Re: Is anyone interested in selling their car?

What kind of battery do you consider healthy? The ones I tested had SOH between 83 and 89% and clearly depended on Lifetime Discharged Energy (kWh). Only one vehicle * had an SOH of only 60%. How do you calculate SOH on the RAV4 EV? With OVMS, I can see the BMS reported stats. This is my car after ...

No, really we just need more chargers. When there are reliably working DC Fast Chargers every 50 miles, you don't have to have so many rules.

Re: ChatGPT gives driving advice

I hadn't tried https://abetterrouteplanner.com/ but I just did. As an anonymous user, it provides some unreasonable default values. For example it shows charging to 94% in one case. Not going to happen. The chargers I am familiar with have slowed down to 12 kW or less at that level of charge, and m...

Agree. Especially since I got them to add the RAV4 EV as a selectable vehicle type. I have the OVMS updating the ABRP cloud in real time, just like the BT dongles and software do on other vehicles.

Re: Map Update method/resources?

You can buy the map update from Toyota. However, I doubt you will find it worth the asking price. Mine has never been updated since new and I don't miss it. If you live in an area that has had a lot of construction with new roads and subdivisions, it might be worth it, but I prefer to just use my ph...

Re: Touchscreen of the Navigation System doe not work

This is a mainline Toyota part with special software inside. I would guess that any screen of similar age with the same size from another Toyota model would be interchangeable if you are willing to separate the screen module from the rest of the head unit. Keep in mind that I've never disassembled o...

Re: Hello to the Remaining Rav4 EV Owners Out There

I am an original owner and I still see them regularly in Silicon Valley. In fact, I saw one "in the wild" today.

Re: HV Battery Contactor Actuation

The BMS voltages are available on the Tesla CANbus. This is one of the screens on the OVMS . https://i.ibb.co/0mq9ySX/OVMS-Cell-Monitor.jpg I also put another misc. info screen of RAV4-EV specific parameters available from the Tesla bus. I have not dug into the Toyota bus yet. https://i.ibb.co/fQhjn...
