    Solution for 12-volt battery dying after 10 days?

    I left my RAV unattended for 15 days and it started right up. I would be interested to find out how long the 12volt battery will last if nothing is left on (I don't mean neg terminal disconnected). I can imagine a 12v battery on a dealer showroom would get lots of use, since people are opening...

    SoCal EV Meet Up Saturday, June 27, 8am - 11am, Santa Ana

    I think I can be there. I can't find the Android App and definitely will need to charge because I am 70 miles away. I have Blink and Chargepoint cards.

    Range Chart

    Thanks, It has a similar data collection device as my home automation device, but a standalone data reporting. Looks like lots of good data for a price.

    50kWh???

    This is an interesting conversation to me as I compare the data from my VW conversion and my RAV. For my VW conversion I charge to 80% of capacity and never go below 20% capacity at the bottom, So I have a usable 60% of my total pack capacity. I constantly have to be aware of AHrs consumed so...

    Range Chart

    Excuse my ignorance, what is a "TED"? For my VW conversion I found some useful Amphour meters but none translated to miles like my RAV does. One displays on my Android and used the GPS to give me Amphrs per mile. I have to do the inverse calculation to compare it with the Miles per KWhrs that...

    Map of Rav4 EV Owners

    Apparently all three of my attempts were successful since I am shown three times in Hermosa Beach. You can delete two of them. The most accurate one is near Pacific Coast Highway at 5th St.

    Member Introduction

    Hi I am Rick and I purchased my RAV in early October and was also the first one sold. My dealer is Santa Monica Toyota and there were 5 people ahead of me, but they all deferred when the car came in and I got the call. They have one of the largest allocations based on their hybrid sales. I...

    Map of Rav4 EV Owners

    My little beach city of Hermosa Beach has four free public chargers. I used them extensively before I had my EV Link connected. they are still a convenient place to park when having a cup of coffee or a drink and the parking is free. I would be up for a meet up. I tried to enter my data on the...

    Odometer miles and range miles are not the same measures

    Yesterday I drove 100 miles and I started out with a range of 93 miles. I was driving conservatively and this morning after an overnight charge, I had a range of 108 miles. I could not figure that out until I read a post on another forum that said the range is calculated using your most recent...

    Odometer miles and range miles are not the same measures

    I saw one review where the car got 120 miles of range and on the Tesla forum a poster got 128 miles: http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/showthread.php/4259-The-New-RAV4-EV/page81?p=208739&viewfull=1#post208739 I am currently experiencing a different issue. The maximum range after I charge has been...

    Using the Entune Apps

    It took me another trip to the dealer to get the Entune App figured out. With their help, and a service contract number that they had to give me, we got it going and it allows me to monitor the charging of my car while I am upstairs in my apartment. Apparently this is a trial service and...

    Toyota 240 Volt UMC

    I am not sure 40 Amps is really needed. If I have a fairly depleted pack and put my RAV on the EV Link, my car is fully charged by the morning. I have an EV Link by Schneider Electric which I bought at Home Depot for $750 and installed it myself. I charges at 30 Amps which is more than...

    Dealer training

    When I took delivery of my car last week it was the first one that this particular dealer had sold. After signing the paperwork I left to return the rental car I had been using. As I walked out to the parking lot I noticed that they were plugging my new car into the EVSE. I thought to myself...
