am glad (unfortunately) that it was installer error to set everyone's mind at ease that it is not the lithium cells but instead just installation error. This video inspires a lot of confidence in your product and customer service.
Agreed.
lol all the little birds walking around
Me too.
Thanks for ur video.
Thinking about getting a old prius and putting lifepo on there.great job.learning alot.
Love the transparency
Great videos! What are your thoughts on risks? Ive see online where people had a litium battery in their 2nd gen Prius and it caught on fire or at least overheated and smoked out the car. I believe they were in cold weather. What are the risks and does your setup have any kind of safety features to keep it from overheating? How does in go in cold weather?
Oh no, I was just about to order one! Hope the error is fixed
The temperature hole problem has been resolved 4 months ago :)
@@hybridapp7158good to know
@@hybridapp7158 And if it had not been the person that drilled the hole bigger could have been a little more careful.
Hi I just bought a brand new pack from you, a cuestión if in a few years one cell goes bad, you just replace with a new cell or has To be an old cell ??
Very nice.
Jjjjjjjjjj you are the best.... un abrazo desde republica dominicana
Why did all the 8mm nuts turn brown when they went into the vinegar bath overnight?
Nice video and info. Thanks ! In the app.. "delta SOC" . I check my car with your app and see also "0.00". The app show me the SOC and i see many times at the phone to check it.
What is the high.. the low.
I know when the SOC goes down, that one cell goes down. Therefor the "delta SOC"" is helpful. How can i see a actual "delta SOC" ?
delta SOC should always be 0, if it is bigger then 0 the error code will pop-up soon. What I was referring to in the video was delta voltage, or "Vol Diff" on the App.
Since is still new, what caused the failure?
Hello, is there a Voltage equalizer for mixing blades
Works on nickel cells or only lithium thanks
since NiMH have total of 28 blades instead of 14 lithium blades, you are gonna need two sets of equalizer, FYI.
@@hybridapp7158 ok i thank you
I can't order equilizer in the UK what shall I do? I need to equilize NiMH hybrid battery full
Is there a school or a training center for learning everything about batteries and charging
There is no control, security by temperature? Is it not dangerous to neglect this situation? It cannot explode as has happened in many lithium batteries in the event of a production failure, so on
Hello, is high temperature dangerous? Thank you
Hi Mohamad, high temperature always dangerous, 60 degree C is the max without damaging the cell.
@@hybridapp7158 Thank you
Is their a way reach you directly . I want to offer these to my customers. I have a only prius shop
feel free to email me at support@NexPowerEnergy.com
Very cool! How to you setup, wire the icharge 4010duo?
I use our new product "equalizer" and RC charger (iCharger) to balance all the blades and put the pack back into the car. New video about equalizer coming up soon.
@@hybridapp7158 cool，waiting for it
What is the name of the song used in this video when you are taking the battery apart?
I knew it was important to not drill to far. Why these guys do this?
probably drank too much red bull, lol
Once the package is installed, do you have to balance the cells after a while? If the battery had to be removed every so often, it would be a serious inconvenience.
balance circle inside every single blade, self-balance.
lol positive negative. Brother they are all positive. It's a series battery.
Hello, can you write the Facebook link, thanks?
Do you upgrade the fuse in the service plug?
What? What fuse? Service plug? The big orange thing that you pull out? What are we talking about?
Why is that battery pack failing so fast already? Arent they supose to be new tho?
cell punctured by installer, watch video for detail
If you take time to watch the video, you will see that the person who installed the battery accidentally drilled too deeply into the module when modifying the pack.
That is not a manufacturing defect. That was an error made by the installer.
Since that time, the modules have been updated so that no additional drilling is needed by the installer.
Therefore eliminating the possibility of this installation error happening in the future.
Great work, and transparency from NexPower/NexCell/Dr. Prius.
