| − | This method exploits the [[State Of Charge Drift]] portion of the vehicles battery management routines in order to accomplish [[State Of Charge Manipulation]] with the use of a [[Battery Tap Emulator]]. The result is the ability to effectively change the target [[SOC]] from the normal 3/4 to 1/4 which is more useful for [[PHEV]] applications. The [[Prius EV Mode]] is also utilized to further enhance the use of the additional electric energy provided by a larger [[Prius PHEV Battery Options-CalCars]]. A [[CAN]] device is required to acts as a [[Prius PHEV User Interfaces|Prius PHEV User Interface]] and management device. Such hardware/software will need to follow logic similar to that laid out by [[Prius PHEV Pseudo Code]]. Ron's first [[PriusPlus]] conversion used early proprietary [[EDrive]] technology. Later conversions will use [http://www.hybridinterfaces.ca hybridinterfaces] [[CAN-View]] Scantool which is currently available only for 2004 and 2005 Prius. You can take a looks at [[Prius PHEV Photos]] which are available to help visualize parts of the conversion process.

| | + | Notes: |
| | + | :(1) Assuming <35 mph, 210 Wh/mile (260 Wh/mi from grid) [http://www.greencarcongress.com/2005/08/solarpoweraugme.html ref], 1.5 miles with stock pack |
| | + | :(2) During which the mileage is on the order of 100 mpg. Shows range as stated by organization. |
| | + | :(3) Safety in case of major accident |
| | + | :# Many Lithium cells will burst in flames if penetrated. However, phosphate cathode LiIon cells (such as [http://www.valence.com/ Valence] and [http://www.a123systems.com/html/company.html A123]) are flame-proof. |
| | + | :# SLA batteries contain lead and sulphuric acid but are spill-proof |
| | + | :(4) From discharged to the point the pack will no longer be used in PHEV, to fully charged (per Orbital, SLA require 8 hr taper -- done at least once every 3 days -- after near full charge, to reach 100% and prevent sulfation) |
| | + | :(5) Because the DOD of the stock pack is limited by the Prius, only about 0.3 KWh of its energy is available (US). It is assumed that additional batteries are limited to a DOD range of: |
| | + | :# SLA: 0% down to 50%, |
| | + | :# Litium 0% down to 90% |
| | + | :(6) HiMotion states 50 km (30 miles) pure EV range. Yet 4.3 KWh calculates out to 15 miles. |
| | + | :(7) No = original tire well is covered or occupied by new battery pack |
| | + | :(8) PiPrius notes. PFC40 charger doubles at the DC-DC converter between packs.<br>BMS is a Rudman Reg Mark 3 on every battery. It is fully protected on charge mode and discharge mode.<br>The BMS is programmable with a laptop, with no security locks (open source). |
| | + | :(9) Conversion service: done by the PHEV conversion company, at their location.<br>Conversion kit: done by the owners in their hometown. |
